God I fucking love being a monk at the Monastery of Lindisfarne on this fine morning of June 8th, 793. I love looking at all the gold and silver objects and alive monks that live here.
NEVER FORGET
Got a lot of nice silver there…be a shame if something…happened to it
Oh to be a monk waiting for your viking prince to come carry you and all this gold off.
1. Ubbe: Just a nice guy. Is actually a good husband and a better father to Bjorn’s kids than Bjorn himself. Tried so hard in the settlements on Iceland and Greenland. Loves his misses as much as I do.
2. Ivar: Not necessarily a good guy, but has a lot of character growth and probably the most interesting of the five. I just really loved his arc.
3. Hvitserk: Always felt the most human out of all his brothers. Struggled with the constant violence and their position in that society.
4. Sigurd: Literally no opinion. Bit of an idiot for pissing off Ivar but that’s it really.
5. Bjorn: I can’t truly explain my hatred for Bjorn. His wives were always more badass than him. His daughter dies and he just doesn’t care. Makes shitty decision after shitty decision. I just don’t like the man and began to enjoy the show more once he died. He’s just a whiny fuck. Similar to how much I hated Jon Snow by the time season 8 had finished.

The Valknut sign sits in the middle, while the encircling inscription in Futhark is a quote or Ragnar’s - ‘That is how we win and that is how we die’. To further emphasize his affiliation with the god Odin, we put the two all-seeing ravens Huginn and Muninn at the top.
“On the Eve”, of a great battle? The title would imply we have a build up to a battle this episode. But we actually have a battle this episode! And we’ll finish it next week! This week, Kattegat is attacked by that “bastard son of an earl” that Halfdan recruited. I never learned his name, and it doesn’t matter now. We see Torvi fallen, struck by at least two arrows. Her eyes were twitching so we…
By Lesley Gayle This week has major spoilers so watch before you read further. Brace yourselves. Hirst finishes off the season with suicide, matricide, fratricide and what would have been regicide, except His Regalness renounces his throne and kills himself. Here goes. The battle between Vikings and English finishes off, it’s a bloodbath. Aethelwulf releases his men from duty to save themselves.…
