When he turned 14 he would be a page to a knight and look after his armour and so forth then he would have to fight in battle and would be noticed by others if he had the correct skills

Becoming a knight involved several stages, beginning as a page, then training as a squire before participating in a ceremonial dubbing. The dubbing ceremony was significant, often taking place in a church and involved purification rituals and symbolic gestures like being touched with a sword. Ultimately, this process emphasized the values of chivalry and the responsibilities that knights held in medieval society.
