In literature, the word “through” serves as a versatile connector that conveys both physical passage and metaphorical transition. It is often used to depict movement across space—whether characters traverse doors, landscapes, or even barriers to waking dreams as they pass through slumber ([1], [2])—or to mark the progression of time and internal change, as when one finishes a day’s business or wrestles with inner thought ([3], [4]). At times it emphasizes process or instrumentality, underscoring how events unfold under the influence of external forces or inner merit, such as divine mercy or natural inevitability ([5], [6]). In this way, “through” enriches narrative texture by linking tangible journeys with the abstract evolution of characters and ideas.
