Quotes:

Bel: [Approaching Mold from another table] Are you shy?::Mold: [Grasps Bel by her hair] I'm ugly and I am Christian. And that is not a good combination in here, hm? Piss off!

Osmund: Bring her back, I beg you bring her back!::Langiva: No, I can't. Pray to your god, see what he can do.

Ulric: [Osmund tears open Ulric's shirt to reveal buboes under his armpits] I am Death. Vengeance is mine! God's fury rains down on you!

Hob: [said slowly] There is no God.

Ulric: Yes, this village is without the pestilence... but it is also without God. For this, they will suffer.

Langiva: [Pointing at the crusaders' weapons] These are God's gifts to us. These are his words and these fine men his ambassadors.

[first lines]::Wolfstan: The fumes of the dead are in the air like poison. The plague, more cruel and more pitiless than war, descended upon us. A pestilence, that would leave half of our kingdom dead. Where did it come from? What carried its germ. The priests told us it was God's punishment. For what sin? What commandment must we break that could earn this? No, we knew the truth. This was not God's work, but devilry. Or witchcraft. But our task, to hunt down a demon, was God's cure.

Langiva: Oy, we're not a bad as ya think. We're worse.

Ulric: The woman was already dead, but I freed her. The mob would have held her again and burned her. I spared her suffering. Sometimes that is all you can do.

Osmund: May I ask, how did your husband die?::Langiva: Men like you killed him.::Osmund: Men like me?::Langiva: Men of God.

Molds (or moulds; see spelling differences) are fungi that grow in the form of multicellular filaments called hyphae. A connected network of these tubular branching hyphae has multiple, genetically identical nuclei and is considered a single organism, referred to as a colony. In contrast, fungi that grow as single cells are called yeasts.

Molds are considered to be microbes and do not form a specific taxonomic or phylogenetic grouping, but can be found in the divisions Zygomycota, Deuteromycota and Ascomycota. Some molds cause disease or food spoilage; others play an important role in biodegradation or in the production of various foods, beverages, antibiotics and enzymes.

There are thousands of known species of molds which include opportunistic pathogens, saprotrophs, aquatic species and thermophiles. Like all fungi, molds derive energy not through photosynthesis but from the organic matter in which they live. Typically, molds secrete hydrolytic enzymes, mainly from the hyphal tips. These enzymes degrade complex biopolymers such as starch, cellulose and lignin into simpler substances which can be absorbed by the hyphae. In this way molds play a major role in causing decomposition of organic material, enabling the recycling of nutrients throughout ecosystems. Many molds also secrete mycotoxins which, together with hydrolytic enzymes, inhibit the growth of competing microorganisms.
