      Hell yeah, these kinds of festivals are the ultimate expression of people genuinely having authentic fun while being themselves. And I love how inclusive it is, as long as you're having fun, you're welcome there and there will be people to connect with. it's absolutely awesome.

To see it actually existing feels... unreal. And the fact that you can build a summerhouse there? One day, little, your dreams will come true.
    And the leaders speech, although very simple, was ridiculously motivating. I was sitting, feeling the adrenaline rush through me, with a strange thirst for war and action.

    Common misconception I've noticed is the use of the bows. I know it's not important but medieval archers didn't use quivers. They usually held their arrows in either their bow hand or their shooting hand and shot from the right side of the bow so they could ready their arrows quicker. It's not important but just interesting ^^

    • @Poodleinacan
      @Poodleinacan 4 роки тому +4

      They did both.
      They could hold a bunch of arrows in a quiver then they could take a handful and fire arrows while they are holding on the arrows they just picked up.
      That sounds more logical then plainly holding on arrows until they can be fired.

And then I got thinking, I bet MoMo's picked up at least a few French Larp-related words at Bicolline.

    Mo Mo O'Brien, I just want to say thank you. Thank you for your amazing videos. You have given me the courage and idea to begin going to Renascence festivals and begin larping. Thank you. Tomorrow is my first big day of larp. I am going as a Celtic Archer with a fox headdress.
