Prince Louis: A Short Story
Once Upon a Time, there was a prince in a far away land called Conde Navarre. And in Conde Navarre, Prince Louis was standing in for his father, King Asher, as Prince Regent while he was away on a Diplomatic Mission to negotiate peace for the kingdom. While Prince Louis was sitting on the throne, in the throne room listening to two old men argue about church and state taxes, when he caught a glimpse of Lady Eden. He was so petrified by her beauty that he stopped what he was doing and stared in awe as she graced him with her presence. Lady Eden was a very beautiful girl: with long blonde hair, perfect skin, and big blue eyes. Price Louis got off the throne and nearly ran to her to give her a royal greeting. “How do you do on this fine day in Conde Navarre” said, Prince Louis. …show more content…
“I am also doing well today. I have been listening to those old fools go on and on about how I should raise the state taxes and lower the churches, if this is what I will have to listen to when I become king I would rather pass the throne along to someone else.” “You do not mean that, you love being prince, heir apparent, next in line for the throne. You were born into this position that many people dream of, and if in the wrong ears, you and your family will be discarded like to trash to further someone else’s political ambitions. You must never speak that way ever again.” said, Lady Eden. “I understand, I guess that my life is pretty awesome compared to many others in my kingdom.” said, Prince Louis. But little did he know that Lady Eden and her father, Duke Edman, Duke of Horse Hounder where planning to steal the thrown away from Prince Louis and his

    It appears as though human beings did very little in shaping and controlling their own destinies in early modern Europe, and the works of The Prince, written by Niccolo Machiavelli in 1513 and The Return of Martin Guerre, written Natalie Zemon Davis in 1928 helps to exemplify this view. The Prince is a primary source recollection of Machiavelli’s thoughts on what makes a good ruler. He discussed his feelings on Princedom on how a prince should rule and conquer power and land, by defining the various types of principalities. He then ends by stating that he believed only Lorenzo de’ Medici, in which his book is dedicated to, can restore the fallen Italy. Completely different from The Prince, The Return of Martin Guerre is a secondary source novel written about the trials of Martin Guerre. Martin Guerre was originally from Hendaye a small village in the French Basque. At a young age, Martin, his parents and uncle fled their homestead leaving behind their ancestral property. When the family became well settled in the village of Artigat, a marriage contract between Martin, age 14, and Bertrand de Rols, a mere child, was drawn. After some years have passed, Martin reluctantly “stole” a small quantity of grain from his father, the guilt and embarrassing situation soon drove him out of the village. As his uncle quoted “The Basques are faithful; they believe that theft is the work of a debased soul, of a low and abject heart; it bears witness to the demanding neediness of a person ,” with that said Martin could not face his father and fled for many years leaving, his parents, wife, son and patrimony behind. Many years passed and “Martin Guerre” returned, the village was shock and was in disbelief. After some time however, close friends, including his uncle Pierre noticed traits on new Martin that old Martin could not posses, such as his need for riches. Two trials were set in place to see if this new Martin was the real Martin,…

    “Your majesty.” Catherine shot a glance up at her grandmother-in-law, but then looked away, unable to meet the Queen's piercing eyes. The 143 year old was seven feet tall, her neck downwards surrounded by a dark synthetic body suit. Her face was a wrinkled prune and her eyes replaced by black artificial beads. “I think you know why I'm here.” Catherine said. The queen's smile had vanished. She said nothing. “You have reigned for over one hundred years.”…
