Robin said, "I am honored to be in your presence brave Knights of the Round Table."
"The tales of the spammer war are legend.

I am from Loxley in the Provence of Naughtingham, and my King is Richard the Lion hearted.
I owe no allegiance to this King, as he has all but raped England to finance his crusades. He has taken so much, that his subjects are starving. This is why I am now before you.
I don't know how much of this information will be new to your ears, but it is true that the Knights Templar are the ones that attacked your King's caravan, wounded your King and captured your Queen Guinevere.
Your Queen, has been taken to the Tower of London, to be held for ransom."

The room erupted into shouting and bedlam.

Sir JonPop and Sir Uberschwanz yelled for quiet, that Robin of Sherwood, might finish.

Sir JonPop said, "And what are the demands for ransom, Robin?"

Robin Hood spoke, "My best sources say that it is one million Pounds, Sterling and one million Gold coins. Furthermore, an envoy has been dispatched to the Kingdom of BetterMan to make these demands for the ransom of your Queen."
Sir JonPop said, I will reward this information with 500 gold coins, now, but if you and your men will join the BetterMan Knights in our quest to rescue our Queen, the reward will be far grater."

Robin asked, "How great will this reward be, for such a dangerous undertaking for myself and my band of men?"
Sir JonPop said, "This is with the permission of King Arthur, of course, but I will stand behind any offer I now make to you. Your reward shall be one eighth of the ransom asked."

Robin Hood, stood, looked at the Knights, and said, "I shall return to Sherwood and discuss this with my men. I will return in a fortnight with my answer." With this, he picked up his bow, replaced his arrows on his back and left the room.
As he left, a servant handed him a leather pouch containing 500 gold coins.
