In the year 990AD, King Aethelred II, known as The Unready, presided over a divided kingdom, with his mother Queen Ælfthryth and the Church exerting significant influence. The Viking Warlord, Olaf Tryggvason, sensed the kingdom's weakness and brought the ruthless Jomsvikings to the Saxon coastline, eager for war and plunder. Alongside Lord Byrthnoth, Ealdorman of the East Saxons, and Beornoth, his Saxon Thegn, they formed a formidable force of oath-sworn Viking killers, matching the brutality and war-skills of the Norse invaders. Their mission was to safeguard the Kingdom against internal threats and the treacherous seas.
Amidst a desperate struggle for the survival of the Saxon Kingdom, these brave men were pushed to their limits, facing treachery, betrayal, and relentless enemies. The fate of the kingdom rested in their hands. Could Beornoth, the Saxon Thegn, defeat his adversaries and preserve the Kingdom from destruction?
