During this invasion, Danes are said to be the upbringing community of a boy named Uhtred. Uhtred was born as a Saxon but was raised and brought up by the people of Danes.
His birthright was now questioned because he was asked to choose between his birthplace or the one where he grew up. The major event in the story takes place when he is put in a difficult situation to prove his loyalty towards the people of Dane.
