They had traveled a long way. Their horses bore marks of the journey; flanks caked with mud, manes matted with dust. At last, the end was near. Dismounting, the pair walked the final few yards on foot. At the edge of the cliff, they paused and gazed upon the scene below. The younger of the two, tugging at his partner's arm, broke the silence. Behold, he said, gesturing at the view that lay before them, Yon lies the field of curriculum. So vast and inviting. Such a worthy object of contemplation. So ready for the harvest, ripe for the hands of willing workers. But wait! What's this? Can it be? Why is there not more movement? Why does it lie so still? Tell me, good father, is it... is it alive? Or is it ... could it be... (gulp!) ... dead
