William and the friend Jason bring their bicycles on the attic, shrink themselves, and embark on a journey. They meet Sir Simon because he is getting ready to leave for the tournament, and so they stop at his castle. They spend more time a boy plus a girl with the castle and together. The girl tells them of an omen her grandmother, Calendar, kept repeating before she died. Sir Simon sent Calendar away for the convent as he thought she was crazy and he does not believe the omen. Few accept it but Calendar's granddaughter does. Jason and William believe it too. Long before there were machines to work out on and competitive sports to remain moving and before wars were being fought, man didn't think about conditioning as a means of keeping healthy. He simply knew if he didn't hunt, he wouldn't eat and when he didn't run, something would hunt him. They were tough times that focused simply on survival.
