Escaping Eden

This thesis explores the world of Eden, Hell, and Heaven through the eyes of the young protagonist, Sage. She completes a journey through many different trials, suffering multiple injuries as she slowly pieces together that the ruler of Hell is her brother, Bryce. Sage is greeted by numerous characters such as Adler and Evelyn, along with other souls in Hell. Sage eventually finds herself back near Heaven’s gates after her trek through the underworld, but something feels different. Her brother ultimately tricks her into believing that she has made it out alive, but he never allowed her to leave the pit. Because Sage does not want to lose her brother again, she gives into the sinful ways of Hell and finds herself staying there.
