OverviewBron, an enslaved young Saxon, does the hard work that his master, the village blacksmith, would rather avoid. His reward is a lack of food and cruel jeers from other, non enslaved children in the village. But, unbeknown to all, war is brewing. And when a famous Saxon warlord arrives at his village Bron gets a chance to prove that honour and bravery are not only for those who are already free...
