The prize after the grail.
Really well done! Your tale is briskly paced, original, and filled with little details that really flesh out the setting and characters. I particularly enjoyed the bit about the peasant's arrowhead being used as a lance tip. Though the story lacks traditional "action" (aside from a club getting split in twain), my attention was never drawn elsewhere and I was entertained throughout the read.
As for your prose, it's very functional and descriptive when necessary, but not overly so. For example, you never get carried away with bogging down the story by describing the number of floor boards at the inn. I'll admit there were moments when I felt a sentence or two could have been trimmed or tweaked for a more fluid, poetic presentation, but that's negligible compared to the overall enjoyability of your story (and a matter of my personal taste). This is truly something to be proud of, and an excellent example to prove that waiting 'till the last minute isn't always a bad thing
! Bravo, good Sir! Bravo!
