Once upon a time in a place called, GruntsField, there was an individual who had discovered a unique way to make money. This Helper had learned of a secret technique and shared it with a few peoples, who in turn found success using it. Well, short found success, as the addiction proved to be stronger than the technique.

As word spread about the effectiveness of this method, more people sought out this individual for guidance. This person became known as the "Helper." However, with newfound fame came scrutiny and skepticism.

One day, the Helper decided to use their own secret technique to make money. They were eager to show that they too could benefit from their discovery. But as soon as they tried to take center stage, the crowd turned against Him. The Helper was met with suspicion and disbelief, and they were ultimately forced to leave.

Years passed, and the Helper discovered another method to make money. This time, however, they were hesitant to share their knowledge. They feared that if they revealed their newfound secret, they would once again be met with skepticism and possibly face rejection.

One day, the Helper decided to share with someone they should trust, and felt could benefit, despite their 2nd rate place in the hierarchy. The Helper asked for their ("The Overlords") trust and asked for $100 to teach the secret. The ("Overlord") felt the $100.00 is too much despite practically begging to give away 10 times that earlier in the day to someone else who could care less.

The helper, despite recalling their past experiences and the pain of rejection decided to take a chance and share their secret with the ("Overlord"). The Helper revealed their technique, hoping that this time, they would be met with understanding and appreciation.

Meanwhile the ("Overlord") continues to speak of their generosity and kindness towards others. The ("Overlords") story struck a chord with the Helper, reminding him of the value of trust and friendship.

However, the ("Overlord") was not as open-minded as the Helper had hoped. They dismissed the Helpers knowledge, insisting that $100 was too much to pay for their help. Instead, they laughed and scoffed at the supposed secret. So much so that even when the Helper knew he wouldn't get a penny,, he just asked for trust. Laughed at again, and belittled, the helper held back a while...

In the end, the Helper, well he did what he does best, he thought he helped, by giving away the secret. Needless to say...

It's only a matter of time before his new technique proves beneficial once again. But the Helper is torn, as he was rejected once again, and made to feel bad. First for goofing around and asking for $100.00, not thinking it was a big deal since a lot more was going around like candy during Halloween. But because not even the belief that someone else could know more, and of course definitely not the Helper. They were left to wonder if they would ever find someone who truly valued their expertise and appreciated their unique gifts.

The Helper never gives up though, 8.00 "candies" in his "bag" is all he needs. Besides, maybe 100.00 "candies" is a bit much, especially if it's bitter.

Has Anyone Else Ever Been The Helper?

The end.
