Once upon a time there was a godman in a village. He wanted to control the village through fear of an evil creature. He told a lot of stories about how the evil creature kills someone. No one bought his bull shit story and everyone mocked him. One night the godman killed someone exactly like the evil creature in his story. Everyone was shocked and thought to themselves that the godman was right and they should've believed him all along. Now suddenly the whole village started paying attention and obeyed to whatever he said just to save themselves from the evil creature. The godman lived happily ever after.
