Once upon a time there lived an honest and a very brave man called Knight. He and his villagers were very happy all the time. There life went smoothly until that horrible day. One day knight went to another city to meet some of his friends. When he returned to his village, the land was turned into a graveyard. Most of his villagers were killed and half of them were kidnapped by an unknown man named Boss. He left some clues for the Knight to find him. The main intention of the Boss was to defeat Knight and capture all the land around them. But, until the Knight lives he cannot obtain that land.
Knight ran to his house and opened his secret shelf which was there in his house beneath his bed. And there comes the sword, it was not a normal sword, which was a magical sword gave it to him by his father. Knight’s grandfather was the greatest warrior back in time, hence that sword inherited to Knight’s father, and now to him.
Knight got ready for his mission to rescue his fellow villagers from the cruel Boss and to give them their freedom. Knight started his way towards the road where the last clue showed. He interrogated people on his way and found the place called Nexus. Nexus - a magical place where it connects four lands,namely forest,desert,graveyard and finally mountains.

...ll over there he saw his enemy, the monster behind the attacks and kidnaps in his village. They started fighting, millions of projectiles exchanged and at last with his full strength Knight send his magical projectiles at dozens towards the Boss. Boss couldn’t do anything and he got killed and the villagers appeared as soon as he died. Then he happily rescued all his villagers and ran towards the door he entered. That place started vanishing bit by bit. Finally, they reached the door with all his kidnaped villagers. All those fellow villagers hugged him in joy and said their greetings. Knight felt a real joy when he met his fellow villagers, he even couldn’t feel his tiredness and he felt a bunch of energy flew from his fellow neighbors towards him and made his tired feeling to go away. Them as a happy family altogether went back to the village –to their homeland.
Finally, the awful silence radiated throughout the land. Everyone knew by then, if not before, that any chance for a reprieve was impossible. The young men would die, and the village would be saved. Only the sound of the loud, heavy truck starting its engine gave thought that perhaps this would not be the last carnage, the last sacrifice to this village, or the neighboring villages. Perhaps the big, lumbering truck would forever hold the watchful eyes of those evil enough to order the massacre of innocence.
The story begins during the New Year's feast in King Arthur's court. Then a green knight enters asking all of the knights in the court if they would like to play a game. The game is he will allow which ever knight that chooses to challenge him one swing with a battle ax to try and chop off his head, but in order to play the game, the accepting knight must meet the green knight one year later at the green chapel. The brave knight Sir Gawain accepts to the challenge of the green knight. Sir Gawain takes one swing and chops off the head of the green knight. Right after the green knight's head is chopped off he gets up immediately, picks up his head and leaves. Once a year passes, Gawain sets off on a journey to find the Green Chapel. He arrives at a castle in which a lord welcomes him to stay for several days (Gawain only needs to stay there for three). The next morning the lord makes an agreement to share everything he gets during these three days with Gawain, but Gawain must agree to do the same. During days one and two the lord's wife tries hitting on Gawain, but he only allows her to give him a few kisses. At these days Gawain shares what he got to the lord for what he has hunted those days. On the third day, Gawain finally accepts to take a magic girdle from the lord's wife, but he didn't share it with the lord. This magic girdle helped Gawain survive the three fatal swing's of the green giant's ax, only leaving him with a little nick. After Gawain survives these 3 swings at his neck, the green knight then reveals his identity and explains that he is Bercilak, the lord of the castle. He also said that the three blows were taken at him in regards to the three days of their agreement.
I had been in the village for all but a week when I realized there was something... wrong. There seemed to be an underlying atmosphere of fear and animosity. Of course, with my wide-eyed, innocent thinking at the time, I assumed the presence of Satan had damaged the townspeople 's trust of one another. Again, I blissfully accepted this, and I was wrong.

In life we have many choices. Some choices may be more difficult than others. At times as human beings we make the wrong choice, but also there’s times when our choice is the correct or the better one. Talking about choices the choices we make can affect our entire life overall or can just affect a small aspect of our life. Of course, with choices there are also consequences behind the choice if the wrong decision is made. This can sometimes re-shape our entire life and flip it upside down. Sometimes these consequences can be harsh punishments such as serving jail time for example. Through these consequences no matter how difficult they may be to overcome a lesson can almost always be taught. In The Wife of Bath’s Tale by Geoffrey Chaucer a Knight who has raped a woman and now will suffer consequences such as death. He escapes these consequences with the order of the queen to find out what most women want in life of course, The Knight thinks he’s off the hook yet some may argue that his punishment has just begun. The Knight committed a terrible crime by raping a woman and he did not receive punishment he deserved by what happened in the end of the story, the choice he had was very interesting and the Knight understands the nature of women.
A year passed quickly, and it was time I set out to meet the Knight to receive the return blow. On Christmas Eve I found myself a welcomed guest at the castle of Sir Bercilak. The whole time I was there I was unable to put my impending death at The Green Chapel out of my mind. Bercilak and I had a deal that whatever we won each day, we would turn over to the other. He hunted furiously while I rested at the castle. Each night he offered me the fruits of the hunt while I offered him no more than the kisses I received from his wife, which leads me to my next point.
When the red knight’s horse started to run sand flew behind him and Kaboom, his stick went right in the middle of the bullseye! The red knight’s crowd screamed, but I screamed the loudest.

But that was not all. Next the final show
By the end of eleventh century, Western Europe had experienced a powerful cultural revival. The flourish of New towns provided a place for exchange of commerce and flow of knowledge and ideas. Universities, which replaced monasteries as centers of learning, poured urbanized knowledge into society.
