I have a story that I want to write, but this story is not complete. It's a bunch of ideas that I wrote down and I know how it's going to start, but I don't know how to finish it, I want the ending to be shocking and "weird" (weird is not the best word to describe it but I don't know which one) To give you an idea, I want the ending to be like the ending of Madoka Magica, "weird" and unexpected, good but sad, I know what I just said may not be helpful, so I'm only going to write a little bit of the storie and in what I need help
(I aclare that this story happens in a relly old era, like, when there where queens and knights, it also have some fantasy characters like monsters and stuff)
The protagonist haves existential problems and wants to kill God, there is a reason why she wants to do it, not only because she is crazy, but I do not want to say much since I am a person who gatekeeps a lot because I think someone is going to steal my story (I know it's kinda stupid, but uuuuh, i am like that srry)
In the end I want her to not complete her mission and instead kill God, become a goddess, but I don't know how to write that (ノ´Д｀)ノ
I reeeeelllly need help whit:
How to write existencial problems
And how to write that unexpected ending
Idk if this is the best place to seek help but uuuh idk where ( ´-｀)

Just a quick idea: You could begin the story with a question that questions existentialism and then offer an answer at the end. Or, if your character is still searching for the answer, they could bring it up again at the end. Or you could add that the question doesn't actually have an answer at all. (As a reader, these kinds of things really impress me.) I think the best way to write about someone struggling with existential pain is to put yourself in their shoes. You might also be influenced by the writers you read. Kafka, for example, is very good at this. Have a good writing :)

Hmmmmm u said she want too kill god, so I think you can go down the path of madness, which the protagonist was truly crazy, or you can say that "that fight" is not a fight as such, but rather a symbolic fight, of the idea of God or something like that.
OMG THX YOU, the truth is that I hadn't thought about symbolism, I don't know why, but even though it may not seem like it, it gave me a lot of ideas related to actions that are going to happen in the story and why they are going to happen, a big hole in my story that happens in many places (￣▽￣;;), relly relly biiig thank you

I've been thinking about the part you mentioned, that the protagonist might have existential questions and I think you could make a line like a gauge of her madness, since she would be crazy and since everyone would treat her as such, a deterioration of her mental health could develop and lead her to question if what she believes is really "correct" ♪～(´ε｀ )
I'm sincerely interested in what you can do. Could you please upload your progress? If u wanted

Hi , um idk if hat I’m going to say is useful since I’m not a writer at all but maybe you should consider to read already the parts of your story and try to live it in your head so maybe that would look more easy . Or you can also try to be in the head of one of the characters to see his point of view and maybe that would help .
Uhh idk sorry but I think that if I had this problem I would try that
Sorry again if that doesn’t help
Byeee
