I've seen it, believe me, I've seen it!



I have a question, and I hope it's somewhat noteworthy. Quite a few of the history accounts, such as Nennius and Giraldus(?) use phrases like "I've seen it myself" or "I've been there" to validate their stories. Is this a trend we're going to see with a lot of the actual literature too? I think these supposed eyewitness accounts would help the stories blur the lines between fantasy and reality.
