Earth sea archetypes

generally there is a hero in the fantasy genre
someone who can battle and triumph through all the wickedness
also i've noticed that most fantasy stories involve magic of some sorts
usually when i think of fantasy and magic i associate the character most likely to dwelve into the arts to be the mentor, guiding and all seeing.
theres a love interest who always hinders or pushes the hero in some way and then you have the shadow
the shadow is the darkest of all evils which gives the hero a reason to go on the quest.
in earth sea the shadow comes after, and is in himself but also part of the kingdom he lives in
