Day 6, Ingimund's March

Apparently our recent success over Dorestad and been heard afar, for a stout man named Ingimund had called upon us to persue glory in Odin's name. He planned to invade the island of Anglesey. No small feat, for it was very heavily defended. But I yearned for battle, for it had been many a seasons since last I had felt the surge and frenzy within my muscles. Myself and 14 other men volunteered our weapons in search of glory. We sailed a single longboat towards the isle where Ingimund had said to meet. Along the journey we met with seven other vessels each with more men than ours. But we would need many more to over power a place such as Anglesey. Over the next couple of days a few more boats pulled up on the shore. But we were still short. At dawn we gathered our forces and marched upon the fortress at Anglesy. As the viking forces approached the stone walls Ingjmund realized something grave for he called off the assault. We had all boarded our longboats before Ingimund spoke of his unsuspecting retreat. He explained that he noticed English flags flying at Anglesey. The English had been known to help the Welsh when it suited their own needs. But I owed my life to Ingimunds keen eye for if we had attacked we would have opposed both Welsh and English forces and would have been slaughtered. We sailed home thanking the Gods.
