The Dissenting Knights and the Norman Knights

The king was facing mutiny and unlike the whole incident in St. Valerie, this time he wasn't going to be able to boost morale by digging up a holy corpse. We're told that the Norman knights were loyal and therefore totally down for Williams War. The text of this record suggests that the dissenting knights lacked character while the Norman knights had proper moral fiber. William got in front of his men and basically said, fine, fine. I'll take Chester all by myself if I have to. I have no need for cowards or weaklings. And then he turned back on them and started marching towards Chester.
