I could right a story about Rama and his brothers playing cricket in the streets where they grew up. This story would focus on the relationships between the brothers and their neighborhood friends. I was thinking I could weave in a lesson about sticking up for people when they are treated poorly. I could write a story where one of Rama's younger brothers who is not as good at cricket is picked on by some older boys. Rama would then come in and act like an older brother should.
I could tell this story in 3rd person with dialogue between the characters.

Story Idea #2:
In the original Rama Wins Sita story, Rama bends a bow that no one else could bend. In my story, I might have him display incredible skill during a field hockey game to win Sita. Sita and her father would watch him play with strength, speed, and sportsmanship.
I could try using first person during this story from the point of view of Sita as she watches Rama play.
Story Idea #3:
Rama is banished from Koshala in the Ramayana. In my story I could set it up where Rama was banished from sports. This would be something that Rama would struggle to get over, but eventually he would come to peace with it. His good character would shine through.
I think this story might be most effective from Rama's point of view. The reader might be able to see into Rama's feelings better if the story was written in first person.
