Moral of the story Character transformation Punishment Fair or not The first moral of the story is the everything happens with a reason, God is always with you. There is a point of everything, everything has values. T There is failure, postictal or unhappy moment, they can make you grow and to be better. Accept it, don't fight it or blame others. He liminal space is not only a punishment, it also makes you wiser. You will never be alone, God, your parents and your friend are always with you like in the story "footprint". They carry and support you. The second moral of the story is God loves all his creature, all God's creatures are equal. The Albatross or the water snake are equal to human. At the beginning, the Mariner sees himself as the center of attention, he shoots the Albatross and blame the bird that it is the Albatross that bring the fog and mist. As his punishment, he and his crew were been put in the liminal space. After all the crew died, the Mariner tries to try to end the punishment, but he cannot. God says that he is nor the ready. When he saw the water snakes, he finally realizes that all God's creature are equal, the Albatross around his neck fells into the sea. After been release to reality, he has the glittering eye and became the messenger of god. He has to tell his story to others to release his pain and guilt, so that others will not make the same mistake. The Mariner suffer grave consequences because he killed God's messenger in order to draw the crew's attention back to him. He was jealous that the crew put all of their attention on the Albatross. He shot the Albatross in front of all the crew to showcase his power. He tries to blame the bird to escape from responsibility. He demonstrates great hubris here; humans want to control everything that is unpredictable. The Mariner and his crew are been put in to the liminal space, they will never witness the fading sun, or sunset. They will be relentlessly thirsty from the poisonous heat of the sun. It is torturous irony that they are surrounded by water, yet they cannot drink the salty water. God punishes the Mariner and his crew by allowing them to suffer the pain to demonstrate the consequences of disrespecting the natural world, including his creations. The Mariner's punishment for killing the Albatross is extremely fair because he has taken the life of one of God's beautiful creations because of his hubris, he wants to win back the crew's attention and want to showcase his power. He has to suffer in the liminal space. After the crew died, he is all alone and has no one to blame. After He come back to reality, he is condemned to perpetually relive his mistake and educate individuals, tell his "rhyme," about the consequences of not appreciating the natural world, thus remaining in a continual state of liminality.
