Road to bebbanburg:
Uhtred’s journey to reclaim Bebbanburg was fraught with danger. His uncle Ælfric had fortified the fortress, surrounding himself with loyal soldiers and treacherous mercenaries. Uhtred and his band faced skirmishes and ambushes, but their determination never wavered.
One night, as they camped by a river, Uhtred spoke to his men. "We fight not just for a fortress, but for honor, for justice. Bebbanburg is my birthright, and with your help, we will take it back."
The men cheered, their spirits bolstered by Uhtred’s words. They knew the risks, but also the glory that awaited them.
