A Dumb Idea

When the world started, it was in peace. There were creatures of all kinds that could live easily together. But, places can never stay perfect. As there is light, so there is darkness. Darkness will always come when there is light, because a shadow wouldn’t exist if there was no source to shine down on something. Without that light, there would be no shadow. Without light, there would be nothing, and with light, there is darkness. The world cannot change that, it can only hope to stay in harmony for the longest amount of time possible. When something comes to tip the scales, there is nothing anybody can do but watch in fear or try and balance it back. So, when the infection came, some wished for it to heal itself, and some, unknowingly, set off to try and stop it from spreading.
