Fernando’s weakness is introduced into the story.

Fernando has his love of wine, but other than that, he is a “respected” and “feared” person. Meaning he isn’t really a bad guy.
The narrator meets Fernando and he is somewhat drunk and dressed like a jester.
He tells Fortunato that he’s on his way to see Luchesi, who will be able to tell him if the Amontillado is the real thing.

Trying to seem sincere the narrator acts as if he doesn’t want to go but Fernando insist and that is just what the narrator wanted.
Getting him even more drunk the narrator continues with his plan
Fortunato says he should be getting back to “Lady Fortunato” and the other people.

The narrator agrees and carries out the deed killing Fernando
When the narrator gets no response after calling Fernando’s name, he shines his light in the hole, and then hears “a jingling of bells.” That’s when he puts in the last brick, covers it with plaster, then sticks a bunch of bones on top of “the new masonry.”

    Montresor, the main protagonist, appears as a dangerous and brutal psychopath “I given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will” and “he did not perceive that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation.” (Poe 144). As time is passing by in the story, Montresor reveals how obsessive and insecure he is. Montresor decides to get revenge and kill Fortunato just for a mere insult, and only because of his weak and unconfident personality. The insult and the other thousand injures mention before could have been just part of Montresor’s insecure nature. Furthermore, Fortunato does not expect that Montresor is seeking revenge or sees him as a threat. Besides, Montresor plays a great role of a caring friend until the end of the story. Montresor even refers to Fortunato in several occasions as his friends or “My poor friend ” (Poe 147) making Fortunato doubts of…

    Through his words and subsequent deeds we can also identify the trait of sadism in Montresor. “A wrong is redressed when retribution overtakes its redresser,” claims Montresor. He continues, “It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong.” Montresor's aims are clear. Redress his perceived wrongs, punish the man who he feels wronged him, and make himself known to his offender as the one who has killed him. And while doing so, make him suffer in a way equal to the pain Montresor must have felt when insulted by Fortunato.…

    Due to the revenge that arises from jealousy and pride, the Montresor, the protagonist, is so deeply involved in his thoughts of revenge from Fortunato, he does not even state why he seeks out revenge and the motive behind it. Pride, jealousy and the concept of killing someone go back to the time when people first came around. In the article, by Renee, she states when thoughts of revenge are developed in a person’s mind, it causes him to go insane and there is no time for second thoughts (1). The very first sentence from the story is “The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge,” this clearly depicts the major theme of the story, enrooted in Montresor’s mind (DiYanni…

    "The thousand injuries at the hands of Fortunato I had borne as best I could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge" (Poe, 173). Montresor is so convinced of the righteousness of his convictions that he "must not only punish but punish with impunity" (Poe, 173). Montresor also states how he must not fail to "make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong" (Poe, 173). Montresor's words prove how his prideful obsessions have deluded his mind enough to believe that Fortunato's wrongs justify his agonizing death. Furthermore, Montresor believes he should go unpunished for his…

    In the story, Montresor states that Fortunato “...accosted me with excessive warmth, for he had been drinking much-” (1) Fortunato’s pure clumsiness was surely to be accounted for one of the reasons he let himself be murdered.

    The next day I made the worst choice of my life. I decided that I would take my revenge on Fortunato be by tripping him in school. As I walked down the corridor I saw him coming along the opposite side. I moved in and stuck my foot out he fell and hurt his lip on the impact. I was ecstatic my plan had explicitly worked. “That was for yesterday!” I yelled back as I laughed heavily down the corridor. I regret not telling his parents about the gelato incident instead, because from that day on my life was horrible. He mocked me everyday…

    The phrases used by the narrator to demonstrate hyperbole is “THE thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.” This line makes me feel less sympathetic toward the narrator/murderer. I feel less sympathetic for him since why does he even wants to seek revenge over an insult. Although the narrator states he was been insulted by Fortunato numerous time as he exaggerates…
