Answer:

In both novels, to satisfy their citizens, we see the characters dealing with the same issues competing with themselves.

They always fight what we think is the right thing, or what society expects them to be doing.

Orwell has been against killing the elephant however he did so to save his image nevertheless.

Gideon refused to speak about the antidote, as he felt he would expose his people's culture and secrets in doing so.

I think it was when they started the point of telling stories of the witches and what they did with the people it just started to spook them out and they feared that maybe they were honestly true. And I think at that time it really wasn't the best time to stand out and/or say/do something out of their league because they would think you were a witch.

Why did oral storytelling traditions favor strong meter and alliteration?
tatuchka [14]
Because scops (oral storytellers) were telling their stories orally and not from a written account, they needed something that would allow them to easily remember those stories. This why you notice that tales or epics that were first told orally have a certain cadence that makes it easier to follow. This allows the storyteller to remember and it also allows the reader to follow along in a better way.

As an interesting side note, these story tellers would also sometimes put the stories to music as that was another way to tell the stories. They would start as ballads and the storyteller would play a tune while they sang the stories.
