When I write a story, I want an emotion. If anything, I want to hurt my readers. I write such tales with "heroic" characters that I end up showing their backstory out of order.
I start from the prettiest and shiniest parts of his story, to finally, the beginning where it shows his roughest and grittiest side. With this idea, I give the impression of a good man, but when I show his gritty and bad side, it will probably make the reader feel betrayed. Like they thought they knew him but they really didn't

Figurative language changes the typical definition of words to add emphasis, or just make it sound more interesting.
