Join Alan of Dale and Will Scarlett as they tell you the tale of Robin Hood and his merry band of outlaws as they save the forest and the town of Nottingham from the evil Sheriff and his nephew Guy of Gisbourne. The twist in this tale comes when the Lady of the Forest, a powerful Fae named Elen, comes looking for Robin with a familiar face from Robin's past, his long lost Marian.
