The better, common word is "allegory." A less common word would be "apologue." "Parables" in common usage are usually assumed to be religious, often even Christian specific, or even more specifically, stories told by Christ himself. "Fables" such as Aesop's almost always have a moral or ethical message but are not generally considered religiously oriented, though they may be considered "Western-centric." Even "legends" over time will drift from pure historical form and take on cultural significance.
So, by definition, "fables" and "parables" are "allegorical" in nature. Other religions, ethnic or even national/political cultures will have similar stories by different names, all allegorical in nature.

Direct speech is when the exact words spoken by a character are quoted within quotation marks, like "I am going to the store," she said. Indirect speech conveys the meaning of what was said without quoting the exact words, like She said she was going to the store. Both types of speech are commonly used in stories to bring characters to life and advance the plot.

Stories that move back and forth through time, also known as nonlinear storytelling, often use flashbacks or flash-forwards to present events out of chronological order. This technique helps create suspense, reveal key information gradually, and provide a deeper understanding of the characters or plot. Examples include "Memento," "The Time Traveler's Wife," and "Pulp Fiction."

from Roger W. Harms, M.D.
If you develop a bacterial infection during pregnancy, antibiotics can nearly always be taken safely. It's important to choose the specific medication carefully, however. Some antibiotics are OK to take during pregnancy, while others are not. Safety depends on various factors, including the type of antibiotic, when in your pregnancy you take the antibiotic, how much you take and for how long.
Here's a sampling of antibiotics generally considered safe during pregnancy:
Certain other antibiotics should be avoided during pregnancy. For example, tetracyclines - such as doxycycline, tetracycline and minocycline - can damage a pregnant woman's liver, discolor a developing baby's teeth and cause various birth defects.
If an antibiotic is the best way to treat your condition - you have a urinary tract infection, for example, or you test positive for group B strep late in pregnancy (in which case antibiotics are given during labor) - your health care provider will prescribe the safest antibiotic at the safest dosage.

The story of Athena's birth: When Zeus was warned that if his wife Metis had a son, that he would overthrow his father, Zeus swallowed Metis. Later, Zeus got a terrible headache. Hephaestus, the god a blacksmiths, opened up Zeus's skull and out came Athena, fully grown and dressed in armor.
The story of Arachne: Arachne was a young maiden who weaved beautifully. One day she bragged that she was better than Athena, the goddess of weaving. Angered, Athena visited Arachne in the disguise of a old woman. She told her to take back what she said and honor Athena as the greatest weaver. Arachne refused to and challenged the goddess to a contest. In fury, Athena threw off her disguise and excepted the girl's challenge. Athena weaved a glorious tapestry showing the Olympian gods in all of their glory. Arachne also weaved a flawless tapestry, but it mocked Zeus and all of his wives. In outrage Athena tore apart Arachne's tapestry. The scared Arachne tried to hang herself, but before she could, Athena turned her into a spider.
The story of the contest for Athens: Both Athena and Poseidon wanted to be the patron god of the newly found Greek city. So they decided whoever gave the best gift to the people of that city would have it. Poseidon gave them a spring, but it was salty like the sea. Athena gave them the first olive tree. Athena's gift was judged as the better, since it gave food, oil, wood, and shade. Then the people named their city Athens, after their patron goddess.

Mark 5:25-34 a woman with a 'flow of blood' for 12 years, reached out to Jesus in her attempts to be healed. This took courage and initiative, because it actually broke one of the sanitary restrictions in the Mosaic Law, but because she had such strong faith in Jesus, he healed her.(Leviticus 15:19-28)
Mark 10:46-52 is the account of the blind beggar who desperately wanted to be healed. When he called out to Jesus, many people told him to be quiet, but he took the initiative and kept it up until Jesus heard him, and he WAS healed.
(1Samuel 25:2-35)When Nabal refused to repay David's protective forces with deserved provisions, the initiativeand tact of Nabal's wife, "Abigail the Carmelitess," served to restrain David from bloodguilt.
(John 5:19) Therefore, in answer, Jesus went on to say to them: "Most truly I say to YOU, The Son cannot do a single thing of his own initiative, but only what he beholds the Father doing. For whatever things that One does, these things the Son also does in like manner.
(John 7:28) "Therefore Jesus cried out as he was teaching in the temple and said: "YOU both know me and know where I am from. Also, I have not come of my own initiative, but he that sent me is real, and YOU do not know him. "
(John 10:17-18) This is why the Father loves me, because I surrender my soul, in order that I may receive it again. No man has taken it away from me, but I surrender it of my own initiative. I have authority to surrender it, and I have authority to receive it again. The commandment on this I received from my Father."
Proverbs urge us to take the initiative to do good toward others. (Pr 3:27-30)

Poseidon was the lord of the seas. He was 2nd in power to Zeus and quite determined and ambitious. He also wasn't one to anger for he is very aggressive. His aggressiveness is shown in the "Odyssey" when Poseidon punishes Odysseus and his crew for blinding his Cyclops, paying no attention that his Cyclops had shipwrecked and ransacked Odysseus and were now planning to eat him and his crew! This punishment lasted 8 years by Poseidon throwing out sea monsters and storms. (A perfect example of His power)
When Poseidon and his brothers overthrew the Titans, They drew cards to determine whom ruled what, and Poseidon got the Ocean. They all agreed to share the power of the earth, however, the most responsibility. Soon after, he constructed an underwater magnificent palace for himself. In addition to that, he created 2 white horses to move his chariot through the ocean.
In the beginnings of Zeus's rule, he did not rule to well, and the other gods were displeased. Because of this, Poseidon decided to ban together the other gods and try to overthrow Zeus. However, they were unsuccessful for Zeus easily got away after they captured and immobilized him. Zeus then punished Poseidon by banishing him and then sending him to work on the walls of troy disguised as mortals. The king of troy said he would give Poseidon and Apollo (who was also banished) gold. However the king failed to keep his promise, which, of course, infuriated Poseidon, who then sent a sea monster to destroy it, but, unfortunately, was slayed by Hercules.

4: And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
5: When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.
6: But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7: Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?
8: And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?
9: Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?
10: But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)
11: I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.
12: And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
