Listen to Wise Trevrezent
You have all now read Wolfram's story of Parvizal, and have read the conversation that took place between young Parvizal and the wise hermit Trevrezent. Trevrezent was a devoted man of God and a clever teacher. His stories taught Parvizal much, not only about Parvizal's personal struggles with his mother and his pursuit of the Grail, but also about meaningful lessons that all should learn. You are all students, and have teachers: learn from them. Listen to them, as Parvizal listened to Trevrezent. And do not forget Trevrezent's lessons, however old they may be. The Earth was the first maiden, and was forever wronged by the sin of murder committed on her virgin soil. Women, like the earth, are wronged by violence. In your pursuit of the Grail, or whatever quest your knightly hearts yearn for, use your swords mindfully. Stronger weapons are prayers. Peace.
