A hooded man approached the castle.

When asked about his business, he replied that he was looking for employment as a henchman.

**Gandalfus** · February 14, 2013, 10:51 AM

He is permitted to enter the main hall of the castle, where the Baron was holding court.

**M. Laveur** · February 14, 2013, 11:30 AM

He addressed the Lord,

"A good day for you, Monseigneur," he spoke with a thick French accent.

"My name sis Gerner Fourneaux... a former crusader. Currently looking for a new master to serve."

**Gandalfus** · February 14, 2013, 11:45 AM

The baron smiled, and replied in French, with the slight oddity of Norman dialect creeping in. He stood to address the man.

Ah, it is good to see a fellow man of the south in my court, rather than one of those barbarous Saxons. Are you a knight, good sir?

**M. Laveur** · February 14, 2013, 12:04 PM

"Non," he replied in short.

"My sword is far better than any knight's, though," he grinned.

**Gandalfus** · February 14, 2013, 12:11 PM

He nodded slowly.

Then you shall be my squire, if you so wish. I can offer you a knighthood if all you claim is true.

**M. Laveur** · February 14, 2013, 03:24 PM

He nodded.

"Very well, Sire. Thank you," he said, in a tone that did not show any actual gratitude, looking at the floor with his dark, cold eyes.

"In what may I serve you?"

**Gandalfus** · February 14, 2013, 03:33 PM

he shrugs.

There is little to do at this time.

A letter arrives from the Archbishop of Canterbury addressed to the Lord Nottingham

I am please with your intent to repent your sins, and I do wish to absolve you but I do have doubts of the purity of your claims. I ask that you come visit me within Canterbury, and perhaps this ordeal may be placed behind us.

A letter arrives from the Archbishop of Canterbury addressed to the Lord Nottingham

The church is a house of God, it is a place of santcuary and peace whilst within the walls of the cathedral you shall not be touched to this i give you my word. i would also state that should one wish to repent his sins it is best to be heard from a house of God.
