The Odyssey Part Two Quickwrite

Normally, if someone has been absent from home for many years, when the person think or feel upon returning home, the person will shout, announce his/her return in public, and thank to the God. The person will celebrate with a party, appreciate and embrace his/her family members for waiting so long, and ask his/her lover "Do you still love me?". In The Dark Divine, Daniel has left the Divine family for a dark secret. When he returned to the family, he couldn't face the family bravely and was despised by his friends. He didn't have a sweet, happy-ever after reunion, but he had to respond to his disappearance. Therefore, I think that whether the returning is joyful or gloomy depends on why does the person leave in the first place. If the person leaves for fighting for pride, honor, and beloved country, he/she will be treated as heroes or heroines. However, if the person leaves for escaping the bad things, he/she will be suspected and kept aloof with the family. It's quite painful that people couldn't reunite with their family with happiness, so I think we all have to learn to forgive the mistakes that the people have done before. We aren't saints at all and we'll make mistakes.
