Creature and Victors Connection

I would like to focus on the part of the story that focuses on equality. From the creatures first encounter with humans, he thinks himself equal. He is shown however that he is not equal, he is indifferent. The creature constantly searches for equality and feels himself worthy, which when proven to be a fantasy, ruins the creatures hopes and dreams, making him a vengeful, wretched soul. From then on, the creature strives to bring his creator down with him to an equal level. The creature kills all of Victors dearest friends and loved ones and brings down the world around him. Ultimately, this makes the creature and Victor equal, which was the goal of the creature all along. It is only until the end when both these men realize the error of their ways, when it is too late.
