[The priest is doing a sermon at church]:
PRIEST: The chastity vote is made by the purity of the body who was borne as sinner when is delivered it to the Lord. You shouldn’t prostitute, remind yourself from the original sin… God punishes the fornicator with diseases and more diseases! Remind yourself: the body is a divine creation, you shouldn’t violate it with carnal desires. You shouldn’t explore the lust, because it’s the devil’s way. Bodies that don’t follow our laws to the way of Kingdom of heaven will be condemned forevermore. Remind yourself that the devil watches our steps and expect us in the hell, where there is eternal pain and suffering, where witches are burned and where are those who don’t regret for your sins and they don’t enter in heaven.
The man seems each day more lost in temptation
If he looks for the prostitutes then commit a fatal sin and the hell expect him
There is scalding fire, giant monsters and agonizing pains.
There are huge cauldrons to the condemned, where are black demons with long tails and wings of sparkling bats, animal horns and goat hair waiting to make the party!
Do not even imagine what it is!
There must be deep wells where crawling and giants snakes have huge and sharp teeth to devour condemned beings.
Lucifer is a cursed one who persuades fools to commit evil.
Well, sinners indulge in worldly pleasure, but everything goes like the wind
They surrender to that which is fleeting and doesn’t belong to the divine kingdom.
Our orders brings hope for the coming days
Our indulgence buys a piece in the heavens, for the eternal rest of the soul
Our lives will be purged by the Lord
I can’t imagine a life saved without our forgiveness.
[The sermon is finished and a troubadour comes asking for priest’s attention.]
TROUBADOUR: Your holiness, I have come to bring you some of my songs for your appreciation, perhaps I may ask for some help from your wisdom to think beyond what I think and thus be inspired...
Oh, how beautiful is purity on earth and the freedom of birds!
Oh, mistress, come and smell the roses.
Oh, maiden, where is your ideal?
A beauty that is dizzying,
In words, it fills with wisdom
And in the spring it blossoms!
Take good care of your body, which is the door to the heavens.
Take good care of your image, which is to be like the divine
I want the perfume in a sacred body
That even in tears he sleeps
And dream with your mouth on the nights of passion
How precious is the tender look of the girls
That on a day like this they flatter themselves with my singing!
PRIEST: Well, my brother, there is a little sweetness in the words of the pure maidens, who hold in chastity the light of fertility.
TROUBADOUR: Priest, I have devoted my life to sing my love. I will marry one day, but I’m afraid of being attracted by the gaze of a beautiful lady of this village, the one who carries jasmine flowers in her hair. His gaze is so single… I would like to dedicate new songs to her as my way of admiration. May I ask to you permission to take my art to the kingdom?
PRIEST: The arts made by troubadours are allowed provided it doesn’t show heresies and another way of a serious sin. Scorn and cursing make part of our daily so I wish good luck to you!
TROUBADOUR: Thanks for your attention, your most reverend.
These cathedrals with their colorful stained glass windows are so huge that seems invocate our asleep giants from inside to celebrate their praises, sermons or just chants of the earthly choirs. They carry their splendor when it seems touch the skies, searching on the lofty catch up the celestial angels from entrance of the heaven of eternal life. Oh, my eyes were inebriated so much with this charm! Your gargoyles guard your doors ensuring that here don’t come any evil spirit which with the evil hit our souls with a face of darkness, bringing your shadows instead of the light. From inside I see rosettes that seem bring the beauty inspiration of the flowers in your shapes, from gorgeous stars of the cosmos which form fascinating drawings like if it keeps a mystery from inside brought by the prophets. I see beautiful adornments on the walls, on every stone carved carefully, to erect its walls in triumphs that one day separate our worlds from spirituality. […] Once I came to listen to a sermon, and I do not know what I was hearing, but it seemed like symphony music tender and soft like the wind breeze that touches our faces and drags the leaves to the ground cheerfully. I hardly heard it… I seemed to imagine corals singers whispering melodic words in my ears... At that moment the church was empty, and I had a vision of an angel sitting under a rock looking at the horizon of a battlefield... Your skin was white, it seemed made of wax… How I wish to have mysterious visions, though my entry into this temple that bears the Lord’s universe seems like as a one…
TROUBADOUR: I feel a tight on my heart seeming like a stone of rough diamond on chest, I don’t know if my love will be matched. Beautiful lady who listens my song. These sudden doubts that insanely cause me an uproar! I should have the courage of a warrior to risk myself for hear a “not”. Perhaps I should hide how much lonely I feel myself sometimes, when I wake up by the morning and eats the sweeter fruit thinking about your kiss. I will sing and show how much I would love enjoy your company, how much I want see her and look her in the eyes and say what I fell in my heart. But the lady seems so far away… She seems the most beautiful of all ladies from this village, it’s like the most fragrant of the flowers from the forest, the most splendid of the forests which vivid colors amazes me. Her skin is white like a glass of milk, her hairs are black like ebony and her cheeks are pink. There is a bright in my eyes just like the moon on the starriest nights… I will go to meet her to decla
