A New Reign


Hamlet is gone. My friend is dead, but with him the king, the queen, laertes. It was a scene that deserved to be written in Homer's epics. In the court of Denmark a great duel was waged between laertes and hamlet. The victor did not walk away, as hamlet fell to the floor due to underhanded posion by the king. The show closed with lord fortinbras sweeping into the palace, cliaming it his own. I pleaded with him to allow me to retell the story of hamlet, to explain how this misery had occured. He agreed and I will be announcing to the kingdom the tale of Hamlet and his strike at revenge. I am the lone survivor, allowed to tell a tale for the ages. a new day has dawned, the age of hamlet is dead.

2 Sailors, 1 letter, 1 Hamlet

I apologize for any messy writing. I am walking and writing as I travel across the grounds to meet Hamlet. I've just received a message from two north sea sailors. They were giving me a message from Hamlet. A message that read that he was on his way back to Denmark because he had been hijacked by pirates. Odd. The two sailors also had letters addressed to the King by his son in law. I am excitied to see what Hamlet has to present me, and to hear his story of how he is back here. How strange and wild this day has become. It started with a soggy bowl of corn flakes and has turned into an adventure for Hamlet.

Will keep you posted

The Fair Ophelia

Singing, it has always been a blessing of the cherubs. Sadly it can be intertwined with maddness and pity. Following the murder of her father Ophelia went mad, insane with grief. She sang to herself in lyrical nonsense. Sometimes she sang quiet as a mouse, other times she sang with the roar of a lion. The king and queen were worried about her. They kept good keep of her in her state of anguish until... until she was found face down in a pond outside the castle. Although there were no witnesses at the moment it was pronounced an apparent suicide. Ophelia's grief for her father turned into the courts and especially Laertes's grief for her. Poor Hamlet was shipped off to England without giving any final goodebyes to Ophelia. The atmosphere of the entire castle has changed. Solemn grief blankets the crown of Denmark.

Banished


Hamlet has been cast away from his native Denmark, off to the island of England. The king decreed it and enforced this move that hamlet and i have discussed before. Hamlet expected it willingly, no doubt scheming about how to get at Claudius. He was escorted out by Rosencratz and Guildenstern. I would be willingly to bet this isn't the last we've heard of Hamlet. There is no telling what my buddy has up his sleve. Although since he has already tried the route of caution, I would be willing to be that he will have some violence in him.
