He's a nice guy and he also had a frankly adorable curiousity about him. People are more willing to listen if a person shows interest in them than someone who's just going to shoot their gods down.

I feel a little sorry for Ansgar in a way. I think he came into the village with the idea of 'saving' the people and becoming a sort of 'hero for christ', if his fantasy was anything to go by. Then of course it all goes wrong.

Definitely, the more he tries to stop things, the worse things get. That Ragnar was willing to convert to Christianity just to be with Athelstan-that's intense.
