When I think of an epic I
immediately tend to relate it to a hero, to bravery, to wars and fights against evilness. An epic story has to have a hero and, of course the counterpart: his/ her enemy.
An epic story has also count with a journey that has to be made by the hero. He/she is the one who has to begin this journey and within it learn and grown in spirit, strength and values. At the end of this trip the heron has to reflect on what he/she has been through.
