Read the following story:
Once upon a time in a land far away, a lonely troll lived
under a bridge. He was feared by the nearby townspeople,
and through the years he learned to accept his quiet life.
Although his life was not exciting, he survived as best he
could. No matter how quietly the troll lived or how much he
tried to avoid the village, however, he was eventually
chased
away from the bridge by paranoid villagers.
