Wearily looking around, Athena followed Uhtred through the door, looking over at Sigebriht. "Lord Uhtred." He said, leaning off of the wall. "And Lady Athena."
Athena simply ignored the man, watching as Æthelwold closed the door behind Finan. "Lord Sigebriht." Uhtred nodded his head. "You stand with Æthelwold?"
"Sigebriht has his own mind." Æthelwold answered for the man, walking towards the table.
"I stand for a strong Wessex." Sigebriht added, wearily looking at the three whom had walked in. "Where exactly do you stand, lord, may I ask?" He turned to Uhtred. "Is it with Edward?"
"You say it as though there are men against Edward." Uhtred tilted his head to the side, as if he was analysing Sigebriht.
Sigebriht slowly nodded his head. "There are men who doubt him, yes." He explained. "But if Uhtred and Athena were to stand alongside him—"
"I was at Ethandun." Æthelwold interrupted, making Athena turn her head to the side to look at him. "I stood beside you in a shield wall. He is barely a man."
Athena raised her brow at his words, sharing a look with Uhtred. "And Alfred could barely lift a sword above his head, yet he was a man to follow." Uhtred reminded.
"I say again, Edward is not Alfred." Æthelwold continued to push the fact Edward was not going to be a good king. "He is not a man to follow."
"And you are?" Athena asked, tilting her head to the side as she pointed at him. "You think the men of Wessex would follow you? As their king?" She shook her head with an amused look.
Æthelwold pursed his lips at her words, which obviously did not sit right with him. "I know how to lead a Kingdom, Edward does not. The Danes know this."
"You're still with them." Finan sighed from behind Athena, shaking his head in annoyance. "Admit it."
"I am for Wessex." Æthelwold firmly stated, his eyes narrowing at the Irishman.
"Lord, you did not answer my question." Lord Sigebriht interrupted, looking at Uhtred with a raised brow. "Where does Uhtred stand?"
