Macbeth killing Duncan The twilight dimmed and waned above the untamed forestry embedded with lies and deceptions which enfolded around the castle‚ the final resting place of Duncan the spineless former king of Scotland. The pathetic slab of cement they so call a gravestone will mark a new era for Scotland. One simplistically swift slice and a barricade of emotions are the only barrier from me‚ heroic Macbeth conquering the rights to king and the riches that in lie within the very title of king

Every day is filled with death. A human‚ a dog‚ a bird‚ a mouse‚ a bee. Which life is worth more? Do they even have any worth?
