Dear Diary,
A three day holiday was declared by the king and queen. The next morning, Mansa Musa entered the city with his entourage. Ali Baba provided his prized steeds to lead the event. It was a magnificent spectacle worthy of a great king. The parade of North Africans stretched for miles and flowers were thrown to him from the balconies as they passed by. He tossed gold coins to the cheering crowds who would never forget the day that became a legend for the next millennium. Behind him followed the elves mounted on the enormous scorpions. While Mansa Musa would return to Timbuktu, the elves would make a home here and live quite happily ever after. Ali Baba and his men were last to enter the city. No longer would they be called thieves and traitors. We all knew very well that they were heroes that fought the tyranny of the kingdom. They marched hand in hand with the soldiers, many who would go home to become shopkeepers and fathers.
