Ravana is very much a trickster, which can play well into my fairytale idea of retelling Sita's capture and Rama's rescue of her. Their battle would be a good climax to this story, because it shows how Rama finally defeats Ravana. And after he defeats Ravana, I would incorporate the wish that Rama was granted, but I would change it to something else that he wishes for. Probably have him wish for his exile to be over or for him and Sita to live happily ever after. In the end he becomes king and Sita is his queen so I could have the fairytale end with a happy wedding like in Cinderella.
