King Ecbert -"After I heard about their raids into northumbria, I realized it was only a matter of time before they came ashore here. When I lived at the court of the emperor Charlemagne, These northmen had already emerged from their lairs to attack parts of his empire. I was with Charlemagne's party at a harbor town in southern gaul and as we sat eating supper, a fleet of pirates attacked the harbor. There was some confusion about their identity, but from the build of their ships and their speed through the water, the emperor recognized them at once as northmen. After a lightning attack... They made their escape. The emperor's men took up the chase, but they were soon out-sailed and now it is our turn to deal with these ruffians, these pagans... But deal with them we shall... And must."
