The Kill

I suspected Macbeth of regicide. Even though Macbeth was crowned King of Scotland, I felt he thought that in order to further secure his throne, he should begin killing off those he could not trust. Just the thought of this made my blood boil. I fled to England to persuade King Duncan’s son Malcolm to take the Scottish throne by force, and to restore the land to health and peace. Meanwhile, back in Scotland, Macbeth murdered my Wife and Children. This was unbelievable to me. I was craving revenge on Macbeth, and I knew I would get it. After finding out about this incident, Malcolm and I marched north and assaulted Macbeth’s stronghold with our English forces. When I encountered Macbeth, I only thought of taking his life. He boasted that he had no reason to fear me because I was born of a Woman. I immediately declared that I was born from my Mother’s womb - A caesarean section - and was therefore was not “of Woman born.” We continued fighting until I beheaded Macbeth, thereby fulfilling the last of the witches’ prophecies. I believe that I truly am a hero for defeating Macbeth. This tragic story happily ends when Malcolm promised to be crowned rightful King of Scotland, and peace was brought to the kingdom once again.
