When
Daniel first meets Rosh, he believes that he has found the perfect leader. He admires the rebel
insurgent and wants to believe that he is indeed the messiah. Daniel's entire personality is
based upon his hatred of the Romans. He has watched his father and uncle be crucified by them
and has seen his little sister succumb to madness due to their heinous acts. Rosh gives Daniel
the means to kill as many Romans as he can, and this is more than enough for Daniel to live
meaningfully.
However, Daniel eventually begins to have his heart changed by
seeing Jesus and his message of kindness. While Jesus understands Daniel's feelings, he insists
that violence simply begets more violence, and that love is the only true way to change the
world. In time, Daniel rejects the dogma of Rosh and makes the change to follow
Jesus.
