SRIS

Supposing an ape who thought he was human went on a voyage to develop his self-confidence by proving he was capable of being human in the eyes of others.  The ape did everything he thought would be required of him to prove he was not only capable of being human but was a superlative human being.  Despite this, his self-exhibition only provided evidence of  uneven qualities.  His physical powers and fearlessness were marvels to behold while his emotional awareness was limited and frankly apelike.

He clambed forth with great hope in his eyes, fighting human battles for them and defeating evil, but the evil within humanity in its refusal to see him as worthy of equality and respect could not be extinguished.

He fought their battles for them but they respected him not.
