Gods
Torn between two faiths, Athelstan pores over his journal looking for answers about where his heart belongs in this "Vikings" webisode.
Honor

Sin
Athelstan reflects on the joy of being cleansed from sin and recounts a story of honor, sacrifice, punishment, and betrayal.

Athelstan comes to believe women shape the world much more than even the bravest men. His belief appears true when Princess Aslaug causes a rupture that will affect everyone in Kattegat.
Family
Athelstan reflects on the family he has come to love since arriving in Kattegat. He would do anything for this new family, but this love and devotion now threatens Athelstan's life.

Love
The Seer tells Athelstan that he will soon be tested by earthly pleasures far greater than those he has so far faced. Athelstan is left wondering if he will have the strength to resist this new temptation.
Harvest

The Choice
Athelstan's crisis of faith reaches a tipping point when the Seer proclaims that he can no longer walk both paths – Athelstan must choose his God.
