Outline
In Kievan Rus’, the crew continue their journey along a frozen river until it breaks and the sled becomes trapped. Whilst the sled is eventually freed, the ice dam that kept the river frozen has since thawed. The crew are forced to release the boat from the sled but both Eleana and Vitomir fall through the ice. Only Eleana can be saved in time as Vitomir drowns and Eleana is revealed to be his daughter. In Kattegat, Olaf receives word that Harald has met with their uncle in Novgorod and plans to travel there with Svein. In London, Emma imprisons Aelfwynn and she is tortured by Canute’s huscarl Agnarr for information about her brother and Godwin. Aelfwynn reveals that Godwin wishes for his future children to rule England as she succumbs to her wounds. Emma informs Godwin of Aelfwynn’s death and Gytha confides in him. In Jomsborg, Gudrid chastises Jorundr for mixing with the pagan refugees as she becomes suspicious of the now heavily pregnant Freydís. Harekr returns from raiding and angered by Freydís’ actions, sends his Jomsvikings to massacre the refugees, believing that the people of Jomsborg are superior to them and imprisons both Jorundr and Freydís.
