Our forces have been fighting the Norwegians and the traitorous (former) Thane of Cawdor, Macdonwald, for quite some time. After a long fight, Macbeth swept in and led us to victory. A captain on site of one of the battles claims that the battle was going south (in favor of the Norwegians) until brave Macbeth fought through the swarm of enemy soldiers and and ended up displaying their heads like kabobs outside. After this the Norwegian king, Sweno, sent more men, but Macbeth and his best companion, Banquo, beat them with the same fate as the others. The Thane of Ross also backs this claim of Macbeth with the report of another battle in which Macbeth slays many more enemies for another victory. These battles have resulted in King Duncan’s refusal to let Sweno bury his men, the execution of Macdonwald, and the appointment of Macbeth as the new Thane of Cawdor. ]]> 2017-02-28 00:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156595489 THREE WITCHES CAUSING HAVOC aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156595542 Three witches have been spotted in Scotland! They are causing havoc among us. One woman was attacked and harassed by one just the other day. This sailor’s wife was minding her own business while eating walnuts she just bought from the market. The witch harassed the woman for the walnuts until she left. The sailor’s wife even sailed to Aleppo along with her husband on his ship called Tiger. To this day, the woman reports of not getting much sleep, headaches, and backaches. She claims that the witch cursed her and her husband. If you see any suspicious, ragged-looking woman around please report them to officials. We must get rid of any sign or person suspicious of witchcraft. This is not a foolish business. Witches are dangerous to everyone. Before you know it, everyone will be dead or in bad fortune due to these devilish beings! Rewards for captures start at 15 pounds. ]]> 2017-02-28 00:22:43 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156595542 aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156595831

Attended by several guards and kinsmen, he visited our beloved Macbeth’s beautiful castle in Inverness that night to celebrate the good fortune that Macbeth has brought to our country. Macduff was the first to see the murder when he arrived at the castle the next morning. Everyone was caught off guard by the sight of such a vicious scene. Nobody would have guessed that such an event would happen because Macbeth’s castle is one of the most peaceful places around, a bird would make its home there. Lady Macbeth almost fainted when she heard the news and carried away. Macbeth’s grief for his lost king got a hold of him and he went went dark eyed with anger against the guards. Macbeth claimed the guards were the ones to murder King Duncan so he killed them, but further investigation is in progress.]]> 2017-02-28 00:26:22 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156596026 aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156596216

Many rumors have gone around accusing the sons of Duncan to be the culprits of their father's murder. Since there is no evidence against this claim and the sons have fled the scene with no explanation, we must believe that it is true. Due to these events we were left with no King or heir of the crown. The whole country agrees that the only one worthy of the title “King of Scotland” now is brave Macbeth whom won our country over with his charm and ability to protect our people. The coronation will be held in the next couple days to avoid destruction of our established system. Please attend the ceremony to honor our new king! ]]> 2017-02-28 00:28:23 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156596304 aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156596626

At his celebratory dinner the other night he was acting very strange. Lady Macbeth and his attendants were trying to calm him down but he was hysterical. King Macbeth would not sit down to calm himself and if he did he would get right back up again screaming that Banquo, his loyal friend, was present among them even though Banquo was not in the proximity. He was out riding and never returned for dinner that night. It seems as though the King was seeing a ghost that no one else could see. One observer says that Macbeth, “looked pale, weak, and horrified while he had his vision. It was as though Macbeth did not want Banquo to be there.” Lady Macbeth explains the King’s outbursts as a mental disorder. This only raises questions towards the ability of Macbeth to by our King. It seems as though the stress that comes with such power is already getting to the best of him. ]]> 2017-02-28 00:31:34 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156596739 aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156596875
]]> 2017-02-28 00:32:34 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156596875 EVERYONE IS DYING aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156597013 Ever since Macbeth had been crowned king, there has been many deaths within the higher ups. Banquo, Macbeth’s most loyal kinsmen, was found dead in a ditch not too far from the King's Castle. He is suspected to have died the same night of the celebratory dinner when King Macbeth had that weird vision of his ghost. Macduff’s family was also found dead this week within their own castle. The murderers for both scenes have not been found. Macduff has his theories as to who could have killed his family and banquo but he will not release his information. Finally, Lady Macbeth has also been found dead but by her own hand. We suspect that she did it because of all the death around her was too much for her fragile heart. All these bad omens have made the people wonder as to if the once favored Macbeth is now doing more harm to our country than good. ]]> 2017-02-28 00:33:36 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156597013 aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156597471

He was passionate, brave, and stern when the time was right. He always did what was best for his people. Always looking out for us and making hard decisions that would benefit the majority. For example, when the Thane of Cawdor was found to be a traitor of our people, King Duncan did not blink an eye to dismiss him and hold him accountable for his actions by the Thane’s own head. This showed how he could be merciful and compassionate since the Thane has betrayed us before but also that he knew when he had to do what was best for his country. This was also his last meaningful decision before he was found dead the other morning in Macbeth’s castle. Although his sons Malcolm and Donalbain fled the scene and are suspected to have been their father’s murderers, there are flowers seen on King Duncan's grave that are said to have been snuck there by the two. ]]> 2017-02-28 00:38:21 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156597578 aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156597905

The knights went head to head against The Falcons in the championship game for the magnificent Golden Bowl trophy. The game was looking bad for The Knights in the first half. The score was 3 (The Knights) to 23 (The Falcons) going into halftime. The Knights came out of halftime as though they were a completely different team. They surprised everyone. By the fourth quarter the score was tied up at 23. Within the last minute of the game Sir Lancelot threw the ball to Sir Camelot for the winning touchdown by the Knights. There was some injuries and foul play by both teams in that last play of the game but the final decision made by the refs was that The Knights had won the game. This outcome upset many across the land as it traveled and some people even went as far as to riot outside of local Game Ball fields. Nothing will change what happened though. That said the teams will return home and prepare for next Game Ball season. ]]> 2017-02-28 00:41:41 UTC https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156598022 aszah_preuc https://padlet.com/aszah_preuc/a6nh4zolling/wish/156598107

Dear B, 
I would leave if I were you! I would not take the chance of being caught up in the middle of another crime or being killed. I would not mess with a person like that or underestimate them. They must have been insane or ill to kill a great and admirable man such as KIng Duncan. It doesn't matter if the suspect at hand is your best friend, family member, or loyal kinsmen.  They are only after power and if you seem to be a threat to that, they will come after you. To be honest you sending in this question is risky. They might see this and get even more untrustworthy and unstable. If you were not targeted before, you most definitely targeted yourself now. Good luck with keeping you life! Remember to only pack essentials when you are on the run and don't tell anyone where you are going!
-Abby
