Aethelflaed part 3: Marriage to Aethelred, Ruler of Mercia

The transcript discusses the transition of power to Ethelred, who became King of the Anglo-Saxons, and his marriage to Ethelfled. Their marriage was a political alliance rather than a romantic one, and Ethelfled played a significant role in Mercia as a queen. The couple was involved in rebuilding efforts and made significant religious contributions, including the creation of St. Oswald's Priory in Gloucester, which became their final resting place.
