**[03:23] EMMA**
Einar!
**[03:29] EINAR**
What are you doing?
**[03:30] EMMA**
I could ask you the same thing!
**[03:32] EMMA**
Why're you attackin' that tree?
**[03:34] EMMA**
You tryna crush the house?
**[03:37] LOTTA**
Are you gonna be a woodcutter, Einar?
**[03:39] EINAR**
No.
**[03:41] EINAR**
I'm training for battle.
**[03:43] EINAR**
Behold my power.
**[03:46] EMMA**
You're a big lad,
but you'd be useless in battle.
**[03:50] EMMA**
Get ready for lunch.
**[03:51] LOTTA**
I'm so hungry...
**[03:57] EINAR**
You don't have to throw a knife at me.
**[04:00] EINAR**
You're holding dishes and spoons.
**[04:02] EMMA**
You wouldn't mind a dish?
**[04:09] LOTTA**
They say bears have to
eat lots before winter.
**[04:14] EMMA**
Huh.
**[04:19] EMMA**
So, why are you trainin' again all of a sudden?
**[04:20] LOTTA**
Thankya.
**[04:25] EINAR**
Well, because I gotta protect this place.
**[04:32] EINAR**
After it was all burnt to ashes,
it's finally been rebuilt.
**[04:38] EINAR**
I'm not letting that happen again.
**[04:43] EINAR**
I'm sure Dad would—
**[04:46] LOTTA**
Mister Guthmur's milk is so good.
**[04:49] EMMA**
Right? That man knows his way around a teat.
**[04:54] LOTTA**
What are you doin'
with your hands? It's so creepy.
**[04:56] EINAR**
Hey, listen to me.
**[04:57] LOTTA**
Gross!
**[04:58] EMMA**
Don't bother.
**[05:00] EMMA**
Don't poke your nose into warrior stuff.
**[05:04] EINAR**
Doesn't it frustrate you,
always being on the losing side?
**[05:07] EINAR**
Dad died protecting us.
**[05:10] EMMA**
That's right.
**[05:12] EMMA**
And you're alive.
**[05:14] EMMA**
You've rebuilt this village,
**[05:15] EMMA**
and you're eating a delicious meal
with two beautiful ladies.
**[05:22] EMMA**
We haven't lost at all.
**[05:38] OLD MAN ON CART**
Hey.
**[05:39] OLD MAN VILLAGER**
Hey, how are you?
**[05:42] CHILD VILLAGER**
Hurry up.
**[06:13] EMMA**
Listen closely. Once we enter
the woods, I want you to run.
**[06:16] EMMA**
Follow the river, and...
**[06:18] EINAR**
Lotta.
**[06:20] EINAR**
Mom.
**[06:31] EMMA**
Don't think. Just run straight ahead.
**[06:35] EMMA**
Your brother and I will be with you.
**[07:13] EINAR**
Mom!
**[07:24] EINAR**
You ready? Let's get you up.
**[07:28] EINAR**
Mom!
**[07:39] EMMA**
Einar, run. Leave me.
**[07:44] EINAR**
I'm not...
**[07:47] EINAR**
Come on. Stand, damn it.
**[07:49] LOTTA**
Mom?
**[07:51] LOTTA**
Mom!
**[08:00] LOTTA**
Mom...
**[08:05] EMMA**
Silly girl...
**[08:09] VIKING B**
There are still people over there.
**[08:12] VIKING C**
Hey, they've got women, too!
**[08:15] VIKING B**
We're on our way, girls!
**[08:29] EMMA**
Stand up, Einar.
**[08:32] EMMA**
Take Lotta and go. Hurry!
**[08:36] EINAR**
Mom...
**[08:40] EMMA**
Even a dying old hag can still manage.
**[08:46] EMMA**
Live.
**[08:51] EMMA**
As long as you're alive, you can...
**[09:04] EMMA**
Ei...nar...
**[09:08] EMMA**
Lotta...
**[09:30] VIKING B**
Why aren't they running?
**[09:32] VIKING C**
Hey, she's pretty cute.
**[09:36] VIKING D**
Your mom's dead, isn't she?
**[09:40] EINAR**
Lotta!
**[09:41] LOTTA**
Let go! Einar!
**[09:43] EINAR**
Lotta!
**[09:44] EINAR**
Let go of her!
**[09:47] LOTTA**
Einar!
**[09:50] LOTTA**
How dare you!
**[09:53] LOTTA**
Einar! Einar!
**[10:05] LOTTA**
You'll pay for—
**[10:17] VIKING C**
What the hell are you doing?
**[10:20] VIKING B**
She freakin' stabbed me!
**[10:23] VIKING C**
Aw, man. What a waste.
**[10:25] VIKING D**
Nothing we can do about it.
**[10:26] VIKING D**
Let's sell the kid for beer money.
**[10:30] VIKING C**
You're such a dumbass.
**[10:31] VIKING B**
I'm sorry, okay?
**[10:33] VIKING C**
Come on. Let's go, beer money.

How is she?
**[12:27] MERCHANT B**
She's not gonna make it.
**[12:29] MERCHANT A**
Shit. Fine, let's move her.
**[12:45] MERCHANTS**
Heave-ho!
**[12:49] EINAR**
Hey!
**[13:01] EINAR**
Hey, what the hell was that for?
**[13:04] EINAR**
You didn't need to throw her overboard!
**[13:10] MERCHANT A**
All right, you're not swollen.
**[13:15] MERCHANT B**
We're handing out blankets.
**[13:17] MERCHANT B**
Keep yourselves warm.
**[13:20] MERCHANT B**
We paid a fortune for you lot.
**[13:22] MERCHANT B**
Don't go getting sick without our say so.
**[13:26] MERCHANT B**
At the very least, stay healthy
until we find a buyer for you.
**[13:29] MERCHANT B**
Got it?
**[13:33] MERCHANT B**
Come on, hurry up!
**[13:35] MERCHANT B**
Take in that sail!
**[14:04] EINAR**
*That's right. I have to live.*
**[14:18] MERCHANT D**
Don't skip the liquor.
It'll improve your color.
**[14:23] MERCHANT C**
Clean every nook and cranny,
especially your heads.
**[14:27] MERCHANT C**
Check each other for lice.
**[14:33] WOMAN B**
How's this?
**[14:37] MERCHANT A**
Hair's good.
**[14:38] MERCHANT A**
Could you do her makeup
so she looks a little younger?
**[14:56] MERCHANT A**
Well? Pretty good selection
this time, don't you think?
**[15:00] CUSTOMER A**
All second-rate crap.
**[15:02] MERCHANT A**
There you go again.
**[15:03] MERCHANT A**
You won't find anything better than ours!
**[15:09] EINAR**
*That's right. I can't stay there.*
**[15:13] EINAR**
* I'll run away.*
* As long as I survive, I can try again.*
**[15:39] WOMAN C**
Hup...
**[15:43] WOMAN C**
Thief!
**[15:46] EINAR**
Sorry!
**[15:54] MERCHANT A**
Hey, Einar.
**[15:56] MERCHANT A**
You still don't get it.
**[16:07] MERCHANT A**
Listen closely, slaves.
**[16:11] MERCHANT A**
Your homes are far, far away.
**[16:14] MERCHANT A**
No matter how much you struggle,
you're never getting back to them.
**[16:17] MERCHANT A**
And naturally,
nobody's gonna help you escape.
**[16:22] MERCHANT A**
Because you're outsiders
and penniless slaves.
**[16:29] MERCHANT A**
Find a good master
and serve him as best you can.
**[16:33] MERCHANT A**
You'll eat way better than if you
run away and end up a beggar.
**[16:38] MERCHANT A**
Before you go running off on adventures,
think real hard about which is better.
**[16:42] MERCHANT A**
You got that, Einar?
**[17:00] EINAR**
I have to live...
**[17:13] CUSTOMER B**
Well, he's not bad, but have you
got any boys with a cuter face?
**[17:20] MERCHANT D**
Ah, I see.
**[17:22] MERCHANT D**
In that case, we've got some
special products for you to look at.
**[17:26] CUSTOMER B**
Oh, really? How exciting.
**[17:29] MERCHANT D**
I'm sure you'll find them satisfactory.
**[17:37] EINAR**
*They're right.*
**[17:40] EINAR**
* Even if I blindly ran away,*
* I wouldn't know where I was going.*
**[17:45] EINAR**
*And besides...*
**[17:50] EINAR**
*I don't have anywhere to go back to.*
**[17:57] EINAR**
* As long as I obediently serve*
* some master somewhere...*
**[18:04] MERCHANT A**
I'm telling you, you sure are lucky.
**[18:08] MERCHANT A**
We just got a huge batch in.
**[18:10] MERCHANT A**
Look, that's him.
**[18:14] MERCHANT A**
Isn't he the one you're looking for?
**[18:42] LEIF**
He looks nothing like him!
**[18:45] LEIF**
He's not blond *or* small!
**[18:47] MERCHANT A**
Huh? Now that I get a better look,
I guess that's not him.
**[18:51] MERCHANT A**
That aside, what do you think?
**[18:54] MERCHANT A**
He's strong and tough. If you buy him now—
**[18:56] LEIF**
I told you, I'm not here to buy a worker.
**[19:01] LEIF**
All I want is to free my relative.
**[19:04] LEIF**
I'm certain he came to this town.
**[19:07] LEIF**
Blond and small...
**[19:09] LEIF**
His name is Thorfinn.
**[19:11] LEIF**
You really have no idea where he is?
**[19:21] LEIF**
I'm sorry.
**[19:26] LEIF**
And sorry to have bothered you.
**[19:27] MERCHANT A**
No problem. Come again soon.
**[19:32] MERCHANT A**
He's never gonna find him.
**[19:37] EINAR**
* So he's walking around*
* looking for his relative.*
**[19:45] EINAR**
*Whoever he's looking for is one lucky guy.*
**[19:55] KETIL**
You there.
**[20:01] KETIL**
Can you speak? Let me see your teeth.
**[20:18] KETIL**
What's your name?
**[20:19] EINAR**
Einar.
**[20:21] KETIL**
Where are you from? What did you do before?
**[20:24] EINAR**
I was a farmer in Northern England.
**[20:27] KETIL**
Oh?
**[20:37] KETIL**
What do you say, Einar?
**[20:39] KETIL**
Would you like to help out on my farm?
**[20:49] EINAR**
A farm...
**[21:14] KETIL**
Einar, over here.
**[21:20] KETIL**
All of my people are at work now.
**[21:22] KETIL**
I'll introduce you to them at dinner.
**[21:25] EINAR**
Yes, sir.
**[21:28] KETIL**
But first, take a look at my farm.
**[22:02] EINAR**
*Hey, Mom. Was that really true?*
**[22:09] EINAR**
*Live or die, I'll never be free again.*
**[22:16] EINAR**
*You still think I haven't lost?*
**[22:45] EINAR**
*My family was taken from me.*
**[22:47] EINAR**
*I lost my home. I lost everything.*
**[22:52] EINAR**
* I didn't even know*
* what the point of living was anymore.*
**[23:05] KETIL**
Thorfinn, it's me. Come here.
**[23:25] EINAR**
* "I'll be bought by a good master*
* and do my best to serve him."*
**[23:32] EINAR**
* "As long as I'm an obedient slave,*
* I won't starve."*
**[23:37] EINAR**
*I was beginning to think that way.*
**[23:41] EINAR**
Thorfinn...
**[23:54] EINAR**
*That was...*
**[23:58] EINAR**
*how Thorfinn and I met.*

**[01:53] KETIL**
Einar, Thorfinn... Starting today,
you two are friends.
**[02:02] KETIL**
Go on, say hello.
**[02:04] KETIL**
I'll be assigning the
two of you the same job.
**[02:07] KETIL**
You're to work together.
**[02:10] EINAR**
Nice to meet you, Thorfinn.
**[02:13] THORFINN**
Hello.
**[02:14] KETIL**
Good. Let me explain what you'll be doing.
**[02:19] KETIL**
Einar, what does this place look like to you?
**[02:22] EINAR**
What? Uh...
**[02:26] EINAR**
A forest?
**[02:28] KETIL**
Wrong.
**[02:32] KETIL**
This is a future wheat farm.
**[02:37] KETIL**
I own these woods.
**[02:40] KETIL**
I'm going to let the two of you borrow them.
**[02:43] EINAR**
Borrow?
**[02:44] KETIL**
Yes. I'll leave everything up to you.
**[02:48] KETIL**
You'll clear this land, work it,
and reap the harvest.
**[02:52] KETIL**
I'll buy it from you for a fair price.
**[02:55] KETIL**
Once that amount exceeds your price,
you'll buy yourselves back.
**[03:03] EINAR**
Buy ourselves?
**[03:04] EINAR**
In other words, we'll... we'll be free?
**[03:09] KETIL**
That's right. Earn your freedom
yourselves, the right way.
**[03:15] KETIL**
Depending on how hard you work, you may be
able to accomplish that within three years.
**[03:21] KETIL**
I'll wait to collect your lease payment
until after your first harvest.
**[03:26] KETIL**
What's the matter? Is there a problem?
**[03:31] EINAR**
N-No. Thank you. I'll do my best.
**[03:36] KETIL**
Good.
**[03:37] KETIL**
If you have any problems
or questions, ask Pater here.
**[03:42] KETIL**
He knows this farm well.
**[03:44] PATER**
Nice to meet you.
**[03:46] PATER**
I became a free man by the same means.
**[03:50] PATER**
I know it'll be tough working in an
unfamiliar land, but do your best.
**[03:53] EINAR**
I w-will!
**[03:56] KETIL**
For today, observe Thorfinn's work.
**[03:59] KETIL**
You must be exhausted from the long journey.
**[04:04] KETIL**
Thorfinn, be good to Einar. Got it?
**[04:09] THORFINN**
Yes, sir.
**[04:18] EINAR**
Hey, our master...
**[04:20] EINAR**
Huh?
**[04:23] EINAR**
Hey, wait up.
**[04:27] EINAR**
What kind of man is our master?
**[04:35] EINAR**
Is this normal in Denmark?
**[04:38] EINAR**
We had slaves back in my homeland,
but they were slaves for life.
**[04:48] EINAR**
I'm from Northern England. What about you?
**[04:55] THORFINN**
Iceland.
**[04:58] EINAR**
Iceland, huh?
**[05:02] EINAR**
Iceland...
**[05:04] EINAR**
Where's that?
**[05:07] EINAR**
Wow, you've already cut down a ton of trees.
**[05:12] EINAR**
How much is left?
**[05:16] THORFINN**
Everything on this side.
**[05:18] EINAR**
This side?
**[05:23] THORFINN**
See that river over there?
**[05:25] THORFINN**
Everything on this side of the river.
**[05:28] EINAR**
This side of the river?
**[05:35] EINAR**
You mean...
**[05:39] EINAR**
There's still a lot left to clear?
**[06:01] EINAR**
Huh? What?
**[06:03] EINAR**
Hup!
**[06:08] EINAR**
Huh?
**[06:12] EINAR**
What do you want?
**[06:14] THORFINN**
He told you to observe.
**[06:18] EINAR**
I want to free myself as soon as possible.
**[06:21] EINAR**
What's wrong with that?
**[06:24] THORFINN**
In that case, could you
work a little farther away?
**[06:28] THORFINN**
And cut them so they fall
perpendicular to the river.
**[06:32] EINAR**
I see. So we float them down the river, huh?
**[06:41] EINAR**
Ow...
**[06:44] EINAR**
Man, I'm hungry.
**[06:46] EINAR**
Hey, how does lunch work around here?
**[06:51] THORFINN**
We get lunch.
**[06:54] EINAR**
That's good. Do we go pick it up somewhere?
**[06:58] THORFINN**
No, the retainers should be bringing it soon.
**[07:01] EINAR**
Really? This place leaves
nothing to be desired.
**[07:07] MUSTACHE**
No way. Seriously?
**[07:08] CHUBBY**
Seriously.
**[07:09] EINAR**
Hey, lunch is here. Right, Thorfinn?
**[07:16] CHUBBY**
I'm telling you, seriously.
**[07:18] CHUBBY**
You're the only one who hasn't.
**[07:20] MUSTACHE**
Man, I had no idea.
**[07:22] MUSTACHE**
I guess I'll go see her tonight.
**[07:24] CHUBBY**
Yeah, you should.
**[07:26] CHUBBY**
Go and get rejected.
**[07:28] MUSTACHE**
That's not gonna happen.
**[07:31] CHUBBY**
Hey, that must be the newbie.
**[07:33] MUSTACHE**
Yeah, looks like it.
**[07:36] CHUBBY**
Look at that stupid face.
**[07:37] CHUBBY**
The face of a slave.
**[07:39] EINAR**
H-Hello, I...
**[07:41] CHUBBY**
Yeah, we know. We've heard.
**[07:44] EINAR**
Um...
**[07:48] EINAR**
What is this?
**[07:50] MIDDLE PART**
Your lunch.
**[07:55] CHUBBY**
Let's all go tonight.
**[07:58] EINAR**
Um, what is this?
**[08:01] MIDDLE PART**
I said it's your lunch.
**[08:03] EINAR**
What?
**[08:05] EINAR**
Th-This is all?
**[08:08] MIDDLE PART**
What? You got a problem with that, huh?
**[08:11] EINAR**
Not a problem, exactly...
**[08:15] EINAR**
This is for both of us?
**[08:19] MIDDLE PART**
You heard him.
**[08:21] MUSTACHE**
Good grief.
**[08:22] MIDDLE PART**
Is this your first time being a slave?
**[08:26] EINAR**
What? Well, yes.
**[08:29] MIDDLE PART**
Then remember this.
**[08:31] MIDDLE PART**
You're lucky you're getting fed at all.
**[08:33] MIDDLE PART**
Not only that, but us free men came
all the way here to bring you lunch.
**[08:38] MIDDLE PART**
You should start by thanking us.
**[08:43] EINAR**
*These jerks...*
**[08:45] MIDDLE PART**
Go on, say it.
**[08:47] MIDDLE PART**
Say, "Thank you."
**[08:54] MIDDLE PART**
Why are you looking at me like that, asshole?
**[09:00] THORFINN**
We'll take it. Thank you.
**[09:13] MIDDLE PART**
Thorfinn, you'd better
teach him some manners.
**[09:17] MIDDLE PART**
And don't injure the horse.
**[09:21] THORFINN**
Yes, sir.
**[09:32] EINAR**
Those assholes are napping.
**[09:35] EINAR**
They just came here to shirk their duties.
**[09:39] EINAR**
And you shouldn't be so obedient
just because you're a slave.
**[09:47] THORFINN**
Einar, push from the back.
**[09:50] THORFINN**
I'll pull from the front.
**[09:56] THORFINN**
Once we get it to the river,
we'll use it to build a raft.
**[09:59] EINAR**
Shouldn't we cut this tree a little shorter?
**[10:03] EINAR**
That old horse won't be able
to drag it by itself.
**[10:06] THORFINN**
The trees belong to our master.
**[10:08] THORFINN**
We can't cut them shorter
without his permission.
**[10:11] EINAR**
Hey, isn't this their job?
**[10:15] EINAR**
Normally you wouldn't let
a slave use a horse.
**[10:18] EINAR**
And this miserable horse alone
won't be enough.
**[10:21] THORFINN**
Don't worry about it. Let's go.
**[10:33] THORFINN**
Einar.
**[10:34] EINAR**
O-Okay!
**[10:45] THORFINN**
Einar, lift the front.
**[10:49] EINAR**
Got it.
**[11:00] THORFINN**
Let's go.
**[11:25] EINAR**
I'm so hungry, I feel sick.
**[11:29] EINAR**
They won't get away with this.
**[11:33] EINAR**
They ate my lunch.
**[11:37] EINAR**
Retainers don't have their own farms,
so they have to serve a master, right?
**[11:44] THORFINN**
Yeah.
**[11:47] EINAR**
Then they're halfway
to being slaves themselves.
**[11:52] EINAR**
They're just making sure there's
someone beneath them by bullying us.
**[12:00] EINAR**
Don't you agree, Thorfinn?
**[12:05] THORFINN**
I don't know. It doesn't matter.
**[12:12] EINAR**
It *does* matter.
**[12:14] EINAR**
We're our master's property.
**[12:17] EINAR**
His retainers can't push us around.
**[12:21] EINAR**
I'm going to tell our master about this.
**[12:23] THORFINN**
Don't. They'll just harass us more.
**[12:30] EINAR**
And you're *okay* with that?
**[12:38] KETIL**
Einar, Thorfinn...
**[12:41] EINAR**
Master.
**[12:44] KETIL**
Well, Einar? How was your first day?
**[12:49] EINAR**
Actually, I have something to report.
**[12:51] THORFINN**
Don't.
**[12:51] EINAR**
Shut up.
**[12:53] EINAR**
I have something to report.
**[12:56] EINAR**
Today, those retainers of yours...
**[13:17] KETIL**
What is it, Einar?
What do you have to report?
**[13:22] KETIL**
What a strange fellow.
**[13:24] KETIL**
If you've got nothing to say,
then I'm leaving.
**[13:49] THORFINN**
Einar.
**[13:50] EINAR**
Huh?
**[13:52] THORFINN**
Weren't you going to report them?
**[14:00] EINAR**
Shut up.
**[14:24] WOMAN**
Hup.
**[14:30] KETIL**
It's hot today.
**[14:32] GIRL**
We've got water.
**[14:35] GIRL**
We just got it from the spring.
**[14:38] GIRL**
It's cold.
**[14:39] KETIL**
Bring me a cup.
**[14:42] BOY**
High-speed turn!
**[14:47] GIRL**
Here you go.
**[14:49] PATER**
Thank you.
**[14:50] BOY**
We went to the deep spring.
**[14:55] KETIL**
I feel rejuvenated. Thank you.
**[14:58] BOY**
You're welcome.
**[15:01] KETIL**
Come on, everyone.
**[15:03] KETIL**
We're almost done.
**[15:05] KETIL**
Let's finish this patch by noon.
**[15:07] ALL**
Yes, sir.
**[15:11] EINAR**
The master's pitching in, too, huh?
**[15:13] EINAR**
I thought rich people didn't work.
**[15:20] EINAR**
Danish or English, we all look
the same when we're working.
**[15:31] KETIL**
Hey, not like that.
**[15:33] KETIL**
Don't make me say it again, Olmar.
**[15:35] OLMAR**
What? I'm just doing what you told me to do.
**[15:39] KETIL**
Use a hand sickle.
**[15:41] KETIL**
And cut it to below the knee.
**[15:45] KETIL**
I showed you how to do this.
**[15:47] OLMAR**
Who cares as long as it gets cut?
**[15:50] KETIL**
What?
**[15:50] KETIL**
You fool. After the harvest
comes the grazing.
**[15:53] KETIL**
We leave long stumps so
the livestock can eat them.
**[15:58] KETIL**
You're 17, and you *still* haven't
learned the order of things.
**[16:03] KETIL**
That's why you don't understand
the purpose of each individual task.
**[16:08] OLMAR**
Shut up. I know.
**[16:10] OLMAR**
I've got the order down pat.
**[16:14] KETIL**
Get this into that thick skull.
**[16:16] KETIL**
If you're going to lead others, then—
**[16:19] OLMAR**
Yeah, yeah. Below the knee, right?
**[16:21] OLMAR**
I got it.
**[16:24] KETIL**
Whoa!
**[16:25] KETIL**
You fool! Don't swing your scythe like that.
**[16:27] KETIL**
You'll crush the ears of the wheat.
**[16:30] OLMAR**
You said cut below the knee.
**[16:31] EINAR**
What's going on over there?
He's getting an earful.
**[16:31] OLMAR**
I'm doing that.
**[16:32] KETIL**
Do it properly.
**[16:34] THORFINN**
That's the master's son, Olmar.
**[16:35] KETIL**
Right there. Just like that.
**[16:36] EINAR**
Father and son, huh?
**[16:38] OLMAR**
Shut up.
**[16:40] OLMAR**
Ah, I can't take this!
**[16:42] OLMAR**
I thought I'd help out for once, and you
won't stop complaining about stupid shit.
**[16:47] OLMAR**
I'm out. I thought I'd help, but forget it.
**[16:51] KETIL**
Hey, where are you going, Olmar?
**[16:54] OLMAR**
Somewhere you ain't, shithead.
**[16:57] KETIL**
You'll be taking over this farm before long.
**[17:00] KETIL**
You need to accept that.
**[17:02] OLMAR**
When did I say I wanted
to take over this place?
**[17:06] OLMAR**
A grown man shouldn't be doing
this dull, boring, *tedious* farm work!
**[17:14] OLMAR**
I'm gonna use this to...
**[17:20] OLMAR**
Huh?
**[17:24] GIRL**
What's he doing?
**[17:27] OLMAR**
What?
**[17:27] EINAR**
I'm not sure.
**[17:38] OLMAR**
I'm gonna make a name for myself
with a sword, damn it!
**[17:40] KETIL**
Olmar! Wait, boy!
**[17:48] OLMAR**
I'm going to England soon.
I'll make sure of it.
**[17:55] OLMAR**
I'm not spending my whole life here
in the middle of nowhere.
**[17:59] OLMAR**
I'm gonna join Prince Canute's army
and achieve greatness.
**[18:21] DAUGHTER**
Um... Sir, when is soon?
**[18:27] OLMAR**
Soon means soon.
**[18:29] OLMAR**
King Harald should be calling
for reinforcements soon.
**[18:34] DAUGHTER**
I think you should take over the farm.
**[18:38] OLMAR**
What? You, too?
**[18:41] OLMAR**
What do *you* know?
**[18:42] DAUGHTER**
That's not what I meant.
**[18:44] DAUGHTER**
I'm just worried about you.
**[18:49] OLMAR**
Huh? Oh...
**[18:55] DAUGHTER**
Hey...
**[18:57] DAUGHTER**
Come here. Let's go again.
**[19:02] FATHER**
*Good, daughter of mine. That's it.*
**[19:06] MOTHER**
How are things going?
**[19:08] MOTHER**
I brought food for the young master.
**[19:10] MOTHER**
What?
**[19:12] FATHER**
N-Not now. They're getting round two started.
**[19:16] MOTHER**
Oh, my!
**[19:18] MOTHER**
Oh, my.
**[19:23] FATHER**
With this, our family's future
will be secure.
**[19:26] MOTHER**
Exactly. As long as the young master
keeps coming here...
**[19:41] FATHER**
Wh-Wh-Wh-What's the matter, sir?
**[19:43] MOTHER**
Did our daughter commit some kind of blunder?
**[19:46] OLMAR**
Shut up, idiots!
**[19:48] OLMAR**
I know what you're up to,
you penniless tenant farmers.
**[19:53] OLMAR**
You're after my dad's fortune.
**[19:56] OLMAR**
You think you'll get to live a life of
luxury if you join Ketil's family?
**[19:59] FATHER**
W-We'd never dream of that.
**[20:04] OLMAR**
Women are rotten, every last one of them!
**[20:06] FATHER**
Sir, that wasn't our intention!
**[20:10] FATHER**
Sir, wait!
**[20:13] OLMAR**
Damn it. What's wrong with everyone?
**[20:16] OLMAR**
I'm my own person, not my father's tagalong.
**[20:19] OLMAR**
Damn it! I feel like shit!
**[20:24] FOX**
Hey, it's the young master.
**[20:26] BADGER**
Huh? The young master?
**[20:29] FOX**
Hello, sir!
**[20:31] BADGER**
Hey!
**[20:35] FOX**
What are you doing?
**[20:38] FOX**
It's dangerous to race around at night.
**[20:40] BADGER**
So dangerous.
**[20:42] OLMAR**
What are you guys doing?
**[20:44] FOX**
We're coming over to you.
**[20:49] FOX**
Come on. Walk straight.
**[20:53] FOX**
We went to see a woman,
but the retainers beat us to her.
**[20:59] OLMAR**
Hey, the wheat...
**[20:59] FOX**
So we're drowning our sorrows.
**[21:02] FOX**
But if we start a fight with them,
we'll get in trouble with our boss again.
**[21:08] FOX**
Screw that, right?
**[21:10] BADGER**
Screw that.
**[21:13] FOX**
You're lucky. You can do
whatever you want on this farm.
**[21:19] OLMAR**
Shut up. You guys don't know how I feel.
**[21:23] FOX**
What? Are you mad?
**[21:26] FOX**
You got something on your mind?
**[21:27] BADGER**
Don't be mad.
**[21:30] OLMAR**
I don't have time for you idiots.
**[21:34] OLMAR**
Go back to your fort and go to sleep.
**[21:36] FOX**
Now, now, now, now, now, now...
Don't be so irritable.
**[21:41] FOX**
You're young.
**[21:42] BADGER**
But you're so cold.
**[21:43] OLMAR**
H-Hey, don't try to lead my horse.
**[21:46] FOX**
Don't worry about it.
Let's drink another round, okay?
**[21:50] FOX**
Let's stay up all night chatting, young master.
**[21:53] FOX**
Tell us all about your youthful troubles.
**[21:56] OLMAR**
You're hoping I'll entertain you
while you drink, aren't you?
**[21:59] OLMAR**
Screw this. I'm going home. Let go.
**[22:16] EINAR**
He should just take over the farm.
**[22:19] EINAR**
He doesn't know war.
**[22:22] EINAR**
He probably thinks warriors are cool.
**[22:28] EINAR**
Everyone who goes to war is a beast.
**[22:35] THORFINN**
Go to sleep. We have an early morning.
**[22:39] EINAR**
Soldiers came to my village twice.
**[22:51] EINAR**
First came the King of England's soldiers.
They burned down every single house.
**[22:57] EINAR**
My dad fought against them, but he was killed.
**[23:03] EINAR**
All I could do was watch.
**[23:13] EINAR**
After them came the Danes.
**[23:22] EINAR**
They claimed they were saving us
from the tyranny of the King of England,
**[23:26] EINAR**
but they pillaged everything they could.
**[23:36] EINAR**
They're beasts wearing human skin.
**[23:48] EINAR**
Hey, Thorfinn. Are you asleep?

