My birthright Bebbanburg was cruelly taken
by my Uncle Aelfric.

or the most fearful?

[UHTRED] His men desert him
5
00:00:25,240 --> 00:00:29,000

who weaken those that remain.

of our beloved saint as a good omen

I shall restore their lands to greatness.

and raised with a devout faith.

22

Yes. They're dismantling their camp
and packing their boats.

The feelings that Aethelflaed and I

I think you have another reason
for dragging me into your revenge.

Yes, so you may win honor and reputation.
47

is my standing with God.

- Do you know where he's gone?
- My husband doesn't inform me of anything.

I know he is seeking the bones
of St. Oswald.

Edward, that is grave.
64
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,560
If he is seeking St. Oswald,
he is seeking to break from Wessex.
65
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,800
Many Mercians believe
that uniting the body of the saint

Yes, but the people want peace, not war.

Still, it is a signal of intention.

Or a ploy to pander
