[NARRATOR] I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred.

I helped the Saxons defeat the Danes.

Cnut was killed,
but I left Brida to a terrible fate.

As Aethelred lay dying,

We will betroth the Lady Aelfwynn

to the successor
and seal the bond between our lands.
10

[AETHELFLAED] I am concernedabout the fate of our daughter.

So, what is it that you want?
12
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,880
At the very least, you agree not
to betroth her to some heartless fool.
13

The king wishes to betroth me
to your daughter.

Have Aethelflaed confined
until this is settled.

She was rescued by an unexpected ally.
19

Come, I've alerted the man
that protects you.
20

He's outside the window.
21

And I have pledged to protect Aelfwynn
on the dangerous road that lies ahead.

No. Edward and his men

We must move faster to have any chance.
37

I bring a message from Lady Aethelflaed.

Did your brother send you?
39
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,640
No, he does not know I am here.

- I do not lie.

How did you find us?
43
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,160
Lady Aethelflaed herself said you spoke
of traveling the road to Ceaster.
44
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,320
There's no one else, Lord.
45

- And you took the road alone?
- Yes.
46

And she wants you to meet her
at the ruins of St. Milburg's Priory.
47
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,800
St. Milburg is on the road to Wenloca,
and we have passed it.
48
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,840
It might be a trick to divert us.

I've done what I promised.
You can choose to believe it or not.
50

- And where do you go?
- I do not care!
51
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,280
I have family in Frankia.

at least she's under our control.

Without much silver
and only Lord Aldhelm to protect her.

Then she may be at Wenloca already.
62

We think his children are with him.

He was seen on the road
with a number of children.

Speak of this to no one.
We need to maintain a semblance of order.

I fear doubts were already whispered
by the Ealdormen.

and that I have decided.

With respect, Lord,
your decision is not final here.

that the room

- She conspired with Uhtred to betray us.

They are saying your sister Eadith
was the one who conspired to release her.

know herself. Get your men to track them.

Lady Aethelflaed and Aelfwynn are missing?

None of them have the sickness.

I am not concerned about Edward.
532
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,240
He seems to have come to his senses,
at last.
533
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:07,560
But why has my daughter
taken leave of hers?
534
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,800
You imprisoned your own sister?

[SIGHS]
536
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:34,480
It was a temporary measure
to keep the town at peace.
537
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:39,240
And then sent men of violence
to hunt her and Aelfwynn down?
538
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:40,920
No violence has been ordered.
539
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,440
You send an army, you start a battle.
540
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,600
And now your sister is in harm's way.

- My son is protected in Winchester.

- I sent him there...
- Mother!
547
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:17,520
I sent him there,
because threats were made against him.
548
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,400
Do you know
if he has been taken by Uhtred?
549
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,480
I believe Uhtred left with children.
550
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,640
So, at best, two of my grandchildren...

How have you strayed so far?
554
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,560
Forging an alliance with Mercia
is everything.
555
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,800
I did not intend to harm any child.
556
00:42:54,240 --> 00:42:59,080
But children should not be dragged
into politics, Edward. We know this.

A good sign. Next village we get to,
we can get some horses, move more quickly.

Without wind, the sickness
cannot have reached this far north.
