“Ross I have something of utmost importance to discuss with you,” he whispered, “but we must make it quick and keep quiet. It is about the King and Queen.”
“What is it Lennox?” I said. “Is there something wrong?”
“Ross, Macbeth is corrupt. There is evidence pointing to him being the murderer of King Duncan. He did not gain this position without the help of demons and malevolence …show more content…
My King and Queen, are you safe?” I slowly rose up and ask. When I look up at them, Macbeth’s eyes are wide open, and he’s shivering like a leaf in the wind. On the other hand, Lady Macbeth is suspiciously calm, as if this otherworldly occurrence never happened. Lennox and the others rise to their feet and stare at her in confusion. Lennox opens his mouth to speak when she shuts him down. Face red as a tomato, she grit her teeth and sternly said “Do not speak of this situation to anyone!” She rushes Macbeth to a door leading to another castle room. “If you as much note this to the King after he recovers, you shall offend him. Ignore his behavior, or you will face consequences!” We all nod at the Queen and the almost unconscious King before she enters the next room and slams the door shut. The servants and other guests are still shaken up by this strange experience, but they hastily work to clean the destroyed dining room.

In fact, this may be the reason why Banquo has disappeared.” Lennox gets up and dusts off his robes. He offers his hand to me to help me get off the floor. “We have to create a plan to reveal his corruption. I will report the news to Macduff, and he will find a way to reveal this monstrous fiend.”
I clear my throat, trying to gather my thoughts on what way I can assist Lennox and Macduff.” I think I will have to stay here. I need to take the risk of continuously observing the King and Queen. Though I have lost my trust in them, they still trust me as a loyal messenger. Let us find a way to communicate to each other to exchange information.”
I start to leave the room. I turn to Lennox, and point at the door. Before we fully exit the room, I look at Lennox. “Thank you for revealing the truth to me,” I said, “Now we must get back to the dining room quickly before the King and Queen suspect us of
