.....
‘Why doesn’t Ubba have a nickname?’
‘He does. He’s called Ubba the Horrible.’ He laughed, because he had made the nickname up, and I laughed because I was happy. Ragnar liked my company and, with my long fair hair, men mistook me for his son and I liked that. Rorik should have been with us, but he was sick that day, and the women were plucking herbs and chanting spells. ‘He’s often sick,’ Ragnar said, ‘not like Ragnar,’ he meant his eldest son who helped hold onto Ivar’s lands in Ireland, ‘Ragnar’s built like an ox,’ he went on, ‘never gets sick! He’s like you, Uhtred.’ He smiled, thinking of his eldest son, who he missed. ‘He’ll take land and thrive. But Rorik? Perhaps I shall have to give him this land. He can’t go back to Denmark.’
