Any story is the quest to fulfil a human desire. We have identified universal quests for every human desire. These universal quests reveal the invisible plot structure of stories. An analysis of Blockbuster, Hit & Flop plots led to the discovery of Mythosis Code. The Code reveals the story principles shared by all Blockbusters. We use the Code to estimate and unlock a story’s Blockbuster potential.
All Blockbusters have at least 3 universal quests. Louis Wain has 3 universal quests of Tranquillity, Acceptance & Independence.
In Blockbusters, each universal quest is mirrored by ONLY ONE character. Louis mirrors the universal quests of Independence & Tranquillity. Emily mirrors the quest of Acceptance. Caroline doesn’t have a well-developed quest.
Every Blockbuster character borrows at least 35% of the universal quest. Louis’s character borrows 12% of the universal quest of Independence & 35% of the quest of Tranquillity. Emily borrows 11% of the quest of Acceptance.
Blockbusters interweave different quests to create a tight plot structure. Interweaving occurs when events of 2 quests occur simultaneously in the story. Blockbusters have a quest interweaving threshold of 0.5. Louis Wain’s quest interweaving score is 0 – none of the character quests are interwoven.

95% events in Louis Wain are borrowed from 3 mythological tales
At Mythosis, we have identified 32 mythological tales. Each mythological tale uniquely represents a human quest to fulfil a desire. These tales are the super set of thousands of tales across cultures.
We have codified the events of each mythological tale. Every tale has 5 major arcs. Each arc has a sequence of events. These events culminate into a major event. Here is the mapping of each character’s quest to the major events in their respective mythological tale.
Quest 1: Louis mirrors 12% of Daedalus’ quest for Independence (below threshold of 35%)
Louis’ desire for Independence stems from the need for self-reliance. The tale of Daedalus from Greek mythology is the universal quest for Independence.
Quest 2: Louis mirrors 35% of Odysseus’ quest for Tranquillity (meets threshold)
Louis’ desire for Tranquillity stems from the need to be in secure surroundings. The tale of Odysseus from Greek mythology is the universal quest for Tranquillity.
Quest 3: Emily mirrors 11% of Karn’s quest for Acceptance (below threshold of 35%)
Emily’s desire for Acceptance stems from the need for approval by others. The tale of Karn from Hindu mythology is the universal quest for Acceptance.
