Act 5
Mood: insane


I am worried about my wife. She has lost her mind and can’t control her actions. As we prepare for war, I am not filled with fear because I cannot be killed by a woman born man. I just need the doctor to cure my…. What was that scream….oh why! Why must this all happen! My wife is dead. How could this happen? I must stay focused on the war. I am invinc… My words are lies. The trees are moving, how is this possible. The prophecy, the witches, they were all correct! I must still fight with honor. I am afraid this is a sad day for us. I will die with a sword in my hand, fighting for my country. I guess I’ll find out who is not woman born soon enough. My friends, my people I am afraid this is the end. This will be my last post as I go out to fight…always remember everything I have done was for my country. Duncan, Banquo, The McDuffs, my people, my country, I am sorry for the crimes I have committed. Goodbye.






Act 4
Mood: paranoid

Things around here are just getting more and more weird. The three ghosts like figures came back again and showed me more visions they had. I finally figured out that they were witches who could predict the future. I really don’t understand what they were trying to show me. However I do now know who my enemies are and who may have the urge to rebel against me. This man, who they said is a threat, has lost my respect and will never be able to defeat me. The witches told me that I cannot be defeated by a man who was born of a woman, and that I am safe until Birnam woods move to Dunsinane Hill whatever that means. The last thing the witches showed me has really got me thinking. I don’t know if they were warning me or trying to show me something about my past. I am really starting to get creeped out by their visions and it’s starting to mess with my mind. I must begin to take care of my enemies and eliminate any threat to my power. If my enemies want war, they’ll get war. My actions shall not be questioned and everyone should know they are what are best for this country. Everything I do is for this country.


Act 3
Mood: angry, scared

This truly is getting out of control. This is just absolutely horrible. As king I will not stand for any of this. What type of horrible traitor would murder all these great, innocent people. Whoever is doing all of this is ruining the kingdom! Duncan and Banquo were two of the greatest men I knew. They were both great friends to me and I’m filled with nothing but sadness. These deaths are really bothering me and messing with my head. I can’t focus on anything and I’ve been having these terrible visions. But as king I have tremendous responsibilities and I must be able to keep control of my emotions and stay sane. I have a great kingdom to run and I can’t let this get in my way. Everything has just been so chaotic lately and I don’t know what to do or what to tell all the citizens. Most have them have probably heard the rumors that I killed the guards of Duncan. Yes this is true but I did that horrible act for Duncan. They should have stopped the murderer and they deserved to die to. I was just trying to be honorable. I have not been able to sleep through the night at all the past few days, and lady Macbeth has really been a pain lately. She is getting on my nerves and I can’t let this bother me. Everything has just been so chaotic lately and I don’t know what to do or what to tell all the citizens. I have not been able to sleep through the night at all the past few days. She is getting in my way and has been questioning my decisions. She needs to be reminded that I am the king and whatever I say goes. I will not let someone who is lesser than me tell me what to do.


Act 2
Mood: sad, devastated

Today was not a good day. At all. The events that occurred in this kingdom were just terrible. We have lost a wonderful man and a great king. I don’t know what to think about Duncan’s death. I was just sleeping in my room with my wife and woke up to find that such a horrible thing happened. It is truly a shame that someone would do such a thing. Who is so heartless to kill their own king! I’m having a really tough time with his death, it is really bothering me. Lady Macbeth keeps telling me that everything happens for a reason but I just can’t get this awful feeling out of me. There are many people around here who are looking pretty guilty…why would Duncan’s own sons flee the country right after their father was murdered. That seems pretty suspicious to me. We will find whoever did this terrible deed. Nobody will be able to ever get away with committing such a crime. I am truly hurt by what has happened but we do need to start moving on. We have to become stronger and continue to be the greatest country in the world. RIP King Duncan, you will never be forgotten.




Act 1
Mood: Happy, Overwhelmed 


Today was a great day. I started the day off right with a nice bowl of Wheaties before going off to battle. As I’m fighting the enemies army, Mcdonwald, a traitor to Scotland, decided to challenge to a battle. So we began to duel and not even 5 minutes into the fight, he dropped dead from the blade of my sword. Just like that I became a hero and the king was sending me praise. Then as I’m with Banquo,  these three ghostly figures came out of nowhere. They started telling me what my future will be like and some of their statements had already came true. Earlier I had just recently been named the thane of Cawdor, and then the three figures told me they knew it would happen all along. But what they said next really confused me and made my mind wander. They said that I should soon become king. The only way that this statement could become true is if King Duncan dies. What a horrible thing that would be. Although it would be great to be king why would the ghosts infer that Duncan is going to die. Sometimes I feel like my wife wants me to become king more than I even want to. I’m just really confused about everything that happened. So comment if you have any advice or suggestions!
