And the three Viking raider jarls continue to hold Grantabridge. Yet, Coelwulf has so far managed to dismiss all of these concerns, consumed with worry for his missing warrior, Pybba. But while searching for Pybba, events overtake Coelwulf, his men are murdered, and his aunt taken, but by which of his enemies? If Coelwulf fails to rescue his aunt alive, what hope does he have for keeping his kingdom secure? The year is AD875, and the men of Mercia must once more ride into the fray.
