Aye, sorry about the delay. I've been swatting up on the medieval church, as you may have noticed by the links additions. I've actually had a half-finished page edit sitting on my screen since yesterday night; I shall finish it tonight. --James\\Talk 07:47, 4 April 2006 (PDT)
Marcus investigation (copy from James's talk page)
Do you want to kick off the next morning for Marcus? I'm planning on seeking out the bailiff more or less first thing, although any information I can glean from the priest about the bailiff beforehand would be great. Or, if I can make some assumptions about where I'd find the bailiff, I can kick it off. --JBforMarcus 07:49, 24 March 2006 (PST)
As it is Sunday, I daresay the most natural course of action for a chap like Marcus would be to attend church at the manor, and bump into the bailiff thereabouts. He has to go to church, and it is very unlikely he'd go to any other church. Which service might be an issue, but given Marcus's intent on learning more about the community, there is probably no better way to ensure he has seen pretty much every living human within a decent walk of the church, than to attend all services throughout the day. I'm not clued up on medieval services yet, barring monastic ones, but will make a point of doing so as I write that thread.

Latin
Details of latin used in the stories? What a good idea... :D --James\\Talk 10:12, 27 March 2006 (PST)
Taking Holy Orders...
Hi Jeff,
I'm not particularly worried about which order Marcus is from. If he is a blackfriar, then I can either bend the setting ever so slightly so that they are as established in England as they are twenty or so years later, or he can be one of the very first blackfriar's in England, which would be interesting. I really don't mind which way, but it changes PC reactions, presence of Abbeys, etc.
