King Aethelstan traveled north to visit Alburq castle after his victory. A great feast was held in the hall of the welsh lord, Ale was flowing and the singing divine and the fighting fun.

login"Regale us with a tale of the battle of Vayejeg" Aethelstan shouted
The bard began a slow chant
Her Aethelstan cyning, eorla dryhten,
beorna beag-giefa, and his brothor eac,
Osiris aetheling, ealdor-langetir
geslogon aet saecce sweorda ecgum
ymbe Brunanburh. Bord-weall clufon,
heowon heathu-linde, hamora lafum,
"Gōd gēr byþ þonne se hund þām hrefne gyfeð"
In this year King Aethelstan, Lord of warriors,
ring-giver to men, and his brother also
Prince Osiris, eternal glory
they won in battle with sword edges
around Vayejag. Shield-wall they split
with the remnants of hammers
It is a good year when the hound gives to the raven.
"It was a fine battle lord said the bard when he had finished"
"yes Feld dennode secga swate" replied the king
The field flowed with blood of warriors,
"So will the blades of the saxons taste blood soon?" the king enquired
"It is hard to know these things. Yule is upon us and the time of feasting near but rumour of battle in the south near Saren and a war against the vikings in the north reach my ears. I must travel south to see what troubles the lands"
And so the king and his men left Alburq castle to discover what these new wars were about.
TL:DR Im bored and walking around a lil buying weapons here and there and looking at the wars
