"The most powerful stories operate on more than one level. They allude to another story or myth, indirectly referencing something biblical, classical, mythological, epic, poetic, musical, et cetera. Doing so engages the conscious and subconscious mind at once, making the story bigger than it is by itself; making it universal. Analogy, allegory, and conceit can also be used to the same purpose . ."
