The medievalist and singer Laura de Castellet She has been the Sibyl of Seu d'Urgell for years. When she performs, she always carries the traditional sword used to represent the Song of the Sibyl. Hers is metal and quite heavy, but it's designed as a prop and doesn't cut or pierce. Although it looks quite realistic, she says that the sword doesn't usually attract attention – "people look at their phones" – and she even notices more stares when she's carrying a large instrument. That's why she never imagined that carrying the sword would lead to her being identified by a police officer, much less that she wouldn't be able to board a train while carrying it.
