Free will - Santiago has a choice to decide the choices he make and because every action has a reaction it will impact his journey

# data[].attributes.body
I would say it is free will that is guiding him because even though he is told like he is gonna do this or that he is making his own choices and could quit whenever he wants to if he wanted to so it is his choice in the journey.

Free will. Although the omens did help him make his decision. It was his decision to go through with it. The omens just helped him see another point of view

I think Santiago is at this point in this journey by free will because it was his destiny to find this treasure now he is making the decisions to get there like not going back to be a shepherd after he was done working at the crystal shop.

# data[].attributes.body
Free will, Santiago has learned many things from his past and he wanted to give up and go back to buy sheep again but he chose to continue his search for his treasure and found new things/people like Fatima.

free will- he chose his dream but later on he says that it might not be his dream anymore so he has other choices to go to if he doesnt want to follow his dream anymore

Fate

I believe its fate because in the book it said "the mysterious chain that links one thing to another, the same chain that had caused him to become a shepherd, that had caused his recurring dream, that had brought him to a city near africa, to find a king, and to be robbed in order to meet a crystal merchant" which basically means that this happens for a reason.

Both, Fate and free will, has brought Santiago to this point of his journey because the changes in his life and the paths he takes allows him to realize where he is destined to be.

I think Santiago got to where he is in his journey right now by fate because as he's working towards his personal legends it was kinda like fated for him to find his true love within his journey.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe Santiago got this far because it’s his fate. Every choice he made was linked by his fate just like how he managed to meet the Englishman.

# data[].attributes.body
Santiago got to his current point in his journey with destiny. It was out of his control that he was able to go on the caravan during the same time that the Englishmen did. Additionally, the Englishmen talks about how if it were up to personal choices or free will of going to the pyramids with no knowledge from each other than their journeys would be much more difficult.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Santiago is still being pulled by personal/free will, because even though he is being pulled by things he is new to, he is choosing his own path by his own choices and has developing characteristics throughout his journey.

# data[].attributes.body
Santiago’s own choices are what brings him towards his personal legend. Santiago is given the choice into following these omens and not forced to do so.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that all of what has happened is fate. Even the choices that were made were meant to be made and all that was a part of destiny. He says that he makes a choice and the rest is a mystery.
