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.