What's wrong with you? Hit him back.
**[01:04] GUEST E**
All right! Right there.
**[01:05] GUEST F**
Seriously? Again?
**[01:14] MOB I**
Those morons.
**[01:15] MOB A**
They fell.
**[01:17] BG CHARACTER**
Does that make it a tie?
**[01:21] OLMAR**
Nobody knows what they're talking about.
**[01:26] OLMAR**
They don't get it.
**[01:29] OLMAR**
They don't even know what they don't know.
**[01:33] OLMAR**
There's no way they can understand me
when they don't know what they don't know.
**[01:40] FOX**
Actually, I understand, young master.
**[01:43] FOX**
After all, 17 is a weird age.
**[01:46] FOX**
Not quite an adult, but no longer a kid.
**[01:51] OLMAR**
More.
**[01:52] FOX**
Sure thing.
**[01:54] FOX**
Here you go. Whoops.
**[02:00] FOX**
Look at you drink!
**[02:04] OLMAR**
Fox, Badger... You're actually laughing
at me on the inside, aren't you?
**[02:11] BADGER**
He's not a fun drunk today.
**[02:14] FOX**
I'm starting to sober up.
**[02:16] FOX**
We shouldn't have invited him.
**[02:18] OLMAR**
I can hear you!
**[02:21] OLMAR**
You think bodyguards like you
have the right to mock me?
**[02:27] OLMAR**
You serve my dad for a pittance.
**[02:29] OLMAR**
Don't you have any pride as warriors?
**[02:32] FOX**
Please, call us guests.
**[02:35] FOX**
Even men like us are useful in a fight.
**[02:39] OLMAR**
Oh?
**[02:41] OLMAR**
You guys actually work sometimes?
**[02:43] OLMAR**
I've never seen you do your job, Fox.
**[02:45] FOX**
This village is so peaceful,
we're bored out of our minds.
**[02:50] OLMAR**
Draw your sword.
**[02:52] OLMAR**
I'll test your skills to make sure
you haven't lost your touch.
**[03:09] FOX**
See?
**[03:11] FOX**
We're your father's guests,
and this is what he pays us to do.
**[03:20] OLMAR**
Damn it! Just kill me!
**[03:25] BADGER**
What should we do, Fox?
**[03:29] FOX**
That's odd.
**[03:31] FOX**
We were supposed to have fun drinking
together so Ketil's family would like us.
**[03:36] OLMAR**
I'm a nobody!
**[03:45] FOX**
In other words, young master,
**[03:48] FOX**
you don't like being treated
like a child by respectable folk.
**[03:54] OLMAR**
You guys treat me like one, too.
**[03:57] FOX**
What do you expect?
**[04:00] FOX**
You really are half a man.
**[04:02] FOX**
But for you to become a real man—
**[04:05] BADGER**
Hey, you should be cheering him up.
**[04:08] FOX**
Quiet, you. I'm going somewhere with this.
**[04:10] FOX**
Just shut up and listen.
**[04:13] FOX**
You know, young master...
**[04:16] FOX**
Becoming a real man
isn't actually that difficult.
**[04:22] FOX**
All you gotta do is complete a...
rite of passage, I think it's called.
**[04:34] FOX**
You need to kill a person.
**[04:40] FOX**
Killing a person will make
you feel really confident.
**[04:47] FOX**
You oughta try it.
**[04:52] FOX**
Once you know how fragile human bodies are,
you won't be afraid of others anymore.
**[04:59] FOX**
It'll grow you right up.
**[05:02] FOX**
It's how all boys become men.
**[05:09] OLMAR**
B-But... who?
**[05:13] FOX**
Well, that's obvious.
**[05:16] FOX**
I know of the perfect target for a beginner.
**[05:25] FOX**
You've even got some right here on this farm.
**[05:37] FOX**
People you're *allowed* to kill.
**[07:28] EINAR**
Boy, I slept well.
**[07:31] EINAR**
I'm hungry.
**[07:33] EINAR**
One, two, three, four.
**[07:38] EINAR**
There's still a lot more wheat
to harvest today.
**[07:43] EINAR**
This farm is way too big.
**[07:52] EINAR**
At this rate, we'll have hardly any time
to clear the woods for next spring.
**[07:57] EINAR**
I'd like to get it done in time
for the fall planting season.
**[08:02] EINAR**
But first, we've gotta dig up the roots
and rocks, till the soil, and let it rest.
**[08:08] EINAR**
I wonder if they'll let us
borrow a heavy plow.
**[08:20] EINAR**
Th-Thorfinn, what's wrong?
**[08:24] EINAR**
Are you still asleep? Hey, Thorfinn.
**[08:34] EINAR**
Are you okay?
**[08:36] EINAR**
You were screaming like crazy.
**[08:46] EINAR**
What kind of dream
makes a man scream like that?
**[08:52] THORFINN**
I was dreaming?
**[08:54] THORFINN**
I wonder what it was. I can't remember.
**[09:05] EINAR**
Go wash your face and let's get
started on our morning tasks.
**[09:12] EINAR**
Dreams you forget are better left forgotten.
**[09:36] ARNHEID**
Good morning. It's a nice morning, isn't it?
**[09:39] EINAR**
Uh, yes. Good morning.
**[09:42] ARNHEID**
Would you like to wash your faces?
**[09:44] ARNHEID**
Go ahead. I'm already finished.
**[09:46] EINAR**
Oh, no. I mean, yes.
**[09:48] EINAR**
Uh, sorry. Take your time.
**[09:50] EINAR**
Washing this face won't make it any better.
**[09:55] ARNHEID**
Oh, I wouldn't say that.
**[09:58] ARNHEID**
I think you have a wonderful face.
**[10:05] ARNHEID**
Are you all right? Are you not feeling well?
**[10:08] EINAR**
It's my heart...
**[10:10] ARNHEID**
That's terrible. Does it hurt?
**[10:12] EINAR**
No, I'm fine. I'm not sick or anything.
**[10:16] ARNHEID**
Then are you injured?
**[10:17] THORFINN**
*What is this? I feel so uneasy.*
**[10:23] THORFINN**
* I must have been dreaming*
* about something I mustn't forget.*
**[10:34] ARNHEID**
My name is Arnheid.
**[10:36] ARNHEID**
You came here recently, didn't you?
**[10:38] EINAR**
Y-Yes. I'm Einar.
**[10:40] EINAR**
I'm from England.
**[10:43] ARNHEID**
England? You speak the language so well,
I thought you were Norse.
**[10:49] EINAR**
Everyone in my village, including me,
is descended from Nords.
**[10:55] EINAR**
We all speak English and Norse.
**[10:59] EINAR**
Though I'm sure it's hard for a lady like you
to understand me, since my accent is so thick.
**[11:05] ARNHEID**
Oh, that's right. Excuse me.
**[11:08] ARNHEID**
I hadn't mentioned
my status here on the farm.
**[11:17] EINAR**
What? Aren't you the master's daughter?
**[11:21] ARNHEID**
No, I'm not.
**[11:26] ARNHEID**
Like you, I'm a slave.
**[11:30] ARNHEID**
I'm the master's personal attendant.
**[11:33] EINAR**
What?
**[11:40] FOX**
Good morning, gentlemen.
**[11:42] FOX**
Have you slaves gotten together
this morning to plot your escape?
**[11:47] ARNHEID**
Good morning.
**[11:50] FOX**
You, what's your name?
**[11:52] THORFINN**
Thorfinn.
**[11:54] BADGER**
Are you a slave, too? I don't recognize you.
**[11:57] EINAR**
I'm E-Einar. I arrived this summer.
**[12:05] FOX**
Thorfinn and Einar, come with me.
**[12:23] EINAR**
We're having a busy morning.
**[12:28] EINAR**
Who are those guys?
**[12:31] EINAR**
They've got swords.
**[12:34] EINAR**
They aren't respectable folk, are they?
**[12:39] THORFINN**
They're "guests."
**[12:41] THORFINN**
They're the resident
defensive force at the farm.
**[12:45] THORFINN**
Basically bodyguards.
**[12:49] EINAR**
Whatever business they've
got with us can't be good.
**[12:58] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
I think you have a wonderful face.
**[13:04] FOX**
What is it? You're in a good mood, Einar.
**[13:07] EINAR**
Oh, sorry.
**[13:09] FOX**
No problem at all.
**[13:11] FOX**
You seem like a lively one.
**[13:41] FOX**
Go on, young master.
**[13:42] FOX**
Make a nice clean cut.
**[13:47] EINAR**
A clean cut? You mean...
**[13:50] FOX**
Very perceptive of you, big man.
**[13:54] EINAR**
What?
**[13:56] FOX**
This ritual will allow the young master
to become a man.
**[14:00] FOX**
Die for us.
**[14:11] FOX**
This ritual will allow the young master
to become a man.
**[14:15] FOX**
Die for us.
**[14:22] EINAR**
Y-You can't be serious!
**[14:24] EINAR**
What have we done to deserve this?
**[14:28] FOX**
You've done nothing wrong!
**[14:30] FOX**
But your lives aren't your own.
That's all there is to it.
**[14:35] FOX**
Your rightful owner is free to do
whatever he pleases with his possessions.
**[14:40] FOX**
You're a slave that belongs to Olmar's family.
**[14:44] FOX**
He's going to cut you down himself.
You should be honored.
**[14:48] GUEST**
Lucky you.
**[14:51] GUEST**
Just give up already.
**[14:55] OLMAR**
Th-These guys belong to my dad.
**[15:00] OLMAR**
They're not mine.
**[15:02] OLMAR**
If I cut them down,
I'll have to pay him back for them.
**[15:06] FOX**
Pathetic, young master.
**[15:08] FOX**
You've made it this far,
and you're still making excuses?
**[15:11] FOX**
Are you afraid of your father?
**[15:14] FOX**
Are you afraid to kill?
**[15:16] FOX**
Or are you afraid of both?
**[15:17] OLMAR**
Shut up! I'm not scared of anything.
**[15:21] FOX**
Then do it. Make a nice clean cut.
**[15:26] EINAR**
Thorfinn, run.
**[15:30] FOX**
It'll be fine.
**[15:35] EINAR**
Damn you...
**[15:38] EINAR**
What are you doing? Go, Thorfinn!
**[15:40] EINAR**
Tell the master!
**[15:42] FOX**
You can do it, sir!
**[15:44] FOX**
Your opponent is raring to go!
**[15:49] GUEST 1**
Don't move, shorty.
**[15:51] GUEST 2**
Shut up and watch.
**[16:08] THORFINN**
What a pain.
**[16:13] THORFINN**
He can cut me down.
**[16:16] FOX**
You've got this, sir.
**[16:20] THORFINN**
You only need one of us, don't you?
**[16:23] THORFINN**
Let him return to work.
**[16:26] THORFINN**
He can cut me down.
**[17:06] SNAKE**
Ow...
**[17:12] SNAKE**
Oh, it's morning.
**[17:19] SNAKE**
Hey, Gramps.
**[17:22] SNAKE**
Gramps, are you there?
**[17:40] SNAKE**
Gramps, where's my breakfast?
**[17:44] SNAKE**
Gramps!
**[17:46] SVERKEL**
You're asking about breakfast
after waking up at this hour?
**[17:50] SVERKEL**
If you want to eat, help me with the
harvest every once in a while.
**[17:54] SNAKE**
No way.
**[17:56] SVERKEL**
Then I'm not cooking for you.
**[17:59] SVERKEL**
Figure something out yourself.
**[18:03] SNAKE**
That old fart.
**[18:04] SNAKE**
I'm not cooking for myself.
What a pain in the butt.
**[18:07] SNAKE**
I guess I'll head home.
**[18:26] THORFINN**
I'll allow Master Olmar to cut me down.
**[18:29] THORFINN**
Please let Einar return to work.
**[18:33] THORFINN**
We have another busy day.
**[18:38] EINAR**
Wh-What did you just say?
**[18:52] FOX**
Sorry, what's your name again?
**[18:57] THORFINN**
It's Thorfinn.
**[18:59] FOX**
All right, Thorfinn.
**[19:01] FOX**
Do you understand what you just said?
**[19:05] FOX**
Being cut down means dying.
**[19:09] THORFINN**
Yes, it certainly does.
**[19:13] EINAR**
You idiot! What are you—
**[19:18] BADGER**
Keep your mouth shut. Stay out of this.
**[19:22] FOX**
Did you hear that, boys?
**[19:25] FOX**
You run into guys like him
every once in a while.
**[19:30] FOX**
I can't overlook what you just said.
**[19:35] FOX**
Letting a remark like that slide
reduces the value of our product.
**[19:42] FOX**
Hey, Thorfinn. Do you know
what product we warriors sell?
**[19:51] THORFINN**
No.
**[19:55] FOX**
It's death.
**[20:04] FOX**
Everyone is afraid to die.
**[20:07] FOX**
I can tell you for certain
that everyone fears it.
**[20:11] FOX**
Look at the young master.
**[20:13] FOX**
He's even afraid of someone else dying.
**[20:15] OLMAR**
Shut up. I'm not s-scared.
**[20:18] FOX**
You should be.
Death has value *because* we fear it.
**[20:23] FOX**
Otherwise we wouldn't be able
to use our swords to make a living.
**[20:37] FOX**
You should be scared, too.
**[20:40] FOX**
Go on. Be afraid.
**[20:47] SNAKE**
Aw, man. I'm hungry.
**[20:50] SNAKE**
Hey, you punks.
**[20:55] EINAR**
Stop!
**[21:00] SNAKE**
Those idiots. They're up to no good again.
**[21:05] EINAR**
Stop!
**[21:07] EINAR**
Damn it! You monsters!
**[21:12] FOX**
Come on.
**[21:14] FOX**
Beg for your life.
**[21:16] FOX**
Don't hide your true feelings, Thorfinn.
**[21:26] OLMAR**
Ouch.
**[21:27] FOX**
If you don't hurry up, your tiny
little body will end up even smaller.
**[21:42] SNAKE**
Huh, he didn't even blink. Impressive.
**[21:49] SNAKE**
Isn't that one of the master's slaves?
**[21:58] THORFINN**
Why do we have to fear death?
**[22:08] THORFINN**
Do we live because we don't want to die?
**[22:14] THORFINN**
Does anything good come from being alive?
**[22:25] THORFINN**
Not for me.
**[22:32] THORFINN**
Not a single good thing has
happened to me in my entire life.
**[22:59] FOX**
Your eye is next.
**[23:04] FOX**
Show me that you're afraid.
**[23:06] SNAKE**
Don't, Fox!
**[23:14] OLMAR**
S-Snake...
**[23:25] SNAKE**
Aw, man. He's in rough shape.
**[23:32] FOX**
B-Boss, welcome back.
Wh-Wh-When did you get here?
**[23:38] SNAKE**
Fox.
**[23:38] FOX**
Yes, sir.
**[23:41] SNAKE**
Come closer.
**[23:42] FOX**
Y-Yes, sir.
**[24:00] SNAKE**
Badger.
**[24:01] BADGER**
Yes, sir!
**[24:07] SNAKE**
Explain.

Yeah, b-but he...
**[01:52] BADGER**
H-He... got cheeky with us, so...
**[02:14] SNAKE**
Sorry. These guys are idiots.
**[02:20] SNAKE**
I'm Snake.
**[02:24] THORFINN**
I'm Thorfinn.
**[03:13] SNAKE**
See that, Thorfinn?
**[03:16] SNAKE**
Your body says it wants to live.
**[03:28] SNAKE**
I'm going to sleep.
**[03:29] SNAKE**
You guys had better
graciously see them back home.
**[03:36] SNAKE**
I know I don't have to tell you...
**[03:39] SNAKE**
that the day you cause
any more trouble over this matter,
**[03:44] SNAKE**
you won't be able to chew
your own food anymore.
**[03:53] SNAKE**
I didn't hear a "Yes, sir."
**[03:54] ALL**
Yes, sir!
**[04:01] EINAR**
Thorfinn, you...
**[04:07] THORFINN**
Do I want to live?
**[04:16] THORFINN**
Live...
**[04:22] THORFINN**
Live, and do what?
**[06:15] PATER**
I see.
**[06:17] PATER**
Besides your ear,
none of your injuries are very deep.
**[06:22] PATER**
Once they're healed, you'll be good as new.
**[06:28] PATER**
I'm sorry you two had to go through that.
**[06:31] PATER**
The master doesn't know what to do
about his guests' misbehavior either.
**[06:38] EINAR**
"Misbehavior?"
**[06:40] EINAR**
Their "misbehavior" nearly got us killed.
**[06:43] PATER**
It's not as though they'd actually kill you.
**[06:48] EINAR**
You're wrong.
**[06:51] EINAR**
If their boss Snake hadn't shown up,
they really would've killed us.
**[06:57] EINAR**
Guys like them think our lives are
worth less than those of insects.
**[07:06] THORFINN**
Either way, we couldn't help it.
**[07:10] THORFINN**
The strong kill the weak.
**[07:14] THORFINN**
It's only natural.
**[07:18] EINAR**
What did you just say?
**[07:21] PATER**
Now, now, Einar.
**[07:24] PATER**
If they try to mess with you again,
come talk to me instead of going with them.
**[07:31] PATER**
More importantly,
we can't allow your wounds to fester.
**[07:34] PATER**
I'll put some medicine on them.
**[07:36] EINAR**
Medicine?
**[07:38] EINAR**
U-Uh, Pater, we don't...
**[07:41] PATER**
Don't worry about paying me for the medicine.
**[07:44] PATER**
It's my responsibility to look after you two.
**[07:49] PATER**
I'm sorry I struck a nerve.
**[07:55] EINAR**
No, it's fine. Thank you.
**[08:01] PATER**
You'd better thank Arnheid, too.
**[08:06] PATER**
She ran all around the farm
to tell me what happened.
**[08:18] PATER**
Rest for today.
**[08:21] PATER**
I'll talk to the master about it.
**[08:24] PATER**
Also...
**[08:25] PATER**
It's one of my old shirts,
so it's probably a bit large for you,
**[08:29] PATER**
but Thorfinn, you can have this.
**[08:31] PATER**
After all, yours is full of holes
after what they did.
**[08:42] EINAR**
Don't you have anything to say to Pater?
**[08:52] EINAR**
Listen, you. You're supposed to say
"thank you" in these situations.
**[08:57] EINAR**
Go on.
**[09:04] EINAR**
Say it.
**[09:06] EINAR**
Why haven't you been saying anything, anyway?
**[09:09] EINAR**
It's not nice,
when everyone's being kind to you.
**[09:14] PATER**
It's fine. I know Thorfinn doesn't say much.
**[09:25] EINAR**
Thank you.
**[09:46] EINAR**
Hey, where are you going?
**[09:50] EINAR**
He said we don't have to
harvest wheat today.
**[09:55] THORFINN**
I'm going to the woods.
**[09:56] THORFINN**
These injuries are nothing.
**[10:05] EINAR**
Wait up. I'll go with you.
**[10:43] EINAR**
*The way he moved when Snake attacked him...*
**[10:49] EINAR**
*He's no ordinary man.*
**[10:53] EINAR**
*And...*
**[10:59] (Flashback) THORFINN**
The strong kill the weak.
**[11:03] (Flashback) THORFINN**
It's only natural.
**[11:14] EINAR**
Thorfinn.
**[11:19] EINAR**
Have you ever been to war?
**[11:28] THORFINN**
Yes.
**[11:35] EINAR**
Have you killed people?
**[11:41] THORFINN**
Yes.
**[11:51] EINAR**
How many?
**[11:54] EINAR**
Five men? Ten?
**[12:04] THORFINN**
Why do you want to know?
**[12:08] THORFINN**
I thought you didn't like war.
**[12:14] THORFINN**
Timber.
**[12:37] THORFINN**
I don't remember how many.
**[12:43] THORFINN**
I've killed a lot of people.
**[12:48] THORFINN**
I was on the battlefield since
around the time I was five or six.
**[12:53] THORFINN**
I joined the Danish army's
invasion of England.
**[13:04] THORFINN**
I was a warrior.
**[13:10] THORFINN**
Do you hate me now, Einar?
**[14:02] (Flashback) THORFINN**
I was a warrior.
**[14:06] (Flashback) THORFINN**
Do you hate me now, Einar?
**[14:52] (Flashback) THORFINN**
I don't remember how many.
**[15:09] (Flashback) THORFINN**
I've killed a lot of people.
**[16:30] (Flashback) ENGLISH GHOST A**
Found you.
**[16:35] (Flashback) ENGLISH GHOST A**
Damn kid. Die!
**[16:51] (Flashback) ENGLISH GHOST B**
You brat.
**[16:55] (Flashback) ENGLISH GHOSTS**
Kill. Kill him. Die!
**[17:28] EINAR**
Damn it!
**[19:02] THORFINN**
Einar...
**[19:09] THORFINN**
Why do you wake me
every time I cry out in my sleep?
**[19:27] THORFINN**
I've killed people. I've killed a lot of people.
**[19:34] THORFINN**
From battle to battle, I've attacked
villages and killed a lot of people.
**[19:43] THORFINN**
I'm no different from the people
**[19:51] THORFINN**
who killed your family.
**[20:12] EINAR**
Do you...
**[20:15] (Flashback) THORFINN**
Does anything good come from being alive?
**[20:22] (Flashback) THORFINN**
Not for me.
**[20:27] (Flashback) THORFINN**
Not a single good thing has
happened to me in my entire life.
**[20:45] EINAR**
Do you want to die?
**[20:50] EINAR**
I don't know what kind of
terrible fate you've suffered.
**[20:55] EINAR**
I don't want to know what kind of hell
you've lived through, either.
**[21:00] EINAR**
But we're able to chit-chat,
eat, shit, and sleep in this hell...
**[21:16] EINAR**
because someone kept us alive.
**[21:23] EINAR**
How can you say nothing good's
ever happened to you?
**[21:32] EINAR**
You're wrong.
**[21:36] EINAR**
You're wrong!
**[21:42] EINAR**
Asshole.
**[21:45] EINAR**
Don't act so spoiled.
**[22:13] EINAR**
Besides...
**[22:17] EINAR**
It's not like you killed my family.
**[22:26] EINAR**
Don't be so arrogant.
**[22:41] THORFINN**
Thank you, Einar.
**[22:48] THORFINN**
Thank you for waking me.
**[23:00] EINAR**
Jeez...
**[23:02] EINAR**
I can't get enough sleep because
you won't stop talking in yours.
**[23:09] THORFINN**
I see.
**[23:16] THORFINN**
I'm sorry, Einar.
**[23:18] EINAR**
Just go to sleep already.

**[06:26] GUNNAR**
The situation here is even worse
than we were told, Your Highness.
**[06:33] GUNNAR**
It will take a long time for Mercia,
**[06:37] GUNNAR**
once called the Jewel of the Fields,
to recover from this.
**[06:43] CANUTE**
Gunnar, don't speak as though
we had nothing to do with this.
**[06:47] CANUTE**
We laid waste to this region.
**[06:51] CANUTE**
What is that?
**[06:53] GUNNAR**
Huh?
**[06:55] GUNNAR**
Oh, right.
**[06:57] GUNNAR**
This is the advance force of our army,
which conquered this region.
**[07:02] CANUTE**
That's not what I meant.
**[07:04] CANUTE**
I'm asking what it is that they're doing.
**[07:07] GUNNAR**
Why, pillaging the land, of course.
**[07:10] GUNNAR**
They're looking for girls to
sell from among the beggars.
**[07:14] CANUTE**
I thought I forbade that.
**[07:16] CANUTE**
Have them beheaded and
display their heads on the road.
**[07:19] GUNNAR**
What?
**[07:21] GUNNAR**
B-But collecting the spoils
of war is a military custom.
**[07:26] GUNNAR**
Cracking down on it harshly would be...
**[07:28] CANUTE**
Men who can't maintain discipline
are no soldiers of mine.
**[07:32] CANUTE**
Behead them and display
their heads on the road.
**[07:35] GUNNAR**
Y-Yes, Your Highness.

Hey, you!

What? Seriously?
**[07:57] FLOKI**
I appreciate you coming all the
way here, Your Highness.
**[08:02] CANUTE**
Floki, have the arrangements been made?
**[08:05] FLOKI**
Yes, Your Highness, they await your command.
**[08:07] FLOKI**
They can move out immediately.
**[08:11] FLOKI**
But you need not have met them yourself.
**[08:15] FLOKI**
You could have allowed us to handle the matter.
**[08:17] CANUTE**
It's fine. I was already here
observing the military situation.
**[08:21] CANUTE**
I shall meet with them.
**[08:22] FLOKI**
Earl Eadric of Mercia is a coward.
**[08:25] FLOKI**
He is hardly a man worth meeting.
**[08:28] CANUTE**
A person's character and their
usefulness are two different things.
**[08:31] CANUTE**
Either way, I shall meet him
and judge for myself.
**[08:36] CANUTE**
And besides, there is
another reason for my visit.
**[08:42] FLOKI**
What do you mean?
**[08:45] THORKELL**
Hey!
**[08:48] THORKELL**
Canute!

I must appease *that.*

I imagine it was too great a
task for you and your men.
**[09:04] FLOKI**
Yes, indeed.
**[09:17] THORKELL**
You little brat!
**[09:20] THORKELL**
Let me hit him!
**[09:21] THORKELL**
Get outta my way and let me hit him once!
**[09:27] CANUTE**
Calm yourself, Thorkell.
**[09:29] THORKELL**
Why, you friggin' fraggin' little...
**[09:33] THORKELL**
I hate when someone stops my
battles more than I hate frogs!
**[09:41] SOLDIERS**
What?
**[09:41] SOLDIERS**
Frogs?
**[09:44] CANUTE**
Mercia has requested a truce.
**[09:47] CANUTE**
Our victory here is as good as certain.
**[09:51] CANUTE**
You did well, Thorkell.
**[09:53] THORKELL**
Shut up!
**[09:55] THORKELL**
Battles don't stop until you've
taken the opposing leader's head.
**[10:02] THORKELL**
I was about to lop off Eadric's head.
**[10:07] CANUTE**
Don't make such a fuss.
**[10:08] CANUTE**
Earl Eadric of Mercia is
merely the leader of this region.
**[10:12] CANUTE**
Look at the bigger picture.
**[10:15] THORKELL**
I don't care about that crap.
**[10:18] THORKELL**
I just want to enjoy a
fulfilling life of warfare.
**[10:22] FLOKI**
In the lands to the east, Ethelred's son,
Edmund, is making some disquieting moves.
**[10:28] FLOKI**
I ask that you help us pacify the east.
Your overwhelming strength in battle is—
**[10:33] THORKELL**
I'll decide where I go and
who I fight, Dicehead.
**[10:40] THORKELL**
Canute!
**[10:42] THORKELL**
You'd better not have forgotten
what I said to you then.
**[10:48] THORKELL**
"I'm going to watch what you do from now on,
and who you'll become."
**[10:57] THORKELL**
You're still a nobody.
**[11:00] THORKELL**
You aren't even the King of England.
**[11:03] THORKELL**
You're just a kid.
**[11:05] THORKELL**
So listen up, kid.
**[11:07] THORKELL**
No matter what you do,
you won't be able to avoid war.
**[11:12] THORKELL**
You have no choice but to carve
your path with blood and iron.
**[11:16] THORKELL**
Just like Askeladd did.
**[11:19] THORKELL**
Don't forget that.
**[11:21] THORKELL**
From the start, the path you walk
has been covered in blood.
**[11:27] THORKELL**
How long are you going to keep doing that?
**[11:29] THORKELL**
It's annoying! Get outta here!
**[11:32] THORKELL**
Boy, I'm pissed.
**[11:35] THORKELL**
I'll back down for today,
but there won't be a second time.
**[11:39] THORKELL**
And don't you forget it.
**[11:42] GUNNAR**
H-How dare he insult you like that
in front of the soldiers.
**[11:45] GUNNAR**
Your Highness,
you mustn't overlook this offense.
**[11:51] CANUTE**
Why not? It makes sense.
**[11:53] CANUTE**
He offered a valuable warning.
**[11:56] CANUTE**
He's an honest man.
**[11:57] THORKELL**
Move it!
**[11:59] THORKELL**
Clear the way.
**[11:59] CANUTE**
It would surely be a
pleasure to live like him.
**[12:05] CANUTE**
Let's go.
**[12:30] EADRIC**
4,000 pounds of silver.
**[12:32] EADRIC**
This is everything we were
able to gather at this time.
**[12:37] EADRIC**
Please accept this offering.
**[12:43] EADRIC**
If you'll withdraw your forces from Mercia,
**[12:48] EADRIC**
we'll provide you with an
additional 4,000 pounds.
**[12:50] EADRIC**
It's not a bad deal, Canute.
**[12:55] CANUTE**
You offer me Danegeld, Eadric?
**[13:03] EADRIC**
What is your answer, Canute?
**[13:22] CANUTE**
This is nothing.
**[13:37] SOLDIER B**
Okay, lift 'em.
**[13:51] MAN**
Hup.
**[14:28] CANUTE**
Let me ask you something.
**[14:31] CANUTE**
You're paying me this silver so
I'll leave Mercia, aren't you, Eadric?
**[14:39] EADRIC**
I-I'm offering you 8,000 pounds.
**[14:42] EADRIC**
That should be more than enough
for you to withdraw.
**[14:47] CANUTE**
It's not.
**[14:49] CANUTE**
Think carefully about what you're saying.
**[14:53] CANUTE**
You're telling Canute, Bretwalda of England,
**[14:57] CANUTE**
to take this money
and leave his own territory.
**[15:02] CANUTE**
And the price you set on such an
insult against a king is this paltry sum?
**[15:10] CANUTE**
I am your king.
**[15:13] CANUTE**
I came to this land to quell the rebellion
taking place within my domain,
**[15:18] CANUTE**
not for wealth.
**[15:24] EADRIC'S SON**
This is nonsense!
**[15:25] EADRIC'S SON**
Our king is Ethelred of the
honorable House of Wessex, not you.
**[15:31] EADRIC**
Silence.
**[15:32] EADRIC'S SON**
But Father...
**[15:34] EADRIC**
Enough. This is neither the time nor place.
**[15:37] CANUTE**
You're right. There is another
who calls himself the King of England.
**[15:44] CANUTE**
So, did you offer me this deal
with Ethelred's permission?
**[15:51] EADRIC**
I-I'm sure His Highness would understand
if we explained the situation to him.
**[15:57] CANUTE**
Ah, how open-minded of him.
**[16:00] CANUTE**
So Ethelred would forgive one
of his own vassals for deserting
**[16:06] CANUTE**
in order to protect his own land.
**[16:09] GUNNAR**
Now, that's not nice.
**[16:13] FLOKI**
He's got a nasty streak.
**[16:17] CANUTE**
The world is in chaos
because there are two kings.
**[16:22] CANUTE**
One must die.
**[16:27] CANUTE**
Ethelred is a coward who
abandoned his people and throne
**[16:31] CANUTE**
to flee into exile during the previous war.
**[16:36] CANUTE**
Don't you think it's foolish to trust
the future of England to such a man?
**[16:44] EADRIC**
You're telling me to betray him?
**[16:52] CANUTE**
You've already betrayed him.
**[16:57] CANUTE**
I'd like you to assist me, Eadric.
**[17:05] CANUTE**
I'd like to make Ethelred go away.
**[17:12] CANUTE**
You've served him for
many years as his vassal.
**[17:16] CANUTE**
I'm sure you would know
of a good method.
**[17:20] EADRIC**
Do you intend to strip me of
every last shred of loyalty, boy?
**[17:27] CANUTE**
In exchange, I'll allow you to keep Mercia.
**[17:30] CANUTE**
Ethelred's head is my price.
**[17:33] CANUTE**
A good deal, don't you think?
**[17:36] EADRIC**
I refuse. A truce is off the table.
**[17:41] EADRIC**
I'll keep fighting a foul man
like you until the bitter end.
**[17:50] CANUTE**
Floki, this man doesn't seem to be a coward.
**[17:55] CANUTE**
He's got some backbone.
**[17:57] FLOKI**
In that case,
shall we test it, Your Highness?
**[18:06] CANUTE**
Come outside, Eadric.
**[18:09] CANUTE**
I have something to show you.
**[18:57] CANUTE**
Are you ready?
**[18:59] SOLDIER C**
Yes, Your Highness.
**[19:02] CANUTE**
Light it.
**[19:17] EADRIC**
Signal fires? What are they signaling?
**[19:24] EADRIC**
What is this?
**[19:30] EADRIC**
What are you doing, Canute?
**[19:48] EADRIC'S SON**
Father.
**[19:51] EADRIC'S SON**
L-Look...
**[20:06] SUBORDINATE B**
Th-There are more over there.
**[20:12] EADRIC**
C-Canute, what are they signaling?
**[20:21] CANUTE**
This is what it means
to go to war against me.
**[20:26] CANUTE**
Imagine it, Eadric.
**[20:30] CANUTE**
Mercia has been reduced to ash.
**[20:51] CANUTE**
Do you understand now?
**[20:53] CANUTE**
If I will it, reducing you to ash
would be no trouble at all.
**[21:06] EADRIC'S SON**
Father!
**[21:14] CANUTE**
Buy peace by offering me Ethelred's head.
**[21:19] CANUTE**
It's the smart choice.
**[21:47] NA**
* The next year, in April of 1016,*
* King Ethelred II of England would die.*
**[22:04] SUBORDINATE C**
Your Highness!
**[22:07] NArrator**
*It is said he died of an illness.*
**[22:18] NArrator**
* After Ethelred's death,*
* his son Edmund assumed the throne.*
**[22:24] NArrator**
*As his father's successor,*
**[22:27] NArrator**
* Edmund caused great trouble for*
* Canute's forces in a hard-fought war, but...*
**[22:36] NArrator**
* Seven months later in that same year,*
* he unsurprisingly also died of an illness.*
**[22:55] ASGEIR**
Died of an illness, huh?
**[22:57] ASGEIR**
It took King Sweyn ten years
to conquer the nation,
**[23:01] ASGEIR**
and this time, it ended in less than three.
**[23:05] ASGEIR**
The Witanagemot will recognize
Canute as Bretwalda.
**[23:11] ASGEIR**
The coronation will be held
first thing next year.
**[23:18] THORKELL**
Don't talk to me about Canute.
**[23:21] THORKELL**
You're ruining my beer.
**[23:27] ASGEIR**
Fine, fine.
**[23:43] NArrator**
*Sweyn, Ethelred, and Edmund...*
**[23:51] NArrator**
*Thanks to the unnatural deaths of his rivals,*
**[23:54] NArrator**
* in the year 1018, Canute officially*
* became King of England.*

