Reading Notes: The Ramayana, Part B

I find it interesting that Bharata is angry about becoming king. In my story I am thinking about switching that around and making Bharata's desire to be king the main plot. Instead of Bharata trying to get Rama to return from exile maybe he will set Rama up to get in trouble and be exiled so that he can be closer to becoming king. Also maybe Bharata will have something to do with Dasharatha's death so that he can become king. After Bharata makes his way to king I might make him be a sort of dictator and see where the story goes from there. Maybe some kind of overthrow and Bharata gets exiled and Rama comes back or Dasharatha's death was fake?
