i have my motifs and symbols as of right now. which, are that Petersen (who is the main character) gets married often because he is the most handsome guy in berlin, the only down fall is that he is flat broke which drives all the women away, him getting married and divorced is both a motif and symbol.
in my story i want Petersen to have a "happy ever after" ending, unlike blue beard. Petersen will also be elected leader of berlin and become famous. some of the main motifs are that blue beard goes on a lot of trips and gives his wife the keys and they find past wifes that he has killed. and also that blue beard isnt a nice guy one mistake could cost you your life

What are some of the recurring motifs in the actual folk tale? Make a list of them. And what important symbols appear in the story? It will be important to retain these for your rewrite.
