"I fart in your general direction!"

People today, I dont think, realize that becoming a monk in these times was a privilege. It was a sparse monastic life, but they were educated, fed and housed. This was, at that time, when these "luxuries" were sparse. But it was better that than being a serf. Life was tough back then. Many monks didn't give a shit about their religion, they wanted a better life and move to up the ladder so to speak. Just look at some of the popes that were horrible People. They wanted power and wealth.

Perhaps the best way to achieve fame and fortune in medieval Europe would be to simply retreat to a hermitage and invest the necessary time to master the skills required to fart on command, and eventually to do so musically.

How did parading his head prove he was dead, because people did not know what he looked like as no photographs or TV, social media etc. So it could've been any head they had lying around, not necessarily Eustace's?

I'm mostly not very charmed of surreptitious advertising. When it begins, I always feel scammed. In return, most of the times I end up unsubbing the channel or not subbing at all. Because I'm highly allergic to advertisements. Especially when you can't seem to get rid of it without paying for it. Like a constant blackmail. Then you try another video, and another and another, but no, you can't start any video without having to watch yet another advertisement for something that you'll never use. Advertisement is ALWAYS meant to cheat your money. Advertisement is always a scam.

I first heard of Eustace the Monk years ago in High School. I played I.C.E's Middle Earth Role Playing game, and they had a Suppliment Book for the game called Robin Hood. It was based in England during the times of Robin Hood. Eustace the Monk was given as a historical example of a type of Outlaw.

The sleep was (barely) adequate and most people awakened around one a.m. for childcare or sex or minor chores and then returned to bed and slept until dawn.

No talking during breakfast is an excellent idea.

So necromancy and joining the clergy in the medieval ages is not actually that contradictory, in fact most necromancers were actually clerics! This is because most necromancy and demon summoning at the time called upon the power of god, Jesus, the angels, and the saints to bind and compel a demon to do your bidding rather than actually making a pact with these beings. So this allowed the magical practitioner to still rationalize this activity with leading a good christian life (or not in this case).

Was this the same monk that joined Prince Edmund's conspiracy to seize the English throne?
