There are already debates about whether or not Uhtred dies on the finish of “Seven Kings Must Die.” Simplest six kings are observed to die, except Ælfweard’s dying counts. Which means that, since Uhtred is all however thought to be a king, his dying should rely. Regardless of the ultimate resolution, there may be one undeniable fact: Uhtred sees Valhalla.
He sees Odin’s nice corridor, the place all his Danish other folks ceremonial dinner and giggle and get ready for day after today’s combat. On the first desk is his early Danish circle of relatives. There is Brida, on the entrance. Then Uhtred’s followed father, Earl Ragnar. Then an early best friend, Clapa, and in spite of everything his sometimes-friend, sometimes-enemy, Haesten. That is the desk Uhtred longs for, even though in fact it additionally approach he’ll by no means see his Saxon pals once more.
As Uhtred is left with this nice conundrum, he notices the tears of his earthbound pals, and we surprise: The place does Uhtred of Bebbanburg, born a Saxon however raised a Dane, cross when he dies? Two issues are positive: Brida by no means left the entrance of his center, and he’ll no longer cross down in historical past for all he has finished.
