Hello children. Eli The IceMan was King of the electric circuit. Eli was born in the Ice Palace in The Sky. He was friendly with the components on the circuit and one day they convinced him to leave the Ice Palace in The Sky so he could come to The Electric Circuit and be King.
Eli was the best King The Electric Circuit ever had. He was kind and just and allowed the components to work at whatever rate they chose. And they were all happy.
Until one day Eli became sad. He was spending too much time being the King. He felt he was not wise enough to do the job. He missed reading books and he wanted to learn how to paint. He wanted to read and write poetry far from the burden of rule.
So Eli quit being King of The Circuit. He flew back to the Ice Palace in the Sky and the components were sad. They needed a new leader but they did not want to rule themselves. They preferred a mild autocracy that would pass as being democratic. Like in America.
They needed a new King.
