| 1 | "I See Him" | Jonathan English | Jonathan English & John Glenn | November 2, 2025 | TBD | |
Hugh Locksley, a proud Saxon, tells his young son Robert "Rob" Locksley about the legend of Aedric, who led the first Saxon foresters into the Great Forests to defy the laws that were imposed on them following the Norman Conquest. Hoping to reclaim his estate after it was seized by the Normans, Hugh petitions the Sheriff of Nottingham but is instead forced to serve as Nottingham's royal forester, deepening his resentment. Rob visits the Locksley estate and meets Marian, the kind-hearted daughter of the estate's new owner, Huntingdon. Many years later, Rob has become a skilled archer and joins his father on a hunt. He discovers a pair of poachers whom the Sheriff quickly arrests. Huntingdon later frames Hugh for treason, believing that he was secretly protecting the poachers. The Sheriff's daughter, Priscilla, defies her father by having a secret affair with Lefors, Nottingham's guard captain. Rob invites Marian to attend a Saxon wedding, and they soon fall in love. Following Hugh's imprisonment, one of the poachers is paid to kill him, but accidentally kills an intervening guard. Hugh is accused of the murder and sentenced to death, and Rob arrives in time to witness his father's execution. | ||||||

Rob mourns his father and delivers the news to his mother, Joan. Her health soon deteriorates, and she dies, leaving Rob to live with his uncle Gamewell and cousin Will. Now that Hugh could no longer reclaim his land, Huntingdon bribes the Sheriff and the Bishop of Hereford to obtain the deed to the Locksley estate and becomes an earl. Marian learns that her father's actions caused Hugh's death, and is told to depart Nottingham to attend the court of Queen Eleanor in London. Rob and Will routinely argue, leading to Rob being kicked out of the house after a fight between them ends with Gamewell being injured. Will then heads to London before Rob can reconcile with him, and Rob breaks his bow in frustration. As Marian leaves Nottingham, she secretly meets with Rob to confess that her father was behind Hugh's death. Gamewell later gifts Rob a new bow and suggests he participate in an archery competition, with the reward being a royal appointment. While en route to the competition, he is antagonized by Lefors, whom Rob kills in self-defence and flees. | ||||||
