In a world of many cultures, personalities, and perspectives, we forget that we are all the same by nature: to be alive and free among family and friends, pursuing a purposeful life for the greater good is desirable to all. It is only when our factual knowledge of the world and our attachment to worldly things is unbalanced that we become dissimilar. Further, when we turn our attention from popular culture to ancestral culture, we find more similarities and soulful interests than we would have imagined. Go back far enough, and we can even see ourselves As One.
Wisdom, attachment, and ancestral parallels are the themes in The Fate of Our Union. Three heroes from different lands and occupations are brought together to battle their common enemy—our common enemy. When they fail to carry out their fathers’ will, which is wiser and unworldly, they find themselves separated and steeped in greed, anger, and the unfortunate past. A unifying stallion helps them listen to each other, so they can learn from their best qualities, from the greatest heroes and philosophers, and the gods and fates who made their memory imperishable.
