Their armor level seems hundreds of years behind their weapons tech too. Now that cannons are invented, it seems weapons jumped another 300 years ahead, and they still don't use plate mail armor.A table, one chest, and a few chairs were the only furnishings except for two racks on the wall, and they
caught Rand's eye as much as the tapestry. One held a two-handed sword, taller than a man, a more ordinary
broadsword, and below them a studded mace and a long, kite-shaped shield bearing three foxes. From the other
hung a suit of armor, complete and arranged as one would wear it. Crested helmet with its barred face-guard
over a double-mail camail. Mail hauberk, split for riding, and leather undercoat, polished from wear.
Breastplate, steel gauntlets, knee and elbow cops, and half-plate for shoulders and arms and legs. Even here in
the heart of the Keep, weapons and armor seemed ready to be donned at any moment. Like the furniture, they
were simply and severely decorated with gold.
