I'm curious for examples/ideas for mythic story structure at that next stage, from Early Adulthood -> Late Adulthood. I'm currently writing a sci-fi book, and am finding it quite compelling to consider that the arc may be more appropriately one-step-up on the maturation ladder, and therefore not benefit from the Hero's Journey arc.

Lois McMaster Bujold's "Curse of Chalion" and "Paladin of Souls" are a couple of really good examples of an adulthood mythic structure.
