Assignment # 4 - Setting

Now that you have become a little familiar with your deity, find three different myths that involve your deity.  The more myths you read concerning your deity, the easier you will find moving forward with this blog will be. Once you have read three myths, choose one.  This assignment will be an exploration concerning the home of the deity or the place where the myth takes place. This post should only contain a vivid description containing the setting of your chosen myth. Use imagery concerning the five senses.  Remember to use first person.

Here is a quick recap:
1) Find and read three myths about your deity.
2) Choose a single myth for your blog post (the other myth will be retold during your presentation).
3) Describe the setting of that myth.

- What does the setting look like?
- What does the setting sound like?
- What does the setting smell like?
- What does the setting feel like?
- What does the setting taste like?

Remember to use this post, as an exploration of using adjectives to help construct a sense of place.

Why are we doing this?
Not only will this allow the writer/ reader to have a deeper sense of where the deity comes from, but it will also help you later when you begin to construct your personal narrative in post #9.
