Heading: Hyun Sun Park, Block E Question: Why do you think that John and the Hill people consider the Gods in a very superior way? Title: "...Is this our Dead Gods?"

(Thesis)The unclear ancestry and evidence of the Gods have increased John and the Hill people's curiosity, elevating the God's superiority even higher. (Context)They believe the Gods are so supreme that they have no power to "interrupt". It is the high spirit that the Gods obtain that frightens the people to approach. Everything around the Place of Gods are "forbidden" and nobody has dared themselves to be brave enough to take a journey. (Quotation)The brave young man, John, believes the Place of Gods as the others believe before the experience: "It is forbidden to cross the great river and look upon the place that was the Place of the Gods-this is most strictly forbidden. We do not even say its name though we know its name. It is there that spirits live, and demons-it is there that there are the ashes of the Great Burning." (Analysis)The unknown knowledge about the Gods have created fascinations among the people; later, false rumors spreads about the greatness of the Gods. Rumors are contained with exaggerations and imaginations that have created numerous conjectures in each generations. Now, contained with multiple ideas, the Hill people's belief towards the Dead Gods are all "refreshed". The Gods have become an undefinable spirit. (Conclusion)However, as the story ends with the great success of discovery made by John, the Hill people's belief can be questioned. They would start inquiring themselves: the "exact" history of the Dead Gods.
