Act 1 Son!!

            Prospero is a professional manipulator! yes it is true that the most prominent example given from what we have read so far that most completely shows his complete lack of mercy he gives to get what he wants is obviously what he did to that boat through one of his spirit slaves...i think Ariel is some sort of a a spirit anyways. But the reason that Ariel is his slave is because Prospero holds the story about saving him over his head and often reiterates the traumatic story of his previous' masters abuse. He continues stringing him along by promising him freedom, he says that  "I’ll set you free in two days." for some reason i have a feeling that he's been promising him that for a while to keep him around to do all of his dirty work. But he doesn't only do that to one of his servants, he also does that almost exact same thing to Ferdinand. He is the designer of a mass of webs designed to keep all of those who are a part of his intricate chess game looking to him for the next move. He's so good at this game that he even brings his own enemies to the island...i don't think its for a tea party either. So as he carries out his plans of which he only knows, he even uses some of his own servants against others under his influence to manipulate the events which will ensue, to his liking. An example of that is when he tells Ariel to, "Go disguise yourself as a sea nymph. Be invisible to everyone except yourself and me. Take this garment, put it on, and then come back here. Hurry, go!" The web in which we see being spun in act 1 is already ridiculous, i'm excited to continue reading to see whether he can stay one step ahead of everybody and come out victorious and sit on his throne once more; or will he just get tangled in his own web and loose everything once more?
