The story of the Golden Fleece is about a divine being in the center of a circular room with his magical fleece on. The people came from all sides into the room and they all planned on
taking the fleece of power by force. As they all decided to attack at once, the lights went out, and they all slewed without hesitation. When the lights went back on, everyone was dead and the divine being was still there in the midst with his golden fleece. Protected by levels of indirection, as these morons kill each other.
