    Summary

    Laws they made there, and life allotted
    To the sons of men, and set their fates.
    ~ Voluspa stanza 20 ~

    Six weeks after Ragnar Lothbrok’s bloody raid on Lindisfarne, the monk Athelstan is struggling to adjust to a life of bondage in the hostile Norwegian wilderness. Plagued by the terrors of his own mind, the looming threat of Ragnar’s return, and Bjorn’s unrelenting hostility, everyday life is hard enough. But when a new danger arises, Athelstan’s already precarious position becomes perilous and as the risks grow greater, he finds himself entangled ever deeper by an oath that he never wanted to make.

    Season 1 AU, diverging part way through 1.04 - Trial.
