C is for Courage: "Mowgli's Brothers" by Rudyard Kipling

 2-126

Summary: Prometheus Mowgli steals fire and is banished.

Bonus: There's really only one choice here.

Commentary: Not super impressed with this one. Kipling's writing is awkward (ye is well out of date compared to the rest of his vocabulary), the story's not particularly exciting (Mowgli never really seems to be much threatened by Shere Khan), and he's probably the least developed character in his own story. 1/5 not worth its pages in the collection.

I'm grateful for all the people who have had the courage to stand up for the rights we (mostly) enjoy today.
