Sénéchal / Senechal
Ce mot tire ses origines des Francs, enfin de leur langue le francique, siniskalk qui à l’époque désignait le serviteur le plus vieux. Au début du Moyen Age, ce titre est attribué à un des Grands Officiers, celui qui dirige les armées. Cela dure jusqu’en 1191. Après, les personnes désignées comme sénéchaux étaient les Officiers Royaux ayant le pouvoir dans une sénéchaussée qui se trouve être un lieu autre que le domaine principal du seigneur ayant droit sur le sénéchal désigné. Aujourd’hui ce métier n’est plus ou très rare et seulement quelques lieux portent ce nom, comme des cinémas, mais cela suffit à faire penser aux jeunes que ce terme désigne uniquement un cinéma ou un resto et non un métier vieux de 1500 ans.
This word derives its origins from the Franks, and finally from their language the Frankish, siniskalk which at the time designated the oldest servant. At the beginning of the Middle Ages, this title is attributed to one of the Grand Officers, the one who directs the armies. This lasts until 1191. Afterwards the persons designated as seneschals were the Royal Officers having the power in a seneschal, which happens to be a place other than the principal domain of the lord having right over the designated seneschal. Nowadays this craft is no longer of very rare and only a few places bear this name, like cinemas, but it is enough to make young people think that term designates only a cinema or a restaurant and not a trade of 1500 years.
P.F.
"The forge of my heart grows cold, and the world shivers for it.
Know this, Arisen: The world is merciless... Cold and empty, for all its beauty. It is an ever-turning wheel, perfect beyond compare. I stand at its center, as you may come to stand in turn.
It is my will that keeps it spinning. My will that urges time onward through eternity. Our kind must fight, and through fighting prove the temper of our will. It is a fight that knows no end. It repeats upon itself, that all the world may repeat with it. And so the cycle continues, forever and ever and ever..." -The Senechal