**[02:27] EINAR**
Come on, you bastard!
**[02:34] THORFINN**
Einar! Einar, stop.
**[02:37] THORFINN**
Let's dig it out a little more
and cut the roots.
**[02:41] THORFINN**
We won't get it out like this.
**[02:48] EINAR**
Piece of shit!
**[02:50] THORFINN**
It still won't budge.
**[03:02] EINAR**
Come on!
**[03:13] EINAR**
We need a horse. We won't get
anywhere without a horse.
**[03:19] EINAR**
They lent us one to move the lumber,
so why don't we have one to prepare the soil?
**[03:25] EINAR**
It doesn't make sense.
**[03:27] THORFINN**
They didn't lend us a horse.
**[03:30] THORFINN**
The retainers just made us
do their job for them.
**[03:35] THORFINN**
What do you want to do, Einar?
**[03:36] THORFINN**
Should we save preparing the fields for
later and chop down more trees first?
**[03:42] EINAR**
No, I'll try talking to them again.
**[03:46] EINAR**
It might be a waste of time, though.
**[03:49] RETAINER A**
You guys don't know when to quit.
**[03:52] RETAINER A**
No means no.
**[03:54] EINAR**
But we have Pater's permission.
**[03:58] RETAINER A**
Pater?
**[04:01] RETAINER A**
You mean the former slave?
**[04:02] RETAINER A**
In any case, no.
**[04:04] RETAINER A**
We're using all the horses for other work.
**[04:07] RETAINER A**
We don't have any to spare for you.
**[04:12] MIDDLE PART**
Come on, slaves. You're wasting your time.
**[04:15] MIDDLE PART**
Quit slacking off and
head back to your woods.
**[04:18] THORFINN**
Hello.
**[04:20] MIDDLE PART**
What's this? I only heard one "hello."
**[04:24] MIDDLE PART**
I see the big lad is as rude as ever.
**[04:28] CHUBBY**
Hey, we're taking a horse.
**[04:31] RETAINER A**
Sure.
**[04:36] MIDDLE PART**
Now that I think about it,
you slaves are no different from livestock.
**[04:42] MIDDLE PART**
Just borrowing a plot of land and
running a farm is insolent enough.
**[04:50] MIDDLE PART**
Use your own bodies to do the work.
**[04:57] EINAR**
That jerk. Our only choice
is to talk to the master.
**[05:02] EINAR**
We need a horse.
**[05:04] EINAR**
Not just for removing stumps,
but for tilling the soil, too.
**[05:07] EINAR**
I'm not gonna let their bullying stop me.
**[05:11] THORFINN**
But even if the master's influence
allows us to borrow a horse,
**[05:16] THORFINN**
we'd just be upsetting the retainers.
**[05:18] THORFINN**
They'll hate us even more.
**[05:21] EINAR**
What are we gonna do, then?
Do all the work ourselves?
**[05:25] EINAR**
Who knows how many years it'll
take for us to finally start farming?
**[05:29] THORFINN**
The woods are vast.
**[05:31] THORFINN**
Couldn't we wait to start farming
until we've cleared more land?
**[05:35] THORFINN**
It's impossible for us to level
the land and start growing crops.
**[05:43] EINAR**
Thorfinn!
**[05:44] EINAR**
Why are you so unmotivated?
**[05:47] EINAR**
Don't you want to be free?
**[05:50] EINAR**
We're gonna grow crops, no matter what.
**[05:52] EINAR**
Then we'll sell them to the master
and buy back our freedom.
**[05:57] EINAR**
And to do that, we need a horse!
**[06:03] THORFINN**
For a guy who never eats a square meal,
you've sure got a lot of energy.
**[06:07] EINAR**
*You* just don't have enough energy, asshole!
**[06:12] SVERKEL**
I think I get the picture.
**[06:19] SVERKEL**
Hup, and... Ow, ow, ow...
**[06:30] SVERKEL**
What are you doing? Over here. Come on.
**[06:33] SVERKEL**
Can't have a conversation
standing this far apart.
**[06:38] SVERKEL**
Don't step on the ridges.
**[06:46] EINAR**
Hello. Um, can we help you?
**[06:50] SVERKEL**
What are your names?
**[06:52] EINAR**
Oh, right. I'm Einar.
**[06:54] THORFINN**
I'm Thorfinn.
**[06:56] SVERKEL**
Shall I lend you one?
**[06:57] EINAR**
What?
**[06:59] SVERKEL**
A horse. You need a horse, don't you?
**[07:03] BOTH**
What?
**[07:07] EINAR**
Y-Yes, we need a horse!
**[07:09] EINAR**
Wait, for real?
**[07:11] EINAR**
That'd be a huge help.
**[07:16] EINAR**
Uh, actually...
**[07:18] EINAR**
I'm sorry, but who are you?
**[07:36] EINAR**
My back is killing me.
**[07:46] EINAR**
Uh, um... Gramps?
**[07:50] SVERKEL**
It's Sverkel.
**[07:52] SVERKEL**
Mister Sverkel to you.
**[07:55] EINAR**
Mister Sverkel, how long do we have
to keep picking out these rocks?
**[07:59] SVERKEL**
Until the rocks are gone.
**[08:02] SVERKEL**
Come on. I don't see your hands moving.
**[08:04] EINAR**
Oh, s-sorry.
**[08:09] THORFINN**
Ow...
**[08:10] EINAR**
Ow...
**[08:11] SVERKEL**
Good.
**[08:14] EINAR**
So, um, Mister Sverkel!
**[08:16] EINAR**
About you lending us a horse...
**[08:20] EINAR**
Carry the basket, would you?
**[08:29] SVERKEL**
Once you're done chopping firewood,
draw up some water.
**[08:32] SVERKEL**
Be quick.
**[08:33] EINAR**
Yes, sir.
**[08:40] EINAR**
He's totally taking advantage of us.
**[08:42] EINAR**
We don't have time for this.
**[08:45] EINAR**
Does that old man live
in this house all alone?
**[08:52] THORFINN**
Who knows? I've never met him before, either.
**[08:56] EINAR**
Is he really going to lend us a horse?
**[08:59] EINAR**
What if he's just making us
work for him for free?
**[09:04] THORFINN**
Either way, this is a typical day for us.
**[09:08] THORFINN**
After all, we're slaves.
**[09:10] EINAR**
We're the *master's* slaves.
**[09:13] SVERKEL**
I don't care what your circumstances are.
**[09:17] SVERKEL**
This is our agreement.
**[09:18] SVERKEL**
In exchange for borrowing a horse,
you'll do chores at my house
**[09:23] SVERKEL**
when you pick it up and when you drop it off.
**[09:27] SVERKEL**
Got it?
**[09:39] EINAR**
All right. Let's get the next one.
**[09:42] EINAR**
Pull!
**[09:45] EINAR**
Boy, that was easy.
**[09:47] EINAR**
I feel amazing.
**[09:49] EINAR**
I can't believe he actually
let us borrow a horse.
**[09:51] EINAR**
That old man is a good guy.
**[10:00] EINAR**
Hup!
**[10:10] EINAR**
Come on, you can do it.
**[10:12] EINAR**
That's it. Just like that.
**[10:13] EINAR**
You're such a cute horsey.
**[10:17] EINAR**
All right.
**[10:19] EINAR**
Next stump.
**[10:58] EINAR**
At this rate, we might actually be ready
in time for sowing season in the fall.
**[11:06] EINAR**
Maybe the old man will even lend us a plow.
**[11:09] EINAR**
I hope he'll lend us a heavy one with wheels.
**[11:12] THORFINN**
What do we plant in fall?
**[11:15] EINAR**
What?
**[11:17] EINAR**
Wheat, obviously.
**[11:21] THORFINN**
Really? You plant wheat in the fall, huh?
**[11:25] EINAR**
What?
**[11:27] EINAR**
Hey, hey, wait a minute.
Have you ever worked on a farm before?
**[11:33] THORFINN**
No.
**[11:35] THORFINN**
Nobody in my homeland farmed.
**[11:39] THORFINN**
And since I was a kid,
I worked on the battlefield.
**[11:43] EINAR**
A land without farms...
**[11:47] EINAR**
I don't believe it.
**[11:53] EINAR**
My mom and sister
would be shocked to hear that.
**[12:01] EINAR**
Well, don't worry.
Leave all the farming stuff to me.
**[12:05] EINAR**
After all, I'm a professional.
**[12:07] THORFINN**
Sure.
**[12:09] MIDDLE PART**
Hey, slaves.
**[12:11] MIDDLE PART**
Who gave you permission to take that horse?
**[12:16] EINAR**
Ugh, these guys...
**[12:18] THORFINN**
Hello.
**[12:20] EINAR**
We didn't take this without permission.
**[12:24] EINAR**
Mister Sverkel lent it to us.
**[12:26] MIDDLE PART**
What? Who?
**[12:28] EINAR**
Mister Sverkel. He lives way down this road.
**[12:33] MIDDLE PART**
Liar! There's no Sverkel around here.
**[12:37] MIDDLE PART**
So you finally resorted to theft.
**[12:40] BANDANNA**
Huh? Does our farm have a horse like this?
**[12:45] MIDDLE PART**
Hey, slaves. Who'd you say
you borrowed this horse from?
**[12:48] EINAR**
I told you, Mister Sverkel!
**[12:53] EINAR**
You don't know him?
**[12:55] EINAR**
He's a short bald old man.
**[12:58] MIDDLE PART**
Short... bald... old man...
**[13:02] BANDANNA**
Oh, the old master.
**[13:05] MIDDLE PART**
Oh, right. Come to think of it,
that might've been his name.
**[13:09] EINAR**
The *old* master?
**[13:12] BANDANNA**
You're actually lying, aren't you?
**[13:14] BANDANNA**
He's a real crabby old man.
**[13:17] BANDANNA**
There's no way he lent you a horse.
**[13:21] BANDANNA**
He's Ketil's father.
**[13:24] BANDANNA**
He's the most important man on this farm.
**[13:40] EINAR**
Looks like rain.
**[13:43] EINAR**
Thorfinn, let's stop for the day
once we finish this row.
**[13:47] THORFINN**
Got it.
**[13:50] EINAR**
Stop, stop.
**[13:54] EINAR**
More roots.
**[13:56] EINAR**
Even though we pulled out the stumps,
the deepest roots still got left behind.
**[14:03] EINAR**
We don't have a choice.
**[14:04] EINAR**
This year, we'll till shallowly.
**[14:06] EINAR**
We wouldn't want to break the plow
we borrowed by overdoing it.
**[14:15] THORFINN**
It's amazing.
**[14:17] THORFINN**
In one day, we've turned
that wasteland into this.
**[14:24] EINAR**
Look. There's one over there.
**[14:27] EINAR**
And there.
**[14:29] EINAR**
And there. Look, they've got two.
**[14:32] EINAR**
They've got a total of ten heavy plows
after buying four more this year.
**[14:37] EINAR**
Our master is unbelievably wealthy.
**[14:41] THORFINN**
Are they that expensive?
**[14:43] EINAR**
You bet they are.
**[14:45] EINAR**
Back in my village,
eight families shared a single plow.
**[14:49] EINAR**
I'm glad the old master had one.
**[14:52] EINAR**
The retainers definitely wouldn't
have let us borrow one.
**[14:57] THORFINN**
It must be difficult to do the
same work by hand, with hoes.
**[15:02] EINAR**
Having one of these and a horse
makes a world of difference.
**[15:08] THORFINN**
What an incredible invention...
**[15:11] THORFINN**
It must've been invented by a farmer.
**[15:14] THORFINN**
Someone unfamiliar with how difficult
farming is couldn't have made this.
**[15:21] EINAR**
You really don't know the
first thing about farming.
**[15:24] EINAR**
Everything's new to you.
**[15:26] EINAR**
You're like an overgrown baby.
**[15:35] EINAR**
Aw, man. It's starting to rain.
**[15:38] EINAR**
Let's hurry, Thorfinn.
**[15:45] SVERKEL**
Have you prepared for the rain?
**[15:48] KETIL**
Don't change the subject.
**[15:51] KETIL**
I'm worried about your health, Dad.
**[15:54] KETIL**
You're getting too old to push yourself.
**[15:57] KETIL**
When you collapsed on
your farm the other day,
**[15:59] KETIL**
you got lucky because Snake
happened to be around.
**[16:03] SVERKEL**
It's my wish to die on my farm.
**[16:07] KETIL**
Living by yourself at your age
is ridiculous enough.
**[16:11] KETIL**
You're not capable of physical labor.
**[16:13] SVERKEL**
Mind your own business.
I'm managing just fine.
**[16:16] KETIL**
Don't be stubborn, Dad.
**[16:19] SVERKEL**
Ketil, you and I think too differently.
**[16:24] SVERKEL**
If we lived together,
we'd just end up arguing again.
**[16:27] KETIL**
Because you're so stubborn, Dad.
**[16:30] EINAR**
We can't go in there right now.
**[16:36] KETIL**
Think about what I said.
**[16:41] KETIL**
What are you boys doing here?
**[16:44] EINAR**
Hello.
**[16:45] KETIL**
Dad, you can't just do whatever you want.
**[16:49] KETIL**
These are my slaves.
**[17:03] SVERKEL**
You're wet. While you're here,
wash your clothes.
**[17:09] EINAR**
Those two must not get along.
**[17:13] EINAR**
Now then, where's the washtub?
**[17:18] THORFINN**
What is it?
**[17:19] EINAR**
It's Snake. Snake's here.
**[17:22] THORFINN**
A snake?
**[17:27] THORFINN**
What's he doing here?
**[17:29] EINAR**
Did he sleep through that argument?
**[17:34] EINAR**
What's wrong with him?
**[17:36] THORFINN**
He's sprawled out all over the place.
**[17:45] SNAKE**
Gramps, you're cooking, aren't you?
**[17:48] SNAKE**
I'm not letting you eat by yourself again.
**[17:51] SVERKEL**
Damn it. I see you're awake.
**[17:54] SNAKE**
What are you guys doing here?
Did you come to sneak into my bed?
**[17:59] THORFINN**
Good morning.
**[18:02] SVERKEL**
You're a hopeless man.
**[18:05] SVERKEL**
You're only awake during mealtimes.
**[18:08] SVERKEL**
Don't you think that's embarrassing?
**[18:10] SVERKEL**
How can a grown man like you brazenly
eat when he doesn't even work?
**[18:15] SNAKE**
Shut up, Gramps.
**[18:18] SNAKE**
Thieves come at night.
**[18:20] SNAKE**
This farm is peaceful because
we patrol it every night.
**[18:25] SNAKE**
That's why I've got no problem eating.
**[18:28] SVERKEL**
How are you guarding anything when all
you do is sneak into young women's homes?
**[18:32] SNAKE**
We're guarding the young women
so they don't get stolen.
**[18:37] SVERKEL**
You've always got a comeback.
**[18:39] SNAKE**
So do you, Gramps.
**[18:44] SNAKE**
What are you guys doing?
**[18:46] SNAKE**
Come over here and eat.
You haven't eaten yet, right?
**[18:52] EINAR**
Are you sure?
**[18:54] SNAKE**
Eat, eat. The food ain't so fancy
that you need to be shy.
**[18:57] SVERKEL**
How dare you.
**[18:59] SVERKEL**
Have a seat. If you worked today,
then you've earned the right to eat.
**[19:08] EINAR**
Is it true that thieves come to the farm?
**[19:12] SNAKE**
They do. All the time.
**[19:14] SNAKE**
They come for unharvested wheat,
pigs, that kind of thing.
**[19:18] EINAR**
Huh.
**[19:20] SNAKE**
Some of them are armed, too.
**[19:22] SNAKE**
Beating up those guys
and capturing them is our job.
**[19:27] SNAKE**
We really do work around here.
**[19:31] SVERKEL**
What we'd lose to thieves
is equal to what we pay you.
**[19:36] SNAKE**
You really know
how to piss someone off, don't you?
**[19:41] SVERKEL**
We could chase off thieves without your help.
**[19:45] SVERKEL**
We're Nordic men.
**[19:47] SVERKEL**
We know how to use swords and spears.
**[19:50] SNAKE**
Oh? You're saying you can
still fight at your age?
**[19:54] SVERKEL**
Don't flatter yourself, Snake.
**[19:56] SVERKEL**
There are plenty of fighters
more skilled than you.
**[20:00] SNAKE**
I'm just worried about your health, old man.
**[20:03] SVERKEL**
I'm not so decrepit that I need your concern.
**[20:06] SNAKE**
Don't be so angry.
**[20:08] SNAKE**
You'll collapse again, Grandpa.
**[20:11] SNAKE**
In reality, despite what you say, this farm's
fighting force is too small for its scale.
**[20:18] SNAKE**
The 13 men I've got have
their hands full chasing down thieves.
**[20:22] SNAKE**
You could easily take over
this farm with 50 to 60 men.
**[20:29] SNAKE**
Right, Thorfinn?
**[20:30] THORFINN**
Huh?
**[20:34] THORFINN**
Oh, um... I'm not sure.
**[20:41] SVERKEL**
Nothing tougher than thieves
ever comes to this place.
**[20:45] SNAKE**
You don't know that.
**[20:47] SNAKE**
It'll be too late once
it's already happening.
**[20:50] SVERKEL**
Don't worry.
**[20:51] SVERKEL**
Regardless of what happens,
I won't ever come crying to your lot.
**[20:55] EINAR**
Why don't you get anything
tougher than thieves here?
**[21:01] EINAR**
S-Sorry.
**[21:05] SVERKEL**
Because of King Harald's influence.
**[21:07] SVERKEL**
Twice a year, Ketil sends an absurd
amount of tribute to him.
**[21:14] SVERKEL**
Because the king accepts his tribute,
he's obligated to protect Ketil.
**[21:22] SVERKEL**
It's foolishness.
**[21:24] SVERKEL**
Buying peace with money is foolishness.
**[21:27] SVERKEL**
What need is there to hold so much land
a single farmer can't defend it himself?
**[21:34] SNAKE**
How many days do you think it
takes to get here from Jelling?
**[21:38] SNAKE**
We're the ones actually defending the farm.
**[21:42] SVERKEL**
Too much wealth brings about misfortune.
**[21:45] SNAKE**
You're ignoring me now?
**[21:47] SVERKEL**
Increasing your wealth
makes you fear losing it.
**[21:50] SVERKEL**
You spend money to assuage your fears
and then have to earn more.
**[21:55] SVERKEL**
And my idiot son hasn't realized yet
how pointless it is.
**[22:03] SNAKE**
I've had enough.
Old men love giving lectures.
**[22:10] SNAKE**
Hey, it stopped raining.
**[22:18] SNAKE**
Now then, it's time
to go out patrolling again.
**[22:21] SVERKEL**
Don't come back here.
**[22:29] SNAKE**
But you miss me when I don't.
**[22:32] SVERKEL**
Get out of here!
**[22:41] EINAR**
Those two were weird.
**[22:43] EINAR**
They get along better than
the actual father and son.
**[22:46] THORFINN**
Yeah.
**[22:48] THORFINN**
I feel like I learned a lot of things today.
**[22:56] EINAR**
Good for you, you overgrown baby.
**[22:59] THORFINN**
Don't call me that.
**[23:11] THORFINN**
Too much wealth, huh?
**[23:31] EINAR**
You can spread more seed than that.
**[23:34] THORFINN**
What?
**[23:35] THORFINN**
But isn't this all we have?
**[23:37] EINAR**
It'll be fine. Grab huge handfuls.
**[23:41] EINAR**
I'm your friend. Trust me.
**[23:44] THORFINN**
Friend?
**[23:45] EINAR**
What? No way.
**[23:48] EINAR**
Why would you question that?
**[23:50] EINAR**
We're friends, aren't we?
**[23:51] EINAR**
What? We're not?
**[24:04] THORFINN**
No...
**[24:09] THORFINN**
We're friends.

**[00:20] BADGER**
There were two of them.
**[00:22] GUEST A**
It must be them again.
***SIGN*** Iron Fist Ketil
***SIGN*** Iron Fist Ketil
**[00:26] BADGER**
Their footprints do look similar.
**[00:28] SNAKE**
Why'd this have to happen
while the master's gone?
**[00:32] SNAKE**
What's the damage?
**[00:35] GUEST B**
One bag of flour and some dried meat.
**[00:40] FOX**
It's no use, boss.
**[00:42] FOX**
They're all mixed up with
other footprints. I can't track them.
**[00:46] SNAKE**
No matter.
**[00:48] SNAKE**
They don't steal much,
but they've developed a taste for it.
**[00:53] BADGER**
Do they think we don't know, Snake?
**[00:58] SNAKE**
Fine, then.
Sounds like they need to be punished.
**[02:42] ARNHEID**
What? That's incredible.
**[02:44] ARNHEID**
That means the old master likes you.
**[02:50] EINAR**
Does he?
**[02:51] ARNHEID**
Yes, he does.
**[02:53] ARNHEID**
Not only does he
lend you his tools and horse,
**[02:55] ARNHEID**
but he invited you to eat
at the same table with him.
**[02:57] EINAR**
He's just paying us back
for doing his chores.
**[03:03] ARNHEID**
We're slaves.
**[03:05] ARNHEID**
Normally, people *don't* pay us back.
**[03:09] EINAR**
Oh, right.
**[03:15] EINAR**
Now that you mention it,
I guess you're right.
**[03:18] ARNHEID**
That's right.
**[03:20] EINAR**
But why does he like us, then?
**[03:26] EINAR**
Huh? U-Uh...
**[03:29] ARNHEID**
I'm sorry.
**[03:31] ARNHEID**
Einar, you're a good person.
**[03:33] ARNHEID**
You just don't realize it yourself.
**[03:41] EINAR**
What? No, wait, but...
**[03:45] THORFINN**
Einar, I'm heading out.
**[03:46] EINAR**
I'm not that special.
**[03:50] EINAR**
Huh? Oh, sure.
**[03:54] EINAR**
Is he trying to be considerate?
**[03:59] EINAR**
He's a good guy, too.
Doesn't talk much, though.
**[04:03] ARNHEID**
I know.
**[04:04] MISTRESS**
Arnheid!
**[04:06] ARNHEID**
Oh, no. It's the mistress.
**[04:09] EINAR**
Sorry for keeping you tied up.
**[04:11] ARNHEID**
Not at all.
**[04:12] ARNHEID**
I look forward to every morning
now that I have someone to talk to.
**[04:19] ARNHEID**
See you later.
**[04:22] EINAR**
See you tomorrow morning.
**[04:28] EINAR**
Yahoo!
**[04:32] EINAR**
She called me a good person.
**[04:35] EINAR**
I'm a good person!
**[04:41] MISTRESS**
How dare you stay out there chatting
when breakfast isn't even ready yet.
**[04:47] ARNHEID**
I'm sorry, mistress.
**[04:49] MISTRESS**
We don't keep you around for fun, you know.
**[04:52] MISTRESS**
You have to earn your keep.
**[04:55] ARNHEID**
Yes, mistress.
**[04:56] MISTRESS**
The master will be returning
from the thing today.
**[05:00] MISTRESS**
He might be bringing guests back with him,
so prepare accordingly.
**[05:07] MISTRESS**
I suppose an enslaved man *would* be
a good match for an enslaved woman.
**[05:16] EINAR**
Hey, they're sprouting.
**[05:18] EINAR**
These are wheat seedlings, Thorfinn.
**[05:22] THORFINN**
They look so... feeble.
**[05:26] THORFINN**
Do they always look like this?
**[05:29] EINAR**
Yup, they sure do.
**[05:33] THORFINN**
How strange. So these become bread?
**[05:37] EINAR**
Surprised?
**[05:39] THORFINN**
Yeah.
**[05:41] EINAR**
Impressive, isn't it?
**[05:44] THORFINN**
Yeah, it's amazing.
**[05:46] EINAR**
We'll grow and sell, grow and sell,
**[05:50] EINAR**
and eventually buy ourselves back.
**[05:54] EINAR**
It might takes years, but someday...
**[05:59] EINAR**
All right. I'm feeling motivated.
**[06:02] EINAR**
This is our first step toward freedom.
**[06:05] EINAR**
Let's clear these woods,
so we can plant double next year.
**[06:12] EINAR**
Oh...
**[06:15] EINAR**
We can eventually buy our freedom by farming,
**[06:21] EINAR**
but I wonder if Arnheid has a similar deal.
**[06:28] THORFINN**
I don't know. Why don't you ask her?
**[06:34] EINAR**
You think it'd be okay to ask that?
**[06:37] THORFINN**
More importantly, what are we
doing with these today?
**[06:41] THORFINN**
Oh, the wheat?
We won't have anything to do for a while.
**[06:45] THORFINN**
I see. So we should keep clearing the woods.
**[06:48] EINAR**
So we'll pray.
**[06:50] THORFINN**
What? Pray?
**[06:58] EINAR**
Almighty God!
**[07:00] EINAR**
Make our crops grow!
**[07:02] EINAR**
Make them ripen and grow!
**[07:04] EINAR**
Keep insects and mold away!
**[07:05] EINAR**
Send the rain our way!
**[07:11] EINAR**
Join me.
**[07:13] THORFINN**
What?
**[07:15] THORFINN**
Who am I supposed to p-pray to?
**[07:19] EINAR**
Anyone.
**[07:21] EINAR**
Yahweh, Freya...
Pray to everyone and everything.
**[07:28] EINAR**
Get down here.
**[07:33] EINAR**
If we want a successful harvest,
all we can do is pray to God.
**[07:37] EINAR**
We have nothing to offer.
**[07:39] EINAR**
But we'll pray extra hard to make up for it.
**[07:42] EINAR**
Make our crops grow!
**[07:45] EINAR**
Come on. Put your hands
together and pray with me.
**[07:47] THORFINN**
What? O-Okay...
**[07:50] THORFINN**
M-Make our crops grow...
**[07:53] EINAR**
I can't hear you!
**[07:55] THORFINN**
Okay!
**[07:56] THORFINN**
Make our crops grow!
**[07:58] EINAR**
Don't be so embarrassed.
**[07:59] EINAR**
Nothing's more embarrassing
than doing it half-assed.
**[08:02] THORFINN**
O-Okay!
**[08:03] EINAR**
Ready, and...
**[08:04] EINAR/THORFINN**
Keep insects and mold away!
**[08:06] EINAR/THORFINN**
Send the rain our way!
**[08:22] THORGIL**
Wow, the farm hasn't changed at all.
**[08:27] THORGIL**
Are Mom and Olmar doing well, Dad?
**[08:31] KETIL**
Yeah. Olmar is so full of energy,
he's a pain in my ass.
**[08:35] KETIL**
He's anxious to head off to battle like you.
**[08:41] THORGIL**
He hasn't changed since he was little either,
**[08:44] THORGIL**
even though he's a coward.
**[08:46] KETIL**
Everyone has their strengths
and weaknesses, Thorgil.
**[08:50] KETIL**
He's not fit for battle.
**[08:52] KETIL**
People should stay where they belong.
**[08:57] THORGIL**
I wouldn't be so sure.
**[08:59] THORGIL**
Sometimes the battlefield changes a man,
like King Canute.
**[09:03] KETIL**
"King"?
**[09:05] THORGIL**
Nobody calls him a prince anymore.
**[09:08] THORGIL**
He changed quite a lot in this war.
**[09:11] THORGIL**
He's a proper general now.
**[09:16] THORGIL**
Why not send Olmar to the battlefield
and see how he fares?
**[09:20] KETIL**
You can't be serious.
**[09:22] KETIL**
He'd never survive with his skills.
**[09:29] BADGER**
Isn't that the master?
**[09:31] SNAKE**
Perfect timing.
**[09:35] SNAKE**
Isn't that...
**[09:37] SNAKE**
It really is you, Thorgil.
**[09:42] SNAKE**
When did you get back?
**[09:43] THORGIL**
Five or six days ago.
**[09:45] THORGIL**
I ran into Dad at the thing,
so I thought I'd stop by.
**[09:50] SNAKE**
You're a tough one. You haven't died yet?
**[09:53] THORGIL**
Thanks to the training
you put me through, Snake.
**[09:58] KETIL**
Snake, what have you got trailing behind you?
**[10:01] SNAKE**
Oh, right.
**[10:03] SNAKE**
Hey.
**[10:06] BADGER**
Come on, hurry up.
**[10:10] SNAKE**
They're thieves.
**[10:12] SNAKE**
I was going to hand them over to you.
**[10:14] KETIL**
Thieves?
**[10:15] SNAKE**
We'd been experiencing a rash
of similar burglaries recently.
**[10:20] SNAKE**
I've got a hunch they're behind all of them.
**[10:27] SNAKE**
They may be kids, but theft is theft.
**[10:31] SNAKE**
They need to be punished, master.
**[10:56] THORA**
Sture, my hands hurt.
**[11:00] THORA**
What's going to happen to us?
**[11:07] THORA**
Are we going to die?
**[11:11] STURE**
It's okay. It's all right.
**[11:15] STURE**
I'm right here with you.
**[11:20] THORGIL**
In other words...
**[11:22] THORGIL**
people talk about military units,
**[11:24] THORGIL**
but nobody really cares who their
allies or enemies are supposed to be.
**[11:28] THORGIL**
Once the fighting starts, you and your
clansmen pick your targets and attack.
**[11:33] THORGIL**
Everyone's desperate to prove they're
the greatest daredevil on the North Sea.
**[11:39] THORGIL**
After the battle,
you enjoy plundering the spoils.
**[11:42] THORGIL**
Guys kill each other all the time
over women they can sell.
**[11:48] THORGIL**
Olmar.
**[11:49] OLMAR**
Huh?
**[11:49] THORGIL**
What do you say?
Do you want to go to England?
**[11:53] OLMAR**
Uh, I...
**[11:55] THORGIL**
What? You don't want to?
**[11:57] OLMAR**
Oh, o-o-of course I'll go to war!
**[12:01] OLMAR**
I'd love a chance to prove myself!
**[12:03] THORGIL**
That's my little brother!
**[12:03] OLMAR**
Ow...
**[12:06] THORGIL**
Maybe I'll give you a souvenir.
**[12:09] THORGIL**
Bring me my necklace.
**[12:11] SUBORDINATE**
Yes, sir.
**[12:21] OLMAR**
What is this, jerky? Can I eat it?
**[12:25] THORGIL**
Sure, but ears don't taste very good.
**[12:28] OLMAR**
Huh?
**[12:30] THORGIL**
They're the ears of Englishmen.
**[12:33] OLMAR**
Ears?
**[12:46] OLMAR**
Oh, uh...
**[12:48] THORGIL**
You really are a scaredy-cat.
**[12:50] THORGIL**
How are you going to fight like that?
**[12:54] THORGIL**
We're sons of Iron Fist Ketil.
**[12:58] OLMAR**
Iron...
**[12:59] OLMAR**
Iron Fist?
**[13:01] THORGIL**
You don't know?
**[13:03] THORGIL**
Our dad was a legend when he was young.
**[13:06] THORGIL**
As soon as the fighting started, his weapon
would shatter under his own strength,
**[13:14] THORGIL**
so he'd fight the rest
of the battle bare-handed.
**[13:17] THORGIL**
He accomplished more than
anyone fighting like that.
**[13:23] OLMAR**
What? Our dad?
**[13:27] THORGIL**
When I talk to the veterans,
the name Iron Fist comes up a lot.
**[13:32] THORGIL**
You should show more respect to Dad.
**[13:36] KETIL**
Thorgil, you must be tired from your journey.
**[13:40] KETIL**
Why don't you rest inside?
**[13:42] THORGIL**
I'm not that weak.
**[13:45] KETIL**
Thorgil.
**[13:52] THORGIL**
If the great Iron Fist Ketil commands it.
**[13:56] SNAKE**
Master.
**[13:59] SNAKE**
I'm sorry, but could you take care of
those two before you go off to rest?
**[14:14] KETIL**
First, why don't you tell me your names?
**[14:19] GUEST**
Come on, tell him your names.
**[14:21] KETIL**
Don't do that.
**[14:23] KETIL**
They can't speak because they're frightened.
**[14:26] GUEST**
Sorry.
**[14:29] KETIL**
Tell me your names.
**[14:34] STURE**
I-I'm Sture. My younger sister's name is Thora.
**[14:39] KETIL**
I see, I see. Sture and Thora.
**[14:43] KETIL**
Do you have anyone who could
speak in your defense?
**[14:47] SNAKE**
Besides them, their family consists of
their mother and a baby.
**[14:50] SNAKE**
Their mother was sick in bed,
so I didn't bring her here.
**[14:54] SNAKE**
Their father is missing.
**[14:57] KETIL**
What's your father's name? Is he well?
**[15:03] SNAKE**
Answer him.
**[15:06] STURE**
My d-dad is Snorri.
**[15:09] STURE**
Last fall, he went out to sell vegetables
and never came back.
**[15:18] PATER**
Is your grandfather's name by any chance Bo?
**[15:25] STURE**
Yes.
**[15:28] PATER**
Their father is Snorri, son of Bo.
**[15:30] PATER**
He owes money on the land
he rents from you.
**[15:33] KETIL**
Ah, that Snorri.
**[15:36] KETIL**
I knew I hadn't seen him recently.
**[15:39] THORGIL**
He must be dead.
**[15:41] THORGIL**
He hasn't come back in a year.
**[15:43] THORGIL**
He's not coming back.
**[15:45] THORGIL**
A thief probably killed—
**[15:47] STURE**
You're wrong! Dad's just out on an errand!
**[15:59] KETIL**
* Traditionally, families that have*
* lost their breadwinner*
**[16:01] KETIL**
*are hired by other families to do work.*
**[16:06] KETIL**
* These children may be healthy,*
* but they have a sick mother and a baby.*
**[16:11] KETIL**
*Nobody would take them in.*
**[16:15] MISTRESS**
What's the matter, honey?
**[16:19] KETIL**
J-Just got a bit of dust in my eye.
**[16:26] KETIL**
So, what did these two steal?
**[16:30] SNAKE**
Their crimes are numerous, but they
confessed to stealing one bag of flour.
**[16:36] SNAKE**
My men and I can attest to that.
**[16:39] KETIL**
You didn't threaten them
into saying that, did you?
**[16:42] SNAKE**
No, of course not.
Though I did convince them to talk.
**[16:50] (Flashback) SNAKE**
I'll wait until this bag is empty.
**[16:56] (Flashback) SNAKE**
You'll get off easy as long as you're honest.
**[17:01] SNAKE**
I told them your name's written
on the bottom of our bags.
**[17:09] KETIL**
That's practically threatening them!
**[17:11] SNAKE**
What? That wouldn't have been enough to
make them confess if they weren't guilty.
**[17:17] THORGIL**
Then it's simple. One arm.
**[17:24] STURE**
M-My sister's still little!
Please go easy on her!
**[17:29] THORGIL**
Oh? Then you'll accept
your sister's punishment, too.
**[17:34] THORGIL**
We'll cut off both your arms.
**[17:39] THORA**
No... Sture...
**[17:42] SNAKE**
Well... I know what I said, but I'd like
to ask you to go easy on them, too.
**[17:52] THORGIL**
Then it's decided. Right, Dad?
**[17:59] KETIL**
*He's horrifying.*
**[18:01] KETIL**
*I can hardly believe he's my son.*
**[18:05] KETIL**
*Why did you have to steal from me?*
**[18:09] KETIL**
*I have no choice but to punish you.*
**[18:17] PATER**
I'm against it.
**[18:19] PATER**
You'd be practically executing him.
**[18:21] PATER**
It's too great a punishment for theft.
**[18:24] KETIL**
Pater...
**[18:26] PATER**
May I offer my opinion, master?
**[18:31] KETIL**
Yes. Yes, speak, Pater.
**[18:37] PATER**
As one who helps run this farm,
**[18:41] PATER**
I don't think it's right to harshly
punish such a young boy.
**[18:45] PATER**
Cutting off both his arms
would make him useless.
**[18:49] PATER**
Sture, how old are you?
**[18:53] STURE**
Twelve.
**[18:55] PATER**
Good. That's old enough
to start working with the adults.
**[19:01] PATER**
You must be compensated for their theft,
and their father's debt must be repaid.
**[19:05] PATER**
They can pay you back by working.
**[19:09] PATER**
I recommend that you hire these children
and their mother to work on your farm.
**[19:16] PATER**
They can grow crops on the
land you lent to their father.
**[19:23] PATER**
I'll teach Sture what to do.
**[19:26] PATER**
If he grows into a good worker,
you'll be fully compensated for this matter.
**[19:32] PATER**
They won't need to steal anymore, either.
**[19:35] PATER**
It solves the problem.
**[19:38] KETIL**
Yes, yes. I couldn't agree more.
**[19:41] KETIL**
I must be compensated
for the loss, yes. In that case—
**[19:44] PATER**
For the aforementioned reasons, I believe a
beating would be an appropriate punishment.
**[19:54] KETIL**
What?
**[19:57] THORGIL**
Well, I understand your argument.
**[20:00] KETIL**
No. No, wait. They can pay back
what they stole by working for me.
**[20:06] KETIL**
Paying off their debt
can be their punishment.
**[20:11] SNAKE**
They can't get off with
no punishment at all, master.
**[20:16] SNAKE**
If you don't, people won't take us seriously.
**[20:26] SNAKE**
And nobody likes a kid with sticky fingers.
**[20:30] SNAKE**
Punishing them is for their own good.
**[20:39] SNAKE**
How many strokes will it be?
**[20:50] KETIL**
Five... Ten. Ten strokes.
**[20:55] SNAKE**
That's ten strokes each.
**[20:59] SNAKE**
You're first, boy. Bite down hard.
**[21:04] THORA**
Sture...
**[21:05] STURE**
Stay back!
**[21:07] THORA**
Sture!
**[21:08] STURE**
Twenty! Hit me 20 times!
**[21:12] STURE**
Just please, please don't hit my sister!
**[21:17] THORGIL**
Oh? Now this is interesting.
You've got some guts.
**[21:21] THORGIL**
Dad, let me do it.
**[21:24] SNAKE**
What? But you don't know how to hold back.
**[21:27] THORA**
N-No...
**[21:28] SNAKE**
Don't kill him.
**[21:29] THORGIL**
Yeah, yeah.
**[21:30] SNAKE**
Be gentle.
**[21:31] THORGIL**
Yeah, yeah.
**[21:33] SNAKE**
Don't hit his head or anything.
**[21:35] THORGIL**
Okay, okay.
**[21:36] THORGIL**
Gentle, right? Here we go, kid.
**[21:46] THORA**
Sture!
**[21:51] THORGIL**
One.
**[21:52] THORA**
Sture!
**[21:52] KETIL**
W-Wait. Stop, Thorgil.
**[21:55] KETIL**
I'll do it. I'll do it myself.
**[22:25] THORGIL**
Where's Dad?
**[22:27] OLMAR**
He went to bed.
**[22:29] THORGIL**
Good grief. Iron Fist Ketil
must be getting old.
**[22:37] KETIL**
All that Iron Fist stuff is a lie.
**[22:43] KETIL**
A Norse man can't be a coward
and make it in this world.
**[22:50] KETIL**
Everyone expects me to be brave.
**[23:00] KETIL**
Nobody suspects a "great man"
like me would lie about that.
**[23:15] KETIL**
I'm afraid of Thorgil, my own son.
**[23:22] KETIL**
I'm afraid of war. I'm afraid of violence.
**[23:29] ARNHEID**
Being kind can't possibly be a bad thing.
**[23:35] ARNHEID**
I know your pain.
**[23:41] KETIL**
You're the only one who'd say that to me.
**[23:46] KETIL**
You're the only one I can tell everything.
**[23:54] KETIL**
Stay with me.
**[23:58] KETIL**
Without you, my world is full of darkness.

