Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there was a little village called Alter. The people of Alter were known for being kind and friendly, but they had a big problem. They were all genetically vulnerable to a terrible disease that would make them very sick.

The villagers knew that they needed to find a way to protect themselves from the disease, so they went to a wise old scientist who lived in the nearby town. The scientist told them that the disease was caused by a bias in their genetic makeup, and that the only way to protect themselves was to alter their genes.

The villagers were afraid at first, but they knew that they needed to do something to protect themselves and their families. So, they agreed to the scientist's plan and allowed him to alter their genes.

After the alteration, the villagers were amazed to find that they were no longer vulnerable to the disease. They were so grateful to the scientist that they threw a big celebration in his honor. From that day on, the village of Alter was a safe and happy place to live.

The moral of the story is that sometimes we need to be willing to change ourselves in order to protect ourselves and those we care about. And that it is important to be unbiased and listen to experts who can help us make the best decisions.
