Game of Thrones; and the depiction of feudal culture

But in seriousness, in most civilizations it is the jester and only the jester that has any true freedom from the predetermination of their archtypes. But that would be the fools journey and what not.

It is very cool to read what you said here for me...because lately in life as a musician (which isn't my 'job'...yet!) I have begun to VERY STRONGLY identify with the concept of a jester, and have begun to feel as such when I perform...my act is no different than it used to be, I do no silly antics, but I certainly have begun to feel like a court jester or a benevolent trickster in essence, in spirit. Hah!
