as to have supreme power. Victor brought the creature into the world and did not accept his creation. Horrified by his creature, Victor abandoned him. Victor said: "Unable to endure the aspect of the being I had created, I escaped" (85). At this point we see how Victor rejected his responsibilities for his child. He never questioned where his abandoned child was and he even wished that the creature were dead. Victor kept a secret about the creation of his monster from everyone; even his best friend Henry. This decision led to the destruction of his family. William was the monster's first victim. A few months after the creation of the monster, William was found murdered a small child still in his prime. Though the murderer was supposedly deduced to be Justine, Victor Frankenstein knew the real murderer was his creation. Victor's silence led to the execution of the innocent Justine. Victor didn't want to say to the judges that Justine is innocent...he was silent. Victor only said: "I believed in her [Justine] innocence; I knew it. Could the daemon who had (I did not far a minute doubt) murdered my brother also in his hellish sport have betrayed the innocent death and ignominy?" (91). The creature should not be blamed and be held responsible for his actions and misfortunate, for he had no control over his misfortunes. He was brought into the world with no one to give him knowledge, support, and guidance. He was completely deserted by his creator. When he tried to make friends, everyone either ran away from him or tried to kill him. When he saved a little girl from drowning, he was shot (118). He provided firewood daily for the De Lacey family, and they regarded him as "a good spirit" (88). Yet when they saw this "good spirit," they deserted their house and the monster, and never came back. Felix " dashed me [the creature] to the ground and struck me [him] violently with a stick" (96). The being was given no choices regarding these incident...
