Rumors

de Clare sure had a spring in his step yesterday.
I wonder what he's got to be happy about?
I don't know, but he made a beeline to de Ferrers' tent.

I hear Roger de Bigod wants to make representations to the king about getting his Earldom back.
Yeah, he was speaking with the Marshal yesterday. And I saw him trying to butter up Queen Eleanor the day before that.
Well, he's ticking all the right boxes.
Let's just hope ol' Gundreda don't find out!

That Giles de Braose is a very thoughtful young man. He was up all night looking after that English knight, Sir John Castle.
Really? But it wasn't his brother that smote him, was it?
No, it was that Simon de Montfort character...though it's as likely the lance slipped and touched a vital by mistake as any malice.
Still, good on de Braose for doing the Lord's work of pastoral care, there.
Yeah, good on him.