**[00:41] THORFINN**
Einar...
**[01:03] THORFINN**
No, wait. Wait!
**[01:07] THORFINN**
Wait!
**[01:32] THORFINN**
*Damn it...*
**[01:35] THORFINN**
*Why am I here?*
**[01:43] THORFINN**
*I mustn't fall.*
**[01:46] THORFINN**
*If I fall down there...*
**[01:58] THORFINN**
No! Please, don't!
**[02:02] THORFINN**
I'm begging you!
**[02:21] EINAR**
Good morning, Thorfinn.
**[02:24] EINAR**
You were screaming even more
than usual this morning.
**[02:32] THORFINN**
I dreamed about falling down a cliff.
**[02:37] EINAR**
You remember your dream this morning?
**[02:41] THORFINN**
A little.
**[02:42] EINAR**
You were saying all kinds
of things in your sleep,
**[02:46] EINAR**
like "Father" and "Askeladd."
**[02:51] EINAR**
Is "Askeladd" someone's name?
**[04:37] THORFINN**
*No matter what...*
***SIGN*** An Empty Man
***SIGN*** An Empty Man
**[04:40] THORFINN**
* No matter what I do,*
* I can't fully remember my dreams.*
**[04:48] EINAR**
I followed her wondering what she wanted
to show me, and it was a moth this big!
**[04:49] THORFINN**
*I know only that they're horrifying.*
**[04:53] EINAR**
I spent a half-hour explaining to
Lotta that it was a moth, not a butterfly
**[04:53] THORFINN**
*And I feel like...*
**[04:58] THORFINN**
* I feel like I've forgotten*
* something really important.*
**[04:58] EINAR**
but she insisted on keeping it.
**[05:01] EINAR**
Then Mom suddenly showed up, and...
**[05:07] THORFINN**
*It's like a fish bone stuck in my throat.*
**[05:12] THORFINN**
*It scares me. I wish I could truly forget.*
**[05:17] THORFINN**
* But I get the sense it's something*
* I mustn't forget.*
**[05:25] THORFINN**
*I wonder what it is...*
**[05:41] EINAR**
Pull!
**[05:45] CHUBBY**
Hey, look at how much
their wheat has grown already.
**[05:49] CHUBBY**
Maybe the land's fertile
because they just cleared it.
**[05:53] CHUBBY**
No, it's Einar.
**[05:56] CHUBBY**
They suddenly made a bunch of progress
clearing the land since he showed up.
**[06:00] EINAR**
Push!
**[06:10] ISVAR**
The master's out of his mind.
**[06:13] ISVAR**
Farm work is for free men,
and he's allowing slaves to do it.
**[06:20] ISVAR**
This isn't right, even if it's on his orders.
**[06:25] ISVAR**
The world will fall into chaos if slaves
are treated the same as retainers.
**[06:32] ISVAR**
Right, guys?
**[06:42] THORFINN**
Askeladd is the man who killed my father.
**[06:50] THORFINN**
He was a Danish warmonger.
**[06:54] THORFINN**
He was a strong and cruel man.
**[07:00] THORFINN**
Catch.
**[07:01] EINAR**
Oh, right.
**[07:04] EINAR**
So, he showed up in your dream?
**[07:08] THORFINN**
I'm not sure.
**[07:13] THORFINN**
I followed Askeladd onto the battlefield,
**[07:19] THORFINN**
so I could avenge my father.
**[07:22] THORFINN**
I fought for ten—no, 11 years.
**[07:30] THORFINN**
I hated him so much.
**[07:34] THORFINN**
I wanted to kill him.
**[07:39] EINAR**
So, did you get revenge?
**[07:45] THORFINN**
No.
**[07:47] THORFINN**
Askeladd was killed by another man
right before my eyes.
**[07:59] EINAR**
Thorfinn, throw me the next one.
**[08:02] THORFINN**
Oh, right.
**[08:06] THORFINN**
Hup.
**[08:10] EINAR**
Well, I don't know the details,
**[08:14] EINAR**
but I'm starting to understand
why you're always so listless.
**[08:22] EINAR**
If you're dreaming about him,
then you must not be over it yet.
**[08:28] THORFINN**
You're right. Maybe you're right, but...
**[08:37] THORFINN**
*That's not all. There's something else.*
**[08:42] THORFINN**
* I feel like I've forgotten*
* something more important.*
**[08:47] THORFINN**
*Something very important.*
**[08:59] EINAR**
Well, it's not the kind of thing you can
get over just because someone tells you to.
**[09:07] EINAR**
But your quest for revenge is over now.
**[09:15] EINAR**
And besides, hating a dead man
won't get you anywhere.
**[09:21] EINAR**
Isn't that right?
**[09:25] (Flashback) ASKELADD**
Stay back, Thorfinn!
**[09:27] (Flashback) ASKELADD**
Become a true warrior, son of Thors...
**[09:37] THORFINN**
I don't hate him anymore,
**[09:42] THORFINN**
which is exactly my problem.
**[09:49] THORFINN**
Without my hate,
**[09:55] THORFINN**
I'm empty.
**[10:01] THORFINN**
I survived on my hatred alone.
**[10:08] THORFINN**
I don't know anything
besides the battlefield.
**[10:14] THORFINN**
I don't know the first thing
about fixing a roof.
**[10:17] THORFINN**
I can't do anything.
**[10:19] THORFINN**
I don't even know what I *should* be doing.
**[10:25] THORFINN**
I'm empty.
**[10:31] SVERKEL**
Work.
**[10:33] EINAR**
Sir!
**[10:35] SVERKEL**
If you've got time to flap
your gums, then work.
**[10:38] SVERKEL**
That's not the only job
I've got for you today.
**[10:53] SVERKEL**
You ready? Watch this.
**[11:11] SVERKEL**
Give it a try.
**[11:13] SVERKEL**
Catch some big, fleshy ones.
**[11:20] EINAR**
Huh? It's not spreading.
**[11:23] SVERKEL**
Pull yourself together.
**[11:25] SVERKEL**
We can't eat meat right now
because it's Lent.
**[11:29] SVERKEL**
Are you trying to force this old man
to eat nothing but wheat?
**[11:36] EINAR**
Hey, looking good.
**[11:39] THORFINN**
It's no use. I didn't catch a single one.
**[11:42] SVERKEL**
Put more spin on it, like this.
**[11:46] SVERKEL**
Don't keep throwing in the same area.
**[11:50] THORFINN**
Okay.
**[11:57] SVERKEL**
You can start learning things one at a time.
**[12:06] SVERKEL**
If you're empty, then you can
fit anything inside you.
**[12:09] SVERKEL**
In fact, it's better to be empty
if you want to be reborn.
**[12:16] EINAR**
What? Were you eavesdropping?
**[12:18] SVERKEL**
I just happened to overhear.
**[12:25] THORFINN**
*Can* I be reborn?
**[12:29] SVERKEL**
Work. Your hands aren't moving.
**[12:40] EINAR**
It's so cold.
**[12:42] EINAR**
It's definitely gonna snow.
**[12:44] EINAR**
Catching fish will be rough in this cold.
**[12:48] EINAR**
I'd like to redeem myself, though.
**[12:52] EINAR**
Yesterday, between the two of us,
**[12:54] EINAR**
all we caught were three little fish
and a bunch of clams.
**[12:58] EINAR**
Right, Thorfinn?
**[13:00] THORFINN**
Huh? Oh, sorry. I wasn't listening.
**[13:05] EINAR**
Were you lost in thought again?
**[13:11] THORFINN**
Do you think people can change?
**[13:16] THORFINN**
What does it take for someone to change?
**[13:21] EINAR**
Thorfinn, you used to be a warrior, right?
**[13:26] THORFINN**
Huh? Yeah.
**[13:28] EINAR**
Warriors are, you know...
**[13:31] EINAR**
"Life's all about carrying axes into battle,
plundering the spoils, and drinking beer!"
**[13:36] EINAR**
"Hardy har har!"
**[13:38] EINAR**
Those guys, right?
**[13:41] THORFINN**
M-More or less. I didn't carry an axe, though.
**[13:49] EINAR**
Looking at you now, there isn't anyone
who'd think you're a former warrior.
**[13:58] THORFINN**
You think so?
**[13:59] EINAR**
"You think so?"
**[14:02] EINAR**
Take a look at your own face in the water.
**[14:11] EINAR**
I'm really glad I didn't meet you
back when you were still a warrior.
**[14:18] EINAR**
Worst case, you might've killed me.
**[14:25] EINAR**
People can change, Thorfinn.
**[14:28] EINAR**
You're probably on your way to
becoming a better person right now.
**[14:45] THORFINN**
You think so?
**[14:49] EINAR**
I do.
**[14:54] THORFINN**
Thank you, Einar.
**[15:02] THORFINN**
What's wrong? Einar—
**[15:17] THORFINN**
The wheat...
**[15:46] THORFINN**
It's all...
**[15:49] THORFINN**
Did people do this? Why?
**[15:56] EINAR**
Wheat is a hardy crop.
**[16:00] EINAR**
It gets back up on its own
even if the wind blows it down.
**[16:07] EINAR**
They knew exactly what they were doing.
**[16:11] EINAR**
They dug up the roots.
**[16:19] THORFINN**
Hey, where are you going?
**[16:21] EINAR**
It was the retainers.
**[16:23] EINAR**
They're the only ones who would've done this.
**[16:26] THORFINN**
Wait. What are you planning to do?
**[16:29] THORFINN**
Einar...
**[16:30] THORFINN**
Don't you get it?
**[16:32] THORFINN**
If slaves attack free men...
**[16:35] EINAR**
I don't care. I'll kill them.
**[16:38] THORFINN**
Calm down.
**[16:40] THORFINN**
We don't have proof they did it.
**[16:42] THORFINN**
Even if we question them,
they're bound to deny it.
**[16:45] THORFINN**
Stop, Einar.
**[16:47] THORFINN**
Let's talk to Pater first.
**[16:52] EINAR**
You're awfully calm, Thorfinn.
**[16:54] EINAR**
Do you not understand this situation?
**[16:59] EINAR**
We used up the soil's fertility,
but we'll have no harvest.
**[17:03] EINAR**
We'll have to borrow seeds
for the next planting, too.
**[17:07] EINAR**
But more than that, they... they...
**[17:13] EINAR**
They should know the difficulty
and joy of growing wheat.
**[17:19] EINAR**
They're farmers, too!
**[17:23] EINAR**
How could they do this?
**[17:27] EINAR**
You should be angry, Thorfinn.
**[17:29] EINAR**
Our wheat has been ruined!
**[17:38] THORFINN**
I...
**[17:40] THORFINN**
Until now, I've been someone
who took and destroyed.
**[17:49] THORFINN**
Unlike you, I have no right
to be angry at the retainers.
**[17:58] THORFINN**
If you want to kill the retainers,
**[18:03] THORFINN**
then I deserve to die by your hand
a hundred times over, too.
**[18:19] THORFINN**
First, let's calm down. Please, Einar.
**[18:33] PATER**
I see...
**[18:35] PATER**
This certainly is awful.
**[18:39] PATER**
Neither of you saw it happen?
**[18:43] THORFINN**
No.
**[18:45] PATER**
Leave this field the way it is until
I'm finished with my investigation.
**[18:49] PATER**
They may have left some clues behind.
**[18:54] PATER**
So, do you have any idea
who might have done it?
**[18:59] EINAR**
The retainers.
**[19:03] PATER**
I see...
**[19:05] PATER**
All right. I'll report
all of this to the master.
**[19:09] PATER**
Leave the rest to me.
**[19:14] PATER**
I suffered a lot as a slave, too.
**[19:19] PATER**
I wondered why my bullies would do something
that didn't benefit them in any way.
**[19:28] PATER**
People who love to discriminate
can be found everywhere,
**[19:31] PATER**
but not everyone is like that.
**[19:35] PATER**
Don't lose hope, you two.
**[19:56] EINAR**
Apparently...
**[20:00] EINAR**
the master has really
taken a liking to Arnheid.
**[20:07] EINAR**
She doesn't have a deal like ours that
allows her to earn her freedom by working.
**[20:15] EINAR**
It seems like she's given up
on ever being free again.
**[20:22] EINAR**
Even if they like you,
you become bound to them.
**[20:25] EINAR**
If they hate you, this is how they treat you.
**[20:30] EINAR**
What kind of lives are we living?
**[20:46] RETAINER**
That was more work than
I expected. I'm exhausted.
**[20:49] RETAINER**
What are you talking about?
You were just watching.
**[20:52] RETAINER**
Yeah.
**[20:52] THORFINN**
Let's go another way, Einar.
**[20:56] THORFINN**
Don't, Einar.
**[20:59] EINAR**
There's no reason for us to sneak around.
**[21:04] ISVAR**
Well, speak of the devil.
**[21:12] ISVAR**
What's wrong? Why the long faces?
**[21:16] THORFINN**
Restrain yourself, Einar.
Don't listen to them.
**[21:28] ISVAR**
What's your problem? Move.
**[21:32] EINAR**
You're the one who ravaged
our farm, aren't you?
**[21:36] ISVAR**
What? Farm?
**[21:39] ISVAR**
I have no idea what you're talking about.
**[21:44] THORFINN**
Einar!
**[21:46] ISVAR**
I see, I see. So your farm was ravaged.
**[21:50] ISVAR**
I'm sorry to hear that.
**[21:53] ISVAR**
But don't let it get you down.
**[21:59] ISVAR**
It was wheat grown by *slaves*.
**[22:02] ISVAR**
It would've been too putrid
for anyone to eat.
**[22:35] THORFINN**
Crap...
**[22:41] EINAR**
His jaw looks broken.
**[22:47] EINAR**
What a punch!
**[22:49] CHUBBY**
You brat!
**[22:51] BRAIDS**
How dare you, slave! I'll kill you!
**[22:57] EINAR**
Slave this, slave that... Shut up already!
**[23:00] EINAR**
Quit crying and come at me.
**[23:02] THORFINN**
Y-You idiot, don't—
**[23:07] EINAR**
Thorfinn.
**[23:07] EINAR**
Are you okay?
**[23:10] EINAR**
Let go, damn it.
**[23:18] EINAR**
Damn you!
**[23:19] THORFINN**
D-Don't...
**[23:28] THORFINN**
*H-Huh?*
**[23:31] THORFINN**
*What are you...*
**[23:47] THORFINN**
*F-Father?*
**[23:52] THORFINN**
*He's telling me something...*
**[23:59] THORFINN**
*It's no use.*
**[24:01] THORFINN**
*I'm... falling...*

**[00:42] THORFINN**
Huh?
**[01:03] THORFINN**
Oh, whew.
**[01:07] THORFINN**
It was just a dream.
**[01:10] THORFINN**
Boy, that was scary.
**[01:13] THORFINN**
Father had been killed.
**[01:16] THORFINN**
I wandered across battlefields
fighting men who were like monsters.
**[01:22] THORFINN**
And in the end, I became a slave.
**[01:32] THORFINN**
I'm glad I'm here.
**[01:42] THORFINN**
*It's so peaceful.*
**[01:59] BRAIDS**
What's with this guy?
**[02:02] TOWEL**
H-He's so persistent.
**[02:04] BRAIDS**
Stay down already!
**[02:12] TOWEL**
Damn it.
**[02:17] EINAR**
What's wrong? I'll keep fighting.
**[02:23] EINAR**
Let's find out if we're beneath you or not!
**[02:39] TOWEL**
I don't have time for this.
**[02:42] TOWEL**
Aw, man. I've had enough.
**[02:49] TOWEL**
You'd better prepare yourselves.
**[02:52] TOWEL**
You slaves have got some serious punishment
waiting for you after going this wild.
**[03:10] EINAR**
We won.

Father!
**[05:16] THORFINN**
Listen to this.
**[05:18] THORFINN**
I just had a crazy dream.
**[05:22] THORFINN**
A bunch of arrows came flying, and you—
**[05:25] THORS**
I smell blood.
**[05:28] THORFINN**
Huh?
**[05:31] THORS**
Who did you kill...
**[05:35] THORS**
with that knife?
**[05:39] THORFINN**
What?
**[06:23] THORS**
It was to protect you.
**[06:28] THORS**
That strength was for protecting you.
**[06:34] THORS**
I'm sorry, Thorfinn.
**[06:38] THORS**
I still had things to tell you.
**[06:43] THORS**
There was still so much
I needed to teach you.
**[06:51] THORFINN**
No. Father...
**[06:57] THORFINN**
I... This is...
**[07:01] THORS**
I'm sorry...
**[07:02] THORFINN**
I did this!
**[07:05] THORS**
...for leaving you alone.
**[07:08] THORFINN**
Father, wait! Wait! Father!
**[07:16] THORS**
You understand now.
**[07:21] THORS**
You don't have any enemies.
**[07:24] THORS**
Nobody has any enemies.
**[07:45] THORS**
There's no one who it's okay to hurt.
**[07:52] THORS**
There never was.
**[09:20] THORFINN**
What is this place? Valhalla?
**[10:00] THORFINN**
They're laughing...
**[10:26] THORFINN**
Bjorn?
**[10:40] ASKELADD**
Still stuck up there, huh, Thorfinn?
**[10:56] ASKELADD**
Hey. It's been a while.
**[11:12] THORFINN**
Askeladd...
**[11:17] ASKELADD**
You never learn, do you?
**[11:20] ASKELADD**
You're *already* back here again?
**[11:27] THORFINN**
Is this Valhalla?
**[11:34] ASKELADD**
What? Valhalla?
**[11:43] ASKELADD**
You think this is the afterlife?
**[11:46] ASKELADD**
You can't be serious.
**[11:49] ASKELADD**
The afterlife is a much nicer place than this.
**[11:53] ASKELADD**
Look carefully.
**[11:56] ASKELADD**
This place is no different
from the world of the living.
**[12:02] ASKELADD**
It's where all the shit gets dumped...
**[12:07] ASKELADD**
Where *all* warriors wind up.
**[12:13] ASKELADD**
It's the purest form of war.
**[12:19] ASKELADD**
There is no victory. There is no end.
**[12:24] ASKELADD**
In this place, everyone besides
yourself is your enemy.
**[12:32] THORFINN**
Everyone... is your enemy...
**[12:40] ASKELADD**
Do you remember, Thorfinn?
**[12:43] ASKELADD**
You used to live here with us.
**[12:49] ASKELADD**
But for better or for worse, you became empty.
**[13:03] ASKELADD**
That's why you were able
to escape this place.
**[13:10] ASKELADD**
I shouldn't be saying this as the man
who dragged you here, but you're lucky.
**[13:17] ASKELADD**
Not many men ever manage to escape.
**[13:24] ASKELADD**
Just look at Bjorn.
**[13:31] ASKELADD**
You were once filled with the idea of being
a warrior, but then you were emptied out.
**[13:40] ASKELADD**
What's inside you now?
**[13:48] THORFINN**
I'm... still a warrior.
**[13:57] THORFINN**
I struck someone in a fit of rage.
**[14:00] THORFINN**
That's why I'm back here.
**[14:06] THORFINN**
I still reside in this place.
**[14:10] THORFINN**
My hands are about to give out, too.
**[14:16] THORFINN**
I'm pathetic. I never grow.
**[14:25] ASKELADD**
Me, me, me.
**[14:28] ASKELADD**
Good grief. A little soul-searching is all well
and good, but try to keep your eyes open.
**[14:38] ASKELADD**
Something terrifying's
right beneath your feet.
**[14:59] ASKELADD**
You're kicking them? How cruel.
**[15:04] ASKELADD**
Shouldn't you lend an ear to their complaints?
**[15:10] THORFINN**
Complaints?
**[15:12] ASKELADD**
That's right. Look closely.
**[15:15] ASKELADD**
I'm sure you recognize some of those faces.
**[15:18] ASKELADD**
They're all of the people you killed.
**[15:27] THORFINN**
What?
**[15:36] THORFINN**
I...
**[16:11] THORFINN**
You... All of you...
**[16:18] THORFINN**
I don't know who you are
or where you're from.
**[16:24] THORFINN**
I can't remember where or when I killed you.
**[17:01] THORFINN**
I'm sorry.
**[17:23] ASKELADD**
Unbelievable. What an uncouth lot.
**[17:34] ASKELADD**
Come on! You don't have time to cry.
**[17:38] ASKELADD**
You don't want to fall back
down here, do you?
**[17:44] ASKELADD**
Even if they're hanging off you, keep climbing!
**[17:47] ASKELADD**
Climb!
**[17:54] ASKELADD**
That's your battle.
**[18:06] ASKELADD**
Go!
**[18:09] ASKELADD**
Take the people you killed with you!
**[18:13] ASKELADD**
Fight your true battle!
**[18:16] ASKELADD**
Become a *true* warrior,
**[18:19] ASKELADD**
Thorfinn!
**[19:07] THORFINN**
A dream?
**[19:13] THORFINN**
A true...
**[19:31] THORFINN**
Einar. Einar!
**[19:34] THORFINN**
Hey! Are you alive?
**[19:44] EINAR**
Yeah.
**[19:47] EINAR**
We won the fight.
**[19:59] EINAR**
Man, we've hit rock bottom.
**[20:03] EINAR**
We're drowning in debt, our wheat
has been ruined, and I'm a mess.
**[20:10] EINAR**
On top of that, we'll be punished
for getting into that fight.
**[20:17] EINAR**
But seeing you punch
that guy sure was satisfying.
**[20:27] EINAR**
Ow...
**[20:31] EINAR**
What's wrong? Are you in pain, too?
**[20:44] THORFINN**
Einar, I've used these hands
to kill so many people.
**[20:57] THORFINN**
People no different from your family...
**[21:02] THORFINN**
People whose names I didn't even know.
**[21:06] THORFINN**
People who I bore no grudge against.
**[21:19] THORFINN**
And today, I struck another person.
**[21:30] THORFINN**
But it ends now.
**[21:37] THORFINN**
I'll never hurt anyone again.
**[21:42] THORFINN**
As of today, I'm swearing off violence.
**[21:47] THORFINN**
I'm going to be reborn.
**[21:49] THORFINN**
I need to be reborn and
start atoning for what I've done.
**[22:13] THORFINN**
I'm going to fight my true battle.
**[22:22] EINAR**
I see. All right.
**[22:27] EINAR**
I don't really get it,
but I hear you loud and clear.
**[22:37] THORFINN**
*I'm going to be reborn.*
**[22:48] TOWEL**
They're not going to be punished?
That's ridiculous!
**[22:52] TOWEL**
Master, this matter concerns
order and discipline on the farm!
**[22:59] KETIL**
Pater found this on the
ravaged farm this morning.
**[23:08] KETIL**
By the way, Trygve,
where's that coat you always wear?
**[23:12] TRYGVE**
Huh? What? Uh...
**[23:15] KETIL**
The farm was ravaged by wild boars.
There was no fight.
**[23:20] KETIL**
That's the story we're going with. Got it?
**[23:28] PATER**
Thank you, master.
**[23:32] KETIL**
You're a strong man, Pater.
**[23:36] KETIL**
You're not the slightest bit afraid of being
ostracized by the people you work with?
**[23:41] PATER**
I've been through a lot.
**[23:43] PATER**
After all, I used to be a slave.
**[23:48] SVERKEL**
Loosen up or you'll wear yourself out.
**[23:51] SVERKEL**
Let the weight of the hoe do the work.
**[23:57] THORFINN**
Yes, sir.

