“ Yes, he was also the king now, having imprisoned his father the same day he had locked away his sister.” I am reminded of Shakespeare’s McBeth. Wonderful magical story Jayshree ✨🤗💖

Thanks Charlotte! Macbeth! Interesting - power corrupts? The difference is that this story is accepted as having occurred in ancient times.

The story of King Saul in the Bible mirrors Shakespeare’s story of McBeth, and it’s very likely where he received his inspiration for his own narrative. Fascinating how when we explore ancient times the number of cross cultural narratives and themes.
