Background

ideas in note form to be written properly later.

Fulco Bowyer, the son of a middle ranking Norman mother and a Saxon bowyer from Conisborough Castle. There original union caused some scandal, but his mother's position meant that Fulco grew up amongst the well bred. When the Lord's eldest son, Robert, left for the Holy Land, Fulco went with him leaving his childhood friends, the Lord's other sons, behind. Robert died in the Battle of Hattin and Fulco returned to Yorkshire with the Lord's hounds and falcon.

Before he returns to his duties as Master of the Lord's Hunt, serving the new Lord, Fulco is heading on a pilgrimage to give thanks for his safe return and to rescue Robert's soul from purgatory.

Robert died in battle and so was unable to receive last rites. Since this was not during a Vatican blessed crusade, he was not pre-absolved of sins and so died a sinner.
