It was a sunny day, and I was walking with my older sister Kaitlyn. "What is THAT?" I pointed at a statue of 3 men talking. Kaitlyn rolled her eyes. She's not the best sister. "Don't know the story of The Talkers?" She sneered. "No." I shot back. "Gee, Jess, everyone knows it." She said. "Not everyone." I said. "Alright, alright, I'll tell you." Kaitlyn said. "Long ago, here, in California, 3 men thought it would be hilarious to play a prank on the king. This was a REALLY long time ago, by the way. So, they sent letters to the kings wife, the Queen. They wrote the letters to make it seem that the letter was supposed to go to the King, and it was pretending that the King had been writing to the lady, saying that he was interested, but saying that she wasn't. Like this:

Dear King, 
I did not know about your love towards me. Thank you for writing that love letter to me, it was very flattering. Unfortunately, I do want to upset the Queen. We will just have to write in secret. 
Love,
Dalphenie

The Queen got so upset that she searched the entire kingdom for this, Dalphenie. While she was walking, she heard the 3 men talking about the prank, and laughing. So she trapped them in copper statues and they've been here, forever since."
