Ragnar requested to speak with King Askild outside of the dining hall, an audience Askild granted him because they could not risk anyone eavesdropping on their conversation.
"King Askild, there is something off," Ragnar told Askild but this news did not look like a surprise to Askild. He knew exactly what Ragnar meant.
"Birger's ambition is bigger than he let on, I expected this much but I know one thing is for certain and that is him coming for my head," Askild responded with an unbothered face.
Ragnar was worried because Birger risked his life by even coming to Kattegat.
There was no way he did not have contingency plans should things go south.
"We have to bid our time, we have a war coming up but I have a question for you Ragnar…" King Askild said, turning to face Ragnar.
"Is your brother, Ulf, trustworthy? I will take your word for it," Askild asked Ragnar, this was a difficult moment as Ulf has had his questionable moments but so has everyone.
