Life as a villein!
Ello there m'name is Adney Atkins and 2 years ago I lived a life as a villein. A villien is a person who is bound to land and owned by the feudal lord basically a slave who doesn't have freedom or dignity, we had to work for the lord day and night and extra work if needed for something important. A lot of us villein's have had enough of being bossed around day and night while paying our taxes and we thought that took the Shakespeare and I thought gossling Googleberries that's the end of them dragging me around ,at midnight I shall make my escape to town but hell I am going to have to stay there without being found for 1 year and 1 day luckily I am not the lord's stinking enemy.
" cloths, water , food….." oh there you are I was just packing for my mission impossible.
After when I got in to town everything was so different no peasent's but the excitement stopped right there.
Knights with horses filled the crowd looking for a poor soul villein trying to save his life but in less than a second I was located and was taken back.
Funnily enough the king letted me go because he saw in my eyes I have a future worth living for and so did the others and said this isn't the end ,we will meet again when the Pandora opens and when silence falls as he whisperd in my ear but what in the name of the mother parsnips did that mean you overgrown furball.
and do you know what i think the Pandora is just a fairy tale.
