mckenzeeKing Henry walked barefoot through the filthy streets to Canterbury Cathedral to do penance for his role in Thomas’ death and the same day his forces in the Border Lands captured William the Lion, King of the Scots.
They captured two of my castles also, so I decided it was time to hit the road. First to Rome to negotiate with the Pope. He recommended 14 years on crusade as the appropriate penance for an accomplice to martyr.
So I toured the Holy Land, joined the Knights Templer, and two Popes later I faked my own death and returned to England. The heat was off, so I settled back in Knaresborough and married the widow Stuteville. I had been attracted to Helwis ever since she married my brother’s brother-in-law.
