As for the question, I think anything is possible in a story. I mean, look at the LotR. They are always talking in the middle of battles! Also, in the Song of Roland, everything is exaggerated and repeated over and over. Maybe they just had to fill up space. :)Megan Beckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12049969698395981703noreply@blogger.com
