Five different- very different- stories. But all are tragedies with a twist at the end. Some may have cut-off endings; but there's a true philosophy at the end.
First story- Two cuts of the devil About a mood-obsessed girl, a crazy count, the girl's servant- and a cup of chocolate tea.
Second story- Mr Laurence's dilemma About a tax collector who goes to Scotland to collect the whiskey and Scotland's rebellious yet ingenuous way of protecting it. Or do they really not know?
Third story- The sultan's dialiah An emperor has sacrificed a daughter for the sake of peace between his country Bizantin and the Sultan- the lord-'s country. He dies, but what of his daughter?
Fourth story- Scary bread About a Christian that attempts to 'teach' the vikings. But as time grows the Christian grows weary, for she is doing something very wrong and she knows it.
Fifth story- Happy Epicurean About a little boy who can otherwise be known as a carnivore...
