The stories would be too long, don't you think?

Adorno:
Good idea with some history lessons.  :)
I had no idea King Penda's Mercia reached as far as the southern coast.
Interesting to read how Penda was the last heathen king,
and yet there were other kings who never quite left behind their heathen ways, and were even buried/burned by them.
