Description
by Kristen Mulrooney (Author)
Hark Peasants! Let this Bard guide you on the journey to becoming a better version of your peasant self.
Imagine if the Middle Ages had its own set of influencers and life coaches. Their collected wisdom would produce this very guide. Here, the ultimate Bard takes readers on a self-improvement journey--with lessons that any peasant can pick up and instantly start implementing into their lives. Examples include:- How not to make a fool of thyself at the local tavern
- How to make a scene at a jousting tournament to stay relevant
- How to make your tiny home into a pleasant place to reside (spoiler: it involves sweeping out the rats)
- What not to wear (is chainmail in or out?)
- And what to do in case of a bear chase
