In
the book The Time Machine by H.G. Wells, there are two different types of a race.
The Eloi and the Morlock. The Morlock live in a well-run hell below while the
Eloi live in a rundown garden of eve above. The reason for this is probably because
the Morlock work and the Eloi don’t. If you don’t work nothing gets done. So the
Eloi didn’t work and everything above ground was worn down except for a few
houses. The Morlock would work all day underground making clothes and shoes for
the Eloi. Everything was nice underground because the Morlock where working.
The Eloi had enslaved the Morlock and this was also one of the reasons that the
Morlock worked so much and the Eloi didn’t work at all. Maybe the Eloi would
have worked if they hadn’t enslaved the Morlock. The Time Traveler explains
them as “very indolent creatures.” The Morlock were not indolent at all. They were
very industrious. This industriousness made the underground a well-run place. The
laziness of the Eloi made the aboveground a very rundown place.