Okay, here we go.
**[02:41] BOTH**
Ready, push!
**[02:58] BOTH**
Yes! That's the last one!
**[03:18] EINAR**
I don't believe it.
**[03:22] EINAR**
It really was possible.
**[03:24] EINAR**
Together, we turned an
entire forest into a farm.
**[03:28] THORFINN**
Yeah, I think it took more than three years.
**[03:33] EINAR**
If only all this land were ours.
**[03:38] THORFINN**
That's one thing a slave can't have.
**[03:44] THORFINN**
We worked hard. We're nearly there.
**[03:50] EINAR**
Yeah. The other day, Pater told me something.
**[03:55] EINAR**
We'll be able to buy our freedom with the
next harvest from this cleared land.
**[04:02] EINAR**
We'll get some change back, too.
**[04:07] THORFINN**
I see.
**[04:11] THORFINN**
Einar, what are you going to do
once you're a free man?
**[04:19] EINAR**
I don't know. Even if I went back to my homeland,
there's no family waiting for me.
**[04:25] EINAR**
And besides...
**[04:28] THORFINN**
You're worried about Arnheid.
**[04:31] EINAR**
Yeah, I feel awkward about it.
**[04:36] EINAR**
If only Arnheid could be free, too.
**[04:40] EINAR**
Then I'd feel better.
**[04:46] THORFINN**
The master has no intention
of letting her go.
**[04:54] EINAR**
What about you, Thorfinn?
**[04:57] EINAR**
Will you go back to Iceland?
**[05:01] THORFINN**
Yeah. I think so. Probably.
**[05:06] EINAR**
Seriously? You don't seem sure
about your plans.
**[05:10] THORFINN**
Neither do you.
**[05:16] EINAR**
Good grief. It's strange, isn't it?
**[05:21] EINAR**
Freedom's just around the corner,
and we're acting like this.
**[05:37] THORFINN**
There is something I'd like to try to do.
**[05:43] EINAR**
Really? What is it?
**[05:47] THORFINN**
Well, there's a lot I'm still not sure about.
**[05:57] THORFINN**
What do you think, Einar?
**[06:03] THORFINN**
Would it be possible to rid the
world of war and slavery?
**[06:25] EINAR**
Well... that would be like a dream.
**[06:37] KETIL**
Ah, you've finally felled the last tree.
**[06:42] KETIL**
Well done, both of you.
**[06:45] EINAR**
Master!
**[06:47] KETIL**
Well? Do you think you'll be able
to till the soil in time for planting?
**[06:51] EINAR**
Yes, probably, if we hurry.
**[06:57] KETIL**
I see, I see. All right.
Then I'll give you a little discount.
**[07:03] KETIL**
Once you're done sowing the seeds,
the two of you will be free.
**[07:09] KETIL**
You've worked hard, Thorfinn, Einar.
**[07:20] KETIL**
What? You don't seem that happy.
**[07:24] EINAR**
Huh? What?
**[07:26] EINAR**
No! Wait, no!
**[07:27] EINAR**
All right!
**[07:30] EINAR**
Thorfinn, we finally did it!
**[07:33] THORFINN**
Y-Yeah!
**[07:35] KETIL**
Wait, sorry. Don't celebrate yet.
**[07:39] BOTH**
What?
**[07:40] KETIL**
You'll have to wait until after I return.
**[07:44] EINAR**
You're going somewhere?
**[07:47] KETIL**
Yes. By the way,
have you seen the old master?
**[07:52] EINAR**
He hasn't been this way.
**[07:55] KETIL**
I see. Maybe he's on his farm.
**[08:00] KETIL**
Well, you'll do.
**[08:02] KETIL**
If you see him, give him this message.
**[08:06] KETIL**
Tell him I've gone to the palace
in Jelling to visit King Harald.
**[08:13] KETIL**
I'm sure I'll be back in time
for planting, though.
**[08:17] KETIL**
Make sure you till the soil by then.
**[08:20] BOTH**
Yes, sir.
**[08:23] EINAR**
Safe travels.
**[08:27] KETIL**
Oh, right.
**[08:30] KETIL**
How would you like to continue working
for me as my retainers once you're free?
**[08:37] KETIL**
I'd gladly welcome a couple of
hard workers like you.
**[08:42] KETIL**
Give it some thought.

Our horses will be ready soon.

I haven't been back home in a while.

I want to feel the breeze.
**[11:03] WULF**
Your Majesty.
**[11:07] WULF**
I am delighted to see you've
safely returned from England.
**[11:11] CANUTE**
Thank you. Wulf, how is my brother doing?
**[11:16] WULF**
My liege.
**[11:17] WULF**
King Harald is not well.
**[11:22] WULF**
His pain has worsened over the past month.
**[11:24] WULF**
He's no longer capable of speaking.
**[11:30] CANUTE**
I see. How much longer does he have?
**[11:34] WULF**
According to those treating him,
these next few days will be critical.
**[11:42] CANUTE**
Very well. Thank you for
watching over him in my place.
**[11:47] WULF**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[11:52] CHILD A**
Ouch.
**[11:53] CHILD B**
I won again.
**[11:54] CANUTE**
That ball game they're playing...
**[11:55] CHILD C**
Are you okay?
**[11:55] CHILD A**
Again.
**[11:56] CHILD B**
Don't hurt yourself.
**[11:57] CANUTE**
My brother was quite good at it
when we were children.
**[11:58] CHILD A**
Darn you.
**[12:05] CANUTE**
He occasionally played with me.
**[12:13] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
Harald, hit it again.
**[12:18] (Flashback) HARALD**
Okay. Watch the ball closely, Canute.
**[12:22] CANUTE**
Those within the palace
feuded amongst themselves
**[12:25] CANUTE**
over which of us would succeed our father,
**[12:29] CANUTE**
but my brother never paid
any heed to it himself.
**[12:35] (Flashback) HARALD**
Ready?
**[12:36] (Flashback) HARALD**
Here it comes.
**[12:43] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
Your Highness!
**[12:45] (Flashback) HARALD**
Ragnar...
**[12:55] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
I'm okay.
**[12:57] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
I don't believe it.
**[12:59] (Flashback) HARALD**
See? He's tougher than you think.
**[13:03] (Flashback) HARALD**
You're a little too overprotective,
you know. You should—
**[13:08] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
Impressive, Your Highness.
**[13:13] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
I knew you could do it.
**[13:15] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
Are you certain you're not hurt?
**[13:17] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
Yeah. Thanks, Ragnar.
**[13:21] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
But it's hard to move when
I'm wearing so many layers.
**[13:24] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
I'm hot, too. Can I take these off?
**[13:26] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
No.
**[13:29] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
A warrior must be properly equipped.
**[13:33] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
Are you listening, Your Highness?
**[13:35] RAGNAR**
Letting your guard down for even
a moment can prove fatal.
**[13:37] CANUTE**
He was a strong, kind man.
**[13:41] RAGNAR**
Even I once...
**[13:44] CANUTE**
My brother helped me often.
**[13:49] CANUTE**
I must thank him.
**[13:54] CHILD A**
Hup!
**[14:11] WULF**
Play somewhere else, children.
**[14:14] CHILD A**
Sorry.
**[14:23] CHILD A**
Don't hit it so hard, Asta.
**[14:25] ASTA**
Hmph. You're just slow.
**[14:26] WULF**
Unbelievable. Children are so carefree.
**[14:28] CHILD A**
What did you say?
**[14:31] ASTA**
Now you're mad.
**[14:31] WULF**
What is the matter, Your Majesty?
**[14:39] CANUTE**
It's nothing.
**[14:46] Narrator**
* Sweyn's sons inherited their own*
* respective territories from their father.*
**[14:54] Narrator**
*The older brother Harald inherited Denmark,*
**[14:57] Narrator**
* and the younger brother Canute*
* inherited England.*
**[15:01] Narrator**
*Their relationship was good.*
**[15:06] Narrator**
*During Canute's conquest of England,*
**[15:09] Narrator**
* his brother Harald directly supported him*
* by sending a fleet of ships.*
**[15:16] Narrator**
*However...*
**[15:19] Narrator**
* Shortly after Canute became*
* King of England, Harald fell ill.*
**[15:27] Narrator**
*Harald had no heirs.*
**[15:33] ESTRID**
Brother Canute!
**[15:35] ESTRID**
You really did come to Jelling.
**[15:39] CANUTE**
Address me as "Your Majesty," Estrid.
**[15:41] ESTRID**
Your visit is so sudden. I was surprised.
**[15:47] CANUTE**
It's good to see you again, King Harald.
**[15:56] ESTRID**
Brother Harald,
Brother Canute has come to visit you.
**[16:01] ESTRID**
Can you tell he's here?
**[16:04] CANUTE**
It's fine. You don't have to wake him.
**[16:07] CANUTE**
I'll be staying here a while.
**[16:09] CANUTE**
I'll speak to His Majesty
when he's feeling better.
**[16:15] HARALD**
Canute...
**[16:27] CANUTE**
King Harald, I am here.
**[16:32] CANUTE**
Please rest.
**[16:35] CANUTE**
You needn't worry about your kingdom.
**[16:43] HARALD**
I've been waiting for you.
**[16:49] HARALD**
Denmark...
**[16:54] HARALD**
Denmark is yours.
**[17:07] CANUTE**
Don't be absurd, King Harald.
**[17:11] CANUTE**
Get well soon so we can play ball again.
**[17:17] SWEYN**
You've got some guts, Canute.
**[17:21] SWEYN**
I'm impressed you can lie about that
like you don't know what's going on.
**[17:29] ESTRID**
Brother?
**[17:32] SWEYN**
You're visiting the man
you poisoned yourself?
**[17:36] SWEYN**
What a farce. What will you
accomplish by doing that?
**[17:45] SWEYN**
Harald was friendly to you.
**[17:49] SWEYN**
Why did you need to kill him?
**[17:53] SWEYN**
You could've ruled the world together.
**[17:58] SWEYN**
You didn't do it for the sake of
peace and prosperity.
**[18:03] SWEYN**
Ambition now rests within your heart.
**[18:08] SWEYN**
The ambition to rule as
king of all the North Sea.
**[18:17] SWEYN**
That is the curse. The crown's curse.
**[18:25] SWEYN**
*None* can escape it.
**[18:29] SWEYN**
By donning the two crowns
of Denmark and England,
**[18:38] SWEYN**
you will suffer twice as much as I did.
**[18:51] ESTRID**
Brother!
**[18:59] ESTRID**
What's wrong? You suddenly went into a daze.
**[19:03] ESTRID**
Have you fallen ill, too?
**[19:15] CANUTE**
I'm fine. I just felt a little dizzy.
**[19:23] WULF**
Prepare a bedchamber.
**[19:25] WULF**
His Majesty is tired from
his long voyage at sea.
**[19:58] CANUTE**
What is it?
**[20:00] MAID**
Lady Estrid instructed me
to bring you something to drink.
**[20:06] CANUTE**
Where did it come from?
**[20:08] MAID**
What? Where is it from?
**[20:13] CANUTE**
I don't need any. I'm not thirsty.
**[20:18] SWEYN**
You fear being poisoned
because you poison others.
**[20:24] SWEYN**
Isn't that right, Canute?
**[20:32] CANUTE**
It was rather mischievous of you to appear
in the middle of the afternoon, King Sweyn.
**[20:39] SWEYN**
If you can see me during the day,
then the curse must be growing stronger.
**[20:48] MAID**
Is he talking to himself?
**[20:50] CANUTE**
How long are you going to
keep standing there?
**[20:52] CANUTE**
I need nothing from you. Leave.
**[20:54] MAID**
Y-Yes, Your Majesty!
**[20:59] CANUTE**
Uniting the nation is
essential to creating a utopia.
**[21:04] CANUTE**
Two kings would eventually cause trouble.
**[21:08] CANUTE**
King Harald's death is necessary.
**[21:15] SWEYN**
I'm surprised.
**[21:18] SWEYN**
You've come to think
like a real king, Canute.
**[21:30] SWEYN**
What are you laughing about?
**[21:34] CANUTE**
King Sweyn, I once hated you
and wished for your death.
**[21:40] CANUTE**
But now?
**[21:43] CANUTE**
You're the only one I can speak to frankly.
**[21:51] CANUTE**
Let us be friends,
**[21:55] CANUTE**
as befits two cursed men.
**[22:12] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
Brother, again!
**[22:18] (Flashback) HARALD**
Okay.
**[22:21] (Flashback) HARALD**
Here it comes, Canute.
**[22:22] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
Okay.
**[22:24] (Flashback) SWEYN**
Harald.
**[22:29] (Flashback) SWEYN**
We're holding a war council. Join us.
**[22:33] (Flashback) HARALD**
Yes, Father.
**[22:37] (Flashback) HARALD**
Sorry, Canute.
**[22:39] (Flashback) HARALD**
We'll continue another time.
**[22:43] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
Thank you, Brother.
**[23:02] (Flashback) HARALD**
Grow up strong, Canute.
**[23:06] (Flashback) HARALD**
Stronger than me and father.
**[23:11] (Flashback) HARALD**
Got it?
**[23:15] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
Yes.
**[23:37] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
Come, Your Highness.
I'll be your next opponent.
**[23:41] (Flashback) YOUNG CANUTE**
What? Can you even play, Ragnar?
**[23:43] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
How dare you.
**[23:45] (Flashback) RAGNAR**
I was once feared as Gullinbursti of the Lake,
and for seven consecutive years...
**[24:01] CANUTE**
Is this all there is to it?
**[24:05] CANUTE**
This is nothing.

***SIGN*** Kings and Swords
**[00:25] MAID**
Yup, they're going at it.
**[00:28] MAID**
Over here, Your Highness.
It's His Majesty and Wulf.
**[00:34] ESTRID**
You're right.
**[00:36] ESTRID**
I can't believe my brother's...
**[01:10] SOLDIER B**
He actually dodged that.
**[01:12] SOLDIER C**
I'm impressed. His Majesty moves well
for someone so heavily armed.
**[01:18] ESTRID**
Aren't those real swords?
**[01:21] MAID**
Probably, yes.
**[01:24] ESTRID**
Can this really be considered practice?
**[01:26] ESTRID**
If either gets hit, they'll be badly hurt.
**[01:29] GUNNAR**
Ah, I see he's making quite the effort.
**[01:32] ESTRID**
Gunnar.
**[01:33] GUNNAR**
Princess Estrid, how do you do?
**[01:37] ESTRID**
Terribly! I'm so frightened,
I'm on pins and needles.
**[01:44] GUNNAR**
Don't worry. Wulf is a skilled swordsman.
**[01:48] GUNNAR**
He's surely holding back so as
not to seriously injure His Majesty.
**[01:54] ESTRID**
It doesn't look that way to me.
**[01:58] ESTRID**
I can't believe this.
**[02:00] ESTRID**
My brother used to hate
even touching swords.
**[02:05] GUNNAR**
His Majesty's royal blood has
awakened in England.
**[02:10] GUNNAR**
It's a very good thing.
**[02:13] GUNNAR**
Above all else, a king must be strong.
**[02:17] GUNNAR**
After all, Norse men
don't listen to weaklings.
**[02:27] ESTRID**
But my brother...
**[02:30] ESTRID**
seems like he's in a lot of pain.
**[02:45] WULF**
Retreating when you're tired
is a bad habit of yours.
**[02:48] WULF**
Retreating will draw out the fight.
**[02:51] WULF**
A king fights by advancing and
cutting his way through his enemies.
**[02:56] WULF**
Both your enemies and subjects
are watching to see how you fight.
**[03:09] CANUTE**
Estrid is watching as well.
**[03:13] CANUTE**
I'm sure you've noticed.
**[03:16] CANUTE**
I see. That must be why you started
attacking more aggressively.
**[03:23] WULF**
There... There you go again!
**[03:25] WULF**
I'm not falling for that.
**[03:29] CANUTE**
Forget what I said.
Just a slip of the tongue.
**[03:31] CANUTE**
Besides, she seems lost in
conversation with the man beside her.
**[03:52] WULF**
I... concede.
**[04:00] SOLDIER**
Nicely done, Your Majesty.
**[04:05] SOLDIER D**
I'm amazed.
**[04:07] SOLDIER D**
He may have only won one in five bouts,
but he made Wulf admit defeat.
**[04:11] SOLDIER E**
Didn't Wulf look away at the end?
**[04:21] WULF**
Your Majesty, I've told you that
you mustn't throw your sword.
**[04:26] GUNNAR**
Your Majesty, that was an impressive fight.
**[04:31] CANUTE**
What do you want, Gunnar?
**[04:33] GUNNAR**
I've finished preparing the documents about
the matter you asked me to investigate.
**[04:37] GUNNAR**
We can review them in your room later.
**[04:46] GUNNAR**
Anyway, there aren't too many wealthy men.
**[04:53] GUNNAR**
Even if we were to squeeze
any of the men listed,
**[04:56] GUNNAR**
we'd get at most 3,000 pounds a year.
**[04:59] GUNNAR**
Besides that, our only option is to
raise taxes on the overall population.
**[05:06] GUNNAR**
Ah, I'd recommend that one.
**[05:10] GUNNAR**
Ketil, son of Sverkel.
**[05:12] GUNNAR**
He's a wealthy farmer who owns
a large swath of land in the south.
**[05:16] CANUTE**
I don't see the families'
military forces listed here.
**[05:19] GUNNAR**
Yes, but without visiting them
in person, it's hard to say.
**[05:26] CANUTE**
We need those numbers.
Look into it and report back to me.
**[05:31] GUNNAR**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[05:34] GUNNAR**
Either way, we'd be
raising taxes significantly,
**[05:40] GUNNAR**
right after you've been
crowned King of Denmark.
**[05:43] GUNNAR**
I'm concerned there will be
backlash from the people of Denmark.
**[05:48] CANUTE**
Part of governing is making
sure that doesn't happen.
**[05:52] CANUTE**
We have options.
**[05:57] NArrator**
* After being crowned King of England,*
* Canute faced an urgent problem:*
**[06:04] NArrator**
*securing a new source of funds.*
**[06:08] NArrator**
*Even after conquering England,*
**[06:11] NArrator**
* Canute kept a Danish force directly*
* under his control stationed there.*
**[06:16] NArrator**
* But the cost of maintaining such a force*
* was being paid with English taxes,*
**[06:23] NArrator**
* which contributed to the*
* discontent of the English.*
**[06:28] NArrator**
* Unless he could squeeze funds*
* from Denmark, his other territory,*
**[06:35] NArrator**
* he would be forced to*
* downsize his stationed army.*
**[06:40] GUNNAR**
You said we have options,
but what are they exactly?
**[06:44] CANUTE**
Bringing more land under our control.
**[06:47] GUNNAR**
By developing it?
**[06:49] GUNNAR**
But it would take some time
for that to yield a profit.
**[06:53] CANUTE**
We'll acquire more farmland
without developing virgin land.
**[06:59] GUNNAR**
You mean... by requisitioning land?
**[07:02] GUNNAR**
Your Majesty, surely
you're not considering that?
**[07:06] CANUTE**
We need the money.
**[07:08] CANUTE**
We've no choice but to be somewhat
heavy-handed in our approach.
**[07:11] CANUTE**
It's better than sowing discontent
among the people by raising taxes.
**[07:17] CANUTE**
If you've got a better suggestion,
I'm all ears.
**[07:22] GUNNAR**
Well... what about drawing down the army?
**[07:29] CANUTE**
That's out of the question.
**[07:31] CANUTE**
I'm their conqueror and a Dane.
The English will never look favorably upon me.
**[07:38] CANUTE**
An army under my direct control is
what allows me to govern the region.
**[07:45] CANUTE**
Kings are like swords.
**[07:47] CANUTE**
What can a king without military might
accomplish in this world?
**[09:30] KETIL**
What?
**[09:32] KETIL**
King Harald has passed away?
**[09:36] THORGIL**
A week ago. You're too late, Dad.
**[09:41] KETIL**
But... Then by the time
I left the farm, he was already....
**[09:46] THORGIL**
That's exactly what it means.
**[09:50] KETIL**
I had no idea he was in such poor health.
**[09:58] KETIL**
I don't believe it.
**[10:00] KETIL**
I even brought him a mountain of gifts.
**[10:04] THORGIL**
Enough to fill three knerrir, huh?
**[10:08] THORGIL**
What a lavish offering.
**[10:17] KETIL**
Wait a minute.
**[10:18] KETIL**
Thorgil, if you came to meet me,
**[10:24] KETIL**
does that mean His Majesty Canute
is here as well?
**[10:28] THORGIL**
Well, yeah. I do serve him
directly as his guard.
**[10:32] THORGIL**
Currently he's acting as the king.
He's at the palace.
**[10:36] KETIL**
I see. That's my silver lining, then.
**[10:40] KETIL**
I've lost King Harald's backing.
**[10:44] KETIL**
I must build a good relationship
with the next King of Denmark.
**[10:51] KETIL**
Could you arrange a meeting
between me and His Majesty?
**[10:56] THORGIL**
You're a tough old man.
**[10:58] THORGIL**
All right. I'll make something happen.
**[11:00] KETIL**
I'm counting on it.
**[11:03] KETIL**
Olmar! Olmar!
**[11:06] KETIL**
Hey, where did Olmar go?
**[11:09] SAILOR**
The young master headed off into town alone.
**[11:13] KETIL**
And you let him go?
**[11:15] KETIL**
I told you not to take your eyes off of him.
**[11:17] THORGIL**
Now, now, Dad.
**[11:20] THORGIL**
He's 20 years old. He's not a child.
**[11:23] KETIL**
He *is* a child.
**[11:25] KETIL**
That idiot son of mine has never grown up.
**[11:30] KETIL**
You watch what happens
while he's town alone.
**[11:33] KETIL**
By now, he's surely bumped into someone
**[11:36] KETIL**
and gotten into a fight over
who should apologize to whom.
**[11:41] OLMAR**
You're the one who bumped into me.
**[11:45] OLMAR**
Don't screw with me.
You should be apologizing to me.
**[11:50] BUG-EYES**
What was that?
**[11:53] BUG-EYES**
What are you talking about?
**[11:56] BUG-EYES**
What are you gonna do about this?
**[11:57] BUG-EYES**
I was going to trade this cloth.
**[11:59] OLMAR**
That's not my problem.
**[12:02] OLMAR**
Don't think you can use this as an excuse
to force me to buy it off of you.
**[12:05] MOB**
What's going on?
**[12:06] BUG-EYES**
What the hell? Don't insult me.
**[12:07] MOB**
It's a fight.
**[12:09] BUG-EYES**
I do expect to be compensated, though.
**[12:12] OLMAR**
Now you've shown your true colors.
**[12:14] OLMAR**
That's what you intended from the start,
isn't it? You're just a sleazy swindler.
**[12:19] OLMAR**
Ugh! So disgusting.
**[12:20] BUG-EYES**
You bastard...
**[12:22] BUG-EYES**
How does someone grow up
to be an asshole like you?
**[12:26] BUG-EYES**
I'm an honest businessman, just like my dad.
**[12:31] BUG-EYES**
I won't allow you to continue to insult me.
**[12:33] OLMAR**
What are you gonna do about it, huh?
**[12:36] OLMAR**
You wanna go, huh? I'm ready to go anytime,
**[12:40] OLMAR**
you clumsy oaf.
**[12:43] BUG-EYES**
Now I'm pissed off, you ignoramus!
**[12:53] MOB**
He drew his sword.
**[12:58] OLMAR**
What's wrong, you oaf? Bring it on.
**[13:02] OLMAR**
Are you scared?
**[13:04] BUG-EYES**
Th-This isn't fair.
**[13:07] OLMAR**
Not fair? When men fight, it's to the death.
**[13:16] OLMAR**
If you're walking around unarmed,
**[13:20] OLMAR**
then it just means
you're not a real Norseman.
**[13:28] KETIL**
Then let me ask you this:
**[13:30] KETIL**
who do you think bought you that?
**[13:35] KETIL**
You idiot son of mine!
**[13:38] KETIL**
Why are you always starting fights?
**[13:41] OLMAR**
Wh-What the hell is your problem, Dad?
**[13:43] OLMAR**
Stay out of my fight!
**[13:48] KETIL**
I'm sorry.
**[13:51] KETIL**
Allow me to compensate you for the cloth.
**[13:53] KETIL**
Is this enough?
**[13:56] BUG-EYES**
Whoa...
**[13:58] BUG-EYES**
W-Well, in that case,
I've got no problem with you.
**[14:03] LEIF**
Hold it, Bug-Eyes.
**[14:06] LEIF**
Give him his change.
**[14:09] BUG-EYES**
Oh, Dad, you were watching?
**[14:13] LEIF**
I saw the whole thing.
**[14:14] LEIF**
I was watching to see how you'd
settle the fight, but I'm disappointed.
**[14:20] LEIF**
You still can't be trusted with big deals.
**[14:24] BUG-EYES**
Sorry.
**[14:27] LEIF**
Allow me to apologize for my son.
**[14:30] LEIF**
My name is Leif Ericson.
**[14:43] KETIL**
So he's your adopted son?
**[14:46] LEIF**
Yes, something like that.
**[14:49] LEIF**
It was a stroke of fate
that brought him to me.
**[14:53] LEIF**
Come on, introduce yourself.
**[14:56] BUG-EYES**
My name is Thorfinn. Thank you for earlier.
**[14:59] BUG-EYES**
But call me Bug-Eyes.
That's what everyone calls me.
**[15:03] KETIL**
Thorfinn...
**[15:05] KETIL**
Oh, excuse me.
**[15:07] KETIL**
One of my people goes by the same name.
**[15:12] KETIL**
He's quiet and hardworking.
**[15:15] KETIL**
Perhaps I should've
named this boy Thorfinn as well.
**[15:20] LEIF**
You've got a rather spirited boy there.
**[15:29] LEIF**
Ketil, forgive me for asking, but...
**[15:34] LEIF**
That Thorfinn...
**[15:36] LEIF**
Is he by any chance a slave?
**[15:40] KETIL**
What?
**[15:41] KETIL**
Yes, I'm surprised you figured that out.
**[15:45] KETIL**
I didn't mention his status
because I didn't want to offend you.
**[15:51] LEIF**
Is he a Nord with blond hair and brown eyes?
**[15:56] LEIF**
About the same age as this boy?
**[15:59] KETIL**
I'm surprised. It's exactly as you say.
**[16:03] KETIL**
He's shorter than him, though.
**[16:06] BUG-EYES**
This again, Dad?
**[16:08] LEIF**
Is he from Iceland and a former warrior?
**[16:13] KETIL**
Now, what did he say?
**[16:17] KETIL**
I remember seeing numerous scars
clearly left by blades all over his body...
**[16:22] BUG-EYES**
Don't get your hopes up.
**[16:24] BUG-EYES**
It's probably just like
what happened with me.
**[16:27] LEIF**
I know. I know that, but he matches
the description so far.
**[16:33] KETIL**
You seem very interested in
him for some reason, Leif.
**[16:36] KETIL**
Would you be willing to tell me about it?
**[16:40] LEIF**
Yes.
**[16:43] LEIF**
I've been looking for him.
**[16:46] LEIF**
He's my friend's son, who was enslaved.
**[16:50] LEIF**
It's been years now.
**[16:55] MORS**
What?
**[16:57] MORS**
W-We're going *where,* Pops?
**[16:59] LEIF**
I was just thinking
we could take a little detour
**[17:03] LEIF**
and make a quick stop at Ketil's farm.
**[17:07] LEIF**
It's not that far away, really.
**[17:10] LEIF**
Ketil came here by boat, too.
**[17:13] LEIF**
He said we could follow him back.
**[17:16] MORS**
How far is it from here?
**[17:19] LEIF**
He said with favorable winds,
it takes about five days.
**[17:22] MORS**
Then we'd lose more than ten days.
**[17:25] MORS**
That's not what you call a little detour.
**[17:27] LEIF**
Listen to me, Mors.
**[17:29] LEIF**
This Thorfinn is different.
**[17:32] LEIF**
I think it's really him this time.
**[17:34] MORS**
It's already fall, Pops.
**[17:36] MORS**
If we don't get back soon,
the Greenland Sea will freeze over.
**[17:40] MORS**
What are we gonna do if the winds and tides
don't favor us after a ten-day delay?
**[17:47] MORS**
Sorry, but I can't go along
with you this time.
**[17:50] MORS**
You gotta understand that.
**[17:59] KETIL**
I'm surprised I'm getting an
audience with His Majesty
**[18:02] KETIL**
after requesting one just yesterday.
**[18:06] KETIL**
You must have a lot of influence, Thorgil.
I've changed my mind about you.
**[18:11] THORGIL**
Huh? Oh...
**[18:14] THORGIL**
Honestly, I'm surprised, too.
**[18:17] THORGIL**
He's a busy man.
**[18:20] THORGIL**
Maybe he liked your gifts.
**[18:23] KETIL**
Yes, I'm sure he did.
**[18:26] KETIL**
Our crops are the best and
most plentiful in the south.
**[18:31] KETIL**
He only stands to gain
from making a deal with us.
**[18:37] GUARD A**
Ketil and family, you may enter.
**[18:41] KETIL**
Let's go.
**[18:43] KETIL**
Olmar...
**[18:45] KETIL**
Be polite.
**[18:58] CANUTE**
Ketil, I saw your gifts as well.
**[19:02] CANUTE**
They are all high quality. I accept them.
**[19:05] KETIL**
Y-Yes, Your Majesty. I'm honored.
**[19:10] CANUTE**
Were all those crops grown on your land?
**[19:15] KETIL**
Yes, they were.
**[19:18] KETIL**
The late King Harald was also
pleased by my family's products.
**[19:25] CANUTE**
I have no intention of unnecessarily changing
the way my father and brother did things.
**[19:30] CANUTE**
Don't worry.
**[19:32] CANUTE**
Strong farmers like you
are the treasure of Denmark.
**[19:37] CANUTE**
You should continue serving as the foundation
of our nation's strength with pride.
**[19:45] KETIL**
I appreciate your words, Your Majesty.
**[19:47] KETIL**
I hope to have the throne's
continued support.
**[20:00] GUNNAR**
You are in the presence of the king. Kneel.
**[20:04] KETIL**
What are you doing?
**[20:06] KETIL**
I'm t-terribly sorry for—
**[20:08] OLMAR**
Your Majesty, I have a request!
**[20:12] OLMAR**
Please allow me to join your forces.
**[20:15] OLMAR**
Ideally, serving as your guard
alongside my brother.
**[20:20] OLMAR**
I've trained a lot.
I promise I'll be useful to you.
**[20:24] OLMAR**
I'd even be willing to
demonstrate my skills for you—
**[20:26] KETIL**
Enough, you idiot!
**[20:28] KETIL**
Who draws a sword in the presence of a king?
**[20:30] OLMAR**
Let go of me, Dad!
**[20:33] OLMAR**
I wanna fight!
**[20:35] KETIL**
You've really outdone
yourself today, you idiot!
**[20:37] GUNNAR**
Well, well...
**[20:39] OLMAR**
Shut up, Dad!
**[20:40] GUNNAR**
What shall we do, Your Majesty?
**[20:44] CANUTE**
It's fine, Ketil.
Let's see how he handles a sword.
**[20:52] OLMAR**
What?
**[20:53] THORGIL**
Huh?
**[21:01] CANUTE**
That pig is the soldiers' dinner.
**[21:05] CANUTE**
Imagine it is a man and cleave it.
**[21:08] OLMAR**
Y-Yes, Your Majesty.
I'll take a whack at it, then.
**[21:31] SOLDIER**
Hey, what's going on?
**[21:33] SOLDIER**
What's happening?
**[21:35] SOLDIER**
I heard screaming.
**[21:36] SOLDIER**
What's all this screaming?
**[21:50] CANUTE**
Enough. That's enough. I understand.
**[21:58] OLMAR**
Bones are... so hard...
**[22:04] CANUTE**
Olmar, was it?
**[22:06] CANUTE**
I'll consult with the captain
regarding your request to join my guard
**[22:10] CANUTE**
and notify you of my decision tomorrow.
**[22:12] CANUTE**
Stay in town near the castle until then.
**[22:23] THORGIL**
Aw, man.
**[22:27] THORGIL**
You really screwed the pooch
this time, Olmar.
**[22:29] THORGIL**
The other soldiers will be
teasing me about this for a while.
**[22:36] THORGIL**
Unbelievable. The more cowardly a man is,
the less predictable his behavior.
**[22:43] THORGIL**
In any case, what's done is done.
**[22:47] THORGIL**
Be careful not to do anything to
embarrass our family further.
**[22:58] WULF**
Men like him are common.
**[23:01] WULF**
All pride, no skill.
**[23:04] WULF**
And no understanding
of their own abilities.
**[23:08] WULF**
Men like him are the first
to die on the battlefield.
**[23:11] WULF**
I wouldn't want him serving under me.
**[23:14] CANUTE**
I understand your thoughts
as Captain of the Guard.
**[23:19] CANUTE**
Let me hear your thoughts
from another perspective.
**[23:26] WULF**
That young man could be incredibly useful.
**[23:30] CANUTE**
You're right. He could be useful to us.
**[23:33] CANUTE**
He's a typical young Nord.
A foolish one, at that.
**[23:38] CANUTE**
He'd surely act as we expect him to.
**[23:42] GUNNAR**
Shall we proceed with the plan, then?
**[23:45] CANUTE**
Yes. The coronation hasn't happened yet,
**[23:49] CANUTE**
but we shouldn't let
this opportunity pass us by.
**[23:55] CANUTE**
It's so the people can live in peace.
I feel for them, but they must pay the price.
**[24:04] CANUTE**
Ketil's farm will be
the first we requisition.

