For a long time, Athelstan had always believed and prayed to God...but doubt was growing in him, especially when he met a young viking, that told him much about the Nordic gods.

It was like their gods would answer and love the Danes and Vikings, not like his god, who seemed to hate him.

But didn't god had a reason to hate him?

He was a sinner, that did everything in his might to please his god, but it wasn't soothing his sins or made them up.

He felt like the worst man alive.
