The Hero Journey
Mystery · Archetype
Follow your bliss.
— Joseph Campbell
The monomyth—the hero journey. Call, threshold, trials, return.
I. The Call
Adventure summons
The hero receives a call.
The ordinary world is no longer sufficient.

II. The Threshold
Crossing
Separates known from unknown.
No return to innocence.

III. Trials
Ordeals
Test the hero.
Each ordeal transforms.

IV. The Abyss
Lowest point
Death—literal or symbolic.
From the abyss, rebirth.

V. Return
Boon
The hero returns transformed.
The journey completes.

VI. Monomyth
One story
One story underlying many.
The pattern is universal.
