The Fool on the hill...



Duke Peter spends some time in the company of his one true friend - the Ducal Fool . The Duke has maintained this tradition which originated in medieval times in Saschen-Vindow.

The Duke's fool maintains traditional costume and is a constant companion of Duke Peter's. The discuss the meaning of everything ,military strategy and theology over silver figures moving upon the floor of the Duke's Study. The Duke and Fool maintain an ambivalent relationship at times where the fool says those personal things to the Duke he will not tolerate from any other. The jokes and japes regarding the duchess are wearing rather thin however...
