In the book The right hand of darkness by Ursula k. Le Guin there is a folk tale called The Place Inside The Blizzard. In the tale it talks about two brothers that break the rules and do something that goes against society in the gathenian world. The pledge kemmer which is not allowed and against the rules. Once people found out one of the two brothers committed suicide and they were after the other one but he left. This folk tale relates to chapter 15 because they mentioned about committing suicide during the cold winter but gathenians see it as "immoral" because they believe that if they grew up and survived why would they want to just throw away their life when many others die due to harsh conditions and high death rates due to the cold weather.
