I think the first or the second phrase works the best
In which conversation?
In what story?
These ROOT-WORDS are MAR, MARI, & MER meaning SEA & POOL. It comes from the Latin mare which means SEA. The SEA was of the greatest importance to the Romans. Mare Liberum, the open sea: Mare Clausum, the closed Sea: and Mare Nostrum, our sea which is now called the Mediterranean Sea. All the words on this list have a musical sound, from MERmaid to MARina. “The Ancient Mariner" sounds much more musical than “The Old Sailor" which means the same thing.
An example of a very effective villain who stands against the protagonists is Count Olaf from the book series <em>A Series of Unfortunate Events</em>. This series follows the life of the Baudelaire orphans. After both their parents die in a fire, they are sent to their new guardian, a man named Count Olaf. However, Olaf has no interest in caring for them. In fact, he only wants to take advantage of them in order to get their fortune.
The reason why Count Olaf is a good villain is because he contrasts the heroes in several ways. For example, while the heroes care about their family and friends deeply, Count Olaf is selfish and only cares about himself. This is demonstrated by the fact that Count Olaf does not have friends. He only has henchmen. Another reason is the fact that Count Olaf cares a lot about money, while money is not an important concern to the orphan children. Finally, Count Olaf is willing to commit terrible crimes and deeds in order to achieve what he wants, while the children are moral and responsible.
In conclusion, Count Olaf is a remarkable villain because he contrasts with the heroes, who are the Baudelaire orphans. Some of the ways in which he does so is by caring about himself and money more than he cares about anything else, as well as having very loose morals.
