Maid Marian
Maid Marian was the lover of Robin Hood.
According to one account, Marian met Ian Chesterton and Susan when they tried to rescue her from the dungeon of the Sheriff of Nottingham. After she was rescued, she promised to keep the dead Robin's memory alive. Her accounts of him became the legends of his adventures. (PROSE: The Thief of Sherwood)
