Answer:

Generally, the epics, legends, myths and other stories told in a traditional way have the objective of consolidating the culture in which they develop, encouraging individuals in particular and society in general to unite behind those stories, creating a common culture and a common idiosyncrasy that unifies them as a nation. That is to say, epics and other stories allow to create or consolidate a certain culture, and adapt it to a certain people or society.
