Once there was a widowed Queen who had three boys she cherished. One day she called them all forth and asked how much each loved her ! The first said mother I love you more than all the power and riches in the world. The second said mother I love you more than all the girls in this world. Finally it was the youngest princes turn saying mother I love you more than seasoning. The mother was confused and asked "is that all?" And proceeded to call her son fake, disowning him and throwing him out. The loyal servant of the prince came out to help and the prince asked for nothing but mouse skin and food. Once the servant returned the prince departed and went off to the next kingdom close by in France.

There the prince met King Louis the XIII and became his servant. Soon the way of the prince aroused the suspicion of the king for he was not a typical servant. One day upon interrogation Louis found out the princes identity and changed him from servant to one of his male courtiers. The princes name was now changed to Charles and became quite close with the king.
 Eventually The king  ended his marriage with his wife and decided to marry Charles. Charles' mother was invited to the wedding and on the day of the wedding the food was served to the guests without seasoning. The mother was upset and said why would I eat something so plain and disgusting I rather die then have some food without seasoning. Upon hearing this Charles spoke and said once you said that you hated me and that I was fake for saying that I love you more than seasoning but now you're saying that you'd rather die than eat food that's not season so what's the truth? In this moment the mother rejoiced and was like I'm so sorry I love you so much I accept  you into the family again and I'm really happy that you're doing so well you guys should just be happy I'm so proud of you and I love you. After this they had a really Crunk party and they lived happily ever after.

Sails to America

 Arriving to the new land was the best part of this whole trip I had been eager to explore. My other crew members were extremists when it came to their beliefs, it was a miracle for me to survive. Getting off the ship, I felt a weight lift off . This vast new world would offer more knowledge.
It took a week before we saw any natives, and our first interaction was caught off guard. It seemed they had been preparing to face us with force but we looked to them as if we were exotic creatures. Our clothes was of interest and our simple tools appeared to be evolutionary to them. We had a native to translate for us. He had been given to us from a previous expedition tor words the south close by the Aztecs.

In the beginning three months it felt like an adventure seeing so much unused land and resources. Our leader decided it would be best to gain trust and ground before we gathered any precious materials. With this began our long journey to misfortune. We knew the natives had precious metals and gems by their intricate jewelry. However we were not allowed to comment in order to seem more humble in our reasons for coming. Soon enough the natives began to notice our struggle with the land. Bringing us maize and animals to survive upon. Our greed however began to grow and now we pushed for more and more resources throughout the months. On the sixth month there was a storm. We tried to work hard for ourselves but we lost many supplies and had to reconstruct shelter. These were one of the worst times. The storm had created a weakness within us and had we not been on good terms with the natives, we would be dead. As soon as we could recover we asked the natives for advice and help to prepare in the future. On the seventh month in October it began to grow cold. Our race to collect supplies became essential and we grew restless in want of more precious gems. It seemed to show since the natives became more hesitant to help and share. This did not sit well with our leader and many of my crew mates. They seemed offended that we were not being given more. I seemed to be the only one to understand that it was not ours to take. In the end however it was what we had come here for. This was for our Queen not for us to befriend others.  In November we began to kill and capture people to gain advantage. I feel ashamed but many of my people raided, hurt and did unspeakable things to the natives. It was all hypocrisy. This was not the way of God. In all I did nothing to help these helpless people. We were in fact the savages not the natives. The last two months we took everything we could, we had left so little people alive and we were now the rulers of the land. The land looked as though the life had been stripped away. I learned the devastation so few could cause. I thought perhaps home would make me forget yet returning home I felt guilt come in waves and a blow everyday. Ignorance would have been better then ever wandering.
