Hope

Hope De Pinto is born into an affluent, famous, and very successful family. Over time, unexpected events cast gloomy shadows over the fame, fortune, and prestige of Hope's family and the city of Avenice that they founded. Fate places the responsibility on Hope to turn the tide of socio-economic decadence and hopelessness and regain his family's former glory.

Overwhelming events beyond Hope's control threaten to derail his determined and concerted efforts. Rather than falling into a dismal pit of discouragement, Hope intentionally draws on hope to navigate seemingly insurmountable difficulties.

When it appears that triumph has eluded Hope, the virtue of hope itself guides him to see a guiding light at the end of the tunnel. This reawakens the previously dormant potential in Hope to challenge and overcome the complex hurdles that stand between him and the success he desires-because Hope will not be a victim but a victor.
