The Black Death is devastating Europe. And on a much humbler level, ten-year-old Robin, son of Sir John de Bureford, has been left crippled after an illness cost him the use of his legs. With his father on campaign and his mother gone to attend the Queen, Robin is taken in by a monk named Brother Luke, who helps him rebuild his strength while teaching him patience and perseverance. When Robin despairs over being of any use to the kingdom while so weak in body, Brother Luke reminds him that every wall must have a door in it.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Some months later, Robin finally reaches his intended destination, the Castle Lindsay near the border of Wales.

As You Know: Extensively in the early going, where every character turns into Mr. Exposition. This, for example, is Robin's mother's farewell to her son.
