I am writing this letter to you as a noble general of Scotland, and an honest man. As you are well aware, the death of our beloved king has affected us all in various different ways. Duncan has been tragically murdered, but his death has not been justified. His two sons, who remain suspect, have fled the country, and the guards, the only beings directly at the scene, have been killed without questioning.

You were once an honorable man, but I am afraid too much ambition and greed has taken over your mind. These are traits not fit for a king and I know you are not an arrogant man at heart, you know right from wrong and that what you’ve done is unspeakable. Guilt is a big burden and sleeping peacefully while knowing that you’ve done this horrendous deed is unimaginable. Now, you must own up to your mistakes, clear your conscious so it doesn’t change you further into a man you
