Reading Diary Week 11: March's Ears

This story was quite interesting to me. A rich and powerful ruler named "March" owned countless possessions and almost everyone took a liking towards him. He had one secret he kept from everyone; he had the ears of a horse..yes the animal. He had animal horse ears. Literally nobody ever knew this secret except for his barber. He told his barber to never tell anyone. Slowly dying from guilt the barber had to tell someone, so he told the ground. Eventually crops grew from the ground where March's secret had been told, and the crops made into a musical pipe by March's servant. Upon playing the pipe, only words were produced; the words were "Horse's ears for March" repeatedly. March almost killed the servant until he played the instrument himself and realized it had been "charmed".
