The layout of this page has been taken almost verbatum from here and should not in the least be consitered my work. I haven't received a reply from Mr. Hallstrom concerning what he things about this page, but as soon as I find out that he objects I'll change or delete it. In the meantime, please enjoy one of the best epic stories I've encountered.

There are only two numbers: Zero and One.
Sometimes, they are close together.
Sometimes, they are far apart.
Once upon a time there were tens of thousands.
One and One make Two
But Those who sustained them grew wary, and turned their backs.
One and Two make Three
When their enemies came upon them, tens of thousands became thousands. Thousands became hundreds. Hundreds became tens.
Two and Three make Five
Tens became few. Then there were only a dozen. Then there were half a dozen. Then there were three. Then there were only two. And then there was one. And their enemies rejoiced.
Three and Five make Eight
Sometimes, you need ten thousand swords.
Sometimes, the difference between Zero and One is no difference at all.
Sometimes, the difference is all the difference in the world.
Sometimes, One is all you need.
