The Wielder of Worldly Knowledge

Ok, so my first post is going to be something I think I've asked you about before - don't know whether you remember this at all.

When you were about 5 or a little bit younger, I learned of the stubbornness of your character, and I realized I had to do something if I were to continue to completely dominate and reap the benefits of being the elder. The benefits I desired to keep were, among other things, that you would do whatever I told you to. It wasn't hard to maintain that position, since being 7 years older had obvious advantages, such as the ability to wield the knowledge of worldly things to my advantage.

I can't remember exactly how it started, but you were being stubborn like always - I'm sure of it. So, after attempts at reasoning with you failed, I cleverly figured out the thing that would make you change your mind. I said, "If you don't (let's say it was) clean my room, I'm going to call in the monsters." And I ambled over to the open window and began to call, "Hey, monsters-" I was stopped by a frantic wailing, "Noooo! Ok, I'll do it!"

And so it went for sometime that I got what I wanted from you, because I knew how afraid you were of the dark and what lurked within it. I had you believing that I had some insider connection with that scary place. I'm not sure how long my reign as The Wielder lasted, but it ended one day when your reply to my threat was, "Go ahead."