**[00:25] BRODD**
Who is he? Where?
**[00:28] BRODD**
Which one? That guy?
***SIGN*** For Lost Love
***SIGN*** For Lost Love
**[00:31] BRODD**
Oh, him? The one lying
facedown on the table?
**[00:35] HOODED MAN**
That's right. That youngster.
**[00:38] BRODD**
Okay, okay. I see.
**[00:41] HELM**
He looks like someone who'd do that.
**[00:44] LONG HAIR**
He's the guy who lost to a pig.
**[00:48] HELM**
Guys like him really do exist.
**[00:50] BRODD**
I'm amazed he had the balls to say
he wanted to join the king's guard.
**[00:57] BRODD**
So, what did you want?
**[00:58] BRODD**
All we have to do is
tell him he's been rejected?
**[01:02] HOODED MAN**
That's right. All you need to do
is convey the message.
**[01:06] BRODD**
Fine, I guess.
**[01:09] BRODD**
Aw, damn.
**[01:10] BRODD**
I'm not sure I can keep myself
from doing more.
**[01:15] HOODED MAN**
You want to mock him?
**[01:17] BRODD**
I mean, just look at his stupid face.
**[01:23] HOODED MAN**
Go on. I'll buy you drinks later.
**[01:26] ALL**
Okay.
**[01:28] ALL**
Quit laughing so much.
**[01:30] ALL**
Yeah, but...
**[01:48] HOODED MAN**
You lot look just as stupid as he does.
**[03:32] BRODD**
Olmar?
**[03:35] BRODD**
Olmar, do you have a minute?
**[03:44] BRODD**
My name is Brodd.
**[03:46] BRODD**
I'm a member of the king's guard.
**[03:51] OLMAR**
And?
**[03:52] BRODD**
I've brought a message from Wulf,
captain of His Majesty's guard.
**[03:58] OLMAR**
You're here to tell me I've been rejected.
**[04:01] BRODD**
Now, now. I'm here on a job.
**[04:04] BRODD**
Allow me to deliver my message.
**[04:10] BRODD**
Olmar, regarding your request
to join the king's guard,
**[04:17] BRODD**
the captain spoke highly
of your determination
**[04:20] BRODD**
to offer your life in service of His Majesty.
**[04:26] BRODD**
However, upon seeing your skill with a sword,
**[04:32] BRODD**
he remarked that your skills
"need improvement."
**[04:38] BRODD**
Therefore, we regret to inform you that...
**[04:44] BRODD**
Regret to inform you that...
**[04:57] BRODD**
Th-There's nothing regrettable about it.
You lost to a pig!
**[05:04] HELM**
Don't say that.
**[05:06] HAT**
I-I can't breathe.
**[05:09] BRODD**
I heard... I heard you
couldn't even cut a *pig*.
**[05:13] BRODD**
Why not? Was the pig wearing
chain mail? A hauberk perhaps?
**[05:19] BRODD**
Oh, but on a pig,
I guess you'd call it a *hog*berk.
**[05:31] BRODD**
Forgive me. I shouldn't laugh.
**[05:36] BRODD**
He failed to get a job.
**[05:39] BRODD**
Do you guys know anyone who's hiring?
**[05:43] HELM**
Come to think of it,
the castle was looking for a new cook.
**[05:47] HAT**
That won't work. He can't chop up pigs!
**[06:00] BRODD**
I'm dying!
**[06:16] OLMAR**
A warrior answers insults with his sword!
**[06:20] OLMAR**
Draw your weapon!
**[06:28] HAT**
But you couldn't even cut a pig.
**[06:31] HELM**
I'm dying! I'm gonna die laughing!
**[06:37] BRODD**
Whoa!
**[06:38] BRODD**
What's your problem?
**[06:40] BRODD**
You'll hurt someone doing that, you weakling.
**[06:50] CHILD**
Come on, let's go.
**[06:51] CHILD**
Wait for me.
**[06:52] MOB**
It's a fight!
**[06:53] MOB**
There's a five-on-one
happening by the stalls!
**[06:55] MOB**
They've got swords!
**[06:57] MOB**
Someone's gonna bleed!
**[07:01] MOB A**
Get him!
**[07:01] MOB B**
Kill him!
**[07:03] MOB C**
You've got this, young one!
**[07:05] BRODD**
I'll take him on myself.
**[07:07] BRODD**
We'd dishonor ourselves as warriors if we
ganged up on a guy who can't even cut a pig.
**[07:12] HELM**
You'd better not lose.
**[07:15] BRODD**
Look at you, all excited to fight.
**[07:20] BRODD**
I'll help you train, Olmar.
**[07:30] BRODD**
Come on, stand up. You can do it.
**[07:42] HOODED MAN**
He's as pathetic as I was told.
**[08:06] THORGIL**
Stand up, Olmar.
**[08:09] THORGIL**
Don't lie on the ground during a duel.
**[08:18] OLMAR**
Thorgil...
**[08:21] OLMAR**
Thorgil, they... they humiliated me.
**[08:26] THORGIL**
I know. I can see that.
**[08:28] THORGIL**
Get back on your feet and kill him.
**[08:41] THORGIL**
Stand up.
**[08:50] THORGIL**
Stand up, Olmar!
**[09:00] OLMAR**
Th-Thorgil, I...
**[09:04] THORGIL**
Listen to me, Olmar.
**[09:06] THORGIL**
There are only two options for a
warrior who has been insulted.
**[09:10] THORGIL**
Kill or die.
**[09:13] THORGIL**
If you can't kill him, then you'll die here.
**[09:17] THORGIL**
I won't allow you to go on living
without addressing this insult.
**[09:24] THORGIL**
Fight and become a man.
**[09:27] THORGIL**
Today is the day.
**[09:30] OLMAR**
Thor...
**[09:31] THORGIL**
Go on.
**[09:36] BRODD**
What the hell was that?
**[09:39] THORGIL**
Imagine it, Olmar.
**[09:41] THORGIL**
Imagine the moment you
cut off your enemy's head.
**[09:44] OLMAR**
Y-Yeah...
**[09:47] THORGIL**
Let me hear you. Say it from your stomach.
**[09:50] OLMAR**
Yeah.
**[09:51] THORGIL**
Louder.
**[09:52] OLMAR**
Yeah!
**[09:54] THORGIL**
Imagine it.
**[09:55] THORGIL**
Imagine your enemy crying with remorse in a
pool of blood with his guts strewn about him.
**[10:00] OLMAR**
Yeah!
**[10:01] THORGIL**
Show some spirit, Olmar!
**[10:04] OLMAR**
Yeah!
**[10:05] THORGIL**
Kill the bastard! Kill him!
**[10:08] OLMAR**
Yeah!
**[10:08] THORGIL**
Go!
**[10:14] BRODD**
Uh-oh. Provoke him, and all of
a sudden, he's raring to go.
**[10:23] BRODD**
The time for practice is over.
**[11:03] HELM**
Seriously?
**[11:06] LONG HAIR**
Hey!
**[11:07] HELM**
You bastard!
**[11:09] HELM**
Don't let him escape alive.
**[11:10] HELM**
We'll reclaim our honor here and now.
**[11:13] BOTH**
Yeah.
**[11:15] THORGIL**
Well done, Olmar. That's my little brother.
**[11:22] THORGIL**
Leave the rest to me.
**[11:41] OLMAR**
He's dead...
**[11:45] OLMAR**
Did *I* kill him?
**[12:08] OLMAR**
I killed a man...
**[12:31] THORGIL**
So it was his eye.
**[12:33] THORGIL**
It was damaged by a rock or something.
**[12:38] KETIL**
Olmar! Thorgil!
**[12:40] KETIL**
Move. Get out of the way.
**[12:48] KETIL**
Wh-Wh-What is this?
**[12:53] KETIL**
What happened?
**[12:58] KETIL**
Y-You...
**[13:05] THORGIL**
Calm down, Dad.
**[13:08] KETIL**
Calm down? You want me to calm down?
**[13:10] KETIL**
You... You killed the king's men!
**[13:15] KETIL**
What are you going to do about this?
**[13:18] THORGIL**
We did nothing wrong.
**[13:20] KETIL**
What?
**[13:21] THORGIL**
Olmar was insulted, so he fought a duel.
**[13:24] THORGIL**
He defended his honor.
**[13:25] KETIL**
But...
**[13:27] THORGIL**
There were five of them.
**[13:28] THORGIL**
No one could object to me joining the fight.
**[13:32] THORGIL**
You're his father.
You should be praising him.
**[13:39] KETIL**
Duels are forbidden by law!
**[13:43] THORGIL**
Nobody cares about that law.
**[13:46] THORGIL**
They had swords. They must've known
insulting him would be costly.
**[13:54] THORGIL**
They knew that, and insulted him regardless.
**[13:56] THORGIL**
The churls deserved to die.
**[14:02] SUBORDINATE A**
Move. Clear the way.
**[14:04] MOB**
Hey, what's going on?
**[14:06] KETIL**
It's... It's the guards.
**[14:08] THORGIL**
We did nothing wrong.
Duels happen all the time.
**[14:11] THORGIL**
Normally we wouldn't be punished.
**[14:18] CAPTAIN**
Who dared to start a commotion
just outside His Majesty's castle?
**[14:25] CAPTAIN**
Step forward and present yourselves.
**[14:31] CAPTAIN**
What's going on here? Olmar is alive.
**[14:34] CAPTAIN**
Ketil's here, too. Who's the other one?
**[14:38] SUBORDINATE A**
I don't know. Probably a family member.
**[14:43] THORGIL**
I am Thorgil, son of Ketil,
member of the king's guard.
**[14:48] THORGIL**
This is my father, Ketil,
and my younger brother, Olmar.
**[14:52] THORGIL**
This was a fair duel.
**[14:54] THORGIL**
We have done nothing wrong.
**[14:57] CAPTAIN**
Silence. The king has forbidden duels.
**[15:03] CAPTAIN**
You've disrespected the king.
You're all under arrest.
**[15:10] KETIL**
I-I knew it.
**[15:11] KETIL**
See? I told you so, Thorgil!
**[15:20] SUBORDINATE B**
Come on, hands behind your back.
**[15:21] SUBORDINATE C**
Stop resisting.
**[15:23] KETIL**
W-W-Wait a minute. I didn't—
**[15:27] SUBORDINATE A**
Hand over your sword and
put your hands behind your back.
**[15:32] SUBORDINATE A**
Hey, are you deaf?
**[15:46] CAPTAIN**
What?
**[15:48] SUBORDINATE D**
You... You asshole!
**[16:23] CAPTAIN**
Bastard!
**[16:39] KETIL**
H-Have you actually lost
your mind this time, Thorgil?
**[16:42] KETIL**
It's over. There's no coming back from this.
**[16:49] THORGIL**
There's something I want to ask you.
**[16:54] THORGIL**
I'm not a patient man.
Be careful how you answer my question.
**[16:59] THORGIL**
If you tell me, I'll spare your life.
**[17:03] THORGIL**
Why did you allow Olmar to win?
**[17:06] KETIL**
What?
**[17:07] OLMAR**
They... let me win?
**[17:11] THORGIL**
Tell me.
**[17:12] CAPTAIN**
I-I don't know—
**[17:21] THORGIL**
You should heed people's warnings.
**[17:24] THORGIL**
Tell me. Why did you set up Olmar?
**[17:30] CAPTAIN**
To... To arrest Ketil.
**[17:38] CAPTAIN**
We had Olmar kill the king's men
so Ketil would be held responsible
**[17:47] CAPTAIN**
for his son's disrespect to the king.
**[17:53] KETIL**
Wh-What did I do to deserve that?
**[17:58] CAPTAIN**
I-I simply followed Captain Wulf's orders.
**[18:04] CAPTAIN**
Please, let me tend to my wounds.
**[18:07] CAPTAIN**
The blood... It won't stop!
**[18:12] KETIL**
It's over. King Canute
has set his sights on us.
**[18:20] THORGIL**
No, Dad.
**[18:24] OLMAR**
Thorgil...
**[18:27] THORGIL**
This is the beginning.
**[18:30] THORGIL**
Our enemy is strong.
**[18:53] CANUTE**
I see. So Ketil's family escaped.
**[18:58] WULF**
I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
**[19:02] WULF**
I sent men to secure their ships and
lodgings, but they haven't been found.
**[19:06] WULF**
We're currently searching for them.
**[19:09] WULF**
It's my fault that we failed to capture Thorgil.
**[19:15] CANUTE**
He sounds like a skilled warrior.
**[19:18] WULF**
Yes. He was a good subordinate.
**[19:22] CANUTE**
It doesn't affect our plans.
**[19:24] CANUTE**
We have our excuse to punish them.
**[19:27] CANUTE**
As planned, we'll head to Ketil's farm.
**[19:31] CANUTE**
If Ketil isn't there, then that's fine.
**[19:34] CANUTE**
If he is and resists us,
then we'll simply overwhelm him.
**[19:38] WULF**
Yes, Your Majesty.
I'll mobilize 32 of your guard.
**[19:44] WULF**
With 70 of Floki's Jomsvikings,
we'll have 102 men altogether.
**[19:50] CANUTE**
That should be enough.
When will Floki arrive?
**[19:54] WULF**
Within three days, from Jomsborg.
**[19:59] CANUTE**
Then we'll leave at dawn three days from now.
**[20:03] CANUTE**
Leave me.
**[20:04] WULF**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[20:30] CANUTE**
What are you laughing about, King Sweyn?
**[20:34] SWEYN**
Don't be so angry.
**[20:37] SWEYN**
Why shouldn't a father be pleased
his son is beginning to resemble himself?
**[20:52] SWEYN**
Keep going.
**[20:55] SWEYN**
You'll need to pile up plenty of
bodies to reach the top.
**[21:18] LEIF**
All right, gentlemen. You can come out now.
**[21:30] THORGIL**
These barrels reek of salt.
**[21:34] THORGIL**
You saved us, Leif.
I appreciate your kindness.
**[21:39] LEIF**
This isn't an act of kindness. It's a deal.
**[21:42] LEIF**
Don't forget the promise you made me.
**[21:45] LEIF**
I wouldn't smuggle criminals
out of mere kindness.
**[21:46] THORGIL**
Boy, that stinks.
**[21:51] LEIF**
Do you have any idea how difficult
it was to convince my men?
**[21:56] THORGIL**
Don't worry. A warrior
never goes back on his word.
**[22:00] THORGIL**
Ketil's farm will buy all your
cargo for triple its value.
**[22:07] LEIF**
Don't forget about Thorfinn, too.
**[22:09] THORGIL**
Of course. You can have the slave, too.
**[22:13] THORGIL**
Right, Dad?
**[22:19] THORGIL**
Dad, you can come out now.
**[22:21] KETIL**
Shut up!
**[22:23] KETIL**
Don't talk to me. Leave me alone.
**[22:28] THORGIL**
He's in a bad mood.
**[22:30] LEIF**
Don't forget our promise.
**[23:05] EINAR**
All right. That's enough for today.
**[23:09] THORFINN**
Yeah.
**[23:11] EINAR**
Good work today.
**[23:28] EINAR**
What's the matter, Thorfinn?
**[23:30] EINAR**
Is the sunset that captivating?
**[23:36] THORFINN**
No...
**[23:44] CANUTE**
Mock me if you wish.
**[23:47] CANUTE**
Curse me if you must.
**[23:52] CANUTE**
I do all of this to create my utopia.
**[24:00] CANUTE**
All for lost love.

**[01:56] KJALLAKR**
I'm sorry. I was wrong!
**[02:01] KJALLAKR**
I'll apologize for everything!
**[02:04] KJALLAKR**
Forgive me.
**[02:07] KJALLAKR**
I'll release you.
**[02:10] KJALLAKR**
I swear to Odin, I will.
**[02:12] KJALLAKR**
Money! I'll even give you money.
**[02:14] KJALLAKR**
I'll give you as much as you want.
**[02:20] GARDAR**
That's not enough.
**[02:23] GARDAR**
It'll take more than that to wipe away
the insults I've suffered until today.
**[02:32] GARDAR**
You try being a slave for once.
**[02:36] GARDAR**
You won't understand the
depths of my rage otherwise.
**[02:45] KJALLAKR**
Okay!
**[02:49] KJALLAKR**
I'll become *your* slave.
**[02:52] KJALLAKR**
I'll serve you.
**[02:54] KJALLAKR**
As of today, you'll be the master,
and I'll be the slave.
**[03:00] KJALLAKR**
Please, just spare my life, master.
**[03:09] GARDAR**
I see. So you'll become my slave.
**[03:14] KJALLAKR**
Yes, gladly.
**[03:22] GARDAR**
Then whether you live or die...
**[03:28] GARDAR**
is up to me.
**[03:57] GARDAR**
It's been a long time.
**[04:00] GARDAR**
Now I must go get her.
**[05:55] EINAR**
I guess we won't be visiting
Mister Sverkel to borrow his horse anymore.
**[06:05] EINAR**
Why do you look so sullen?
**[06:08] THORFINN**
I, um...
**[06:10] THORFINN**
Have you already made your decision?
**[06:12] EINAR**
Huh? About what?
**[06:16] THORFINN**
What you're going to do once you're free.
**[06:20] EINAR**
Oh, that.
**[06:25] (Flashback) KETIL**
How would you like to continue working
for me as my retainers once you're free?
**[06:32] (Flashback) KETIL**
I'd gladly welcome a couple
of hard workers like you.
**[06:38] EINAR**
I know what the master said,
but I don't know.
**[06:45] EINAR**
I've lived too long as a slave.
**[06:47] EINAR**
I can't make a decision now that
I'm free to choose whatever I want.
**[06:53] THORFINN**
That's odd.
**[06:55] THORFINN**
Does that mean you'd consider staying here?
**[07:02] EINAR**
It's true that we don't have a good
relationship with the retainers.
**[07:07] EINAR**
But if I stay here, I might eventually
get a chance to free Arnheid.
**[07:18] THORFINN**
I'm surprised.
**[07:20] THORFINN**
You're that in love with her?
**[07:22] EINAR**
Don't. It's not like that.
**[07:27] EINAR**
I just...
**[07:30] SNAKE**
You're taking forever, Gramps!
**[07:32] SNAKE**
Are you trying to kill me?
**[07:42] SNAKE**
Where's the old man? He's not with you?
**[07:46] THORFINN**
Huh? Oh...
**[07:48] THORFINN**
The old master isn't back yet?
**[07:52] SNAKE**
Not since he left for his farm this morning.
**[07:57] SNAKE**
Damn it. It's already time for dinner.
**[08:03] THORFINN**
He asked us to chop wood for him.
**[08:05] EINAR**
That's odd. Normally he'd be home by now.
**[08:11] SNAKE**
I skipped lunch, too. Damn it, Gramps!
**[08:15] SNAKE**
Are you trying to kill...
**[08:19] EINAR**
Huh?
**[08:22] EINAR**
Where... Where are you going?
**[08:25] SNAKE**
To the farm. Follow me.
**[08:28] EINAR**
The farm?
**[08:52] SNAKE**
Gramps...
**[08:56] SNAKE**
Hey, Gramps. Hang in there. Gramps!
**[09:43] SVERKEL**
So I'm going to die in bed
and not on my farm.
**[09:56] SVERKEL**
It's open. Let yourself in.
**[10:05] ARNHEID**
Excuse me.
**[10:08] ARNHEID**
The mistress instructed me to come.
**[10:21] EINAR**
W-Wow...
**[10:25] EINAR**
I-Is there enough here for us, too, Arnheid?
**[10:32] ARNHEID**
Yes.
**[10:33] ARNHEID**
The old master said it would be all right
for me to cook for you as well.
**[10:37] ARNHEID**
I'm not sure if you'll like it, though.
**[10:41] ARNHEID**
Oh, I see none of you pray first...
**[10:42] ALL**
So good!
**[10:44] ALL**
Delicious!
**[10:46] ALL**
It's so good!
**[10:47] ARNHEID**
Master, please have something to eat.
**[10:47] ALL**
This is delicious!
**[10:52] ARNHEID**
Starting today, I'll be taking care of you.
**[10:56] ARNHEID**
I'll do anything you ask.
**[10:57] ALL**
So good!
**[10:58] ALL**
Have you had some of this?
**[11:00] SVERKEL**
Will you be staying at my house?
**[11:02] ALL**
Have some of this!
**[11:04] ALL**
What is that?
**[11:04] ARNHEID**
Yes, that's what the mistress told me to do.
**[11:08] ALL**
Is it so good it hurts?
**[11:09] ARNHEID**
Now eat.
**[11:10] ALL**
You okay?
**[11:11] ARNHEID**
Let me know if you don't like how it tastes.
**[11:17] SVERKEL**
I don't need any. I'll eat later.
**[11:20] SVERKEL**
I'm not hungry right now.
**[11:26] ARNHEID**
Oh, I see.
**[11:28] SNAKE**
Don't mind him.
Just shove the spoon in his mouth.
**[11:32] ARNHEID**
What?
**[11:33] SNAKE**
Gramps is just embarrassed about being fed.
**[11:38] SNAKE**
Get used to it, Gramps.
**[11:40] SNAKE**
Until you've recovered,
you're going to be fed for a while.
**[11:47] SVERKEL**
Did you just laugh?
**[11:50] THORFINN**
N-No.
**[11:53] SVERKEL**
I'm really not hungry. I'll eat later—
**[12:12] SVERKEL**
Get out of here!
**[12:25] ARNHEID**
I'll wash the dishes.
**[12:27] EINAR**
No, I'll do it.
**[12:34] ARNHEID**
I'm glad the old master seems to be
doing better than I'd heard.
**[12:40] ARNHEID**
And he doesn't seem as scary as they say.
**[12:44] EINAR**
Yeah. He's actually a kind man at heart.
**[12:48] EINAR**
He can be scary sometimes, though.
**[12:52] ARNHEID**
I think I know what you mean.
**[12:55] SVERKEL**
Hmph.
**[12:57] ARNHEID**
But...
**[13:05] ARNHEID**
I haven't had so much fun
at a meal in a long time.
**[13:12] EINAR**
Neither have I.
**[13:16] ARNHEID**
It was like I was free again.
**[13:26] EINAR**
You're right. It did feel like that.
**[13:48] FOX**
Hey, slaves. Is Snake around?
**[13:55] SNAKE**
A runaway slave?
**[13:57] FOX**
Yeah. He escaped from
Kjallakr's farm three days ago.
**[14:03] SNAKE**
That Kjallakr, huh?
**[14:06] SNAKE**
He's always treated his slaves poorly.
**[14:11] SNAKE**
He got what he deserved.
**[14:13] FOX**
Actually, it's not that simple.
**[14:17] FOX**
The slave killed Kjallakr and his sons
and set his house on fire.
**[14:24] FOX**
He's a violent man and a skilled fighter.
**[14:31] FOX**
Kjallakr's uncle said he'd give three
horses to whoever catches him.
**[14:36] FOX**
What should we do, boss?
**[14:40] SNAKE**
The three horses aside,
we should probably take precautions.
**[14:46] SNAKE**
Keep watch in groups of three for a while.
**[14:53] SNAKE**
Even if you spot him,
don't try too hard to catch him.
**[14:59] SNAKE**
Call for reinforcements first.
**[15:04] SNAKE**
There's no telling
what a cornered man will do.
**[15:57] FOX**
Look. That's him.
**[16:00] LIZARD**
That's his hilt catching the sun.
**[16:04] BADGER**
Is he sleeping?
**[16:07] FOX**
Looks like it. Just based on appearances,
he looks like a beggar or pilgrim.
**[16:13] LIZARD**
He looks pretty suspicious, right?
**[16:15] BADGER**
Yeah, sure does.
**[16:18] FOX**
Hey, keep your voices down.
**[16:21] LIZARD**
Does that mean it's him?
**[16:23] LIZARD**
The guy worth three horses...
**[16:25] BADGER**
Yeah, it's gotta be.
**[16:28] FOX**
Hey.
**[16:29] BADGER**
It's our lucky day.
**[16:31] LIZARD**
You idiot, you can't assume that.
**[16:33] FOX**
Hey, keep your voices down.
**[16:34] BADGER**
Huh?
**[16:34] LIZARD**
Isn't he supposed to be pretty tough?
**[16:37] BADGER**
We'll be fine. We'll bag him easily
while he's still asleep.
**[16:40] FOX**
Guys, keep your voices down.
**[16:41] LIZARD**
We should call for help, like the boss said.
**[16:44] BADGER**
Don't be a wuss, Lizard.
**[16:47] BADGER**
If we call for help,
we'll get smaller shares.
**[16:50] FOX**
I told you to keep your voices down.
**[16:53] LIZARD**
How are you so confident when we
don't even know how strong he is?
**[16:57] BADGER**
The reward is horses.
**[16:58] BADGER**
If we catch him now,
each of us gets a whole horse.
**[17:03] LIZARD**
It's not gonna go that well.
**[17:05] FOX**
Keep your voices down.
**[17:06] LIZARD**
There's nothing wrong with butchering a horse
and cooking a leg or two to eat, fatty.
**[17:10] BADGER**
What was that, you shrimp?
**[17:11] LIZARD**
If you're so desperate to die,
go die by yourself.
**[17:14] BADGER**
I'll kill you first.
**[17:16] LIZARD**
Not if I kill you first.
**[17:16] FOX**
Keep your voices down, idiots.
**[17:18] BADGER**
Bring it on.
**[17:51] EINAR**
Man, it's hot.
**[18:03] ARNHEID**
Okay.
**[18:09] EINAR**
Thorfinn, I've got a lot of
chopped wood waiting here.
**[18:12] EINAR**
Keep 'em moving.
**[18:16] EINAR**
Hey, Thorfinn.
**[18:22] THORFINN**
S-Sorry, one second.
**[18:27] EINAR**
Sure thing.
**[18:30] ARNHEID**
What is Thorfinn doing?
**[18:33] EINAR**
Snake is reading the Bible inside.
**[18:38] EINAR**
The old master can't read himself.
Thorfinn's eavesdropping on them.
**[18:42] ARNHEID**
I see. So Thorfinn is a Christian, too.
**[18:48] EINAR**
No, but he says it's interesting.
**[18:57] SNAKE**
"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall
love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'"
**[19:06] SNAKE**
"But I say to you, love your enemies and
pray for those who persecute you,"
**[19:16] SNAKE**
"so that you may be sons of
your Father who is in heaven;"
**[19:21] SNAKE**
"for He causes His sun
to rise on the evil and the good,"
**[19:26] SNAKE**
"and sends rain on the righteous
and the unrighteous."
**[19:34] SNAKE**
"For if you love those who love you,
what reward do you have?"
**[19:44] SNAKE**
"Do not even the tax collectors do the same?"
**[19:49] SNAKE**
"If you greet only your brothers,
what more are you doing than others?"
**[19:57] SNAKE**
"Do not even the Gentiles do the same?"
**[20:02] SNAKE**
"Therefore you are to be perfect,
as your heavenly Father is perfect."
**[20:13] SNAKE**
Good grief, that's ridiculous.
**[20:17] SNAKE**
Gramps, I'm sick of the Gospel.
**[20:20] SNAKE**
Let's read the first bit again.
**[20:22] SNAKE**
It's more interesting than this, at least.
**[20:27] SNAKE**
Hey, Gramps, what are you doing?
**[20:30] SNAKE**
Going for a piss?
**[20:31] SVERKEL**
The... The wheat...
**[20:35] SVERKEL**
I must harvest the wheat.
**[20:40] SNAKE**
I told you, they finished
the harvest a while ago.
**[20:45] SNAKE**
Stay in bed.
**[20:50] SNAKE**
Arnheid!
**[20:52] SNAKE**
Gramps pissed himself. Do you mind?
**[20:55] ARNHEID**
Got it.
**[20:58] EINAR**
I'll help, too.
**[21:07] SNAKE**
He's gone senile.
**[21:10] SNAKE**
He probably doesn't have much longer to live.
**[21:14] EINAR**
What?
**[21:14] THORFINN**
What?
**[21:16] EINAR**
But he's well enough to go out
on the farm every day.
**[21:21] THORFINN**
Yeah, and he always goes fishing
a couple times a day.
**[21:25] SNAKE**
But he's old enough to have great-grandkids.
**[21:28] SNAKE**
Old folks suddenly lose all their strength
once their legs start to go.
**[21:32] SNAKE**
But it won't be right away.
**[21:36] SNAKE**
You guys should repay his kindness
while you still have the chance.
**[21:44] THORFINN**
There's something I've been wondering.
**[21:48] THORFINN**
What's your relationship with the old master?
**[21:53] SNAKE**
Huh? It's nothing special.
**[21:59] SNAKE**
I'm just planning to inherit and sell
that book once Gramps kicks the bucket.
**[22:09] SNAKE**
Get back to work. The sun's setting.
**[22:13] BOTH**
Right.
**[22:32] ARNHEID**
Ow!
**[22:35] ARNHEID**
Ouch...
**[23:01] SNAKE**
He's riding fast.
**[23:03] SNAKE**
Is it one of my men?
**[23:06] SNAKE**
No...
**[23:08] SNAKE**
Hey, you on the horse. Stop!
**[23:11] FOX**
Boss!
**[23:15] FOX**
That's him! The runaway slave!
**[23:19] FOX**
He killed Lizard! Get him!
**[23:24] SNAKE**
Seriously? Damn it.
**[23:27] SNAKE**
My sword's inside the house.
**[23:31] ARNHEID**
It can't be...
**[23:40] ARNHEID**
Gardar!
**[23:56] GARDAR**
Arnheid!
**[24:03] GARDAR**
I've finally found you,

my wife!

