I - Departure
3 - Supernatural Aid
"...in so far as the hero's act coincides with that for which his society itself is ready, he seems to ride on the great rhythm of the historical process. 'I feel myself,' said Napoleon at the opening of his Russian campaign, 'driven towards an end that I do not know. As soon as I shall have reached it, as soon as I shall become unnecessary, an atom will suffice to shatter me. Till then, not all the forces of mankind can do anything against me.' "
Joseph Campbell
The Hero With a Thousand Faces
