Nottingham castle2/28/2023 ![]() The next day, the donation takes place and the King's deliverance is assured thanks to Robin Hood and his men, who also contribute with their own through Maid Marian, who deliberately disobeyed the Queen the other day for a good cause. But the Queen refuses since she is her responsibility and Prince John continues to mock and rebuff Robin Hood. Having known Robin Hood all her life, Maid Marian refuses to believe his story (including the story of how his father was killed) and tries to persuade the Queen to allow her to find Robin and prove her his loyalty to their King. Prince John gives them an excuse by telling them that he's been busy forming an army of foresters against Robin Hood and his outlaws. Still, the Archbishop and his mother suspect he's up to something. Using his wit, he decides to hold a donation tomorrow at Nottingham Square. At the castle, Prince John lies to his mother claiming he never knew or heard of his own brother's capture and ransom from his mother's messengers, whom he also claims they never reached him as well. Two years later, after King Richard's Crusade has ended in failure and King Richard finds himself imprisoned in Austria to be held for a ransom of 100,000 marks, it is at the castle where the Queen Mother, the Archbishop, and Maid Marian go to consult Prince John when they find out that he hasn't raised and refused to contribute to the fourth of the ransom. On that day, after the Prince returns to the castle to find the people revolting against them, the Prince can be seen scolding his Sheriff while his Sheriff promises to put an end to Robin Hood and his men the next day. After King Richard's departure, it is there where Prince John appoints a man to be his new Sheriff of Nottingham.Ī few days later, it is there where the Sheriff punishes two men: Scathelock and Will Stutely for breaking Prince John's laws until they are saved by outlaws known as Merrie Men who follow their leader, Robin Hood. ![]() Queen Eleanor can be seen wishing her eldest son good luck on his Crusade and the Archbishop of Canterbury is also seen giving a blessing to the King, the Earl, and everyone else. It is in this place where King Richard prepares to leave with the Earl of Huntingdon for the Crusade while his greedy younger brother, Prince John assumes the throne and the Earl's daughter, Maid Marian is left in the King and Prince's mother, Queen Eleanor's care.
