        Franco Felibia was a rich famous man. He wrote plays, wrote fascinating quotes and was a magnificent artist. He didn’t know how to write aside from his name because he didn’t bother to. Instead he always hired a scribe. His last scribe died from old age and was remembered as the best scribe Franco has ever had. He went in search for new scribes and put them to a test. They must keep up the pace so he won’t have to repeat himself. They must write neat and of course in a fancy way, and they should know how to write of course! But as each person got applied to the job they got fired because they couldn’t do the tasks Franco had said.

        Mr. Dancom saw the apply paper nailed on the business board and decided to apply for the job. He was in need of money and so it was worth a shot. He quickly told his sister and she replied “You should apply to the job! Then we would get enough to eat and drink!” Money doesn’t come easily in these days and it was hard to get a job. So he set off to see if he could meet the requirements and get a job.

        Franco was getting sincere about getting new scribes because they couldn’t do their job distinctively. “Please take a seat. Now, what is your name?” “Jonathan Dancom, sir”“Do you know how to write Mr.Dancom?”“Yes, sir”“Can you handwrite properly?”“I think I do fairly well, sir”“Very well, lets try you out.” Franco snapped his fingers and his butler came with a paper and a bottle of black ink and a feather pen. “Now for your first task Mr.Dancom. My scribe must also give me ideas during the term.”“What should the topic be sir.” Franco thought and stared at the nearby bookshelf (which was fairly big) then spoke.“It should be of a young boy who is longing to become a knight. But there is a little twist to it. Mr.Dancom, any ideas?”“If you want sir.”“I would like to hear it.”“Very well,sir.”
