Fear of the dark
Fear of the dark is a common fear or phobia among children and, to a varying degree, adults. A fear of the dark does not always concern darkness itself; it can also be a fear of possible or imagined dangers concealed by darkness. Some degree of fear of the dark is natural, especially as a phase of child development. Most observers report that fear of the dark seldom appears before the age of 2 years. When fear of the dark reaches a degree that is severe enough to be considered pathological, it is sometimes called scotophobia (from σκότος – "darkness"), or lygophobia (from λυγή – "twilight").

They are now the Knights who say ``Ekke Ekke Ekke Ekke Ptang Zoo Boing! ''and must therefore give Arthur a test. Unable to pronounce the new name, Arthur addresses them as`` Knights who until recently said 'Ni!','' inquiring as to the nature of the test. The head knight demands another shrubbery, to be placed next to but slightly higher than the first; and then Arthur ``must cut down the mightiest tree in the forest -- with a herring! ''The knight presents a herring to be used. Arthur objects, asserting that`` it ca n't be done!'' upon which the knights recoil as though in fear and pain. It soon emerges that the knights are unable to withstand the word ``it '', which Arthur's party is unable to avoid saying. The knights are soon incapacitated by the word, which even the head knight can not stop repeating, allowing Arthur and his followers to make their escape.
