Subhadra announced she was going to have Arjun’s baby named
Abhimanyu. Arjun told Subhadra how to escape chakravyuh and the baby learned
every word but because Subhadra fell asleep Arjun didn’t complete the story and
Abhimanyu didn’t hear the end of the story. I think this is a really
interesting concept that the baby absorbed all the information Arjun was
telling Subhadra even though Abhimanyu wasn’t born yet. This reminded me of
some things I’ve heard people do like playing certain types of music or reading
stories to unborn babies.
For my story I would like to use this concept but elaborate
a little further. I think it would be interesting to have Arjun tell step by
step instructions to the baby about where he has hidden treasure. Instead of
Subhadra falling asleep I want the baby to hear everything and then when she is
older to follow those instructions on a journey to the hidden treasure.
Plot Outline:
- Arjun is nervous because he is at war and decided to hide his fortune far away. His wife Subhadra is pregnant with Abhimanyu and Arjun speaks to her and the baby describing where the treasure is.
- Abhimanyu is born and remembers everything her father told her about the treasure
- When she grow up she sets out on a journey to find the treasure.
- She travels through the mountains, across the ganges and meets Shrek and Karna in the cave.
- She eventually finds the treasure and brings it back to her family.
Characters:
Arjun is a father who hides the treasure and explains how
his daughter can find it. He loves his family and is very protective of them.
Abhimanyu is the daughter of Arjun. She hears his story
before she is born and when she is old enough she sets out to find what Arjun
has left for her. She is strong warrior like her father and is able to complete
the journey.

I think that this story sounds really interesting. It seems like you have a great understand of where you want to take it and hopefully you will be able to write the story in the near future!
ReplyDeleteI also like how you set up your story planning post. It is very clear in the sense of your ideas that you do have. It is nice that there is a section for plot outline, and characters and your own general idea of what you are thinking.
