After Victor received the news of his mother he expresses, “… the void presents itself to the soul, and the despair that is exhibited on the countenance”(29). Victor was filled with misery after the news of his mother’s passing, which shows his true weakness as family. Even though Victor has been through many hardships, his overall powerlessness could be seen as his loved ones because it’s what the monster used to break him down mentally. If Victor didn't have a connection to family he would not have been revengeful against the monster because the creature would not have had an advantage over Victor. Therefore, without loved ones in his life, Victor would have been harder to destroy
