THE VERY SECRET DIARY OF KING PELLINORE
Day One
Good to be the king! Lord of all I survey, etc. Queen expert sword
polisher, tho too much in the mead. Many sons loyal & strong, except
Percival. Might be poof. Oh well. One in every family. Kingly stubble
outstanding. All in all, go me!
Day Two
Have met new friend from out of town, Questing Beast. Not much to look at
and not interested in smiting, but knows all best gossip. No idea Uther
died last year. No one tells me anything.
Still king.
Day Three
Told queen about Q. Beast. Not v. understanding. Q. Beast understands me.
*sulk*
On plus side, still king.
Day Four
Dreadful day. Big fight with queen, much drama. Goblets thrown: 1. Called
me pervy beast fancier. As if!
Still king.
Day Five
Well, maybe fancy Q. Beast a little.
Day Seven
More fighting with queen with makeup polishing afterwards. Exhausting.
Recent mead shortage at castle possib. contributing factor. Also Q. Beast
has started making demands, i.e., pixies for breakfast. Promised to
import from Cornwall at great expense. Oh well. Castle treasury just
sitting there.
Day Nine
Disaster! Pixies arrived but gave Q. Beast fearful indigestion. Claimed
too much pepper, whatever that is. Left to seek relief. V. lonely without
Q. Beast, as mead shortage over & queen now unavailable for polishing.
Day Ten
Q. Beast not back yet. Inconsolable. Not even being king helps.
*sulk*
Day Eleven
Q. Beast still not back. Big fight with queen. Goblets thrown: 4. Left in
huff to find Q. Beast. Concerned if left castle, would still be king?
Decided to take crown with me, just in case.
Still king, even on road.
