Rhetorical Question - Frankenstein

"His tale, and the feelings he now expressed, proved him to be a creature of fine sensations; and did I not as his maker, owe him all the portion of happiness that it was in my power to bestow?" (105).

This line spoken by Victor asks himself whether or not he should make a companion for his creation. He understands his creation's reasoning and tries to come to terms with himself for making another one. Victor has been severely affected mentally by his creation since day one. First he stops caring for himself just to make the thing, then he undergoes frequent depressions about what he has done. Every time he does something bad thereafter, Victor again blames himself and beats himself up about what he has done. The happy young man from the beginning completely vanishes into a depressed individual who has nothing figured out anymore. It would be a very difficult decision deciding whether or not to make another creature, especially when being threatened. Victor always seemed to seek answers but unfortunately never really found any.
