#i've seen people headcanon that cynlaef is sihtric's eldest

okay but like what the fuck happened to Sihtric's oldest? He had the little boy in Winchester in s3 that was only a couple of years younger than young Uhtred and then he's just... never mentioned again? Like even when Uhtred is introducing Eadith to Sihtric's children, he never mentions the fact that Sihtric has an older son. Or are we supposed to assume that Hindr (the boy that passes Sihtric his axe in the scene just before Eadith is reintroduced to the Coccham Squad, Sihtric says his name) is that same kid????
