** In ''Literature/WyrdSisters,'' the Fool hates his job and knows that the Duke and Duchess are ruining Lancre, but notes that a Fool is obligated to serve their patron until death. [[spoiler:He overcomes this at the end, revealing that he witnessed King Verence's murder]]. Meanwhile, he tries to help the witches and nudge the ruling couple in a less murderous direction.
-->'''Fool:''' I hate [being a Fool]. But that's got nothing to do with it. If I've got to be a Fool, I'll do it properly.\\

** In the same book, [[GeniusLoci the land itself begins to react badly to the new rulers]]. It falls into this trope because it's not upset that the Duke and Duchess are evil--"good" kings occasionally tyrannize their people too. The problem is that they openly hate Lancre itself. The witches compare it to a dog--Lancre neither understands nor cares about its master's morality, as long as the master treats ''it'' kindly.
