Epilogue:
A long time has passed, and it was late springtime, for the blossoms were giving way to newborn apples. The winter was somewhat hard yet it was a wonderful winter as Robin Hood and Maid Marian got married, became Earl and Lady of Nottingham, protectors of Sherwood Forest, thanks to King Richard's new laws and blessings.
Nottingham has became one of the most respectful and prosperous towns of England, with Little John becoming the new Sheriff. Will Scarlet has became the official court musician, while David of Doncaster has became a knight with Skippy as his ward. Much became part of the new guards. Friar Tuck's church became fixed and is well as new.
"Indeed, thanks to King Richard's return, things had been overturned from John's reign of chaos, and now the villains are part of the new jail miners program.". chuckled Alan-A-Dale. He is in his usual ensemble through his mandolin has improved somewhat, and he had became the town troubadour. Alan smiled and pointed a wing toward the town mine, showing that ex-prince John, the old Sheriff, Hiss, and Guy is in prison garb, chained yet they are sentenced to work forever in the mine, breaking stones into considerable bricks and etc. They are now miserable and knew they lost their lives to prison forever.
Horns bellowed in the distance. Alan grinned, "That was the manor of Robin and Marian. Something must be happening.". He ran quite excitedly, as horns continued bellowing as the villagers congregated in the new courtyard of the manor. The manor is similar to Nottingham Castle, through the bricks are ash brown, and the manor flags revealed to be in the background of green with three black arrows with silver tips.
On the balcony stood Robin and Marian, their wardrobe now changed. Robin's now wearing a silk blue tunic with olive brown pants, tan sandals, through his green hat still remained with a new white feather. Marian's wearing a purple dress with dark blue bloomers, and pink flats. The couple was smiling, looking down at their people, and they flickered their ears as they turned to see King Richard carrying a small bundle. The bundle turned around to reveal a newborn 7-day old fox kit, the firstborn child of Robin and Marian. The kit blinked its amber brown eyes, his fur a scarlet red with his muzzle and belly being a cream white with his ears and tail tipped black.
The couple smiled, in love with their son, and King Richard smiled, and raised the kit up in the air, securely safe in his hands. The villagers cheered, making their noises and sounds.
King Richard announced, "He is to be the future king after me, and with the lord and lady's permission, I give the name of our new prince. Clinton Anthony, son of Sherwood Manor, and noble of Nottingham!".
Everybody celebrated by bowing in respect, and little Clinton seemed to smile as Marian received him, and the couple chuckled at their son's curiosity. The couple agreed to have five children once they got married. Clinton is the first child.
England is forever destined to be a great nation and it starts with King Richard and the new generation of Earl Robin and Lady Marian. And the future is awaiting them.
