Oh, the murder of Duncan is so devastating! Who would have committed such a treacherous thing to such a capable king? I could only suspect three people.
I strongly believe that the murderer may have well been Macbeth. His mannerism after the murder seemed rather suspicious. After some bloody evidence was found on the chamberlains, Macbeth had proclaimed “O, yet I do repent me of my fury, that I did kill them.” I paused for a moment and thought about it, his response was rather unusual. In addition, he kept talking and mentioning how he was not able to control his feelings of loyalty to Duncan and how he was furious enough to kill irrationally. Although to me…it sounded more like he was justifying, instead of crying out real passion. However, there are still two other suspects to consider.
It may have well been Duncan’s two sons as well, Malcolm and Donalbain. I told Ross about their takeoff to different countries and my cousin responded about how thriftless ambition may have taken Duncan’s life away. I guess that conclusion may have been possible. It’s likely that the two sons murdered their father to receive the throne, as they fled as well, making it seem all the more suspicious.
I have not concluded who the murderer might be. But whoever it may be; let them hope that I should not discover their identity, because if I were to, I would seek revenge for Scotland on the murderous deed!
