Anyways in this scene she has been sold to the English and is awaiting trial. The man in the black robe is her conscience questioning the "signs" that she assumes were from God commanding her (more specifically the sword in the field).

Here's another good scene (first 5 min.)

I'm confused... what does this have to do with Armenia?
I award Brandrinn several thousand ZBBs for this.

"taming" is not the same as "domestication"
In archaeological circles, at least, it is the same, but it's usually labelled as "Behavioural Domestication" instead to contrast with "Morphological Domestication", but it's just a synonym really.
At some time in the past, then, we tamed wild case affixes? :P
