However, Montressor can only laugh at this thought because he knows Fortunato's death will be far from noble and his pride will be soon is shattered in the dark depths of the catacomb. Another instance of foreshadowing comes with the trowel scene.

... his luxuries. Personally, I have been there and experienced this kind of stupor or addiction to a possession of mine. I met Denny Hippchen and Aaron Steinmetz during my first year at Shasta High School and these two young men awakened my interest in computers. A computer has been around me ever since. You could call it a luxury but now I am so used to using the computer that it is now a necessity. All of my homework is done on my computer, and it is one of my many ways of communicating. It provides entertainment, music, school needs, and many other things upon which I depend. In a sense, the computer has become indispensable to me. I am now to the point where I cannot live without ...

While Ethan was taking care of Zeena, it was suggested that they should acquire more assistance due to ...
