Line 205:
* The marlin that nearly kills Santiago in ''[[The Old Man and the Sea]]'' is strongly portrayed this way.
* Martel is portrayed this way in [[The Elenium]], despite his betrayal of the Pandion Knights. Before the final duel, he espresses a similar sentiment about Kurik. {{spoiler|When Martel is killed, Sparhawk and Sephrenia both mourn over him, and Martel calls them "the only two people that I ever loved"}}
 
* [[Poul Anderson]] has a fondness for this trope. Many of his conflicts allow both sides a claim to justice, and even those that don't usually have sympathetic individuals or cultural traits on the bad guy side.
