It was impossible for him to be oblivious to the tension that occurred when they both shared the same space. There was a certain anticipation, a certain electricity in the air that Uthred had only felt with enemies and with the people who later became his lovers.
It all started in Somerset.
This story can be read as the prequel to "Temptation and Punishment"

Summary
"Well, where is he?"
"Sorry, my Lord."For a few seconds he says no more, as if searching in his head for the right words. "He was not feeling very well .."
"Is he wounded, Father Beocca? According to your own words, when Uhtred arrived in Winchester, he had not been seriously injured."
The annoyance in Alfred's voice is noticeable. Beocca closes his eyes, imprisoned by his own speech. The discomfort increasing every minute.
"No, my lord. It is not physical injuries that afflict him. It is something different .."
After his days as a slave, Uhtred returns to Winchester. Nothing is the same. Alfred must collect the pieces from a broken man.
(This can be read as a previous part of "temptation and punishment" )

Summary
"Beocca told me one day that God put temptations to test us." Alfred seeks his gaze in the gloom. "And then he sent the heathens to punish us for falling into them."

"How can it be possible?" The king continues after a moment. "How can it be possible that God has sent temptation and punishment in the same person?"
Uthred kidnaps the King of Wessex.

Summary
-Beocca me dijo un día que Dios nos ponía tentaciones para probarnos.-Alfred busca su mirada en la penumbra.-Y que luego enviaba a los paganos para castigarnos por caer en ellas.
Por algunos segundos, no dice más. Afuera, el canto de un búho se hace oír en la noche. El viento susurra entre los árboles.
-¿Cómo puede ser posible?-Continua el rey luego de un instante.-¿Cómo puede ser posible que Dios haya enviado a la tentación y al castigo en una misma persona?
Uthred secuestra al rey de Wessex.

Summary
"I am nothing to him, and he is nothing to me."
It had been a year since Beamfloat, and Uhtred had never wanted to see the king again. There was nothing left to be said, after the library. Nothing left but cold and ash - but when Alfred marched back into his life again, Uhtred, his men, and his king are swept up into a wild, whirlwind journey, across sea and ice, unbidden as always to the wild whims of fate.
Sequel to "Rumination" - but can be read as a stand-alone as well.
