Who Shot the Sheriff?
Another eventful few days!! One minute I'm helping people, next I'm accused of murder. First I'm in the Sheriff's bedroom offering to help, not a very nice experience, and then I find myself in Marian's bed, which was much more enjoyable! Still can't believe she's the Nightwatchman. I guess she does care about people and would do anything to help. But, I never really imagined her as someone who would go against the system, or the Sheriff. Then again, I didn't really think of her as a woman who would sit at home and let others have all the adventure and fun. Guess I don't really know her. How I would like that to change!
Not that that's likely while the Sheriff or Gisbourne are still around. Gisbourne, even his name sounds slimy! It's so obvious that he likes Marian, and so blatant that she doesn't like him! Although, I'm not too sure that she likes me either, which is a bit of a shame.
Can't believe what this new Sheriff is like. Poor Joe. He's worked so hard all his life, as has his wife. Or had. And then they just get chucked out of their house, so she's unable to die in her own bed. This is why we do what we do, to ensure this kind of action doesn't happen again. I really hate the Sheriff. Can't remember now why I said I would save his life. First and last time I hope. Although, he's right, as much as I didn't want to admit it. I can't just kill people anymore, even if they do deserve it. Guess the Holy Land did teach me something.
Saw Marian talking to Much earlier too. Not entirely sure why, but I felt kinda worried. Not about them, you know, getting close or whatever, but its more Much telling Marian how much I need her. I'm sure he wouldn't though, but you just can't be sure. At least I don't think he's said anything about the dreams! Hopefully he's forgotten about them. They've stopped now, or at least reduced in quantity! Except now they've been replaced by dreams of the Holy Land, mainly the Saracen attack on Acre. I think Much has them too. Sometimes, when I'm on late watch, I see him trying to stay awake too. And when he does fall asleep, he mutters and twitches. I feel guilty about taking him with me, not that he would have stayed. Don't know where I would be if it wasn't for him! God knows I love him! As does Much!
Well guess I should try and get some sleep. Who knows what tomorrow will bring!
