Sample Partial Narrative

Macbeth has finally done it. He is King!! I walk through the
crowded streets after Macbeth’s coronation. My friend in battle now sits
on the throne. Macbeth seems to have always been lucky. First he won a
beautiful wife, then he became a war hero, and now he is King. No one
expected his rise to power.

Soon after the coronation, I walk through the castle gates of Castle
Macbeth, and much celebration can be heard. Purple, red, and gold
banners hang from the ceiling with illustrious flair. The warm aroma of
roasted pig fills the lighted halls. All of the nobles from the land are
in attendance tonight to celebrate the new King. Macbeth enters the
hall and addresses the crowd, “You know your own degrees; sit down. At
first and last, the hearty welcome.” Cheers ring out in the great hall.
“All hail King Macbeth,” everyone shouts! Immediately I become aware of
the change in Macbeth’s appearance. Macbeth looks different now that he
does not wear a soldier’s uniform. Macbeth is clothed in a deep purple
robe of royalty. A shining gold crown sits upon his brow. But his face
is looking haggard. Since our last meeting, there is not a sign of my
past friend in his face. Macbeth appears to have the weight of the world
on his shoulders.
