Answer 2

The correct answer is D) training as a page.

The first step in becoming a knight was training as a page.

If warriors had the credentials for the many battles they fought and the bravery they showed, they could be ordered knights by the King. Otherwise, they had to start their training since they were a child, as pages. When a child was 7, he was sent to the house of a knight to serve as a peg. When the boy was 15 years old, he became a squire and helped to clean the knight armor, horse, and other duties. This was the time to start training with real weapons and show the needed bravery to be a knight.
