Things were heating up in England and the acts of the Vikings didn't go unnoticed by those around them.
The other Kingdoms became wary because there was no telling what would happen if the Vikings managed to hold onto Northumbria as it could serve as a potential base to launch other attacks deeper into this country.
But they were also aware that Osberht was sure to respond, Northumbria remained his Kingdom and there was no way he was going to let it fall.
Osberht was a warrior that many Kings feared, even in his advanced age they dared not cross him. He was a skilled King who rose to the ranks with his swordsmanship alongside his noble blood unlike most of the other Kings that rose to their position due to their noble blood alone, a different kind of animal forged by blood and hardship.
Osberht was on his way, he had a strong army, assembling some of his best warriors.
