"My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die." This quote is so soooo relatable to the situation that Hamlet finds himself in, although revenge will probably come easier to him as he doesn't have to search for his father's murderer for twenty-five years of his life like Inigo. In this classic story Westley and Buttercup reunite after years of lost love and fight the mythical kingdom of Florin.
Oh how I am in awe of this story, such romance, adventure, and fantasy. I find myself in such a similar situation as to Princess Buttercup. Although the surface story may seem like a prince saving a princess I feel that is not all there is. Princess Buttercup is also saving him. When Westley returns as the man in black I believe that Buttercup probably feels the way I am at this very moment. I feel as if Hamlet is not being himself, he has been overtaken, consumed in something else and it leaves me "so affrightened!" (2.1.74). Westley does this to find information and I really hope that in time, Hamlet will reveal his thoughts to me Further, the king and prince are trying to tear Buttercup from Westley. Although I believe my father has my best wishes at heart, at times it does feel like he is ripping love away from me. "My lord" (2.1.83) does admit that his judgment is not always correct. He admits that with "better heed and judgement" (2.1.108) we could have just avoided this whole relationship drama fiasco. This plot of Inigo's revenge is quite concerning to me. I know that Hamlet is concerned with his fathers death and has come to really dislike his uncle. I fear he may seek revenge and this revenge will bring on paranoia that I may have already seen him "as if he had been loosed out of hell" (2.1.81). There is so much happening with the death, the funeral, the marriage, the potentiality of war with Norway, my brother now gone, and Hamlets strange behavior that "I do not know;/ But truly, I do fear it" (2.1.82-83).
