Bruh I was about to get up in arms about the existence of the Friar Tuck character in the Robin Hood folklore because of timeline issues. Because if King Richard dies in 1199 and the Franciscan order isn’t established until 1209, how could the merry men have a friar living in their midst? But then I discovered that the first mendicant order (the Carmelites) was established in 1155 so actually it’s fine that Friar Tuck lives there. And also he was probably one of those rogue spiritualists “forgiving” all the egregious sins the men committed that others wouldn’t forgive.
