Yes. The beauty of an allegory is that it can be its own story while still maintaining its allegorical meaning. The surface story is engaging and can be read as a standalone, but the deeper symbolic meaning is there for those who look for it. For example, in an allegory about good and evil, the characters' actions and the plot can be followed as a regular story, and at the same time, it represents the larger concepts of good and evil.
Well, in a sense, an allegory can be its own story. See, an allegory is like a story within a story. It has its own plot, characters, and all the elements of a story. However, it's also a device that conveys a hidden meaning. But if we look at it just as a piece of literature, it stands as an independent story. For example, 'Animal Farm' is an allegory about the Russian Revolution, but it's also a story about animals on a farm, with their own relationships, power struggles, and events that unfold, which makes it a story in its own right.
Sure. An allegory is its own story because it has a unique plot, characters, and themes, even if it's presenting those elements in a symbolic or metaphorical way to communicate a hidden or moral lesson.

You can add more details and descriptions to the existing scenes and characters. Make the settings more vivid and the character's thoughts and feelings more complex.
