@OhMyGodMyKnees Literally nothing. There was an interview at some point where the author said she got the idea when she was flipping TV channels back and forth between reality shows and war news.

@Aleums @lux_interior @OhMyGodMyKnees the hero’s journey is such bullshitP.S. The Hero’s Journey is a CIA op. I am not even kidding. Novel workshops were organized by the CIA in the 1960s to push it.
