Even more importantly, her fate is interwoven with Mor'du's, because her breaking the curse on her mother also breaks the one on him. This means that her fate will directly affect it, and it will also weave with and affect those around her. Merida's fate is linked to the land because she is the heir of DunBroch, so she will be the ruler of it one day. In a way, we see both of these played out in the film. In Merida's voiceover at the beginning, after the prologue, she says that there are people who say that one's destiny is tied to the land, while others say that fate is woven together like a cloth, so that one destiny's intertwines with many others'. But even while you see that in the film, you can't overlook the fact that fate and destiny also play an important part in the film, and this is even shown with the inclusion of the will-o'-the-wisps and film's villain, Mor'du. As I had discussed in my previous essay, the focal point of Brave was the conflicted mother-daughter relationship between Merida and Elinor.
