Thank you, this is amazing. I get information that makes me grow better, best regards to all the teaching team.

Tu mensaje de aceptación con respecto a los comentarios que hemos hecho nos motivan a seguir. Un abrazo.

halo pak @fantvwiki, cerita Malin kundang memang sudah sangat terkenal dan melegenda, lokasi nya di sumatra barat juga sangat mirip dengan kondisi asli manusia yang sujud minta ampun.

jika bisa di ceritakan dengan konflik barangkali kisah ini jadi menarik dan membuat orang lain jadi penasaran dan ingin membacanya. namun karena di buat mengalir seperti yang terjadi, orang sudah tahu cerita nya dan sudah paham sehingga tidak begitu tertarik. oke pantvwiki, semoga anda sukses.

Thank you.

¡Saludos amigo!🤗

Que duro desenlace el de esas personas. Sabes que acá en Venezuela hay una historia un tanto similar a la que reseñas solo que, en la de aquí solo dicen que esa maldición llevó a la mujer a vagar por los llanos llorando.

Te deseo mucho éxito en la dinámica... Un fuerte abrazo💚

Thank you my friend, I'm glad you said hello and read this post.

Hi @fantvwiki, I really enjoyed reading your essay. You have clearly highlighted how Malin's success, despite all his brilliance, becomes his tragedy by neglecting his mother, thus adding an emotional dimension to the story. By describing the symbolic stones of Sumatra, you strengthen the link between myth and reality, allowing readers to fully feel the impact of this legend. Congratulations for this beautiful tribute to a story rich in meaning! Thank you for sharing , wish you all the best in the contest! #microwrite

Thanks for the compliment and Sir, nice to hear those words from you.

This story is a legend that continues to be told in each generation, the goal is for the next generation to remain respectful to parents, as a form of affection and the highest respect for their sacrifice.

Good luck to you too, sir.

Hi fantvwiki,

Your retelling of the Malin Kundang legend in "Stones and Curses" is engaging and captures the story's essence well, making it accessible for a wide audience. One suggestion, if I may give, is to add a bit about how Malin might have felt inside, which could make his choice even more powerful for readers. Also, describing the place a little more could help people picture the story better, especially those who don’t know much about Indonesia. Overall, it’s a meaningful piece, and these small changes could make it even stronger.

Overall, your work is impressive :)
