The term "plight" emerges across literary works to depict a state of hardship or distress that characters must endure, whether in a literal or metaphorical sense. In some narratives, it serves as a descriptor for physical misery or adversity—a character’s unfortunate condition on a riverbank or on a battlefield ([1], [2]). In other contexts the word is employed in more formal or even poetic registers, evoking solemn promises or emotional appeals, as seen when it is intertwined with themes of loyalty and marriage ([3], [4]). Whether highlighting social injustice, personal despair, or the ironic consequences of fate, "plight" consistently enriches the narrative by encapsulating the gravity of human challenges and by lending a timeless quality to the expression of misfortune.
