[He's shocked, horrified, offended, even, for just a second before he remembers that the girl next to him has ice magic.

That definitely would have complicated the story of the man of La Mancha.]


It's my favorite of the stories my grandfather used to tell me. An old nobleman reads so many stories of knights and chivalry that he goes mad as a goat and thinks he can become a knight errant. He saddles up his old workhorse, names himself Don Quixote, and recruits a farmhand named Sancho Panza to be his squire. Except, the real world is not as chivalric as his stories.

[Hilarity ensues.]

I used to ask for it so often, sometimes my grandfather would call me Quijito after the real name of Don Quixote.
