I honestly agree with what King Harold did. Instead of saying no as is her right as a free viking woman she made a pact with him. He risked his life his brothers' life and those close/loyal to him to achieve his end of the pact. We dont knoe wat he lost to get where he at and she marries an Earl not even a jarl. He or his bother could have easily died from a stray arrow i would have killed her so quick
