Renown
The reputation of a combatant based upon the virtues that others perceive in him from his word, thoughts and deeds. See also the essay concerning Errants the Company of Saint George . I have called renown the ‘coin of the tourneyer’, the only thing a combatant takes to the field, and the only thing he takes home from it.
