In scrolling through social media, one can't help but notice the plethora of 'heroes' dominating our feeds, leading to an intriguing reflection: Are we witnessing a shift away from traditional storytelling, with a growing desire to embody the influencer persona?

Yet, the essence of traditional narratives and the rich experience of storytellers haven't vanished in our digital epoch. They are, instead, constantly being redefined. Notably, popular video games have introduced a novel narrative dimension, inviting players to not only engage with but also co-create extraordinary stories.

Amidst these evolving narrative landscapes, Artificial Intelligence (AI) poses the most captivating questions. Will AI overtake storytelling, crafting narratives with futuristic themes unimaginable today? Or, will it emerge as a true collaborator in storytelling, enriching our narratives with unprecedented creativity? These are areas we are just beginning to explore, learning how to meld human creativity with AI's capabilities.

It's a vast and somewhat uncharted territory – addressing these intriguing questions might seem daunting as of now, for they primarily invoke further inquiry.

A crucial starting point in this journey is revisiting the ancient tales that have been the bedrock of human culture, discovering their potential for gaining new relevance in our contemporary context.
