SC - Chivalry

[Balldrich BallBarian BoulderBain]

   I know not the source but am reasonably certain that when nobles moved
about from castle to castle, the cooks were the first of the entourage to
arrive. (Had to have food ready for road weary travellers) Being the first to
arrive, these stalwarts often encountered unfriendly, unwanted "guests" at the
destination. being capable with sword and buckler was a prerequsite for this
operation. One never knows where the Dukes rivals will lie in wait.
   To this end when I put on my apron instead of my armour I feel more in
persona. Does anyone know of a noble's cook being knighted for chivalrously
defending his master? It seems highly likely to have happened.
