Franky continues..

"Ay, sir, free enough for honest folks. Mr. Kirwin is a magistrate; and you are to give an account of the death of a gentleman who was found murdered here last night." (page 127)

Frankenstein at this point has already decided that he is finished with dealing with this monster situation. He has toiled over this new creation for many many hours and days, but he has realized that he would be more of a monster if he created another being. His problem is that he could not handle the grotesqueness of this new monster and he would not be able to tell if the new creation would like the original creation and vice versa. The female creation could even hate the world more than the male creation and he would not be able to tell what the outcome would be then. Also, Victor must have given them reproductive organs because he mentions them having more demon babies...which would just be wonderful of course. The dead would be reproducing...hm....

So the monster is at it again. One of the themes my group has been studying is depravity, or sin, and the monster who claims that he was once good has only been showing off his evilness. He has apparently killed again and he is framing his creator once again. He threatened Victor with the fact that he is more powerful than his creator and he will be with him on his wedding night because Victor destroyed his second creation and broke his original promise. The creation has zero remorse anymore. He does not care what repercussions could occur and he does not care about his creator and his well being. Basically, he is sick of being treated like a monster...but well...he is a monster. He is almost making the situation worse by actually acting as a monster now. The theme of depravity is prevalent in the story, but as I continue reading the end of this novel, I can see that sin will become more prominent and prevalent in the main ideas.
