Hello Together,
To see the Knight as a King, I go back into history.
After inventing all sorts of Guns: the War changed ... "Napoleon just was navigating" ;-)
But let's go back 1200 years.
The King was the Number one on the horse.
The King was the first, who joint the battlefield.
The King was the Number-one-Knight.
What was King Arthur: He was Number-one-Knight of the Knights of the round Table.
And even today:
If they is an red-level-emergency, the government / parlament ist switched off, an the President or Chancelor or Prime Minister is again the highest major with direct advice to military.
(Off course he stays today in a save place; but: in this situation, he is "king" and "first-knight")
=> This is, what the Book T -Knight is: It's number one of the round table.
And the Sword, that he took out of the Stone, was not the Tarot-Sword, it was the ruling Symbol.
Before the inventiong of zepters and apples and Crowns, the ruling Dog in Town had to fight to be the King, and the sword was his Power-Symbol. ;-))))

The other historical Knight off course ist the Soldier-Knight, which has to earn his status and knowledge. which is the teenagered-Prince.
The Waite-Knight was such a Knight, who was living at foreigner castles, fighting for different rulers, waiting for his time to come, he was 'army',
Off course, he was "better-army", he was not a walking soldier in the crowed, but he was under the advice of the number-one-army-Knight-King.

In the End, the Vocobulary-Problem maybe also lies in missing hierachchical words for Knights.
There is no: Sir, Earl, Duke, Lord, and so on.