**[01:49] GARDAR**
Arnheid.
**[01:54] GARDAR**
Which means this is Ketil's farm.
**[01:59] GARDAR**
I don't believe it.
**[02:01] GARDAR**
The two of you were just
a few days' walk away.
**[02:07] GARDAR**
You look a little haggard...
**[02:10] GARDAR**
But you're even more beautiful than before.
**[02:21] THORFINN**
What? Is he Arnheid's husband?
**[02:31] GARDAR**
Is Hjalti doing well?
**[02:34] GARDAR**
He must be so big by now.
**[02:47] ARNHEID**
Gardar...
**[02:51] ARNHEID**
Hjalti is...
**[03:01] GARDAR**
Come.
**[03:03] GARDAR**
Let's return to our home together.
All three of us.
**[03:10] ARNHEID**
Our home?
**[03:12] SNAKE**
Don't take his hand, Arnheid.
**[03:21] SNAKE**
If you do, I'll kill him.
**[03:40] ARNHEID**
Gardar!
**[03:41] SNAKE**
Fox!
**[03:43] SNAKE**
Take Arnheid and get out of here.
**[03:45] FOX**
Yes, boss.
**[03:54] FOX**
There's something wrong with him, boss.
**[03:56] FOX**
Did he forget he's being chased?
**[04:01] SNAKE**
Is it true that he killed Lizard?
**[04:07] FOX**
Yes. Split his head wide open.
**[04:12] SNAKE**
I see.
**[04:16] SNAKE**
He's here to kidnap Arnheid.
**[04:19] SNAKE**
Protect her with your life.
**[04:21] FOX**
Yes, boss.
**[04:24] GARDAR**
Are you Ketil?
**[04:29] SNAKE**
What if I am?
**[04:33] GARDAR**
I'll kill you!
**[04:35] ARNHEID**
Stop, Gardar! This is reckless!
**[04:38] ARNHEID**
Gardar!
**[04:49] THORFINN**
Don't, Einar.
**[04:50] THORFINN**
We don't even know what's going on.
What are you going to do?
**[04:53] THORFINN**
Are you going to attack Snake?
**[04:56] EINAR**
I know exactly what's going on here!
**[04:58] EINAR**
Arnheid's husband is here to rescue her.
**[05:02] EINAR**
Don't you want her to be free?
**[05:05] THORFINN**
I do, but look at what you're dealing with.
**[05:08] THORFINN**
You'd have to kill three men to get away.
**[05:11] EINAR**
I know I'm not strong enough, but...
**[05:14] THORFINN**
Einar, that's not what I'm trying to say.
**[05:18] THORFINN**
Can you kill a man?
**[05:21] THORFINN**
Whether it's a guest or anyone else,
**[05:23] THORFINN**
could you use this axe to kill a man?
**[05:31] EINAR**
Then... what am I supposed to do?
**[05:39] SNAKE**
Smart choice, Thorfinn.
**[05:42] SNAKE**
You guys watch quietly from over there.
**[05:46] SNAKE**
I'll capture him alive.
**[05:48] SNAKE**
I still need to question him
and confirm his identity.
**[06:00] BADGER**
Be careful, boss. He's strong.
**[06:04] SNAKE**
Who do you think you're talking to, dumbass?
**[06:10] SNAKE**
Whoa.
**[06:17] FOX**
You can't take him alive, boss. Kill him.
**[06:21] SNAKE**
Shut up. That was just a warm-up.
**[06:26] SNAKE**
Were you guys able to land
a single blow on him?
**[06:29] FOX**
What? Well, embarrassingly...
**[06:34] SNAKE**
He's injured.
**[06:37] SNAKE**
How'd the three of you lose
to an injured man?
**[06:54] SNAKE**
So that's where it was after all.
**[07:03] SNAKE**
Badger, tie him up.
**[07:06] ARNHEID**
Gardar! Gardar!
**[07:07] FOX**
Wow, you beat him in an instant.
**[07:11] ARNHEID**
Gardar!
**[07:18] GARDAR**
Arnheid!
**[07:22] GARDAR**
Arnheid!
**[07:28] GARDAR**

**[07:32] GARDAR**
Arnheid!
**[07:33] BADGER**
Come on, walk.
**[07:37] SNAKE**
Don't let your guard down.
**[07:39] SNAKE**
Always keep five guys watching him.
**[07:40] GARDAR**
Arnheid!
**[07:42] SNAKE**
And tell Kjallakr's uncle that
we've apprehended the suspect.
**[07:46] GARDAR**
Arnheid!
**[07:47] FOX**
Got it.
**[07:54] SNAKE**
Now then...
**[07:56] SNAKE**
You look like you've got something to say.
**[07:59] SNAKE**
But a slave's opinion doesn't matter.
**[08:06] EINAR**
Can't you let him off the hook?
**[08:09] EINAR**
This is too much to bear.
**[08:11] SNAKE**
He killed one of my men.
**[08:13] SNAKE**
He's suspected of killing others, too.
**[08:17] SNAKE**
Not only that,
but he wants to kill the master,
**[08:20] SNAKE**
and he intends to kidnap
the master's darling Arnheid.
**[08:25] SNAKE**
We can't let someone like that off the hook.
**[08:38] SNAKE**
Forget about him, Arnheid.
**[08:41] SNAKE**
That's not your husband.
**[08:44] SNAKE**
He's just a runaway slave
who's lost his mind.
**[08:52] SNAKE**
Stay out of this matter.
Look after Gramps for me.
**[09:41] THORFINN**
Einar, wait.
**[09:42] ARNHEID**
Einar.
**[09:48] ARNHEID**
Please have a seat.
**[09:51] ARNHEID**
It's almost time for dinner.
**[09:59] EINAR**
At night, under cover of darkness,
**[10:02] EINAR**
we might be able to sneak into
the fort and rescue Gardar.
**[10:07] EINAR**
If we don't do something,
your husband will be executed.
**[10:14] ARNHEID**
Thank you, but it's all right.
**[10:18] ARNHEID**
Sometimes, things can't be changed.
**[10:23] ARNHEID**
And it's better not to do
anything in those situations.
**[10:29] ARNHEID**
It's better to sit still and
wait for the storm to pass.
**[10:35] ARNHEID**
I don't want you to get
caught in the storm, Einar.
**[10:43] EINAR**
Don't you love Gardar?
**[10:48] ARNHEID**
I do.
**[10:50] ARNHEID**
Our parents arranged our marriage,
but he was kind to me and our son.
**[10:59] EINAR**
Then we should go.
**[11:02] EINAR**
Even if we end up having to fight Snake
and his men, it's better than doing nothing.
**[11:06] EINAR**
Isn't that right, Thorfinn?
**[11:12] EINAR**
Please, Thorfinn. Lend me your strength.
**[11:15] EINAR**
I'll draw the guards to me, so you...
**[11:17] ARNHEID**
I lost my son because of pots.
**[11:29] ARNHEID**
Could I tell you a little about myself?
**[11:43] ARNHEID**
About the past.
**[12:13] ARNHEID**
Our family lived in a village in Sweden.
**[12:20] ARNHEID**
Neither wealthy nor poor,
we lived a quiet life.
**[12:33] ARNHEID**
When our son was one year old,
**[12:35] ARNHEID**
deep in a distant forest,
a marsh containing iron was found.
**[12:40] ARNHEID**
Fighting broke out between several groups
competing for ownership of the marsh.
**[12:48] ARNHEID**
Gardar's friend was among
those involved in the conflict,
**[12:53] ARNHEID**
and he asked for his help.
**[12:58] ARNHEID**
Gardar told the rest of the village about it,
and the men gathered to discuss it.
**[13:05] ARNHEID**
Should we join the fighting or not?
**[13:10] ARNHEID**
If we won, we'd acquire iron.
**[13:17] ARNHEID**
So the men decided to join the fight.
**[13:29] ARNHEID**
The women were shocked when we heard this.
**[13:34] ARNHEID**
After all, our village had all the
pots and sickle blades we needed.
**[13:43] ARNHEID**
But women can't overturn
a decision made by men.
**[13:53] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
Please reconsider, Gardar.
**[13:55] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
It's not as though we're currently
suffering from a lack of iron.
**[14:03] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
Why are you risking your life
for something we don't need?
**[14:07] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Arnheid.
**[14:12] (Flashback) GARDAR**
We do need it.
**[14:15] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Yngve of the West is an ambitious man.
**[14:19] (Flashback) GARDAR**
If his clan acquires the iron, it'll upset
the balance of power in the area.
**[14:29] (Flashback) GARDAR**
And our village will become wealthy.
**[14:32] (Flashback) GARDAR**
So will the two of you.
**[14:45] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Hjalti, your father is going to
fight to protect you.
**[14:52] ARNHEID**
I couldn't understand it.
**[14:54] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Ow, that hurts.
**[14:58] ARNHEID**
He could've protected us
better by staying with us.
**[15:10] ARNHEID**
All the young men went off to battle,
**[15:14] ARNHEID**
while the women and children were
left behind to defend our homes.
**[15:17] ARNHEID**
Several weeks passed.
**[15:21] ARNHEID**
And then...
**[15:28] (Flashback) WOMAN**
Look.
**[15:31] ARNHEID**
When we saw the ships,
we thought the men had returned.
**[15:40] ARNHEID**
But instead...
**[15:53] ARNHEID**
They attacked while the men were gone.
**[15:58] ARNHEID**
Our homes were burned.
The elderly were killed.
**[16:02] ARNHEID**
The women were put on ships and taken away.
**[16:09] ARNHEID**
And I... lost Hjalti...
**[16:23] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
Hjalti! No! Hjalti!
**[16:45] ARNHEID**
When I met Gardar today, I was afraid of him.
**[16:52] ARNHEID**
I'm sure all the suffering
he's experienced has changed him.
**[16:58] ARNHEID**
He is the storm itself now.
**[17:06] ARNHEID**
This time, I must protect my child,
from the men's storm.
**[17:17] EINAR**
Your child?
**[17:22] ARNHEID**
I just learned the other day
**[17:26] ARNHEID**
that I'm pregnant with Master Ketil's child.
**[17:35] ARNHEID**
I'm sure he'll welcome this child.
**[17:40] ARNHEID**
After all, he's been wanting one.
**[17:44] ARNHEID**
On this farm, I could peacefully
raise a healthy child.
**[17:55] ARNHEID**
So Einar,
**[17:59] ARNHEID**
stay here until the storm passes.
**[18:06] ARNHEID**
Stay here.
**[19:08] SVERKEL**
I thought you were waiting
for the storm to pass, Arnheid.
**[19:16] ARNHEID**
You were listening, sir?
**[19:21] SVERKEL**
You seem to think I've gone
completely senile,
**[19:26] SVERKEL**
but I haven't lost my senses yet.
Don't underestimate me.
**[19:36] ARNHEID**
I thought I could at least tend his wounds.
**[19:45] ARNHEID**
I know I shouldn't see him again,
**[19:52] ARNHEID**
so why?
**[20:01] SVERKEL**
I once patiently waited
for a storm to pass, too.
**[20:10] SVERKEL**
No, I trembled as I hid.
**[20:30] SVERKEL**
It was more than 20 years ago.
**[20:38] SVERKEL**
My son Ketil and a beautiful girl from
our village were in love back then.
**[20:49] SVERKEL**
But one day, a man from
a nearby village named Ebbe
**[20:54] SVERKEL**
who'd been growing his power
fell in love with her,
**[20:58] SVERKEL**
and I was forced to make a painful decision.
**[21:03] SVERKEL**
Ketil was prepared to fight to protect her.
**[21:10] SVERKEL**
But at the time, we were still weak.
**[21:14] SVERKEL**
Many were afraid of Ebbe.
**[21:18] SVERKEL**
They thought we'd be
wiped out if we defied him.
**[21:24] SVERKEL**
So we made the decision to submit.
**[21:34] SVERKEL**
Norse men would be disgusted to hear that.
**[21:37] SVERKEL**
I offered up a young woman to protect myself.
**[21:47] SVERKEL**
And yet, on the day of her wedding...
**[22:07] SVERKEL**
It was the work of a man who
envied and resented Ebbe's wealth.
**[22:18] SVERKEL**
By the time I heard
the news and rushed there,
**[22:22] SVERKEL**
everything had already burned to ashes.
**[22:37] ARNHEID**
Why? Why does this always happen?
**[22:50] SVERKEL**
The only thing I can say is...
**[22:56] SVERKEL**
Even if you can wait out the storm,
it leaves scars behind.
**[23:19] SVERKEL**
I'm sorry I can't help you.
**[23:37] ARNHEID**
I'll be back soon.

**[02:32] SNAKE**
What the hell?
**[02:34] SNAKE**
That can wait until tomorrow.
**[02:37] FOX**
I-It's not my decision.
**[02:40] FOX**
In any case, the mistress insisted.
**[02:43] SNAKE**
Damn hag.
**[02:45] SNAKE**
Normally, they leave security up to us.
**[02:48] FOX**
Maybe it's about the three horses
being offered as a reward.
**[02:52] SNAKE**
You mean she wants a share?
**[02:54] SNAKE**
That greedy hag...
**[03:03] SNAKE**
Aw, man.
**[03:07] ARNHEID**
Mr. Snake, will you allow me
to see my husband—Gardar?
**[03:14] SANEK**
No.
**[03:17] ARNHEID**
He's injured, isn't he? How...
**[03:22] ARNHEID**
How are his wounds?
**[03:25] SNAKE**
I don't give a shit.
**[03:28] SNAKE**
Why should I tend to someone
who killed one of my men?
**[03:34] GUEST A**
Boss, your horse.
**[03:36] SNAKE**
Right. I'm going to see the mistress.
**[03:39] SNAKE**
You guys take Arnheid back to Gramps' house.
**[03:51] GUEST A**
Hey, wait. We don't have any more horses left.
**[03:54] GUEST A**
Does he seriously expect me to walk you back?
**[04:06] ARNHEID**
Please let me see my husband.
**[04:10] ARNHEID**
I swear I'm not planning to help him escape.
**[04:13] ARNHEID**
I simply want to tend his wounds.
**[04:16] GUEST A**
What? But...
**[04:22] GUEST A**
But the boss said...
**[04:35] GUEST B**
Whoa, whoa.
**[04:37] GUEST B**
What the hell is going on here?
**[04:39] GUEST B**
That's Ketil's precious girl.
**[04:43] GUEST A**
Uh, the boss gave her permission
to treat Gardar's wounds.
**[04:48] GUEST A**
It's true.
**[04:59] ARNHEID**
Gardar...
**[05:02] GARDAR**
Arnheid.
**[05:40] ARNHEID**
They beat you.
**[05:44] GARDAR**
Cut the ropes, Arnheid.
**[05:49] GARDAR**
Let's go home.
**[05:51] GUEST B**
Hey.
**[05:52] GUEST A**
It's all right.
**[05:54] GUEST A**
She doesn't have anything
to cut the ropes with.
**[05:57] GUEST B**
That's fine, then.
**[05:59] GUEST B**
Hey, Arnheid. Your husband
traveled all the way here to get you.
**[06:05] GUEST B**
Why don't you tend to
more than just his wounds?
**[06:11] ARNHEID**
I can't treat him when he's bound like this.
**[06:15] ARNHEID**
Could you temporarily untie him?
**[06:17] GUEST B**
No way. Besides, his junk isn't tied up.
**[06:22] GUEST B**
You can still take care of that.
**[06:26] GUEST C**
Yeah.
**[06:31] GARDAR**
Arnheid.
**[06:38] GARDAR**
I'm sorry.
**[06:43] GARDAR**
I'll never leave your side or Hjalti's again.
**[06:52] GARDAR**
Never again.
**[06:56] GARDAR**
I was wrong.
**[07:01] GARDAR**
Forgive me, Arnheid.
**[07:34] GARDAR**
I put you through so much pain.
**[07:37] GARDAR**
Let's start over.
It'll be like it was before.
**[07:43] GARDAR**
Release my bonds.
**[07:48] ARNHEID**
I'm sorry, Gardar. I'm sorry.
**[08:00] GARDAR**
What are you talking about?
I should be begging for your forgiveness.
**[08:06] GARDAR**
Come on, Arnheid. Pull yourself together.
**[08:19] GUEST B**
Well, that spoiled the mood.
**[08:22] GUEST B**
It's starting to come down hard.
**[08:24] GUEST B**
I'm gonna go rest indoors.
**[08:27] GUEST A**
Hey, we were told to keep watch.
**[08:32] GUEST B**
One man's enough.
**[08:34] GUEST B**
You're the one who brought her here.
**[08:36] GUEST B**
It's your responsibility to watch her.
**[08:39] GUEST A**
Seriously?
**[08:45] GUEST A**
Hey.
**[08:47] GUEST A**
Hey, Arnheid. You done over there?
**[08:52] GUEST A**
You got what you came for, right?
**[09:00] GUEST A**
Aw, man. My only flaw is
that I can't say no to women.
**[09:07] GUEST A**
Time's up.
**[09:11] GUEST A**
Come on, stand up.
**[10:25] GARDAR**
Arnheid, there's a knife on that man's hip.
**[10:28] GARDAR**
Use that to cut my ropes.
**[10:32] GARDAR**
Quickly, Arnheid!
**[10:37] GUEST D**
Hey, this is fucked! He's dead!
**[10:39] GUEST**
What? He's dead? What the hell is he doing?
**[10:42] GARDAR**
Pull yourself together!
**[10:44] GARDAR**
Quickly, the ropes!
**[10:44] GUEST**
Hurry!
**[10:47] GARDAR**
They're going to kill us.
**[10:50] GUEST**
Ready? Let's go.
**[10:55] GARDAR**
Arnheid!
**[11:23] FOX**
Bad news, boss.
**[11:24] FOX**
They're all dead.
**[11:31] SNAKE**
Those idiots...
**[11:34] SNAKE**
I told them so many times
not to let their guard down.
**[11:41] SPIDER**
Boss, come look at this.
**[11:46] SPIDER**
It's his sword.
**[11:49] SPIDER**
Look at the tip.
**[11:52] SPIDER**
The rain's washed the blood away,
but there's grease on it.
**[11:56] SPIDER**
He stabbed the enemy.
**[11:59] SNAKE**
It must've been deep.
**[12:01] SPIDER**
Yeah.
**[12:02] SNAKE**
He's got a new injury
on top of his existing one.
**[12:05] SNAKE**
There weren't any horses here.
**[12:10] SNAKE**
After him!
**[12:11] SNAKE**
He can't have made it far!
**[12:15] SNAKE**
We're going to settle this
while he's still on the farm!
**[12:19] SNAKE**
As soon as we find him,
**[12:22] SNAKE**
we'll kill him.
**[12:59] THORFINN**
Couldn't sleep, Einar?
**[13:06] EINAR**
You can't have slept either.
**[13:09] EINAR**
You didn't groan in your sleep,
and you came to wake me.
**[13:13] THORFINN**
Yeah, I guess.
**[13:17] EINAR**
Were you watching me?
**[13:20] EINAR**
Did you think I'd do something
reckless during the night?
**[13:27] EINAR**
I wouldn't do that.
**[13:29] EINAR**
I don't want to cause trouble for Arnheid.
**[13:36] EINAR**
It doesn't make sense.
**[13:39] EINAR**
All we were doing was living quietly.
**[13:45] EINAR**
It's wrong for freedom to be
taken away by violence.
**[13:51] EINAR**
It's wrong.
**[14:00] THORFINN**
I've spent most of my life at war,
so I have no right to say anything.
**[14:09] THORFINN**
But it's wrong. I was wrong.
**[14:18] EINAR**
I don't think Arnheid knows
you were a warrior.
**[14:25] THORFINN**
It's pathetic.
**[14:27] THORFINN**
I'm afraid of someone like her
finding out about my past.
**[14:34] THORFINN**
How was I not bothered by
hurting all those people?
**[14:41] EINAR**
I can't even imagine you acting like that.
**[14:49] EINAR**
Thorfinn, what you told me the other day...
**[14:54] EINAR**
Were you being serious?
**[14:55] THORFINN**
What?
**[14:57] EINAR**
You asked if it was possible to eliminate
war and slavery from the world.
**[15:05] EINAR**
It sounds like a fantastical dream to me,
**[15:08] EINAR**
but as someone who's experienced both,
you must have some ideas.
**[15:17] EINAR**
What should we do?
**[15:19] EINAR**
How can we eliminate war and slavery?
**[15:28] THORFINN**
I can only speak about my own experience,
**[15:35] THORFINN**
but war always produces lots of slaves.
**[15:39] THORFINN**
Those defeated in battle become slaves.
**[15:45] THORFINN**
Like you and Arnheid.
**[15:50] THORFINN**
The line between warrior
and slave trader is blurry.
**[15:55] THORFINN**
Slaves come from other places too,
but I think war is the number one source.
**[16:01] THORFINN**
If the number of wars decreased,
so would the number of slaves.
**[16:09] THORFINN**
But Norse men don't think war is a bad thing.
**[16:16] THORFINN**
A Norse man's worth is
determined by his valor and wealth.
**[16:21] THORFINN**
The more enemies you kill and wealth you bring
back home, the more you're respected.
**[16:28] THORFINN**
So fathers teach sons to fight, arm them,
and send them off on warships.
**[16:35] THORFINN**
It's what the Nords have done since
ancient times, without questioning it.
**[16:42] THORFINN**
It's always difficult to stop doing
what you think is natural.
**[16:49] EINAR**
But there are men like you, too.
**[16:52] EINAR**
Is it really so strange for someone
to swear not to hurt people?
**[16:59] THORFINN**
In Norse society, cowards can't survive.
**[17:09] THORFINN**
But that's fine.
**[17:11] THORFINN**
I'd much rather be an outcast
than be burdened by any more of them.
**[17:19] EINAR**
"Them"?
**[17:25] THORFINN**
The dead.
**[17:29] THORFINN**
The people I killed.
**[17:34] THORFINN**
Their ghosts appear every
night to torment me.
**[17:40] THORFINN**
"Why did you kill us?"
**[17:42] THORFINN**
"You felt so much anger and hate
when your own father was killed,"
**[17:47] THORFINN**
"and yet you killed so many
fathers, brothers, and sons."
**[17:54] THORFINN**
I need to atone for these people.
**[17:59] THORFINN**
I need to take them someplace
they can rest peacefully.
**[18:05] THORFINN**
I can't take on any more.
**[18:09] THORFINN**
I can't take on a single additional person.
**[18:20] THORFINN**
I've been thinking about
what I can do to make it up to them.
**[18:27] THORFINN**
You couldn't call simply not killing
or destroying anymore atonement.
**[18:35] THORFINN**
I need to grow more wheat
than I trampled underfoot.
**[18:42] THORFINN**
I need to rebuild more houses
than I burnt down.
**[18:48] THORFINN**
I still don't know how to eliminate
war from the entire world.
**[18:55] THORFINN**
But just a single village would do.
**[19:04] THORFINN**
I want to create a place
where people don't need swords.
**[19:19] EINAR**
But how are you going to defend that land?
**[19:25] EINAR**
I don't like war, either.
**[19:28] EINAR**
But Vikings eventually show up everywhere.
**[19:33] EINAR**
Sometimes you have to fight
to defend peace and freedom.
**[19:41] THORFINN**
But that's not good enough.
**[19:47] THORFINN**
There's no point if you fight for peace.
**[19:50] THORFINN**
You'll never escape from that
bloodthirsty hell that way.
**[20:01] EINAR**
So it'll never be more than just a dream.
**[20:10] EINAR**
You'd have to travel
beyond the ends of the earth.
**[20:16] EINAR**
Somewhere even the Vikings can't reach.
**[20:21] EINAR**
A land for the outcasts.
**[20:35] (Flashback) HORDALAND**
If I run away to the other side
of the ocean, then what's there?
**[20:44] (Flashback) HORDALAND**
There's probably nothing there, right?
**[20:48] (Flashback) HORDALAND**
No matter how far I go, it'd be the same as here.
**[20:52] (Flashback) HORDALAND**
Just filled with wars, and slave traders.
**[21:05] THORFINN**
Far to the west, beyond the sea...
**[21:16] THORFINN**
Beyond the reach of any authority,
unknown to slave traders,
**[21:22] THORFINN**
there is a land far beyond the horizon.
**[21:28] EINAR**
Does a place like that exist?
**[21:30] THORFINN**
There is. I'd forgotten.
**[21:34] THORFINN**
When I was a child, a sailor
named Leif told me about it.
**[21:40] THORFINN**
On the other side of the sea to the west,
there's an untouched, fertile land.
**[21:51] EINAR**
That's amazing.
**[21:54] EINAR**
Then... Then if we go there...
**[21:57] THORFINN**
No.
**[21:59] THORFINN**
He said it was incredibly far away,
and I don't even know its exact location.
**[22:07] THORFINN**
And we'd be establishing a nation.
**[22:09] THORFINN**
We'd have to take lots of outcasts with us.
**[22:13] THORFINN**
It'd be a huge undertaking.
**[22:21] EINAR**
I see.
**[22:23] EINAR**
But...
**[22:27] EINAR**
That's the first bit of good news
I've heard in a while.
**[23:03] FOX**
Be careful. He's strong.
**[23:06] MOLE**
Got it.
**[23:09] EINAR**
Wh-What's going on? It's still so early.
**[23:17] MOLE**
He doesn't seem to be here.
**[23:21] WILD DOG**
There's so much crap, it's hard to tell.
**[23:25] FOX**
Throw it all out.
**[23:30] EINAR**
What the hell are they doing?
**[23:35] THORFINN**
He escaped.
**[23:37] EINAR**
What?
**[23:38] THORFINN**
Gardar escaped.
**[23:40] THORFINN**
What other reason would
they have to search our shed?
**[23:50] EINAR**
Arnheid!

**[00:42] FOX**
Be careful. He's strong.
**[00:45] MOLE**
Got it.
**[00:48] EINAR**
Wh-What's going on? It's still so early.
**[00:56] MOLE**
He doesn't seem to be here.
**[01:00] WILD DOG**
There's so much crap, it's hard to tell.
**[01:04] FOX**
Throw it all out.
**[01:09] EINAR**
What the hell are they doing?
**[01:14] THORFINN**
He escaped.
**[01:16] EINAR**
What?
**[01:17] THORFINN**
Gardar escaped.
**[01:19] THORFINN**
What other reason would
they have to search our shed?
**[01:29] EINAR**
Arnheid!
***SIGN*** Great Purpose
***SIGN*** Great Purpose
**[03:33] THORFINN**
Wait, Einar!
**[03:35] THORFINN**
Stop, Einar!
**[03:40] EINAR**
If Gardar escaped,
he'll look for Arnheid again.
**[03:46] THORFINN**
What will you accomplish by going to Arnheid?
**[03:49] THORFINN**
Will you drive back Gardar?
**[03:55] EINAR**
I don't know, but...
**[04:00] EINAR**
There must be something I can do for Arnheid.
**[04:29] EINAR**
Arnheid!
**[04:36] BADGER**
It's not him.
**[04:38] BADGER**
It's not Gardar. Just two slaves.
**[04:43] BADGER**
What are their names again?
**[04:46] SPIDER**
You mean the master's slaves.
**[04:50] SNAKE**
Thorfinn and Einar, huh?
**[04:52] BADGER**
Yeah, those guys.
**[04:55] BADGER**
What are they doing here?
**[04:58] BADGER**
What should we do, boss?
Should we chase them off?
**[05:03] SNAKE**
No, leave them alone.
Let them do what they want.
**[05:20] EINAR**
Um, Arnheid...
**[05:26] ARNHEID**
Yes. You're here about Gardar.
**[05:32] EINAR**
You know?
**[05:37] ARNHEID**
Yes.
**[05:41] ARNHEID**
I helped him escape.
**[05:46] ARNHEID**
I cut the ropes binding him.
**[05:53] ARNHEID**
Gardar, he... the man watching him....
**[05:58] ARNHEID**
I thought we'd both be killed, so I...
**[06:14] ARNHEID**
Then Gardar killed all the other guests
who came to see what was happening.
**[06:31] THORFINN**
*More dead guests...*
**[06:34] THORFINN**
*The situation couldn't be worse.*
**[06:42] THORFINN**
Einar...
**[06:43] THORFINN**
We're being watched by guests.
**[06:46] THORFINN**
Kneel next to Arnheid and
pretend to wash dishes.
**[06:57] EINAR**
Stay calm, and tell us what's happening.
**[07:04] ARNHEID**
Gardar was badly injured in the f-fight.
**[07:11] ARNHEID**
We fled here in the rain,
to the old master's house.
**[07:20] ARNHEID**
But Gardar lost consciousness
while I was tending his wounds.
**[07:27] ARNHEID**
He was too heavy to carry.
**[07:30] ARNHEID**
I was barely able to hide him.
**[07:36] THORFINN**
So Gardar is here.
**[07:39] ARNHEID**
Yes. The old master helped me.
**[07:46] ARNHEID**
Snake and his men arrived soon after.
**[07:51] ARNHEID**
They seem to think Gardar fled
and is hiding somewhere.
**[08:00] ARNHEID**
They're waiting for Gardar
to come for me at the house.
**[08:06] ARNHEID**
Mister Snake and two other men are inside.
**[08:13] EINAR**
Why... Why would you do something
so reckless by yourself?
**[08:18] EINAR**
And after you said we'd wait out the storm
for the sake of the child inside you.
**[08:30] ARNHEID**
Why?
**[08:42] ARNHEID**
Perhaps...
**[08:45] ARNHEID**
Perhaps I was dreaming.
**[08:50] ARNHEID**
Dreaming of a life as part of a family
with Gardar and the child inside me.
**[08:59] ARNHEID**
I thought that perhaps he had returned...
**[09:08] ARNHEID**
I thought he'd returned.
**[09:17] ARNHEID**
Those eyes that used to be
so full of confidence...
**[09:32] ARNHEID**
They looked so miserable.
**[09:37] ARNHEID**
We've lived so miserably
since we lost Hjalti.
**[09:48] ARNHEID**
But I still dream...
**[10:05] THORFINN**
How are Gardar's injuries?
Has the bleeding stopped?
**[10:15] ARNHEID**
He was bleeding badly
from the right side of his chest.
**[10:21] ARNHEID**
He was still bleeding when I hid him.
**[10:28] THORFINN**
Every moment counts.
**[10:38] EINAR**
Arnheid...
**[10:42] EINAR**
Are you prepared to cast your lot with Gardar?
**[10:57] EINAR**
If you want to live with Gardar,
then you'll have to flee together.
**[11:04] EINAR**
But you're pregnant.
**[11:07] EINAR**
The road ahead will be difficult.
**[11:11] EINAR**
But if you still want to try,
**[11:15] EINAR**
then I will help you.
**[11:19] EINAR**
It's the only option left.
**[11:33] THORFINN**
*The only option, huh?*
**[11:41] THORFINN**
I'll help, too.
**[11:43] THORFINN**
Together, we may be able to do something.
**[11:48] EINAR**
Thorfinn...
**[12:07] BADGER**
Ow! What—
**[12:10] SNAKE**
Don't sleep.
**[12:11] SNAKE**
If you take your eyes off Arnheid again,
I'll break your nose.
**[12:15] BADGER**
Y-Yes, boss. Sorry.
**[12:23] BADGER**
Who's there?
**[12:26] ARNHEID**
I'd like to begin preparing lunch.
**[12:33] SNAKE**
Take the tools you need and cook in the yard.
**[12:36] SNAKE**
You're the bait.
Stay where you'll be seen.
**[12:42] ARNHEID**
Very well. I understand.
**[12:56] SVERKEL**
What a pitiful bunch.
**[13:00] SVERKEL**
Right, Snake?
**[13:06] SVERKEL**
They say inferior people
can't help but become slaves.
**[13:14] SVERKEL**
That it's where they belong.
**[13:18] SVERKEL**
But I don't think so.
**[13:21] SVERKEL**
Slaves were just unlucky. That's all.
**[13:28] SVERKEL**
If you and I had been unlucky,
we might've ended up as slaves, too.
**[13:35] SNAKE**
So what? That's got nothing to do with this.
**[13:39] SNAKE**
He killed five of my men.
**[13:42] SNAKE**
I won't be satisfied until he's dead.
**[13:47] SNAKE**
I can't walk around wearing this sword
**[13:50] SNAKE**
when I'm crying myself to sleep
over my unavenged men.
**[13:58] SVERKEL**
Then throw away your sword.
**[14:05] SVERKEL**
Even I can tell that sword
isn't from around here.
**[14:12] SVERKEL**
There was a reason you ended up here.
**[14:17] SVERKEL**
But I doubt throwing away your sword
would allow you to escape whatever it was.
**[14:25] SNAKE**
Enough talking, Gramps.
It's time for your nap.
**[14:33] SVERKEL**
You can have my farm.
**[14:37] SVERKEL**
Work the land. Produce life.
**[14:41] SVERKEL**
That's better than swinging around a sword.
**[14:49] SVERKEL**
I can no longer stand and walk.
Soon I will die.
**[14:56] SVERKEL**
It's a good opportunity for you
to straighten out your life.
**[15:02] SVERKEL**
I owe you for reading the Bible to me.
**[15:12] SNAKE**
Don't talk about that nonsense now.
**[15:15] SNAKE**
I'm not doing no stinking field work.
**[15:19] SPIDER**
Boss.
**[15:20] SNAKE**
Huh?
**[15:21] SPIDER**
There's someone out there.
**[15:27] SPIDER**
Over there. Third tree from the back.
**[15:31] SPIDER**
That's probably him in its shadow.
**[15:37] SNAKE**
All right.
**[16:11] THORFINN**
They're coming out.
**[16:13] THORFINN**
One, two, three...
**[16:16] THORFINN**
That's all of them.
**[16:22] THORFINN**
I'm counting on you, Einar.
**[16:43] SNAKE**
Spread out.
**[16:45] SNAKE**
We'll follow him from different
positions and vantages.
**[16:52] THORFINN**
Sir, I'm sorry, but I need to
borrow your horse and cart.
**[16:57] THORFINN**
I promise I'll pay you back
by working for you.
**[17:02] SVERKEL**
Don't worry about that.
**[17:04] SVERKEL**
More importantly, load me into the cart.
**[17:08] SVERKEL**
If I'm there, we'll be able to travel
around the farm unquestioned.
**[17:13] THORFINN**
But we can't involve you in this...
**[17:18] SVERKEL**
I'm already involved.
**[17:21] SVERKEL**
Now quit arguing and help me.
**[17:26] THORFINN**
Y-Yes, sir. Thank you.
**[17:34] SPIDER**
Damn that Gardar...
**[17:36] SPIDER**
He's trying to flee into the woods.
**[17:39] BADGER**
We won't be able to use
the horses in the woods.
**[17:42] BADGER**
Catch him. Don't let him enter the woods.
**[17:48] EINAR**
*Damn it! It's so far away...*
**[18:08] THORFINN**
*He's alive. His wounds were treated well.*
**[18:13] THORFINN**
*But he's as cold as a stone.*
**[18:16] THORFINN**
*He lost too much blood.*
**[18:19] THORFINN**
*Please hang in there.*
**[18:27] SNAKE**
*He's fast.*
**[18:29] SNAKE**
* A gravely injured man*
* could never run that fast.*
**[18:35] SNAKE**
Spider! Badger!
**[18:37] SNAKE**
Stay on him.
**[18:39] SNAKE**
Don't force a confrontation.
**[18:42] SNAKE**
If that's Gardar, you won't
stand a chance against him.
**[18:46] SNAKE**
I'll send reinforcements later.
**[18:49] SNAKE**
Keep following him until then.
**[18:51] SNAKE**
You got that?
**[18:53] SNAKE**
I'm counting on you guys.
**[18:55] BADGER**
What? Wait, where are you going, boss?
**[19:01] THORFINN**
The cart is ready.
**[19:04] THORFINN**
We'll hurry toward the border to the south.
**[19:06] THORFINN**
Once you're out of the country, it'll be
difficult for the guests to pursue you.
**[19:11] THORFINN**
I'll leave you partway to distract them.
**[19:14] THORFINN**
I'll draw as many pursuers to me as I can.
**[19:17] THORFINN**
Sir, could you accompany them
to the edge of the farm?
**[19:22] SVERKEL**
Got it.
**[19:56] THORFINN**
*I didn't hear horses.*
**[20:02] THORFINN**
*Did he dismount and run here?*
**[20:11] SNAKE**
I see.
**[20:13] SNAKE**
So he's unconscious.
**[20:17] SNAKE**
No wonder I couldn't sense him.
**[20:27] ARNHEID**
Thorfinn...
**[20:40] SNAKE**
Just so you know, Thorfinn,
I'm not here to negotiate.
**[20:47] SNAKE**
Hand over Gardar.
**[20:50] SNAKE**
Otherwise,
**[20:53] SNAKE**
I'll kill you.
**[21:01] THORFINN**
*There were three pursuers.*
**[21:03] THORFINN**
*But only Snake is here.*
**[21:05] THORFINN**
*I don't sense the others.*
**[21:08] THORFINN**
* If I can subdue him somehow,*
* we can still escape.*
**[21:14] THORFINN**
* I'll slip past his sword and*
* deal a single blow to his chin.*
**[21:21] ASKELADD**
You gonna fight him, Thorfinn?
**[21:24] ASKELADD**
Good grief. I guess
you can't help it this time.
**[21:28] ASKELADD**
You're helping someone.
**[21:30] ASKELADD**
You've got a good reason to raise your fists.
**[21:36] ASKELADD**
But, you know,
**[21:38] ASKELADD**
I'm sure he's got a good reason, too.
**[21:43] ASKELADD**
What will you do, Thorfinn?
**[21:46] ASKELADD**
Will you remain a pacifist, or will you
fight him in order to help someone else?
**[21:56] ASKELADD**
Which road leads to becoming a true warrior?
**[22:01] ASKELADD**
There's no time to think about it.
**[22:05] ASKELADD**
Look. He's right in front of you.
**[23:12] ASKELADD**
Do you think you can beat him
while you're still half-asleep?
**[23:47] SNAKE**
*That's an odd stance.*
**[23:49] SNAKE**
*Not right for a spear or an ax...*
**[23:52] SNAKE**
*A sword?*
**[23:56] SNAKE**
*No...*