[The prince makes an announcement to the realm]: PRINCE: On this Friday of May, I announce our reunion here to honor our defense. Our celebrated and brave fight is because of a dreaded journey. There are creatures on this realm possibly and none of us knows your tricks. Some soldiers of this realm are being summoned by the queen to hunt them, to get the precious treasures of his living! There will be fame and glory to the warriors! And big parties and celebrations to whose defeat them! The creature is like a beast, so feared by the most cunning people So greedy that can kill Hungry, it will be waiting for his prey. Look, mortals, such preciosity, a cave filled by relics! See, every, see that! Which bravery is able to confront it? We will see, my dears Warriors, whom will take the sword to cut it head! What award, honor and g
[The squire talks to knight]: SQUIRE: Well, at this time the nobility of a knight should be to save ladies, protect the realm from enemies and fight in armed conflicts, if it would be on the contrary… A knight makes the oath and honor his word, But there are bad knights who don’t keep their promises. These don’t keep virtues and then they are punished But there are those who don’t fear and they serve as example on more arduous battles. And I don’t say just in bloody battles, bur in those which celebrate the life in all circumstance. There is those who looking for peace in the dreamed Holly Land Your journeys are long, like trips made to the other side of the mountains… They are not like gods, but we find inspiration on them… These knights are focused by eternal search of a miracle.<
QUEEN: Look right up high, dear Lady, there is enough ornaments to boast your power? Is there enough beauty as a growing symphony of stars in the sky? I doubt about myself sometimes, about what is enough to satiate my wishes... I think there is a poor decadency on this realm when desires doesn’t rebuild above my feet… But it’s possible that I am getting older each day, as years goes by. At any moment of life, we have to confront ourselves with the epidemic evils which desolate our palaces… The gold never seems enough. The gold isn’t that which buy a place in heaven, but it made many get their hands dirty with blood in the name of discord, in the name of ambitious passions. My subjects made good portraits and wrote manuscripts also… But the bloodthirsty colors of my hand let me each time more darkness, as if the slander was being put on my face or as if it were more and more involving my soul to a supernatural power, of a hidden nature from the darkness. Some kinds of castles keep tr
[The princess is looking for her horse at castle]: PRINCESS: Where is my horse? Did it get lost? It disappeared like the hottest star which goes away with the sunset! I should look for it immediately! Oh, that animal! I left it so alone these last days, and in its innocence, must have awake the wish to run for the forest, because is from there it came. I should rescue it before it’s too late! This just can be a nightmare! I heard sad histories about the place, they said that there are caves where lives a dragon and so many brave knights never came back from there. I must find my horse before it becomes food to this scary beast! That horse was a gift from my mother that I won in childhood, I was only five years old. It was a time which I was really happy, I liked play and spend moments with some animals gifted by my vassals. There was a time that I loved them, that I refused to eat meat by the simple fact that I didn’t not to see innocent creatures dying and
[The prince, the troubadour and the knight enter in a tavern]: PRINCE: Today I want to enjoy the night as much as the tavern keepers enjoy the drinks, music and plenty of food! There are innumerable ladies in the village, but the most interesting is in the brothels! I will enjoy the prostitutes’s flesh which waits for me! And you, my dear gentlemen, what will you do tonight? SQUIRE: Well, I’m at where there is drink! Ha, ha! KNIGHT: I’ve been thinking about glory and honor. I don’t know about those who sin, those who abominate the word of God, where there will be salvation. Well, tonight I will think a little and meditate, I don’t drink and I believe that is important keep ourselves in the order of purity. PRINCE: Well, how you are not funny… The drink is a door to the edge of madness, of drunkenness! But and you troubadour, what will you sing? TROUBADOUR
[The prophetess announces the arrival of the Apocalypse in the village]: PROPHETESS: There is a blood moon... Respectable gentleman, it's with huge dread that I announces: the end is near! We see in this world a fake light which comes from obscurity of the prince of darkness! He wants to trick us. We are here obeying the Lord from all heart and he disguises himself and offers a prohibited fruit to us like in the Eden’s Garden… Adam and Eve were ashamed about being expelled from the heaven and now the humanity must to confront a terrible evil: the tricks of temptation! The people struggles to find the way to the skies, but still didn’t are prepared to what will come! War and pestilences! The eternal damnation seems every day closer to us! PRIEST: There is who say that spells must be prohibited on this realm! The Saint Inquisition is haunting witches because their conducts are bringing more plagues to us. Slowly, man won’t have healthy if there is still spells
KNIGHT: I'm really surprised by your courage for today, my dear squire, for your loyalty. You know that all the cunning in the world is too little for someone who decides to face a dragon. Let us be recognized as beings who carry a certain glory by eliminating the danger of the surroundings of this kingdom! We will become legends! SQUIRE: But what a boast! What vanity! They barely think of their lives and want a reputation! Well, look at that dense grove, there are verdant grasses with fresh air and fruit-bearing orchards down there and a deep lake, with crystal clear water full of floating flowers, that's where I wanted to be...! KNIGHT: Well, stop being silly! Then when we find the entrance to the cave, you come right behind me. The other knights will be coming soon! [The knight and squire stop on the way and talk to the other knights in the group]: KNIGHT: Knight, it's with great dexterity that we are here to deal with a fearful destiny th
