Sleep, Drastic, Fortune


Duke Jeremy Bartholomew had five adult children, all gathered for the reading of the will…

Jonathon gets the Fortune of Wealth - he gets the money.
Sarah gets the Fortune of Shelter - she gets the house.
Roger gets the Fortune of Knowledge - he gets my library.
Mary gets the Fortune of Adventure - she gets my menagerie.
And Franklin gets the Fortune of Sleep - he gets my best bed.

No one was happy. Why’d he split things up in such a stupid fashion? All of them made ready to take drastic action against their siblings. Which is what the Duke wanted.
