The way that Shakespeare himself writes the story (excluding the Hecates and the witches part) is great from the build up of a changing main character and how his morals change. Personally I like the connection Macbeth and Banquo had together before the witches came to corrupt him, for example, in Act 1, Scene 3, I love how Macbeth and Banquo are actually interested and in a similar mindset of listening to the witches. If I was told I would have my kids as kings and that my friend would become a king too, yea I would tell the witches they are dumb liars but thinking about it would be cool. So when the witches melted away/disappeared before the others came, they actually wondered if they were right. It was that piece of information that led the story into a downhill slope of greed and trust issues around them and especially Macbeth, they started to realize the change around them in the story and saw the opportunities to make the predictions come true.
