The Prophecy of Death: (Knights Templar 25)
“He had not actually been bound during the journey, but at all times the Bishop had two powerful men at his side, and it was clear enough that a severe bump on the head was the minimum he could expect, were he to try to escape.

The ba...iliff had snatched him up with skill, and then having him confess while in front of the Bishop had been something he could almost admire, were it not for the fact that he could have happily cut out the bailiff’s liver and eaten it raw for making him seem a fool.

It had been washed extensively by the Bishop’s men, but it still stung, and although it hadn’t gone sour and sweet-smelling, it was painful while riding.MoreLess
