Onwards to thy castle, mighty knight, where safety shall await us and thy bravery shall be rewarded.

β€žThis is intolerable!β€œ

β€žEven combat is a partnership... for a little while.β€œ

The princess invites thee, Derpy Hooves, but the knight must make the decision.

Oh what a magnificent castle thou have brought me upon :pinkie:

Now show thy princess where she rests and lock the door behind, for thou shall be rewarded.

WAIT WIKIPEDIA? WHAT?

Β 

Β 

Village leader[edit]

InΒ EnglishΒ villageΒ life from the late 17th century through the early 20th century, there was often one principal family ofΒ gentry, owning much of the land and living in the largest house, maybe theΒ manor house. The head of this family was often the lord of the manor and called β€œthe squire”. Lords of the manor held the rank of esquire by prescription.[2][3]

Squires were gentlemen with aΒ coat of armsΒ and were often related toΒ peers. Many could claim descent from knights and had been settled in their inherited estates for hundreds of years. The squire usually lived at the villagemanor houseΒ and owned anΒ estate, comprising the village, with the villagers being his tenants. If the squire β€œowned the living” (i.e. "wasΒ patron") of theΒ parishΒ churchΒ β€” and he often did β€” he would choose theΒ rector, a role often filled by a younger son of the squire of that or another village. Some squires also became the local rector themselves and were known as squarsons;[4]Β aΒ portmanteauΒ of the words β€˜squire’ and β€˜parson’. The squire would also have performed a number of important local duties, in particular that of justice of the peace or member of parliament.

Such was the power of the squires at this time that modern historians have created the term β€˜squirearchy’.[5]Β Politically, during the 19th century, squires tended to beΒ Tories, whereas the greatest landlords tended to beΒ Whigs.

The position of squire was traditionally associated with occupation of the manor house, which would often itself confer the dignity of squire. It is unclear how widely the village squire may still be said to survive today, but where it does, the role is likely more dependent upon a recognition of good manners,Β lineage, and long family association rather than land, which, while relevant, is nowadays likely to be considerably smaller than in former years due to high post-warΒ death dutiesΒ and the prohibitive costs associated with maintaining largeΒ country houses.

InΒ Scotland, whilst esquire and gentleman are technically correctly used at theΒ Court of the Lord Lyon, the titleΒ laird, in place of squire, is more common. Moreover, in Scotland, lairds append their territorial designation to their names as was traditionally done on the mainland ofΒ EuropeΒ (e.g., Donald Cameron of Lochiel). The territorial designation fell into disuse inΒ EnglandΒ early on, save forΒ peers of the realm.

Β 

YAY :muffins:

Β 

Β 

and then there is this...

Β 

"Beginning in the Middle Ages, aΒ squireΒ was theΒ shield- orΒ armour-bearer of aΒ knight.[1]Β At times, squires acted as a knight’s errand runner or servant.[citation needed]Β Use of the term evolved over time. Initially, squires were a knight’s trainees/apprentices. Later, a village leader or aΒ lord of the manorΒ might be called a squire, and still later, the term applied to key public figures, such asΒ justices of the peaceΒ orΒ members of parliament. In contemporary American usage, squire is the title given toΒ justices of the peaceΒ or similar local dignitaries."

What trickerie is this?

Your tounge writhes like a serpent.

You'll hold no court with me, a lowly squire believing themselves to be gentrified?

Β 

A squire is the shield-bearer to their knight.

And although acting as my errand runner and servant.

I shall teach you the chivalric code as i train you as my apprentice.
