Askeladd crosses the river and escapes from Thorkell into Wales with Canute. However, Askeladd’s men are ambushed by a group of soldiers hiding behind the boulders at the border of the kingdom of Brycheiniog. Askeladd attempts to negotiate with their messenger, and reveals his plan.
What a rough welcome!
!يا له من ترحيب عدائيّ
Euer Land begrüßt uns
etwas stürmisch.
¡Qué bienvenida más áspera!
¡Qué recibimiento tan hostil!
Je trouve l’accueil de votre pays
bien brutal !
Que boas-vindas mais agressivas!
