Me Struggling On What I Want Nuru To Be Personally And Hero Journey Wise

Me struggling on what I want Nuru to be personally and hero journey wise…

I want Nuru to be a realist. Like very idk. She sees stars as a real thing that helps her. Nuru always knows where she’s going, that’s includes her destiny. She always knew what was going to happen. She was going to become queen and research the stars to get answers.

But this adventure and the meteor shower and her father’s death seem out of left fields.

I think this makes her fall into an existential dread. She is a princess yes but nothing revolves around her. She is important like a moon is the the earth but she is also a simple rock that was pulled into the orbit compared to the other planets. The huge dread is unreal to her. Like how an asteroid can hit the planet at any second and we could be dead in a millisecond.

I think her journey is understanding yes your not important and it’s ok. Space is nothing. It has so much nothing. But this is something. This is small but ok that it’s small. She can stand up on her feet and help in small ways, because if she went into the library to understand space? She would most definitely die instantly. It’s better to communicate and build bonds. That’s is what her kingdom should do. Move, understand bonds, and accept how things will be to keep living and learning.

Yeah I tried.

Idk i’m trying to tie her to space. Personally and all bc it would be a cool way to tie everything.

It can also lead into more of a war based stance. Perhaps the kingdom of koto isn’t helped out of the danger is because cause it’s a place based in war.

Koto wanting independence and knowledge. So it is given this but where it’s place causes it to always be in poverty. Not tourist because of the danger there.

The kingdom is powerful in the sense it knows how to survive. It has an amazing amount of resources and it is a cunning kingdom. But it is dangerous and people will die. Population will be low because there are no new people and her people are dying out.

Places like the Ice kingdom (where i think Hugo is from.) wants koto’s resources for machinery, but not by trade. By colonization. Harming the culture the more they think that teaching them new things will help. Taking away their culture though this.

I think this would help with the dynamic with Hugo and Nuru. Both teaching each other their sides and understanding they’re both struggling. I think it’s difficult story to write without being super preachy but I think there could be a balance that could be interesting.

TLDR; I just more interesting dynamics bc Hugo and varian are the MCs and they’re ALL THE MCS (don’t get me wrong tho. I fucking long varian n Hugo)
