  10. Quote/Credits • Carl: I’m not going to jump off a cliff just cause you say so. • Halt: Oh I would never ask for someone to do that. Your going to jump off the cliff because if you don’t I will shoot you with an arrow. So what I suggest is that you jump an might live rather than get shot in the back and then fall off the cliff anyways. But you decide. • http://library.thinkquest.org/10949/fief/medknight.html • http://www.google.com/search?q=knights&hl=en&safe=active&tbo=d&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=voyzUJfvCYOmqgHVyYHADw&ved=0CAQQ_AUoAA&biw=1280&bih=797 • http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=active&tbo=d&biw=1280&bih=797&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=long+bows&oq=long+bows&gs_l=img.3...16541.18917.0.19042.9.6.0.0.0.0.219.406.0j1j1.2.0.cpsugrpq2..0.0...1.1.1amWQiqFewQ
