I started thinking about the series of
Vikings who are full of Odin mythology. What if the writers of Vikings the
series actually use that myth how would it look like?
Would Athelstan get challenged to get that
sword out the heart of the oak? Or should we give Rollo that shot after he
invaded France together with Ragnar.
Fact is we know there was a King called
Athelstan. Rollo the Walker or Rollo the Viking became the duke of Normandy.
In one of the articles I read note that I
am not sure if it is true. That Arthur wasn’t English at all. (1) But used to
live in France. So if the series would go that far we could have our own tale of
the Excalibur.
We also know that King Athelstan drove the
Vikings out of England. He conquered the last Vikings in York. The Vikings
settled in Scotland and with the scots they battled with King Athelstan after a
while the battle of Hastings was a fact.
Rollo or Athelstan could be living the
Arthurian tales.
We could make this legend work in the
series. It is not yet told in one of the Vikings episodes.
