╰ ✦ Wessex╭ ᘒ ✦Athena clung onto the reigns of her horse, looking over her shoulder at the Saxons that followed herself, Uhtred and Brida.
Uhtred had gone to his childhood home, claiming he would claim what was his, and what his uncle had stolen from him.
"Head for the woods!" Uhtred told them, making Athena nod her head as she held onto the reigns, her knuckles turning white as they turned towards the woods, not stopping.
Athena dodged some of the branches as she followed her brother, looking around with wide eyes. "Go right. There's a gully over the ridge." He told them as the women nodded their heads, turning their horses into that direction.
Uhtred followed behind them as they went into the ridge, listening to Uhtred's uncle claiming he wanted Uhtred found.
Athena held her breath until the sounds of hooves disappeared. She sighed as she looked over at Uhtred, who turned to the pair.
"He looked like my father." Uhtred uttered as he slowly got off from his horse.
"He knows you're alive, he'll keep looking for you." Brida warned him in a hushed whisper, holding onto her horse.
"Let him." He shrugged his shoulders as he walked towards them. "I'm going to kill him and take back what's mine." He told them, walking over to a tree branch.
"He had an army, choice of the Danes." Brida reminded him as Athena stayed silent, stroking her horse's head. "All you have is Athena and me."
"No." Uhtred shook his head, tying the rope around the branch. "We have Ubba. We go to him with our story and work his army, we avenge Ragnar's death and we take back Bebbanburg." He told them with a slight grin, soaking back toward his horse.
"It's that simple?" Brida questioned with a tilted head.
"Yes." Uhtred nodded, climbing back onto his horse with a sigh and holding onto its reigns. "Yes."
Athena lifted her head, bitting the inside of her cheek as she turned to Brida, who sighed, shaking her head.
