narratorium

The material that is used when the narrator won't allow you to go somewhere because it's protected by plot.

Narrator: The entrance is barred by wooden planks, the only other way is to go through this really creepy labyrinth that is filled with monsters and will advance the plot.

Character 1: Couldn't I just burn the wooden planks?

Narrator: No!

Character 2: Couldn't I just fire my laser sword and disintegrate the planks or something?

Narrator: No!

Character 1: Couldn't I just melt it with my acid crystals or run it over with my working tank or maybe just chop it in half with one of my 7 axes?

Narrator: No!

Character 1: Why not?

Narrator: Because it's protected by a layer of plot/narratorium.
You can't go there! It's sealed with narratorium

Narrowing the scope

This phenomenon occurs when someone attempts to eliminate options. A person would do this because it’s helpful for trying to make a guess or help make a critical decision.
Jason gives a riddle to Robert that has 8 possible correct answers. Robert receives a hint from Jason. From this hint, Robert can now safely eliminate 4 options out of the 8. Therefore, Robert is narrowing the scope

narri

jokester who in literature or as in human history has been someone who had to act for his life to live to the becoming day..

If not been enough funny for the king/one-who-owns-him who didn't like jokester's performance anymore which means his act had got dull.. death would've been nearer than escape....

also look for Bard (in finnish u add just i to the end and u have finnish word of it)
In english:
He was acting for his life because he was The Kings -Jokester-.

In finnish:
Hän näytteli elämänsä puolesta koska hän oli Kuninkaan -Narri-.
