Ranger's Apprentice Book 2 (Character)

Well I'm about half way threw the second book, and I am seeing a lot of character change that happened to Will(the main character). Will has gone threw a lot for example, Will, Halt and Gilan were attacked by monsters. Another thing that happens Horace starts traveling with Will, Gilan and Halt.

One character change is when Will's master, Halt, saw him not acting normal and started stressing about how he missed his shot twice, and if it wasn't for his horse Tug, he would have all most got killed by a Wargal(a type of monster).So Halt talked to Sir Rodney the battlemaster, about Will's problem and what he should do about it. Sir Rodney than told Halt that Will has been spending to much time with people not his age. So Sir Rodney suggested to him that he should take Horace, an apprentice at battle school that was Will's childhood enemy. When they met this time they didn't fight. Another character change that Will has gone threw is that he and his old enemy were starting to became good friends. I know this because in the book it says,"He glanced across at Horace, the childhood enemy who had become his friend, and wondered if he felt the same bewildering conflict of emotion."

Another character change Will has gone threw is stress. Because at the beginning of first book Will learns that a ranger should never miss a shot, because rangers don't really do well with close range combat. Because rangers are like warriors of the shadows so you really won't see a ranger go in front of someone and stab him then walk away, because they want to stay hidden. So they shoot the target from a long range. If your still confused with why they can't miss its really because if you shoot someone and you miss then they will notice your presence and shoot you back. Well apparently Will rushed his shot and as a result he missed twice and he turns into a nerve wreck. I know that's the character change because in the book Halt says, "He had a bad time of it when we ran into those Wargals last week,' Halt said. 'He thinks he's lost his nerve."
