Rasselas is twenty-six years old; he is the fourth son of the emperor of Egypt. He and other of the family line are kept prisoner in a beautiful valley of Amhara. He has ever wish granted him, is intelligent, well-versed, and wee taken care, but he knows there are many things missing from his life and he wants to find the,

Regardless that he has everything he needs, he cannot leave. Rasselas has come to understand that physical needs are not the only needs he has. He begins to meditate on what he feels he's missing but cannot name it...... so he begins to travel in order to find out the things that are happening beyond (in his dreams and imagination), and then he searched for escape.

Wors that characterize Rassela would be tenacious, curious, inventive, secretive.
