Reading Notes B: The Tree of Lot

I've decided to scrap the whole of the egyptian myth cause I really wasn't feeling it. I've decided to go with the tree of Lot which I got instant inspiration from.

This starts with Seth planting a tree over Adam's grave. Later, in order to repent for his sins, Lot must water the tree but is constantly spoiled by the devil who keeps drinking his water. Angles water it and later it's cut down to build the cross of christ.

I'm thinking of having this be completely metaphorical. A young woman who lives alone has just lost her first pet, her precious dog, Adam. To commemorate him, she buys an apple sapling and plants it over his grave in her backyard. In the heat of the summer she keeps trying to water it but her hose breaks, she slips and drops her bucket of water and forgets to water it cause she has to shower, and finally the water to her house is cut off during a drought. She's very afraid that the little tree is going to dehydrate in the sun but when she wakes up one morning the rain has generously watered her tree.
Later, she grows older and has to move. While the new patrons are in the house, a great tornado rips to tree nearly out of the ground. They end up having to cut it down but they love the wood so much they use it to build a dog house for their new dog.
