During the violent and battering storm that hit the Scottish highlands, Macbeth and Banquo, according to the witness, claim to have seen three creepy crones high up in the hills. The night started with weather that had never been seen as bad as this in recent times. Macbeth was heard to say, "So foul and fair a day, I have not seen before," proving that the tempest really was ferocious. However, it was the claim by the servant that three witches had been seen by the pair, that has caused chaos and bewilderment amongst the Scottish people. They are now worried that some black magic is at work.]]> 2017-06-05 05:05:12 UTC https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/lp86nggjg0i7/wish/175163645 https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/lp86nggjg0i7/wish/175164169 Last night, the royal doctor reported having a very unusual conversation with Lady Macbeth about three old hags confronting her husband and his friend, Banquo, who happens to be one of the King's highest generals. According to Lady Macbeth, who was informed by her shocked husband, the crones have predicted that he will become Thane of Cawdor and then King. After defeating the Norwegians, Macbeth and Banquo found themselves caught in a violent tempest upon the heath, where they claimed to have seen three dark shadows, who's cackles echoed across the pitch black moor. Lady Macbeth thinks her partner has gone mad and has started hallucinating, therefore, she has arranged for the doctor to check on her husband.]]> 2017-06-05 05:16:22 UTC https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/lp86nggjg0i7/wish/175164169 10pward https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/lp86nggjg0i7/wish/175164171 Last night, in the castle, according to the royal cook, Macbeth and Banquo were overheard whispering about their sighting of three creepy crones on their way back from the battle against Norway. The cook is also believed to have heard that one of the old hags prophesied that Macbeth would one day become king.]]> 2017-06-05 05:16:24 UTC https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/lp86nggjg0i7/wish/175164171 https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/lp86nggjg0i7/wish/175164192 Last night after the terrifying, violent battle between Scotland and Norway, a Scandinavian prisoner claims to have seen Macbeth and his partner Banquo encounter three unearthly figures high up on the Scottish hills. This has caused civilians to panic and hide in the castle grounds, leaving their homes unoccupied; they are afraid that black magic is being thrust upon the land. We are still unsure if this event was real or a Norwegian hoax but it has certainly caused fear and stress amongst the public.

A guard, named Hamnet, who was patrolling around King Duncans' sons' chamber in the castle, at the end of the day, has witnessed with his own eyes an electric, deadly, blue lightning bolt as it shot down to the ground with a massive KABOOM. Hamnet, then saw five dark and wicked silhouettes; three of them were hunched and being pulled to the ground like they were magnetic. The other two figures, were standing in a shocked position, while the three ghostly shadows twirled and dance to the sound of the thunder like they controlled it. ]]> 2017-06-05 05:21:13 UTC https://padlet.com/fbrassleay/lp86nggjg0i7/wish/175164398
