Epiphanyyyy

“...a blot upon the earth, from which all men fled, and whom all men disowned"

At this moment the creation realizes what he really is. Up until this point, he knew he was different, but he did not know how different. Once he starts learning the language of the cottagers with Safie, he is able to comprehend more of what is going on around him. The creation is on the outside looking in. Metaphorically and literally. He is on the outside of the cottage listening to the language in order to gain more comprehension. Metaphorically, he is on the outside because of his grotesque nature. He is the only one of his kind and no one has seen anything like him before. This is the point where the creation accepts who he is and realizes that he will never be accepted into society or be able to assimilate with them.
