This is a short story in black and white about the world in general.
Trouble was marching and Reason was fighting. “Stop!”, Reason screamed, but Trouble just didn’t care anymore; rather it felt great! Trouble just kept on going until it met resistance from Pity. Resistance had always feared Pity but was joined by his brother, Obligation, who had ways to cancel out Pity and make Trouble not regret grinding it down. As Trouble was grinding down Pity it was suddenly struck by Opinion. Opinion was not very happy about Trouble although it had been a supporter from the start. Opinion, Trouble knew, was a powerful force, and so it asked Greed for help. Greed said it could cover up some of it, but not all, and so, Trouble eventually had to ask the help of Deception. Deception felt delighted and soon turned Opinion in favor of Trouble. Trouble and his kin remained victorious. They, even now, live happily in the land of oblivion.
