Reading: Ramayana Part C
For my story this week, I know I am going to continue the Avatar the Last Airbender theme. I want to keep the character names, for the most part, and also as much of the main events that I can. For notes over the reading, I am going to focus on keeping main points and then marking the little details from the original that I want to include in my story.
The third part of Ramayana starts off with Sita being captured. Ravana is the one to take her and he tricks her by disguising as a poor old man. When Sita offers him kindness, Ravan reveals himself and steals Sita along with the ground she stood on.
*The fact that he took the ground as well works perfectly for setting him up as an earth bender.
Ravana kills Jatayu when he attempts to rescue Sita. Rama and Lakshmana track Ravana to rescue Sita and go through many adventures on this quest. At one point, Sita had dropped her jewelry so Rama could find her and Sugriva gives it to Rama.
Overall, I really liked some of the parts of this section. There is a lot of adventure and little side quests that happen along the way and I am anxious for Rama to get Sita back in the next part.

Hi Caitlyn. I actually had a chance to read your story in your project post earlier. I thought it was exceptional. I am glad that you will be continuing the avatar theme for future stories. I think it is a great way to engage the reader with a bit of pop culture that we are more familiar with, all while telling stories of the indian epics. Great job!
