4 | The Doyen

Guide your community into a thriving existence.

Prompt:
You are The Doyen—ancestral wisdom in human form, a bridge between what was and what could be. In a time where your community hovers on the edge of transformation, you carry the blueprint for liberation in your bones.

Create a scene, story, or poem where you lead your people through a moment of great transition. What tools, memories, or technologies do you use? How does your leadership reshape the future? Who do you become in the process?

Let your writing explore the tension between legacy and innovation, grief and joy, individual vision and collective survival. Paint a world where thriving is more than survival—it’s ritual, rhythm, and revolution.
