Living Moment

Those brief, special, and glorious moments when it all comes together and you are in the Middle Ages.

A "keeper" from the Steps; posted 13 June XLI/2006.

On the morning of the War Crown, where fighters declared for which contender they would fight. A Squire was armouring in our encampment when an older, most dignified Knight passing by in full armour with his helmet under his arm, paused and asked;

"Have you declared?"

"I have" answered the Squire, and named his man.

"Good." replied the Knight, "Let's go make a Prince."

I still feel a shiver and a lump in my throat when I recall that moment.
