The Jongleurs Tale
The young King was not easy to please. Many had tried their hand at impressing the young monarch: jugglers, animal trainers, barbarians from afar. These attempts were met with yawns.
One day, a young jougleur came into court and requested an audience with the King. Those in attendance were certain the young storyteller would fail as many before him had. Then, he began to speak.
He told the King a tale of heroism and bravery. He told of far off places and daring feats. He told the King his own history, and the young King was gripped. He hung on every word until the end of the tale, and thanked the jongleur for his story.
The storyteller left the castle without ever having to tell a story ever again... except this one
