Marian hadn't been far, fretting and not even able to pace, from the room where The Sherrif and his physican were, with the unconscious body of Henry of Lewes.

There could not be complete freedom though, not while she was still a guest of the Sheriff.
"But you stay in the castle." On this point, he was firm.
Now though, he had to hurry to meet his informant at the Trip Inn.
