COMMON WORD STORY 18 ARAB STEEL CONQUERS

This is a writing exercise using common words. I have collected a list of 17,000

words. From this I have chosen twenty words at random. The exercise is to write a story with
at least ten of them. I have included my story along with a translation into other words.

Here is the list:

  1. PRINCIPAL
  2. AREOLA
  3. CROW
  4. MACKINAW
  5. SPLINT
  6. REBUT
  7. PRITHEE
  8. COLLIER
  9. RIGID
  10. MODAL
  11. FIGHT
  12. SUBVERSION
  13. DAMASCUS
  14. EMISSION
  15. TRAMPLE
  16. GOVERNOR
  17. DOGTAG
  18. VIVACIOUS
  19. CANDID
  20. DUFFER

Here is my story:

The governor of Damascus crowed in a candid interview. He rebutted claims

that the reconquest of the crusader kingdoms was by subversion and treachery.
He said the fight to trample those areas was principally due to the
quality of Damascus steel.
Arab colliers and metalergists produced a sword with the right combination
of rigidity and flexibility. It splintered inferior blades ruined by emissions
from substandard coal and metal.
It allowed for a vivacious response againt foreign intrusions.

The mayor of Damascus boasted in a frank statement. He refuted claims that
the retaking of the crusader kingdoms was by stealth and treason.
He said the fight to beat those areas was mainly due to the superiority of
Damascus steel.
Arab coal miners and metal specialists produced a sword with the right mix
of bendability and strength. It shattered lesser blades spoiled by impurities
from bad coal and ore.
It made possible a lively reaction to invasions.
