The Monkey King
The Monkey King
Note
it is a change of pace to deal with a protagonist that doesnt learn to be humble and remains over confident.
but then, maybe the protagonist wasnt the monkey king afterall, but a pebble. one capable of making waves bigger than they could ever know...
i like the theme of our scrolls still waiting to be written. a good reminder for when we let our mistakes and regrets get the best of us.
