    Summary

    After the Battle of Brunanburh, Uhtred is severely injured. He wants Osbert to look after Aethelstan, but the damage he has caused is not just skin deep. Will Osbert accept an oath to Aethelstan, or has the Young King pushed his subjects a little too far? Will Aethelstan cope without either of his fathers by his side?

    OR

    The fix-it fic to fix all of the problems that Aethelstan caused in Seven Kings must die.

    Rated E for language, graphic depictions of violence, dark themes and shameless smut! Readers please be advised!

    Fic currently undergoing much overdue maintenance, hoping to have both parts of the Epilogue out by the end of 2026 :)
