Kudrun has made pilgrimage to so many sites... she is glad to be at home in the Shire of Rokeclif, AKA the village of Giggleswick in North Yorkshire. The year is 1291. I've heard rumors that someone in Ravenna is carving blocks of wood and spreading ink on them, and is using them to create a repeating pattern on cloth. Such a silly idea. Too bad it'd never work well on parchment.
