There is no such thing as a "moral of the story." Morals are non-existent because they cannot justify a story. People ask for a moral or synopsis, but all they get is empty words because they do not know the story. To know the story is to have the story know you as well. You have to care about the characters because they are the story, and they're the audience's teachers. Sure, these characters advocate numbers of so-called "morals" through their words and actions, but the thing is that a story has so much more than just morals. If you give your attention to the characters then they'll teach you all about themselves, their plans, and stuff like that then maybe you'll apply some of what you learned in the story.
The story is about the experience, not the moral.
...just morals. Are we allowed to use "just" when it's describing "morals"?
Thats a good question. . i would say no tho. You can reword it as "only morals".
