Reading Notes: Epified Krishna Section A

Source: Epified TV (India)

I think the story of Krishna growing up could be turned into a pretty interesting story. Specifically, I think focusing on a little child repeatedly defeating powerful beings and other accidents would be pretty amusing. I'd like to put a focus on people not realizing he's an Avatar, but rather continuing to come up with excuses for why he keeps avoiding these problems.

The original story for Krishna is a little weird at times, so I think I want to just lean straight into the weirdness rather than fight it to make it more normal. Make him defeat 100 ft demons with a song on the flute and other ridiculous things.

I actually really liked the Epified videos. They were just the right length that it didn't feel like watching each took very long. Had they all been together it would've felt like more of a time-sink, but having them all split up made the story much more digestible.

    Hi Cal. I also watched some of the Krishna videos. There really is some weird stuff in there; when I was reading the story online, I couldn't imagine Krishna as a toddler successfully fighting off huge demons. The videos definitely helped me visualize it a lot.

My Favorite Place, the Wichita Mountains

My favorite place is located in southwestern Oklahoma, near the town of Lawton. It is the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, in particular Mount Scott and Elk Mountain. These two sites offer incredibly breathtaking views as well as fantastic opportunities for hiking, bouldering, and rock climbing.  Mt. Scott Mt. Scott features a road that snakes its way up the small "mountain", culminating in a parking lot at the top. This location is fantastic is most likely what most people imagine when they think of the Wichita Mountains. It has gorgeous views of the surrounding area, including hills, forests, towns, and lakes, as well as plenty of spots to hike and climb. I have visited Mt. Scott countless times, initially just driving up to the top with my family, but eventually hiking up it with friends. It is a place that I feel very connected to, for reasons I cannot seem to explain. Whenever I hear people claim that Oklahoma isn't pretty, all I have to do is imagine the vie...

Week 2 Story: The City of Wives

Aves Andoran stood on the deck of a warship, loaded to the brim full of fighting men. He had grown up hearing tales and whispers of Ceylon, the Island of Goblins, and had vowed that one day, he would be the one to slay the Goblins. Now, he was leading the expedition that would put an end to that ancient menace. Rough Seas on Route to Ceylon (Source:  pixabay.com ) Seemingly out of nowhere, a massive storm appeared around the ship, and the waves began crashing into the hull of the ship, drenching the men on the deck to the bone. Through the spray of the violent sea, Aves saw the rage of the storm above, as massive bolts of lightning of every shade and color danced through the clouds. Occasionally, one would race down to the surface of the sea and explode with an unimaginable force. Before his eyes, a bolt of green lightning, cackling with wicked energy embedded itself into the deck of the ship, splitting the mast down the middle before rending the ship into pieces. Wh...
