Final Project Ideas

The article I picked

http://www.read.gov/aesop/022.html

 

The story I decided to choose is “The Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing” It’s a very short story about a wolf having trouble obtaining his prey so he decided himself as the prey.

1st scenario or concept I want to update the setting, I want the new story to take place in the future where artificial intelligence exist and machines and robots are a common thing. Instead of a wolf disguising himself in sheep clothing in order to kill sheep, I want it to be the wolf killing evil robots so this wolf disguises itself as a robot by wearing armor, hiding its identity and killing robots.

For my 2nd scenario or concept is updating the mood. I want it to be a love story about a wolf and a sheep. Instead of a wolf disguising himself in sheep clothing in order to kill sheep, I want it to be the wolf loves one of the female sheep so this wolf disguises itself as a male sheep, fooling the female sheep into liking him.

Final Project

When everyone thought the nine-tailed fox was killed but no she was just injured, it took centuries to get her wounds recovered after she fled away failing to seduce the Emperor Toba. Now she doesn’t want to control anyone for power or be a ruler of anything, starting a new life in Tokyo but adapting to Tokyo alone seems a bit difficult for her since she’s from the past when Tokyo was still known as Edo, so finds her ways to learn about the modern world.
