scene 4

I wanted to stay and help my father!

You had no right! I wanted to save him!

And you would’ve been killed all right!? They would have - It’s unbelievable. Has this happened before?

Question 4

We can’t even feed ourselves.

Answer 4

Sorry

Question 5

It’s not your problem.

Answer 5

Well of course it is! I should have known! I’ve lived here my whole life! I mean look at us, the great nobles. We study history and philosophy and art and you would think that all that knowledge would teach us something about the world. I mean, I’m not naive. I understand that we fight for things, it’s in our nature. But so is peace and-and contentment. I mean there’s my father off at the Crusades and for what? to kill more Saracens? for a parcel of land we don’t really want anyway, it’s not as if we’re going to live there in all that sand and heat, and all that money that they use to mount the war could be used here at home to feed our people.
