The Misinterpreted Prophecy

Write a story where a prophecy, initially understood as negative, turns out to be a blessing.

Put a twist on the classic concept of a prophecy. Misinterpretations and misunderstandings are a part of everyday human life. Apply this to a prophecy in your story and see how characters react when they discover the prophecy they feared is actually meant for good. It can touch upon themes of perspective, truth and interpretation, and how they shape our reactions and actions.
