章 47: From apprentice to knight From apprentice to squire

Once upon a time long ago when monarchs were the norm on earth, dragons were on the loose and there was the occasional sword that needed to be saved from a lake a couple of would-be knights whose instruction was in the final part (the equivalent of present thesis today) only missing one assignment.

They had to collect all the objects on a list and deliver them to the captain of knights at sunset, only then could they hold the title of knighthood the list contained the following items 1.-a homemade cake 2.- 1 liter of fresh juice 3.-iron to forge taken directly from the soviechu mine 4.-mesh robes of an ancient gentleman 5.- a bouquet of wildflowers.

Nothing too complicated at first glance is a simple task both cadets brought their respective objects to the captain on the agreed date and time when he saw them together with the collected objects he murmured regretfully -it's a pity -said the captain- today alone one of you can be called a knight, the other can only be a squire.
