She did not know that the immortal punishment platform was only meant for immortals, that if a mortal jumped off it, they would simply turn to dust flying and flames dying.

Fate always kept you on your toes, they commented, wringing their hands in distress, before parting company feeling very satisfied.

Fate has always been a bit of a rascal, and whenever I was required to ask him for advice, I found it sage to act against what he said.

“Good karma, bad karma. The natural law of retribution.”
