Parley Sticker

From Wikipedia.org Parley is a discussion or conference, especially one between enemies over terms of truce or other matters. The root of the word parley is parlée, which is from the French verb parler, "to speak". Beginning in the High Middle Ages with the expansion of monarchs, a parley, or "talk", was a meeting held between kings and their chief retainers. Parleys were part of the many changes in Europe, especially regarding governments. These meetings can be attributed to the formation of parliaments, which are derived from a similar root, parliamentum, simply meaning "talking". In fiction The concept of parley and the term "parler" was used in the 2003 movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. In the movie, parley became a running joke for the characters to escape harm. in Kingdom Hearts II, Luxord visits Port Royal, a world based on Curse of the Black Pearl and uses parley. For whatever reason, materials pertaining to Curse of the Black Pearl's second sequel, At World's End use the spelling "parlay", which is actually a different word (compare definitions of 'parley' and 'parlay').
