The other's story
Count Friedrich
As the cart drew up in front of the castle his unmarried younger sister ran towards it.
"Did you win anything?"
Friedrich couldn't help smiling at his sister's eager way of behaving, he was sure she and Lady Marian would have gotten a long well.
"Yes! I won something!"
"Where? Where is it?"
Anybody who didn't know her could make the mistake to think that the young girl was incredibly vain and shallow; those who knew her knew that wasn't the truth.
"What I won as neither gold nor silver! It is something much more valuable! Friendship!"
"Really? Tell me!"
"When I've changed! At dinner, I promise you!"
So while they were eating he told about how he'd learned that the sheriff of Nottingham would cheat in the game, how at first he'd decided to return without gambling, how Lady Marian had talked him into helping her and her outlaw friends emptying the sheriff strong room and how in the end he'd given the money the Robin Hood, the leader of the gang, so that he could give it to the poor.
"That's amazing! Do you know what? Next time you really have to take me along! I know you keep saying that it isn't very ladylike to travel around like that but the way you described this Marian, well… she didn't seem to really care what's ladylike."
"I know! Maybe I'll take you along next time! I do hope I can go back to Nottingham one day! To meet my friends there again! And maybe you'd like to meet them too!"
