Hero's Journey

A Crook and A Father Two stories explained by C.D.H. In this unit for my Humanities core class known as Stories, I learned about the Hero’s Journey. The hero’s journey is a set storyline that fits most main characters, meaning: books, movies, T.V. shows and even real life. The journey includes several things: A character is chosen or saute out to go on some kind of adventure; whether it’s emotional or literal, they will face challenges, gain allies, be made new and eventually be able to enjoy the fruits of their labor. You may be wondering why I am going into detail about this and the reason would be because I constructed two “Hero’s Journeys”. Kaz Brekker is a gang lord crook who would do anything for the right reward. Anything good or bad for money, power, or knowledge; nothing and no one was safe around him. He was an orphan who was tricked into poverty. Growing up in the streets and slums of Kerch he learned many things like sleight of hand and lock picking. This practice e...

Fable Fun

In this unit we talked about Aesop's fables, panchatantra and how fables are constructed. I wrote my fable about three animals, a rabbit, a wolf and a squirrel. The rabbit is a trusting and forgetful sort that can't understand that some friends are not real. The wolf is a deceitful, sneaky predator that takes advantage of the young rabbit. The last but most important character is the squirrel who cares about the rabbit but can't get him to understand. In the unit we talked about how fables and short stories usually have a symbol that conveys a meaning of some kind. The symbol in this story is a string that once removed reminded the rabbit what it was supposed to mean. Real Friends Aslo is quietly talking with Grey. They are both standing in a large oak tree. This oak tree sits in the middle of a bright creek, bright because of all the shining stones twinkling in the sun or mirroring the moon. The odd pair of a rabbit and a wolf were good friends, often chatting about w...

Origin Story

Recently I have been looking into origin stories of different religions from around the world. These stories have not been limited to the creation of the world but also of individual things. The reason I have looked into these stories is for a class that implements history and English called Stories. During this class I was asked to write my own origin story about anything I wanted. In the end I chose to write about the creation of all living things. In this “Origin Essay” I have tried to use descriptive language in writing. I want to tell about exactly how something looks, how the characters feel and how things might seem if you, the reader were there. The story itself makes me think it could be an actual myth with stories of heroes and monsters to make you love or hate either side. All of seems as if it could be in a theater or arena showing itself on a world stage. I believe it could grow to a story as something so great. Without further introduction here it is Life From Emotion. ...
