When Vikings raided the abbey of Lindisfarne in 793 they found the island of Britain awash in bloodshed and political upheaval.

Over the next several generations, invasions of Danish Vikings to the east and Norwegian Vikings to the west added to the melee. Out of these struggles would emerge the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of England. That event would also directly shape the destiny of one pivotal family for untold generations, directly impacting the creation and direction of Anglo-Saxon England.
