2. Weapons
The battles between Kingdoms were fearsome! They used dangerous weapons like bows and swords. A sword is like a sharp medal sticklike weapon that you hold in your hand and swing or thrust it to attack. Bows are curved wooden sticks with a string attached to each end. You lay the back of a short and thin wooden stick with a pointed tip (witch is called an arrow) on the string, then pull the arrow and the string back, then let go and the arrow goes flying at whatever you were pointing it at.
