Being electrocuted

Being offended is a lot like being in love.  Except replace the word offended with the word love.  That is the wisdom of the ages.  Here's another story for you.  3 brothers decided to do what many other people in many other stories have done, which is to cheat death.  You cheat death of course, by beating him at something he's good at, in this case, I can't remember what it was.  Then, because you cheat death, he's obligated to give you whatever your heart desires.  In this case, it was a stick, a rock, and a cape.  These 3 items are known as the Deathly Bellows.  But wait, there's a trick, 2 of the items will turn on the user if the user is not wise.  Bet you didn't see that coming.  And of course, the youngest/wisest of the brothers is wise and doesn't fall for death's cunning trickery.  The end.  Oh wait, when the 3rd brother is ready to die, he greets death as an old friend, because that's what their relationship is based on, not cheating and tricking.  And what's the first thing you do after you finally meet someone that you've been running from and hiding from your entire life?  You greet them as an old friend.  At least, that's what wise young brothers do, even though death tricked your other brothers into dying years before you and has since hunted and chased you down as an act of revenge.  But at least they are old friends now.
