" Natural philosophy ... my fate" (Page 20)
This is the first hint that something will go terribly wrong for Victor. The author is using foreshadowing to inform the reader that not all will go well for Victor, particularly in his obsession with natural philosophy. Mary Shelley used the word fate, which is defined as "an inevitable and often adverse outcome, condition, or end" is a word that is most often viewed in a negative light, which hints that the fate of Victor is not a happy one.
