Brother Bran was a monk at Readingum Abbey in the late 9th century.[1]
Biography
After the abbey was raided by Vikings and fellow monk Ecbert left to seek aid in finding his brother, Edward, Brother Bran was left in charge of the abbey's reconstruction and its many texts. When Edward managed to return to the abbey, Bran informed him of his brother's departure and gave him the items he had left behind.[1]
Bran received a scroll with a mysterious language, summoning him to Wincestre. There, he, along with a group of hooded figures, agreed that the writings were a miracle, for they all understood the message without ever learning the language. While others believed that the church in England needed to be managed differently, using the ancient script to convert others to the cause, Bran refused to accept that ruling and left the meeting. Outside, a group of Picts who had been at the meeting followed Bran intending to kill him, though they were stopped by Edward, Niels Gunnarsson, and Adelaïde.[1]
