Survival And Protection

Sir Dustin looked at me with a confused expression.

“Excalibur?” he uttered a question.

I answered, “Yes, that shall be the name of your sword from this henceforth.”

He retrieved his 'Excalibur' and sheath it. He stood up to me and asked, “But what exactly IS Excalibur? I don't think I've ever heard of such a sword before.”

I tucked my hands behind my back, holding that stance as I walked away and gestured for the silver knight to follow me. As we strolled through the winding labyrinth of the garden I began to explain the origins of the name, Excalibur...

“The sword known as Excalibur is an old tale of a medieval time”

“Medieval time, sire?”

“Yes, well... It's a time long before the great world war, a time of simpler time kind of like this one but less... Evolved.

“Evolved? Sire?"

“Well... We're not savages, we do have some knowledge of science and technology."

“Why yes, sire. You do have a point, but didn't we lose all that during the great world war?”
