In the village of Waterford, Gisburne becomes enraged by a young boy's ritualistic chants to Herne the Hunter and he vows to capture him.

David, Earl of Huntingdon, sighed quietly as he watched his teenage son slip out of the woods that surrounded Huntingdon Castle. That particular spot, where Robert had emerged, was special. That had been where Mathilda had taken her son for long forest walks, where she'd told him stories, and played games. Sadly, when Robert was eight years old, the stories had ended. David realised, as each day passed, why his offspring behaved in the way he did. After all, Robert of Huntingdon was Mathilda's son. He was her legacy. The moment couldn't be put off any longer. It was time to tell his son the story of how the Earl had met Robert's mother...

Licencing issues

Spiteful Puppet on the licencing issues:
At the risk of sounding like a stuck record, and as has been explained many times before, we'd LOVE to be able to sell internationally. It was always what we intended and we fought hard to negotiate for the licence to do so. What you have to understand is that any licence is an upfront fee of thousands of pounds, with a percentage of the gross sales as well. That's before we have even made or paid for any scripts, recordings, cast, crew, etc.

Unfortunately, based on sales for KOTA (which, as a charity release, was allowed to be sold worldwide), the return from the US and Europe would be way below what the licence holder was asking for the International Licence.

In all honesty, we hardly break even on the Domestic (UK) Licence, so to add another bill of thousands of pounds that we couldn't hope to recoup on top of what it cost to acquire the UK licence, would be professional suicide. We'd be bankrupt in a few months!

We tried our hardest to explain this to the overseas company who hold the other licence, trying to point out that *some* money for them was better than *no* money, but they wouldn't budge.

However, fans have always found a way to purchase our product - mainly through asking a UK fan to buy it for them. All you need to purchase our Downloads and CDs is a UK address.

Sorry again that we can't make it easier for you. We do appreciate your frustration as we're equally as frustrated with the situation!
