This Knight Served 5 Kings for 70 Years and Never Lost a FightAdded:
Did you know one knight served five kings across 70 years and never lost a single fight? William Marshall was already a legend when most warriors retired. At 70, he was still unbeaten in combat. But it was his deathbed in 1219 that revealed his true power. As England's greatest nobles gathered around him, they watched something extraordinary. The dying knight began giving away his most prized possessions.
Not his lands or gold, but something far more valuable. His word. Every promise he made, every debt he forgave, every enemy he pardoned. This was why they called him the greatest knight who ever lived. Honor was his deadliest weapon.
