Biography
Esobert was likely born in the city of Wincestre, where he lived for a time. Sometime during his life, Esobert developed an intense crush on Princess Æthelflæd, future Queen of Mercia. One day, he climbed an observation tower in an attempt to retrieve flowers from a nearby tree to give to Æthelflæd. This stunt attracted shocked bystanders including several children, Æthelflæd, her mother, and the Viking Shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir. After being assisted by Eivor, Esobert was able to give the flowers to Æthelflæd, declaring that he would become a king, and that Æthelflæd would be his queen as he did. His confession was humored by Æthelflæd's mother, Ealhswith, who said the two would need to wait until they were both adults and had Alfred's approval.[1]
