RAO The next few weeks that passed saw Crane working in and out of Castle Desanti under Sir Remmington's supervision on simple tasks required of a page (for one thing, one of Crane's new duties included caring for Sir Remmington's horse, which was a brown mare named Annabel) . On the better side of things though,Crane had the chance to have riding lessons with Sir Remmington from Mondays to Saturdays during the morning, and for afternoons, Crane still had to attend regular classes with other pages in the castle library under the white-haired scholar named Pierre Pascal - a.k.a. PP ,who also happened to be BB's uncle.Talking about the Orwell

EYES TO THE FUTURE "Oy, young page!", came Sir Remmington when Crane met him in one of the castle's hallways. "Why are you so sweaty in the early morning?" "I just finished some jogging rounds Sir", Crane lied, standing at attention. "Do you have any errands you'd want me to do for you?" "Not exactly an errand but something really important", Sir Remmington answered. "I want you cleaned up and dressed right for a big occasion today. Fifteen minutes max!"

 THE GIRL WHO WANTED TO BE A KNIGHT A frail infant girl lay crying among the ruins of the once-proud kingdom of Dahl, which had been destroyed by the army of the Orwellian king Ivan-Alric Desanti the day before. Wrapped in a small white blanket with burnt edges, the child coughed weakly as the minutes passed, with her body losing out to the harsh winds of the coming winter. Then by Heaven's grace came Sir William DiMather on his white horse, who was one of King Ivan's noble knights. Sent to Dahl to scout for any war survivors to take prisoner,  Sir William heard the infant's cries and found her just in time - right before Death could p
