Equal Rites (1987) Terry Pratchett (Discworld)
“So you’re going to sort of die?”
“Oh yes.” The cat purred as the fingers tickled it behind the ear.
The smith looked embarrassed. “When?”
The wizard thought for a moment. “In about six minutes’ time.”
“Oh.”
“Don’t worry,” said the wizard. “I’m quite looking forward to it, to tell you the truth. I’ve heard it’s quite painless.”
The blacksmith considered this. “Who told you?” he said at last.
For the first eight years of her life the world had been a particularly boring place and now that it was becoming interesting Esk wasn’t about to act ungrateful.
“How did you do that?” said Esk.
“Ah,” said Granny, “Wouldn’t you like to know?”
“Yes. I would. That’s why I asked, Granny,” said Esk, severely.
“They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it is not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.”
