Book content
...One day Brother Jodar was on his way from the village fair, where he had spent a week carousing. His head was buzzing from all the mead he drank, his belly was filled to the brim, and he had a long road ahead of him.
The snaking path led him to a dark forest. As unperturbed as ever, Brother Jodar marched ahead, loudly whistling a tune. All of a sudden, a burly fellow stepped out from the treeline, brandishing a nasty-looking club.
Brother Jodar grabbed his staff tightly, took a step back, and started talking:
"Well hello! Didn't expect to run into another clueless vagabond like me at this hour!"
The fellow opened his mouth in surprise, but before he could reply, Brother Jodar proceeded with his speech:
"The name's Brother Jodar, and I am a monk. I bring the word and blessing of the Host to the wronged and abused. If you kneel right now, I'll bless you as well."
The fellow hesitated, but Brother Jodar looked at him with such fatherly kindness, that he gave in. The moment he got on his knees, the monk raised his staff... and smacked the villain on the back of his head! The thug tried to avoid it, but to no avail - Brother Jodar had the combat prowess of seven men. Nursing his wound, the thug reached for the club but instead got smacked again - there was nothing for him to do but to make a run for it, cowering from hits.
"Take this, and that!.. Where are you going? I only gave you a blessing for good health... How about one more for good fortune?.. Or maybe a blessing for a happy marriage?"
