Askeladd and his men continue their march to escape from Thorkell. However, their march comes to a halt at the Severn River. Askeladd hands a letter to an old man operating a ferry across the river and tells him to deliver the letter to the other side immediately. As soon as he hears the addressee’s name, the old man sets off in his boat.
It wasn't a Norse ship. It 
didn't have a dragonhead.
.لكنّها لم تكن سفنًا نورديّة
Aber nordische Schiffe waren das nicht.
Sie hatten keinen Drachenkopf.
No era un barco escandinavo.
No tenía una cabeza de dragón.
No era un barco nórdico.
No tenía cabeza de dragón.
C’était pas des bateaux norois.
Ils avaient pas de tête de dragon.
Non era una barca vichinga.
Non aveva la testa di drago.
Não era um navio nórdico.
Não tinha cabeça de dragão.
