If I was in the black death time period then I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't survive because it was so terrible. There wasn't just one disease, but there were multiple diseases in the black death. The worst thing about it was that it was carried by rats and fleas. You can't see rats most of the time because They were always hiding, then you can't see fleas because they are so small that you need like a microscope to see them. So if I did survive then I would be impressed with my self. 

Anyway now that we know what it was, let's take a look and see how life was during that time. I'm not 100% sure that this was how it was like, but I can give my best guess. I think that the sky was gloomy, and people were always coughing because of the disease. I don't think that a lot of people were outside because of the rats and the fleas, they might jump on you or something like that. I don't think that the people were that public or that friendly because they didn't want anyone to get near because they either had the disease and they didn't want to hurt anyone. Or they don't want the disease so they stay way from everyone that was near. When it first came I think that people were acting like normal because they didn't know that the disease was there, and if someone had it they thought it was just a cold.
 
As I walked into the courtyard I hear the knight training, Then all of a sudden my uncle came in front of me and said that a pope has asked him to go to war but he was too old. He said that I should be the one to go to war and protect a holy place. he said that the trip will be next week and I had until then to decide wether I wanted to go or not. I was thinking All that day, f I went I could die of natural causes like being sick, a disease, or I would be ship wrecked if we went by ship. 

I wanted to go and give popularity to my family and represent my family name. I would also be fighting to protect a place of God, so I would go to heaven by doing his bidding. But the trip would be long and I would be like in my twenties before I come back home. That's if I do get back home, but I'm the nephew of the leader, so I think I might be protected by knights or some guards. It took a lot of thinking, but I decided to go and fight for my family, my country, and most importantly, my God. 
 
In case you never heard of Charlemagne, that's because he's also known as Charles the Great, he was also the king of the Franks. You may be wondering why he is so great, well first of all he is the king of the Franks, and the other reason is that he ruled most of Europe. He was also the ruler of most of Europe; that's why he ruled it. The reason he was called the Great was because he was an excellent conqueror and ruler. 

He was a killer, but he loved education. He loved it so much that he built schools for the children all over Europe. Then he tried to take over a fort but he couldn't do it. They took down their outside troop sand thought it was so easy that they went to the main area with out their armor or shields. When they got there they were out matched they retreated and ran across a bridge. One man held back a gruop of the enemies, until they broke free. Then they were slaughtered. One lucky arrow was guided and hit Charlemagne right in the throat, that was the end of Charlemagne.
 
I thought that I have found a friend after a long time of loneliness, but it turns out to be another person who wants me to be his slave. I have to be his slave because if I don't be his slave then he would take me back to Stromford where I will be killed. I don't want to go back because I was proclaimed a wolf's head for a crime I didn't commit. Then there are some people who I absolutely hate Cerdic, and John Aclyffe. John was the one who accused me of the crime and Cerdic betrayed me when he said he would help me. Let me start at the beginning where everything went wrong.

I was about thirteen when my mom died and then I ran into the forest and fell on a rock. When I awoke I saw John Aclyffe and he tried to kill me, luckily I escaped and went back to my village. When I got there I saw two men who went to my house and destroyed it. That night I went to the church where there was my only friend. Father Quinel, he cared for me like I was his child, because my father died of a great plague. He said that he would help me and that I should meet him by a house tommorrow night. That day I found out that I was commited a crime by two guards who walked by. That night I was betrayed by Cerdic who said he would lead me to Father Quinel but instead lead me into a trap, and then I found Father Quinel dead.
