Aha – I see, he is not the poor innocent wheat-thresher victim mentioned in dispatches after all! Something devious is going on…

‘Micheal’ threw me a bit – is that the first time this character has been named?

@JonB – He actually said his name in the second thing he said to Sarah. More answers are on the way.

Oh, even Death got lied to. Now that makes it interesting, gives this very boring moral some new import. Fun turn for the story.
