Reading Notes: Myth-Folklore Unit: Persian Tales, Part b

assassin

The story that seems the most interesting to me was “The Man Who Went to Wake His Luck”. There are many things I can do to this story to make it better un my own way. First, I would modernize some of the aspect of the story such as making his brother a business man rather than a horse farmer. From there I would make his luck into an accountant that keeps his books strait. Then I would tell have the man face different people based out of the modern business world. I would first have him see a man trying to open a new business. After speaking to his luck, the solution for them man will be to get a loan from a bank. He would ask me to be his partner. The next person he would see is a restaurant owner not getting any customers. After speaking to his luck, the solution would be to create food the customers like not just himself. He would ask me to be his food taster. Then I would come across a man sharply dresses man. He would say ask why my assassins’ business is not getting off. After speaking to luck. The solution was to get a contract on a fool so that you show you have the skills to perform. He asks me to give him 500 dollars and I would. That night he kills me while I sleep and make it look like and accident. This is how I would adjust the story and make it my own.
