Code of Honor

My brother often tells me that we have to uphold our family honor as members of the House of August. Like today, when the other nobles were joking about the decline of the House of August again, I attacked them.

Uncle Berol intervened and scolded me... then made me write out the Knight's Code one hundred times, but I don't regret anything!

I've finished writing out the Knight's Code one hundred times, but whenever I think about how furious Uncle Berol was I lose my nerve. I don’t think I can face him.

I need a brave soul to deliver this Code of the Knights Scrapbook to Uncle Berol for me.

Gossip
Sigh... I wonder if Phil will learn anything from this? I have my reasons for asking him to write out the Knight's Code. I hope he will grow up a little.

On Completion
As I expected, Phil's copies of the Knight's Code are a complete shambles! It looks like he totally missed the point of this whole exercise: "The strong do not indulge in heroics but meditate, securing victory by virtue of their greater wisdom". Sigh... Phil and his brother Louie were entrusted to me by my good friend Philip when he died. Philip dishonored the August House by a grave error of judgement. He tried to make right his mistake, but never really succeeded. Then he passed away ... This is why I insist that Phil and Louie be careful to protect the family's honor. But Phil is still young and does not understand such things...
