Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

In the book Castle Diary, this scenario reveals that anybody could die at any time regardless of his or her position in society at the time in the Middle Ages. Most specifically when it deals with the jousting matches (a kind of sports involving knights contests while on horseback and attempt to knock each other with a lance). Therefore, it again shows that death was a common occurrence in such a situation.
