Story Planning: A Trusted Friend

Kanni the Unlucky
This story is about Kanni who is very unlucky until he finds his childhood friend who is a king. The king brings him into his home and give him a job. He begins to regard Kanni as family and he trusts him immensely. The kings business partners told the king he should not trust Kanni. The king did not listen to his advisors and continued to trust Kanni. One day the king had to take a trip and he gave Kanni the keys to his house so he could look after it. Kanni overheard some burglars talking about robbing the house and he began to come up with a plan to defend the house. He gave the workers instruments and they were all very loud. The burglars heard this and feared that the king had returned home already so they fled. The next morning the kings advisors found the weapons and footprints of the burglars and were amazed that Kanni could be trusted.

This story was very interesting to me because the king had full faith in his friend even though his advisors were telling him not to trust the guy. I think this is an amazing testament to how a good friend can be trusted over anything. I think that a good friend is one of the most valuable things a person could have. Therefore, I would like to write a story about a friend that is reliable and can always be counted on. I think my main goal of this story is to be detailed. In my past stories I have struggled to be very detail oriented. This has been a comment on many of my posts so I would like to use this last story to correct my bad habits. I just want to write one fairly entertaining story that is grammatically correct and jammed full of details.
