Why does the third of three brothers, who shares his food with the old woman in the wood, go on to become king of the country? Why does James Bond manage to disarm the nuclear bomb a few seconds before it goes off rather than, as it were, a few seconds afterwards? Because a universe where that did not happen would be a dark and hostile place. Let there be goblin hordes, let there be terrible environmental threats, let there be giant mutated slugs if you really must, but let there also be hope.
It may, be a grim, thin hope, an Arthurian sword at dinner, but let us know that we do not live in vain" Sir Terry Pratchett (sunset picture taken and edited 2015 December18)
