The next day King Ecbert's had come to an agreement to meet with one of the northmen to talk only for a hostage exchange with the Saxons. Ragnar had informed that he himself will be the one going to the Kings royal villa while the King son Æthelwulf will be arriving at their camp. The gates to the villa opened as a few guards had walked out before Athelwulf appeared on a black horse.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Lizzie questioned with a concerned look on her face as she looked at her father who sent her an assured smile cupping the side of her face and replied, " I'll be just fine. Don't worry about me and If I do not return I want you to kill the Kings Son" Lizzie sighed nodding her head in agreement as Ragnar smiled pressing a kiss to the blonde's girl head before handing her his weapon before he began to ride towards the entrance of the Villa.
It didn't take long until Ragnar returned back to camp a little while later after he spoke with King Ecbert about an alliance he was interested in making with Ragnar, " what else did this King of Wessex have to say?" King Horik curiously questioned with a suspicion look on his face as he stared at Ragnar who hummed as he took a sip of ale before looking up at the King and informed with a shrug of his shoulders, "That he might offer us land"
King Horik scoffed in disbelief narrowing his eyes at Ragnar and resorted, "and you believe him? Can you trust him, this Christian?" Athelstan shifted uncomfortably in his seat at the looks he was receiving from both Horik and Floki as Ragnar glanced around the group of people and stated, " he wants something in return" King Horik frowned as he stared down at Ragnar, "What does he want in return?" King Horik inquired but when Ragnar was about to respond a horn was heard from afar causing Lizzie to stand up sharing a look with Ragnar who looked as equally as confused as she did. " it's one of mine. It's Thorvard!" Horik informed as everyone stood up making their way towards the shore, "Thorvard!"
The boat reached the dock causing Horik to laugh as he walked forward to greet his friend, "Thorvard. Welcome!" Thorvard nodded his head with a small smile and replied, "Thank you, my lord" he then turned his attention towards Ragnar and informed, "I bring grave news for Ragnar Lothbrok" Lizzie and Ragnar had an worried and concerned look on their faces as Thorvard approached them, "Your lands are lost, invaded by Jarl Borg."
"What?" Elizabeth asked in surprise with her eyes widened as Thorvard nodded his head in confirmation sending Ragnar a sympathetic look, "Your family has fled. Only the gods know where. Now, Jarl Borg lives in your Great Hall and rules in your place" Ragnar had a furious look on his face clenching his fists together as the news that Jarl Borg had took over his home and that his family are nowhere to be found.

Later that night, Elizabeth and Ragnar were in their tent packing their belongings so they could leave the following day to come up with a plan to find his family and take back Kattegat, " you're leaving?" King Horik questioned walking into the tent with a few of his men causing Ragnar to scoff in disbelief shooting him a look and confirmed, " of course I am. Lizzie will be coming with me. We must find our family. Are you not coming?"
