Council member, quietly and deviously: "The towns-people are restless your majesty. They desire a witch to burn."
Your Majesty shocked then annoyed:
"Again!!!........A witch to burn! They could of had something great and they desire a witch? Sigh, so be it, give them a witch."
Council: "who shall it be?"
Your Majesty: "Who is the one who is differant from the rest, who thinks for himself, who seems to criticize thee...."
Council, forgetting his place, interupts: "The village idiot"
Your majesty angry at being interupted, impatientlly: "Well make it thee!"
...and so a witch was burned, but it wasn't enough, the peasants were thrilled and had to have another, then another, then another....
Then plague betook them, for the cure, as so often is the case, lied within the mind of one who thought different, a witch...
For a witch is the first voted off the island
for rather than frorming an allience,
she gather wood, build shelter, and finds food for the rest,
For she thinks different and can see wood were they be no wood, shelter were they be none, and food not thought edible
for we humans, as social animals, did not develop our big brains to adapt to our environments, as thought, but rather, to manipulate each other.
So one is not enough, and another must go, then another, until finally, one is left, who wins a million, and later, is thrown in jail for tax evasion....
for a million is not enough, or two, or three, or....
