@kate Your welcome. 😊
At the risk of shooting myself in the foot, I wanted to use those tropes to showcase everything problematic with that mentality. ‘Chosen One’ used to be cool and fun and ‘anyone can save the world!’ used to be the message, but it’s gotten so overdone I started wondering what else they could be used for, or how they could possibly come about in a more realistic world. What if, instead of exploring courage, it was actually used to explore cowardice?And that is why The World Turned Upside Down is so cool. I love when people take troupes and cliches and things that make people roll their eyes, and turn them upside down. You did an excellent job…I’ll be recommending it! 💯
