"But I told Alfred the truth. Go on, he's waiting for you."

Alfred was on the river terrace. His guards stood behind him, lined against the house, while the king was seated on a wooden chair. I paused in the doorway, surprised because Alfred's face, usually so pallid and solemn, had an animated look. He was even smiling. Gisela was seated next to him and the king was leaning forward, talking, and Gisela, whose back was to me, was listening. I stayed where I was, watching the rarest of sight, Alfred happy.

i am once again thinking about how much alfred must have respected iseult to attend her pagan funeral. they only knew each other for such a short while but her actions must have had such a profound effect on him.

Alfred saying he would have died long ago but wanted to see Uhtred on last time that's what I heard that's what he said nobody touch me

keep mumbling.

you're talking nonsense,

nonsense,

why do you pray to God

when i pray to you,

your crown worth nothing

with the way you pale every time you stand,

and i want to catch you

but you only trust in the hands you can't see,

and now,

still,

my blood boiling with the rage and love i feel,

for a man that's only dust,

keep mumbling,

i beg,

why did the God you prayed to

turn you into a shadow?

I stalk your tumblr every so often btw, this is just the best thing ive ever read, will never NOT reblog
