In "Jabberwocky," the protagonist embarks on a quest to slay the Jabberwock, a fearsome creature representing evil. This aligns with the myth of the hero, who often sets out on a dangerous journey to face and defeat a powerful adversary. The boy's bravery and determination to confront the Jabberwock, despite the challenges and dangers he faces, further emphasize his heroic qualities.
