New page

Corgi paperback edition, p 21:- '''''In fact it did end there... Corporal Carrot became Sergeant Carrot and in the fullness of time, died in an unlikely accident involving an anteater"'''''

Corgi paperback edition, page 105: '''''Bundo emerged...and didn't stop running.... he became a seaman and died three years later, when an armadillo fell on his head in a far-off country....'''''

OK, so Sergeant Carrot dies age seventy in Watch uniform and Bundo Prung dies as a sailor. But is this evidence of a fate that ''had'' to happen to somebody, somewhere? Perhaps this was facilitated by the [[History Monks]], to tie up a loose thread, and ensure somebody in Ankh-Morpork, (at the time [[Edward d'Eath]] chose a different future from several possible courses of action), did in fact die from falling formophagic animal?

It would appear that ''somebody'' had to die in a freak accident involving an anteater of some description. The ''method'' of encountering [[Death]] was immutable, but the ''person'', the ''time'' and the ''place'' involved were all open for negotiation.

[[Narrative Causality]] again?

The higher-order decision as to which of Bundo and Carrot to slay via formiphagic mammal - and when and where - is made by unseen hands in {{MAA}}.
