A fair sight

I awoke in a sweat to fair music... Like as in carnival music. Was I dreaming? Or is this a dream... Which tense is my dream in? [wham] OW, past tense. I'm not dreaming right now, I just banged my shin on the dresser. What a kingly thing to do.
I'm suprised that I forgot that today was the fair, I must have been too busy helping my siblings. I wonder how much was a dream? Is Adam really a jerk or was that just a dream and the first days they were here he was just tired... I hope he was just tired and I was dreaming.
Fair here I come, who cares if I'm a king. I don't want to act like one.
I'm going to enjoy myself untill they pull me away!

Disappointed

I'm in a cloud... I died... What can you really say when your dead.
I have to watch in horror and disgust as Adam takes the throne by force and right.
He is now the eldest of the three siblings left. Two are sad and one is not... I really don't know what to say.
Adam forced his way into the castle with his band of ruffians and now is the leader of my kingdom. Can anything go worse? Well considering I'm DEAD, probably not.
Come to think of it what the heck am I doing? I'm dead why am I just sitting here in a cloud talking to myself. Is this really what the afterlife is like? Witnessing all the crimes from a birds eye veiw and not being able to do anything? I don't have any messengers or telephone or way to give myself a body to help people?
Ok I really thought dying would be a lot cooler...

My last wish

I write this with a feeble hand and heart for I have been poisoned. It's not fair, I have a life, a kingdom, a brother to bring to justice! Adam must repent but it might be too late. It doesn't matter how I was poisoned because theres no cure for it in these ages. And who do you think was blamed first for it? You guessed it, Adam.
I don't believe he did but my people won't listen, they're sure it was him.
The doctors are hoping for a miracle and lots of quiet for me so I had to sneak this entry, my last wish is that Adam be forgiven.
I must rest.

A close call and the point of no return.

It was too close, oh the bomb that is. It was an inside job and all my servants are being interrogated but it was going to be pretty bad if it went off. The bomb was situated in the hay pile above the stable, it would have taken out almost all the roof. A stable boy managed to find it when turning the hay. It was very lucky because the hay in the loft is only turned every month and the bomb only had three hours till detonation. We defused it by dumping it into the river (old bombs used black powder I knew that and watertight cases weren't invented yet). Since security is very tight on the outskirts of town who could have done it but Adams group. It disappoints me because I hoped he wouldn't go too far with it, I don't know if I could redeem him now if he turned himself in or got caught. The question now is, how far will he go? And if he's caught will he repent.

Ants helping for once?

Today the ants really helped for a change... It was under circumstances that I wouldn't have preferred but hey.
They helped me by spying on guess who? Adam. Now I know why he was being such a jerk... He's a rebel. He started a rebellion in my city. I used the ants to find their location and numbers
(I just told them if they didn't help there wouldn't be any food to make crumbs and they pitched right in).
I found out when Adam was missing in the morning. I thought he was just going for a walk untill he was seen in the middle of a mob. After he was seen in a mob he was reported to have been hanging up posters, of course not nice ones.
I've tried to hide it from Mary and Henry but the irratic troop movements and the disappearance of their brother at the same time is too timely.
I hope this doesn't get too out of hand and I hope Adam turns around, he might be a jerk but he's my bro.

Younger brother vs. grumpy teenager

Ok, today was just a little wierd. Adam is acting even more resentful, what is his problem?
Is it that his siblings are getting more attention? Or maybe that he doesn't want to be here?
Or maybe that I use too many question marks when writing... I hope not because that would mean he reads my journal.
Anyway, Mary and Henry went off riding today with the hunters (for some reason Adam didn't want to, said he had "business") so I got them out of my hair for today. Of course everything has it's effects and this time the effect was I had to spend more time with Adam. My grumpy older half brother that obviously resentful that I got the throne. I almost wish he had gotten it. I doubt that you've ever had an older step brother that hated you because you were king but if you ever have... You would know how much it stinks spending a whole day with him.
I tried playing board games with him but he always got bored of them. I tried fencing but he would never do anything but lunge at me and since I didn't want to be skewered I tried talking about castles (since he apparently had a nice one himself). But even my last little hope of doing anything with him shriveled up as he cooly ignored me and walked away.
Any suggestions... Dave, if only you could help.
