Squires

It was my first day of being a knight's squire. My friends were giving me advice on how to address the knight and how to act around him. Between the two of us I figured we would be able to think of good ways to behave around the knight. They told me that I should be careful of what I say or do because it might affect how people think of the knight. Some of the jobs a squire has are to make sure the knights armor is clean, do errands for the knight and carry his weapons if he competes in a tournament.

On the day of the tournament I got to his tent the knight was already waiting for me, he told me I was late. He said his name was Sir Vance, but I should have all ready known that. He told me I would have to armor his horse and shine his armor before he competed.

After the first week I really hated being a squire but it was worth it because in order to become a knight I had to serve as a squire for two years.
