My first time to make a story that was both a challenge entry and a sequel!

I had to attempt it three times before I made it all the way to the end if this Lear-like piece. Not a very easy read but, on balance worth it – if only for the dismayed aphasic maid at the end. You certainly should be ashamed.

I marvel at your ‘made’ magniloquence; it’s a bit of a tongue twister, ain’t it?

Tongue twister, indeed! By the time I am finished with these challenge enties, I might join her under that tree..
