So this is a journal that my characters writing in. Back to the story in 3.. 2.. now!

As a slave I am required to go on the hajj. My name is Kanku. Today was crazy, and we haven't gotten on the road yet! Here's what happened. I breathed feeling the cold air go through my lungs, I feel a sting on my right foot. I look down at my foot and there is a ant on it. I smack the ant off my foot, and I realize something. I forgot my leather sandals back on the caravan Master Wiki was riding on. It was the camel with 3 hundred pounds of gold, and rumor has it thats like a penny to Mansa Musa (He has 24,000 pounds) I look around and all I see is camels, (Mental Note: make sure the camels get water because they can only travel) servants serving in Mansa Musa’s tent (12,00 I have heard).

  I was looking around for a few minutes and I think to myself. Wiki, Wiki, Wiki. Then I spot him, I start running to him and I bump into someone. We both fall on the ground, papers  and journals fly everywhere. I look at the person I bumped into he has not the best cloths but better than mine (because I am a servant) he has dark brown eyes and curly dark brown hair he looked like my age, at first I think he is a Muslim scholar and then when I look at all the papers around me I see timelines and story's that's when I realize something. Griot, he is a griot. "Sorry" I whisper, he gathered all his papers and said, "Its fine, you were in a hurry I get it. What's your name?"

"Kanku"

"My name is Kalifa, Nice to meet you, but I am sure you have got to go. so..." He held out his hand gesturing me to take it in order to get up. I took his hand and he helped me up. I said to him, "Nice to meet you." I walked away having one sentence repeating itself over and over. This is going to be one interesting trip.

So how do you like it? Comment, Review, do whatever. I will publish the next part tommarow. Hope you enjoyed, Bye!
