Edward's army is gradually cornered to the cliff and many soldiers fell and dies one after another.
Uhtred finds Stiorra's Danish fighters stationing in a nearby woods and convinces them to join the battle to rescue Edward, promising this place would become their homeland. Uhtred delivers an eloquent and emotional speech that moves the Danes' minds.
The involvement of Uhtred's group and the Danes helps freeing Edward from the trap and changes the balance of the battle. The Wessex Army wins. Constantin orders his troops to set fire to Bebbanburg.
Uhtred stands inside the city of Bebbanburg watching it begin to die under the fire in boundless despair, but suddenly it rains like another destiny reckoned upon him. This tim is LUCK.
As Lord of Bebbanburg, Uhtred declares to Edward that it would be a neutral city between Scotland and Wessex, and not part of Edward's kingdom. However, Bebbanburg still recognizes Wessex as the overlord and would pay annual tribute.
Uhtred argues that Edward does not have the qualities to bring both English and Danes under one roof, and that the cause of a single kingdome of Englad would wait for Edward's descendant, ie Prince Aethelstan.
