“So did you hear about the marvelously brilliant thing I did when we went to trade with the low land elves? I was going to show up the guy I was travelling with by putting my knife next to the one he had just thrown. I grabbed for my waist knife and was going to make a big show of flourishing it and managed to rip off my belt instead. Pants hit the ground and fell on my face.” Tizbeth laughed and inhaled in the sweet heather from the hills surrounding her village. She wished she could have convinced the counsel to let her be a trade delegate so she could roam the countryside. She had never travelled to the sea or even to Loch Ness where a serpent still swam. After an hour, Ovalles conjured minal globes and they played the child’s game they should have outgrown. The goal of minal was to race globes to a mark, normally a tree and back. It didn’t take much magic once you had the globe. Tizbeth was good at getting her globe to fly close to her opponents’ messing with their magical control without losing her grip. She had stopped playing in the village because she had to ask others to conjure the globes. Ovalles had just done it, without making her feel lowly and they had played as they continued on. * * * * …show more content…
The mark was on the edge of the protected Sofria land. Their village was named Split Tree for the natural marker however Tizbeth thought it would be better served to call the place “Braided Tree” or “Twisted Tree.” It looked like two small saplings had been planted too close and grew together. About four feet up, eye level for Tizbeth, was a blue orb with the diameter of a dinner plate containing the three rings of Jaline. Tizbeth tapped on orb with a fingernail. The smith in her wanted to know what it was made from. It was nearly clear but wasn’t glass. The tink was

    Macbeth is a play that starts with a successful couple and ends in a tragedy. Lady Macbeth, the wife of the ruthless soldier Macbeth, plays a key role in the play. Lady Macbeth is one of the most powerful female characters in literature. Unlike her husband, she lacks humanity as we see well in her opening scene where she calls upon the ‘Spirits that tend on mortal thoughts’. Lady Macbeth persistently taunts her husband for his lack of courage to kill Duncan, even though we know of his bloody deeds on the battlefield.…

    Normally, it was not unlike Kolda to rise before a human had any right to, on the cusp of an ink-blotted morning, when the trees were still working tirelessly to shake the vestiges of dew from their waxy-leaves. When, on the horizon, a burnt orange ribbon lined its lip, radiating waves of indigo and cobalt and casting the world beneath it in an eerie, complacent glow. A creamy fog would trickle across the hyssop field from border of Sylph Grove, a merciful cover to nature’s cities beneath, blotting the cotton-hued blanket with splotches of bold lavender. The fog brought the smell of the mountains with it, mating with the wooden and charcoal scents of her home, to wrest her from her dreams. She would obey, rising seamlessly, donning her fur-lined…

    William Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth tells the fictionalized story of Macbeth’s rise to the throne. His ambition is spurred by Lady Macbeth who feels that Macbeth will not be strong enough to undertake the necessary requirements, in their minds, to gain the titles of King and Queen. The characterizations of both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth undergo complete reversals, and the characters who readers are introduced to at the beginning of the drama barely resemble the people whom they were. The beginning of Macbeth introduces Macbeth as submissive and hesitant, yet extremely dedicated. Macbeth may be Thane of Glamis which holds a position of power, but he is very submissive in his relationship with Lady Macbeth.…
