Part 3
"The weather is not letting up," said Gisborne half to himself as he looked out the Sheriff's window at the castle.
"It's called winter Gisborne," Vasey replied. "And it means that the outlaws are not interfering with any of my schemes, it is far too cold for them to venture out of their little hidey hole in the forest."
"But is Marian with them?"
"Why do you care where the girl is?"
"Hood said he had not seen her that she was not with him, last time we spoke at Eli's house."
"Humph well perhaps Anya dissolved their relationship or not, who knows?"
"She could be back with Hood in the forest," Guy muttered crossly, snarling almost as he did so.
"And," Vasey added. "She could just as likely have sought sanctuary in an Abbey outside of Nottinghamshire; I for one can't see Marian braving the woods at this time of year even for Hood."
"Possibly and that would make sense as to why they has been no news or sightings of the blasted woman."
"Let's not waste our time thinking thoughts of women, especially traitorous women like Marian. Hood is welcome to her as far as I can see."
Guy made a guttural reply obviously not sharing Vasey's opinion of Marian and began to talk of matters in hand. "So?"
"So indeed, we have to prepare for a visitor Brother John is arriving in the next few days and we need to make his stay as comfortable as possible."
"He is a monk they do not live in comfort," Gisborne put in.
"Ah but for Brother John we must make an exception if he is to help in our quest to destroy the Earl of Markwick and all that he stands for and believes in."
