I regret to inform you that there has been a tragic accident on the island of Cyprus resulting in four deaths and an extreme causality. Unbeknownst to me, the cause of this dispute had been going on for a while with the prime suspect being Iago, Othello’s Ancient. Before I report the results of the tragedy, I’ll first explain the reason behind Iago’s motives. Iago believed that “Abroad it is thought that [Othello] ‘twixt [his] sheets” (1.3.368) instigating his hate for Othello, which he brutally referred to him as “an old black ram…the devil…lascivious moor” due to his race (1.1.89-125).

Of course his plan was successful and created more tension between others and myself for a while around Cyprus.
