The Monkey King from The Chinese Fairy Book by R. Wilhelm.
- Could be fun to explore the nine years before he crosses the sea.
- Might be interesting to see what would happen if Wu Kung failed to understand his master's meaning and did not visit him at night.
- May be interesting if Wu Kung was not banished by his master.
- Wu Kung is kind of a jerk to a lot of people, so it might be interesting if he gets replayed for that in some way.
- May be interesting to have this tale repeated to an audience.

Hey, Colton, it would be awesome if you did a Monkey King story! I agree that it could be interesting to explore some of the "what ifs" you posted above. The Monkey King is one of my favorite Chinese myth stories and it would be cool to see how you made it your own. I'll check back to see if you decided to write this story.
