Short story experience.

 My experience creating a short story.

It really was a fascinating experience to create a new story, although it is difficult to make it totally original because in the stories there may be elements or characters that are repeated.

In the case of "In The Heart Of Darkness" we take into account details of one of the most mysterious Native American cultures, the Appalachians, creating a story that takes place in the mountains that bear his name.

Using the idea of overcoming darkness, it makes me understand that it is something that can only be done through love and willpower. We cannot change others, but with ourselves it is enough.

The story is basically about Dakota, the protagonist, undertaking an adventure to overthrow evil, out of love for her people. Erela, a being of light, and the character I gave voice to, helps Dakota in his mission by giving his life. And in the end the evil manages to be overcome, although the pain of losing a friend invades the protagonist forever.

Actually, the process of doing the work together and each one adding more details was great, because the content of the story was enriched. Likewise, it was nice to share with my team despite the busy work schedules we have.

Anyway, since I was a child I hadn’t written a story again, but I liked living the experience once again, it reminded me of my inner child.
