Katharine white the minstrel.
Katherine didn't a family well except a german shepherd dog that followed her around since she lost her family a couple years ago for robbery.Katherine pretty much lived a small cottage by herself .Katherine was lucky if she got to eat before sleeping being a minstrel not always came of with a good pay .Katherine would get dressed and get her cittern and see if she get hired or get money from people passing by her and give a couple copper, silver or even gold coins.
During some of her street performances Katharine heard a guard scream at her “you get over the lord ses your presences this instance !” Katherine grab her stuff and started running but got caught quickly by the guards so she started screaming “let me go you foolish beast!” but they kept dragging her up the pathway to the manor to see the lord.
In shocked Katherin just continued walking,soon she was in front of the lord and lord told “oh you came!” “ i heard you your the best minstrel in town who can play the cittern.” the lord said with a happy smile.
Katerine now knowing what's going on said more excited then never said “Yes my lord.”
happy to hear that he offered her “in that case i will pay you 100 gold coins to come play at the party i'm going to throw.”After that Katherine walk back to her simple little cottage and got ready for the party. and she started getting ready she noticed something wrong with her cittern , it wasn't there. she looked all over the her cottage but never found it. she sighed “ where is it,it must be somewhere around here i'd be sure i had it.” she said with a gloomy sounding voice. She went around looking for her in town and retrace your steps but she can't remember exactly everything she did. But then she remembered where she dropped, it was where she was running from them scary looking guards.She went back to where she had ran from the guards, but for her disgrace the cittern had been broken into million pieces . She sighed as She went to see at the shops to see where were she could get one quickly. But she couldn’t Find any and she started thinking of going up to the manor and tell them that she couldn’t but she was scared to get her head cut so she didn't go no matter what.
So Katherine went back to college In search of her savings she saved for a nicer costume for her presentation to see if you could buy another cittern before the party. but she remembered that a cittern cost more then she had.So katherine whent to Jake house another minestre who played all types of instruments. katherine ran and ask if she could borrow any sparing cittern for tonight, but jake said “ sorry i can't i also performing to night but if you want i can let you borrow it right and see if you can collect some money for a new cittern.”Decade Katherine an idea ,she left with cittern and left.
katherine later on started singing about great stories passed down to from her family your which is common for many ministries to do. after a while us singing she got 2 silver coins and 1 gold coin enough to buy a new but cheap cittern.
finally katherine that was needed now she had to dress like a typical minister's did with a bright colorful costume from head to toe. Katherine ready to entertain entered the manor. She was surprised at its size and its beautiful paintings which she could only imagine ever have in her dreams. After that she got ready and sanged the story that she had experienced That day and many more. soon after the party ended is she had been hired to be the Royal minestres of the manor. now Katherine will be able to sleep in the manor in comfortable bed made out of wool.She had three cheers in celebrated with a friend and hurried back to her home getting her few things she owned and left back to the manor before sunrise and found her new room in the manor and prepared her new songs she would perform for future parties and or other events she were invited to which were many for the royal minstrels like katherine . The end.
