Samoan story of the shell-fish two torches and death.
The Samoans tell how the gods held a council to decide what was to be done with men. One of them said “Bring men and let them cast their skin; and when they die let them be turned to shellfish or to a coco-nut leaf torch which when shaken in the wind blazes out again.” But another god called Palsy (Supa) rose up and said “Bring men and let them be like the candle-nut torch which when it is once out cannot be blown up again. Let the shellfish change their skin but let men die.” While they were debating a heavy rain came on and broke up the meeting. As the gods ran for shelter to their houses they cried “Let it be according to the counsel of Palsy! Let it be according to the counsel of Palsy!“So men died but shellfish cast.
Does that help?

Hello User,
One of the most important ingredients for suspense is to 'let the audience play God'. By this he means to let the audience know everything that is going to happen so that they can predict the fate of the characters.
