Interlude #03 - Fear

There was once a traveller whom was making his way to a great city. One night he met two other travellers along the road. One was Fear and the other was Plague. Plague explained to the traveller that, once they arrive, they (Fear and Plague) are expected to kill 10,000 people in the city. The traveller asks Plague if Plague would do all the killing. "Oh no," says Plague." I'll kill only a few hundred. My friend Fear will kill all the rest..."
