There is a way to achieve uncertainty:

## Everyone is a rabbit

The prime example is Watership Down, a movie about rabbits that **kills characters left and right like there's no tomorrow, but so does nature. Everybody knows that rabbits are nature's fluffy popcorn, right?**

Other examples include: [All-guardsman party](https://1d4chan.org/wiki/All_Guardsmen_Party), [The Walking](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Walking_Dead_(TV_series)) [Game of](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_Thrones) [Dead](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Walking_Dead_(TV_series)) [Thrones](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_Thrones)

Based upon the underlying logic of these, you can achieve uncertainty.

Let me elaborate: Game of Thrones works because it's "realistic", and in real life, there are no plot armors. In real life, Zrínyi Miklós had the best chances of driving the kebab off from Hungary, and he was killed by a boar. The truth is that nothing is certain, in fact, our universe had likely come into existence by chance, by a large quantum fluctuation.
