Prudence - A Blue Tassel

The rules of the game and the reasons behind why we do this.  Actually learning something from period texts.

Prudence was probably the easiest of the challenges of the path for me. I love to read and I currently help to write laws of the Kingdom.  The Known World Handbook is always near to my right hand so that I can refer newcomers too it.  There are some fascinating articles within its covers.

Since the start of the Camino journey I have aided in updating the Privacy Policy and the Bullying and Harassment Policy of the Kingdom.  So I didn't think that was a fair claim to Prudence as it was me undertaking my job as a member of the Board.

I decided that I should familiarise myself with procedures and handbooks that do not come across the Board "desk" every day.  I took a look at the Marshall's handbook.  This proved to be a good choice as not only did I learn a few things about fighting arts but I also discovered references through out that referred to SCAA rather than SCA Ltd.  So this was beneficial to the Board anyway.

Locally I have commenced writing an events guide.  Not a handbook as such but a book on little things that we forget.  There are plenty of stewards handbooks about and there is one in the works in Stegby with input from several people but this one is about things like, tent pegs and weather, underground wiring and sprinklers.  All the little things.
 
Period Reading has included two works which I found fascinating.

The Prince by Machiavelli & a play called The Calandria by Bernado de Bibbenia
