The Knight's Journal

It has been two weeks since our group left for Canterbury. We have all gotten to know each other now, but I'm not sure I like what I see in some of these people. There are some good people such as the Parson. Others are not so good. The Summoner I find to be one of the worst in our group. Just the other day I caught him in a lie about stealing money from my squire and yet he still denied it. I have honored chivalry my whole life, but this man is testing my patients. I know I must refrain from punishing him for that is God's decision. I will continue to pray for patience and I will endure through this journey.
Another problem I have noticed with some of my traveling companions is that they have no care for other people's needs. Just the other day we met a poor man on the road. He had no food, water, or money. There were some people in our group that wanted to leave him, but I stuck to my morals and gave the man enough to get him to the next village. This pilgrimage is going to be a test for all of us. We will have more disagreements, and I will always defend my honor and stick to my ways of chivalry.
