It´s saturday and market day in the happy little town of Styrow on the Fome |
The villagers are going about thier business.... |
...wares are being sold...friends meeting and chatting... |
..children play happily......but all is not well. |
Mrs Migs starts to remonstrate with the mayor about the new tax rises demanded from thier lord and master Sir Hugh Jarse. |
The local preist, Geoffrey Black sparrow joins with the argument accusing the Mayor of being a lacky to Sir Hugh Jarse |
All this is watched by the local watchmen standing on the steps of the Goalhouse , the crowd jeers at them but they do nothing. |
later several of the watch get drunk, taking thier revenge for the insults they had to suffer, beating up several local trades people in a back alley. |
Within a short time, an angry crowd has gathered in front of the goalhouse...demanding justice...the situation gets out of hand and both sides clash violently |
A deathly shout is heard above the melee and both sides part to reveal the dead body of Alan Add-ale |
The shock makes both sides withdraw...but as they do ..a cloaked figure is glimpsed leaving the village. |
Who is this cloaked figure and what is his mission?? What will happen next over the death of Alan Add-ale ? |
