Who said 'Most Royal Sir Fleance is ' scaped'?

The first murderer said, 'Most Royal Sir,/Fleance is 'scaped'. In Act 3 Scene 4, he appeared at the post-coronation banquet that Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] was holding at the royal palace at Forres. He informed Macbeth of the throat-slitting end of Banquo in the forest near the palace. Then he had to inform Macbeth of the failed attempt to do likewise to Banquo's son, Fleance.


Where do the murderers accost Banquo and Fleance?

In the Shakespearean play, Macbeth [d. August 15, 1057] interviewed two murderers about the killing of Banquo and Fleance. He wanted the murder done away from his palace at Forres. The two murderers met up with a third that Macbeth apparently had hired separately. The three waited in the park near the palace at Forres. In that park, they succeeded in killing Banquo. But Banquo's son Fleance managed to escape.


What was the significance of Banquo's talk with Fleance?

Banquo's talk with Fleance was significant for the explicit concern over the violence of nature, and the implied concern over the witches' predictions. In Act 2 Scene 1 of the Shakespearean play, Banquo met with his son in the courtyard of Macbeth's castle at Inverness. He let Fleance know of his trouble sleeping. He was plagued with a concern over the uproar in nature, and the darkness of the night and of his own thoughts. It was possible that Banquo was tempted by the power that would be his as father to a long royal line. He also might have been considering what he could do to make the Scottish crown and throne his as well as those of his descendants. In Lines 8-9, he prayed for deliverance from the 'cursed thoughts that nature/Gives way to in repose!'
