[doesn't want to drink anymore but still smiles] Aghhh! Oh! No more.
We don't like those in our house to go hungry or thirsty. [gives him something to drink anyway] I am very curious about England. Does it have one king who rules over the whole country?
There are four kingdoms with four kings. You landed in the kingdom of Northumbria. The king of Northumbria is called Aelle. He is a great king. A powerful king.
Then why did his men not protect your temple?
Before you came, we had no need to protect our monastery. We lived in peace. Everyone respected it as a place of God.
Why does your God need silver and gold, hmm? He must be greedy. Like Loki! We have greedy gods too.
My God is not greedy. His kingdom is not of this world.
Then why is his kingdom so full of treasure?
Christian people give away their riches to the churches and monasteries in order to save their souls.
What are their souls? [pause] I want to learn some of your language. Will you teach me, priest?
