Prince John's lust for gold has finally gone too far! He has made it impossible for a merchant to make a living, being taxed as much as we are. Now he's got the greedy Sheriff of Nottingham checking everyone who comes through the front gate for "contraband" - meaning all the good stuff he's trying to keep for himself! Good thing you know the Sheriff better than Prince John does. That shifty, no-good, greedy fellow might be intimidating when he stands in front of the city gate, but let's be honest, he is not above taking a well-placed bribe to look the other way.
You have come to Nottingham with your Goods on market day, and the only thing standing between you and your hard-earned profits is the Sheriff. All you need to do is bluff or bribe your way past him... or maybe, tell the truth!
