In Peter S. Beagle's "Two Hearts," a character is praised for his heroic deeds, which include slaying dragons and defeating giants. The speaker reflects on his remarkable abilities to rescue those in need and solve challenging problems, elevating him to the status of a legendary hero. His feats of bravery resonate deeply within the narrative.

However, what truly sets him apart is not just his extraordinary accomplishments but his inherent goodness. The distinction is made that while many heroes may achieve greatness through courage, true heroism lies in being a virtuous person as well. This duality highlights the complexity of heroism and suggests that moral integrity is as essential as heroic acts.
