    My best friend gave me the title “Lionheart”. I knew it was a derivative of Warrior or Champion. Thank you for this very interesting historical review on a man who reminds me a lot of my one of my favorite bible characters, King David. Richard was a man who fought side by side with his men, a lover of music, a Christian King who fought for Jerusalem. He was the King David of his generation.

      Well Frederick II. won Jerusalem just by sheer diplomacy and without any battle.
      He was a greatly educated man and fluent in Arabian, educated in arabic science and arts.
      Barbarossa helped Guy de Lusignan to lose Jerusalem to Saladin. Of all kings and emperors Frederick II. was indeed the smartest one.

Hes in my throat and calls me brother and he has admitted to shooting me with a poisoned arrow around 1198. In 1485 i was called henry tudor. We are still fighting in melbourne. If you dropin at my home you can talk to the god via digital transceiver. Hes responsible for stealing the covid germ from wuhan. He is still ruthless. Currently he is commanding australian police forces. Make some enquiries. Talk to soothsayers and find out where richard and john are presently located.
