The authors often use figurative language that involves some kind of comparison between different things. We distinguish such types of figurative language as metaphor, personification, pun, simile, symbolism and hyperbole. For example the author takes the terms “as” or “like”, it means he uses a simile. The author uses the metaphor when he creates the direct connection between objects. So, you know that the metaphor and the simile are types of figurative language. The answer is <span>figurative language.</span>

How will the desert change for Fatima one Santiago is gone
jenyasd209 [6]

Hello, I think that, I could help with your question.

All researched <3

─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───

The alchemist leads the boy through the desert with the falcon on his shoulder. During their stops, the falcon flies off and returns with rabbits or birds to eat. They travel for a week, speaking little. On the seventh day, the alchemist sets up camp early and tells Santiago his journey is almost finished. Fatima and Santiago agree that his leaving is the right thing to do. Instead, it brought the scent of a perfume he knew well, and the touch of a kiss — a kiss that came from far away, slowly, slowly, until it rested on his lips. The boy smiled. It was the first time she had done that.Santiago tells the desert about his love for Fatima, and it offers its sand to Santiago to help the wind blow. It says that Santiago will also have to ask the wind for help. A breeze picks up as Santiago asks the wind for help. Fatima is proud of her heritage as a 'woman of the desert. ' She explains to him that desert women understand their men must go exploring in the desert, searching for treasure. More than understanding, the desert women are 'proud of their tribesmen. The boy, Santiago, is robbed in Tangier after he gives a man money to buy camels. What happens when Santiago reaches the pyramids that makes his heart burst with joy? He is beaten and robbed and realizes he is alive! There you will find a treasure that will make you a rich man. It's this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie. During the old king's explanation of what a personal legend is, he insists that Santiago not believe in "The World's Greatest Lie." The old king says this: "At a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie.”