*Are you serious? He's unarmed.*

Snake!
**[04:52] ARNHEID**
Please don't, Mister Snake!
**[04:58] ARNHEID**
Please don't kill Gardar.
**[05:04] ARNHEID**
Please let this go.
**[05:15] SNAKE**
Don't be so self-centered, Arnheid.
**[05:20] SNAKE**
He killed five of my men.
**[05:23] SNAKE**
I can't overlook that.
**[05:26] SVERKEL**
Snake! I'll do whatever I can to express
my condolences for the loss of your men.
**[05:33] SVERKEL**
I'll even sell my farm to—
**[05:34] SNAKE**
Shut up, Gramps! This isn't about money!
**[05:42] SNAKE**
Both me and my men are a
bunch of stupid, nasty scumbags.
**[05:48] SNAKE**
We're drifters who can't use our real names
because of what we've done elsewhere.
**[05:54] SNAKE**
But does that mean
it doesn't matter if we die, huh?
**[05:59] SNAKE**
Is Gardar's life worth that much?
**[06:02] SNAKE**
More than the lives of five of my men?
**[06:05] SNAKE**
Tell me, Thorfinn! Arnheid!
**[06:09] SNAKE**
Tell me how much more he's worth.
**[06:21] SNAKE**
They're not that different, huh?
**[06:26] SNAKE**
In that case...
**[06:27] THORFINN**
Don't—
**[06:28] SNAKE**
The cost of life...
**[06:31] SNAKE**
...can only be paid with life!
**[07:20] SNAKE**
You still want to fight?
**[07:23] SNAKE**
Will you avenge Gardar?
**[07:32] SNAKE**
Arnheid, you're the one who
cut Gardar's bonds, aren't you?
**[07:38] SNAKE**
You two will be punished accordingly.
**[07:42] SNAKE**
Until the master returns, you'll be bound—
**[08:15] THORFINN**
Enough, Gardar!
**[08:22] THORFINN**
If you keep choking him, he'll die!
**[08:25] THORFINN**
Gardar!
**[08:27] THORFIN**
Damn! He's so strong...
**[08:34] THORFINN**
Gardar!
**[08:39] THORFINN**
Let go!
**[08:43] THORFINN**
Gardar!
**[08:55] ARNHEID**
Gardar.
**[08:58] ARNHEID**
Let's go home, Gardar.
**[09:10] ARNHEID**
That's enough.
**[09:13] ARNHEID**
There's no one to get in our way anymore.
**[09:17] ARNHEID**
Hjalti is waiting for us.
**[09:46] GARDAR**
Hjalti...
**[09:51] GARDAR**
Where is he now?
**[10:11] ARNHEID**
He's with your brother in Birka.
**[10:16] ARNHEID**
I sent him to safety
before the fighting started.
**[10:21] GARDAR**
I see. My brother's always
done so much for me.
**[10:28] GARDAR**
I'll need to bring something to thank him
when we go to get Hjalti.
**[10:36] GARDAR**
You there...
**[10:40] GARDAR**
Is this your cart?
**[10:44] GARDAR**
I'd like to borrow it.
**[10:46] THORFINN**
Uh, actually...
**[10:48] SVERKEL**
It's mine.
**[10:51] SVERKEL**
You can have it, Gardar.
**[10:56] GARDAR**
Ah!
**[11:01] GARDAR**
Sorry for talking down to you from up here.
**[11:04] GARDAR**
Old man, what's your name?
**[11:07] SVERKEL**
It's Sverkel.
**[11:11] SVERKEL**
Go on. Return to your home.
**[11:16] GARDAR**
Thank you, Mister Sverkel.
**[11:26] ARNHEID**
Thorfinn...
**[11:29] ARNHEID**
And Einar.
**[11:31] ARNHEID**
I can't thank you enough.
**[11:37] THORFINN**
This is reckless, Arnheid.
**[11:40] THORFINN**
Gardar is already...
**[11:50] ARNHEID**
It's fine.
**[11:57] ARNHEID**
Please send us off.
**[12:46] GARDAR**
*I feel cold...*
**[12:50] GARDAR**
*Cold to my core.*
**[13:07] GARDAR**
*How miserable.*
**[13:10] GARDAR**
*Such unfortunate men, abandoned by the gods.*
**[14:27] (Flashback) GARDAR**
You...
**[14:31] (Flashback) GARDAR**
You are my new pride.
**[14:35] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Hjalti...
**[14:37] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Hjalti, son of Gardar.
**[14:41] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Father shall fight for you.
**[14:44] (Flashback) GARDAR**
For honor, so you can be proud of him.
**[14:48] (Flashback) GARDAR**
For wealth that will someday be yours.
**[15:54] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Wait!
**[17:16] GARDAR**
For honor and wealth...
**[17:23] ARNHEID**
Gardar?
**[17:32] GARDAR**
How old is Hjalti now?
**[17:38] GARDAR**
Eight? Nine?
**[17:46] ARNHEID**
He's six.
**[17:48] GARDAR**
Ah, forgive me.
**[17:52] GARDAR**
I lost track of time since being enslaved.
**[17:57] GARDAR**
Six. I see. That's a shame.
**[18:03] GARDAR**
I missed his cute years.
**[18:08] GARDAR**
He was still only one when I last saw him.
**[18:14] GARDAR**
Good grief. He's probably forgotten about us.
**[18:24] GARDAR**
He's my son. He's surely
grown into a prankster.
**[18:31] GARDAR**
I bet he lights horses' tails on fire.
**[18:36] ARNHEID**
You did that as a child?
**[18:40] GARDAR**
Yeah. I got in a lot of
trouble with my father.
**[18:51] GARDAR**
Once he's old enough, he'll probably say
he wants to go adventuring.
**[18:57] GARDAR**
All boys do.
**[19:04] GARDAR**
But I won't allow it.
**[19:23] ARNHEID**
Gardar.
**[19:40] GARDAR**
I'm all right. I'm just a little tired.
**[19:48] GARDAR**
Let me rest.
**[20:32] (Flashback) GARDAR**
We're really doing this?
**[20:34] (Flashback) MAN A**
Yeah. We've made up our minds.
**[20:37] (Flashback) MAN B**
The villagers' lives will be easier
if we acquire iron.
**[20:41] (Flashback) MAN B**
So will your family's.
**[20:48] (Flashback) GARDAR**
Fine. Let's go.
**[20:50] (Flashback) MAN A**
All right.
**[20:54] (Flashback) MAN B**
Everyone's already gathered in the square.
**[20:56] (Flashback) MAN A**
Hurry.
**[21:23] GARDAR**
Arnheid...
**[21:27] GARDAR**
Hjalti...
**[21:32] GARDAR**
I'll never leave your sides again.
**[23:30] GARDAR**
I'm home.
**[23:53] ARNHEID**
Welcome home.
**[23:56] ARNHEID**
Welcome home, Gardar.

**[00:30] ULF**
The wind favors us, Your Majesty.
**[00:33] ULF**
If we continue to be blessed by the wind,
**[00:35] ULF**
we should arrive at Ketil's farm
within two or three days.
**[00:40] FLOKI**
I can't believe the king himself is
going to face a mere backcountry clan.
**[00:49] FLOKI**
The Jomsvikings could've handled this.
**[00:55] ULF**
His Majesty has
a well thought-out plan, Floki.
**[01:01] ULF**
A good liegeman doesn't question
his king's decisions.
**[01:05] FLOKI**
Jomsborg is an ally.
I am not quite his liegeman.
**[01:12] FLOKI**
Don't forget that, Ulf.
**[01:16] CANUTE**
Do you suppose Ketil and his family
will oppose the king?
**[01:23] ULF**
I'm not sure.
**[01:25] ULF**
I've heard Ketil is a mighty warrior who used
to be known as the Iron Fist on the battlefield.
**[01:30] ULF**
We mustn't underestimate him.
**[01:33] CANUTE**
He didn't seem that way to me.
**[01:37] CANUTE**
People are assets. I'd hate to waste them.
**[01:42] CANUTE**
It would be best if Ketil's family
submitted to the king's authority.
**[01:49] FLOKI**
Is that why you're going there in person?
**[01:52] FLOKI**
But they've committed an outrage against you.
**[01:57] FLOKI**
Shouldn't we make an example
out of them by punishing them harshly?
**[02:03] CANUTE**
I intend to show no mercy if they defy me.
**[02:20] CANUTE**
A tailwind...
**[02:22] CANUTE**
But the waves are tall,
and the land we seek is far ahead.

**[04:22] RETAINER A**
Oh, my. I thought Master Ketil
had returned, but it's Mister Thorgil.
**[04:31] RETAINER B**
Welcome back, Mister Thorgil.
**[04:34] THORGIL**
Thanks. I brought you a gift. Take this.
**[04:38] THORGIL**
Yah!
**[04:51] RETAINER**
Master!
**[04:53] THORGIL**
Get him a stiff drink and let him sleep.
**[04:56] THORGIL**
What a hopeless old man.
**[04:59] THORGIL**
Come on, retainers.
**[05:02] THORGIL**
This is no time to be hanging fish to dry.
**[05:04] THORGIL**
We're preparing for battle.
**[05:06] THORGIL**
Enemy forces will be arriving soon
to take this entire farm.
**[05:12] THORGIL**
Gather all the men and weapons you can find.
**[05:19] RETAINER**
Wh-What? Enemy? Who?
**[05:22] RETAINER**
How soon is soon?
**[05:24] RETAINER**
What's wrong with the master?
**[05:25] RETAINER**
What happened to him?
**[05:25] MORS**
Hey, wait. Mister Thorgil...
**[05:28] MORS**
Let us conclude our deal before the battle.
**[05:32] MORS**
We don't want to get caught up in the fighting.
**[05:35] THORGIL**
Talk to my dad about that. I'm busy.
**[05:41] THORGIL**
Olmar, hurry up.
**[05:46] THORGIL**
This is your first battle.
**[05:48] THORGIL**
Stick by me and learn to fight.
**[05:51] THORGIL**
Though considering who we're up against,
this might be our last battle.
**[05:59] THORGIL**
Aren't you pleased, Olmar?
**[06:02] THORGIL**
You're finally getting to fight,
just like you wanted.
**[06:10] MORS**
Mister Ketil, pull yourself together.
**[06:14] MORS**
Didn't you say you'd buy our cargo
at triple market price?
**[06:19] MORS**
That's why we transported
your family all the way here.
**[06:27] KETIL**
Arnheid...
**[06:30] MORS**
What?
**[06:43] MORS**
H-Hey, wait. Ketil.
**[06:46] MORS**
Wait a minute, Ketil.
**[06:49] MORS**
Please, Ketil!
**[06:57] BUG-EYES**
I'm sure it'll be fine.
**[07:01] BUG-EYES**
You've got a good feeling about this, right?
**[07:04] BUG-EYES**
This time, it'll be the real Thorfinn.
**[07:13] LEIF**
You're right.
**[07:16] LEIF**
I'll choose to believe that's true.
**[07:23] SPARROW**
A battle? Here?
**[07:27] RAT**
In a few days, apparently.
**[07:29] RAT**
Mister Thorgil said to repair
the fortress walls.
**[07:33] SPARROW**
Repair the walls? But...
**[07:36] SPARROW**
This can't be fixed in just a few days.
**[07:39] SPARROW**
Who are we fighting, anyway?
**[07:41] RAT**
He wouldn't say.
**[07:44] RAT**
He said he'd tell us
once the soldiers were gathered.
**[07:47] FOX**
Doesn't matter who we're fighting.
We can't win.
**[07:50] FOX**
There aren't enough
experienced soldiers on this farm.
**[07:55] FOX**
Just the other day,
we lost five valuable fighters.
**[08:02] EINAR**
The guests look unsettled about something.
**[08:07] EINAR**
Has the master returned?
**[08:12] EINAR**
I wonder what he's going to do
when he learns Arnheid tried to escape.
**[08:24] EINAR**
You think he'll punish her?
**[08:30] THORFINN**
A lot of people died.
**[08:35] EINAR**
But the master adores Arnheid.
**[08:42] EINAR**
He won't go too hard on her, will he?
**[08:47] THORFINN**
Maybe. She's pregnant with his child, too.
**[08:57] EINAR**
I'm worried. I hope she's all right.
**[09:04] THORFINN**
I'm sorry.
**[09:07] EINAR**
You fought Snake and his men
for Arnheid and Gardar, right?
**[09:17] EINAR**
You even broke your oath.
**[09:24] EINAR**
Sometimes you have to fight.
**[09:30] EINAR**
Thank you, Thorfinn.
**[09:37] THORFINN**
I like Snake.
**[09:42] THORFINN**
He's a kind and principled man.
**[09:47] THORFINN**
I didn't want to fight him.
**[09:52] THORFINN**
And in the end, I let Gardar die.
**[10:00] THORFINN**
I'm stupid, so I'm not sure how to say it.
**[10:10] THORFINN**
But I wonder if there wasn't a better way.
**[10:16] THORFINN**
Did so many people have to get hurt?
**[10:18] THORFINN**
Did people have to lose their lives?
**[10:23] THORFINN**
Did I try to find a way to avoid that?
**[10:30] EINAR**
There wasn't one.
**[10:32] EINAR**
After all the guests that died,
Snake couldn't back down, either.
**[10:39] THORFINN**
But violence should be a last resort.
**[10:49] THORFINN**
I wonder what the best option was, though.
**[10:57] THORFINN**
What should've been tried first?
**[11:03] THORFINN**
I want to learn to find that first method.
**[11:13] THORFINN**
There is no person who deserves to be hurt.
**[11:23] EINAR**
You're right.
**[11:27] EINAR**
That's exactly right.
**[11:44] KETIL**
Arnheid, where are you? Arnheid...
**[11:56] KETIL**
Where are you?
**[12:03] MISTRESS**
My, what a surprise.
**[12:05] MISTRESS**
You're back early, dear husband.
**[12:10] MISTRESS**
I heard King Harald passed away.
**[12:17] MISTRESS**
Dear?
**[12:22] KETIL**
A-Arnheid...
**[12:28] MISTRESS**
That shameless slave has been
tied up and thrown in the stable.
**[12:34] MISTRESS**
She caused quite a lot of
trouble while you were gone.
**[12:42] MISTRESS**
She was plotting to escape.
What a truly ungrateful slave.
**[12:51] KETIL**
Escape?
**[12:56] KETIL**
Arnheid tried to...
**[12:59] MISTRESS**
Her old flame came to the farm
and led her away.
**[13:04] MISTRESS**
Many of the guests died.
**[13:07] MISTRESS**
Two of our male slaves even helped them.
**[13:13] MISTRESS**
What an unbelievable woman.
**[13:16] MISTRESS**
You'll have to address
this matter properly, dear.
**[13:24] KETIL**
Escape...
**[13:32] KETIL**
Why?
**[13:34] KETIL**
Why does everything
keep slipping from my grasp?
**[13:43] KETIL**
Escape?
**[13:48] KETIL**
Why?
**[14:02] SNAKE**
Nobody told me anything about that.
**[14:06] SNAKE**
I can't let you see him.
**[14:09] LEIF**
But it's true.
**[14:11] LEIF**
Ketil promised to free Thorfinn.
**[14:15] LEIF**
In any case,
I'd like to at least see his face.
**[14:18] LEIF**
I want to know if the man you've
got here is the Thorfinn I'm looking for.
**[14:23] SNAKE**
Not until I've gotten confirmation
from the master.
**[14:27] SNAKE**
Otherwise I can't allow anyone
to meet with someone who's locked up.
**[14:35] LEIF**
Fine. I understand.
**[14:39] LEIF**
Come with me. Let's go talk to Ketil.
**[14:46] LEIF**
I'm sorry to bother you
when you're so busy, Pater.
**[14:50] PATER**
I don't mind showing you around, but...
**[14:58] LEIF**
Is there a problem?
**[15:03] PATER**
As an outsider, you're the only one
I can turn to for help with this matter.
**[15:11] PATER**
Forgive me, Mister Leif, but can you
spare the funds to purchase a slave?
**[15:19] LEIF**
Some, I suppose. I was promised
I could have Thorfinn for free.
**[15:26] PATER**
The master keeps his promises.
**[15:30] PATER**
Thorfinn and Einar will be fine.
**[15:35] PATER**
But Arnheid is a more challenging matter.
**[15:42] PATER**
I know I'm asking for a lot, Mister Leif,
**[15:48] PATER**
but would you be willing to
purchase two slaves besides Thorfinn?
**[16:09] EINAR**
Arnheid...
**[16:20] WILD DOG**
Man, I'm bored.
**[16:22] WILD DOG**
I've got a woman right in front of me,
and I can't even do anything with her.
**[16:31] WILD DOG**
You act all meek, but you actually
know what you're doing, don't you?
**[16:37] WILD DOG**
The master will spank you a few times
and forgive you for everything.
**[16:44] WILD DOG**
He's too easy on you.
**[16:51] WILD DOG**
You're lucky your punishment
wasn't up to us guests.
**[16:59] WILD DOG**
By now you'd have been
stripped naked and raped by all of us
**[17:08] WILD DOG**
for our brothers who were killed.
**[17:13] WILD DOG**
Our dead brothers wouldn't be
able to rest in peace otherwise.
**[17:19] WILD DOG**
Don't you agree?
**[17:23] KETIL**
What are you doing?
**[17:27] WILD DOG**
S-Sir, you're back.
**[17:36] KETIL**
Leave. I have business with Arnheid.
**[17:42] WILD DOG**
But sir, I, uh...
**[17:45] KETIL**
Leave.
**[17:46] WILD DOG**
Y-Yes, sir.
**[17:57] KETIL**
You tried to escape from me?
**[18:04] KETIL**
Why, Arnheid?
**[18:07] KETIL**
Why?
**[18:23] KETIL**
Why?
**[18:26] KETIL**
Why don't you understand?
**[18:30] KETIL**
Why would you do that?
**[18:37] KETIL**
Do you despise me?
**[18:43] KETIL**
I won't allow anyone to
take my pride from me.
**[18:48] KETIL**
Not even you, Arnheid.
**[19:00] ARNHEID**
Stop... N-Not my stomach...
**[19:05] ARNHEID**
I have a child inside me...
**[19:11] ANRHEID**
I have a child inside me.
**[19:15] ANRHEID**
Please, no more.
**[19:22] KETIL**
Whose child is it?
**[19:25] ARNHEID**
I s-s-swear it's yours, Master.
**[19:30] ARNHEID**
It's true. Please believe me.
**[19:34] KETIL**
Believe you?
**[19:40] KETIL**
You... You were the only one I trusted.
**[19:51] KETIL**
What am I supposed to believe, huh?
**[19:55] KETIL**
What does it mean to trust someone?
**[19:57] KETIL**
It's true? It's real?
**[20:01] KETIL**
I won't suffer losing something
I never doubted!
**[20:10] KETIL**
You'll pay for this, you thieves!
**[20:15] KETIL**
With this hand, I will punish you!
**[20:25] PATER**
Arnheid!
**[20:32] SNAKE**
Given the weight of Arnheid's crimes,
it makes sense to flog her.
**[20:38] SNAKE**
But if you keep hitting her,
you'll be executing her.
**[20:43] SNAKE**
Arnheid is your slave, sir.
**[20:46] SNAKE**
You have the right to kill her.
**[20:51] SNAKE**
You want to execute her, right?
**[20:53] SNAKE**
Then I'll let go of the rod.
**[21:20] KETIL**
Tend her wounds, Pater.
**[21:28] BUG-EYES**
Scary...
**[21:32] LEIF**
K-Ketil, if you don't want that slave girl,
would you sell her to me?
**[21:41] LEIF**
I heard you have
two other slaves besides Thorfinn.
**[21:45] LEIF**
That they're Thorfinn's friends.
**[21:48] LEIF**
I'll pay.
**[21:51] LEIF**
I'd like to buy them from you.
**[21:59] KETIL**
Who said I don't want her?
**[22:03] KETIL**
Take Thorfinn and Einar wherever you want.
**[22:10] KETIL**
But I'm not selling Arnheid.
**[22:14] KETIL**
That woman belongs to me.
**[22:46] PATER**
She's alive, but she's still unconscious.
**[22:53] PATER**
I don't know if she'll make it.
**[23:02] PATER**
Don't touch her, Einar.
**[23:05] PATER**
You mustn't move her.
**[23:19] KETIL**
They won't get away with this.
**[23:21] KETIL**
They're all thieves.
**[23:25] KETIL**
I raised it up with such care.
**[23:27] KETIL**
I take such good care of it.
**[23:30] KETIL**
And they're trying to take it all from me.
**[23:32] THORGIL**
Dad, where have you been?
**[23:35] THORGIL**
We've got a mountain of things to do.
**[23:39] THORGIL**
Also, a suit of armor would be...
**[23:42] THORGIL**
Hey, Dad.
**[23:50] KETIL**
Those thieves won't get away with this.
**[23:54] KETIL**
I'll punish them.
**[24:01] KETIL**
Even if it's the king.

**[00:23] FOX**
There's about 350 here.
**[00:26] FOX**
Only around 100 of them
will be any good in a fight.
**[00:30] SNAKE**
Get an exact head count later.
**[00:35] FOX**
Are we really doing this, boss?
**[00:40] SNAKE**
The master insists on fighting.
**[00:43] SNAKE**
We have no choice.
**[00:47] FOX**
They're out of their minds.
**[00:51] FOX**
Do they think they stand a chance
against the king's forces?
**[00:56] SNAKE**
They all owe money to the master.
**[00:59] SNAKE**
They were told he'd cancel their debts
if they fought in the battle.
**[01:05] SNAKE**
If they'd known they'd be fighting the king,
they probably wouldn't have shown up.
**[01:09] SNAKE**
But now that they're here, their vanity
as Norse men won't allow them to leave.
**[01:15] SNAKE**
And the more of them there are,
the bolder they get.
**[01:19] SNAKE**
They start feeling like
they could actually win.
**[01:22] SNAKE**
Waiting until they were gathered
to tell them they'd be fighting the king
**[01:25] SNAKE**
was a smart choice.
**[01:30] SNAKE**
Thorgil's a better strategist
than I expected.
**[01:55] THORFINN**
The master intends to fight.
**[01:57] THORFINN**
The soldiers have gathered.
**[02:00] THORFINN**
This place will become a battlefield.
**[02:04] MORS**
See? It's just like we told you.
**[02:06] MORS**
We need to leave this farm right away,
or we'll get caught up in it, Thorfinn.
**[02:12] THORFINN**
I know, but...
**[02:24] THORFINN**
Mister Leif.
**[02:28] THORFINN**
We can't leave the farm with
Arnheid in this condition, sir.
**[02:36] THORFINN**
Thank you for caring about me.
**[02:46] LEIF**
You've changed, Thorfinn.
**[02:50] LEIF**
When I first saw you,
I thought you were someone else.
**[02:57] LEIF**
The look on your face is
better these days, Thorfinn.
**[03:06] LEIF**
I finally got to see you.
**[03:08] LEIF**
I can't leave without you.
**[03:16] EINAR**
Mr. Pater, she's coughing again.
**[03:17] PATER**
Roll her onto her side.
**[03:19] PATER**
Don't let her choke on anything she spits up.
**[03:23] LEIF**
Pater, would it be possible to move Arnheid?
**[03:29] PATER**
We should be cautious with her now.
**[03:34] PATER**
We'd know how she's doing if she'd wake up,
**[03:38] PATER**
but honestly, not even I can tell
her condition right now.
**[03:45] PATER**
There's also the child inside her to consider.
**[03:48] PATER**
Rest is what she needs most right now,
**[03:52] PATER**
at least until she regains consciousness.
**[03:57] LEIF**
One day. Let's wait and see
how things go for just one more day.
**[04:04] MORS**
Are you serious?
**[04:06] MORS**
What about after that?
**[04:17] SPIDER**
Boss, hurry.
**[04:21] SNAKE**
North?
**[04:22] SPIDER**
Yes.
**[04:24] SPIDER**
Where I'm pointing.
**[04:30] SNAKE**
They're here sooner than expected.
**[04:33] SNAKE**
Notify the master!
**[04:35] SNAKE**
Ships have been spotted
in the sea to the north!
**[04:38] SNAKE**
The king's forces have arrived.
**[06:30] BADGER**
Idiot, don't shoot unless you're told to!
**[06:33] BADGER**
You'll never reach them at this range.
**[06:35] BADGER**
Once they're closer, we'll fire off a—
**[06:51] BADGER**
Crap! Retreat, retreat!
**[06:55] BADGER**
Damn it!
**[06:57] BADGER**
How are they reaching us from so far away?
**[07:09] FLOKI**
Fan out and take control of the area!
**[07:12] FLOKI**
Aid His Majesty's landing!
**[07:25] CANUTE**
It seems Ketil intends to fight me.
**[07:31] CANUTE**
Send a messenger, Ulf.
**[07:33] CANUTE**
We'll take up position here
and await Ketil's response.
**[07:36] ULF**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[07:43] CANUTE**
This is good land.
**[07:45] CANUTE**
It'd be a shame to stain it with blood.
**[07:56] MESSENGER**
For the aforementioned reasons,
His Majesty, King Canute,
**[08:00] MESSENGER**
has sentenced the insurrectionist Ketil
and his clan to ten years of outlawry.
**[08:08] MESSENGER**
Though normally they would be
executed for their crimes,
**[08:12] MESSENGER**
Ketil's clan shall be allowed to live
thanks to His Majesty's kindness.
**[08:19] MESSENGER**
Humbly accept your punishment.
**[08:24] MESSENGER**
That's all. If you don't want to die,
then get out of the country.
**[08:29] MESSENGER**
We'll wait until tomorrow morning
for your response.
**[08:40] KETIL**
How could you useless lot
let them land without a fight?
**[08:46] KETIL**
Insurrectionist? Outlawry?
**[08:49] KETIL**
Don't push your luck, boy.
**[08:53] THORGIL**
I'm back.
**[08:56] KETIL**
Ah, Thorgil. How did Canute's forces look?
**[09:01] THORGIL**
They were cooking and eating
their lunch at leisure.
**[09:06] THORGIL**
Two warships, two cargo ships.
**[09:09] THORGIL**
They've pitched tents
right next to their landing site.
**[09:12] THORGIL**
There are about 100 of them.
**[09:17] KETIL**
100?
**[09:19] THORGIL**
Yeah, excluding slaves and servants.
**[09:28] KETIL**
That's less than a third of our numbers.
**[09:34] KETIL**
Did Canute think we'd kneel
if the king himself came?
**[09:41] KETIL**
This land is full of reckless men
who won't yield to the king.
**[09:47] KETIL**
Muster your courage, men!
**[09:49] KETIL**
Whoever brings me the king's head
will receive whatever he wants!
**[09:58] THORGIL**
What fools.
**[10:02] SNAKE**
That's not just any 100 men.
**[10:06] SNAKE**
The guys around the big tent are thegns.
**[10:12] FOX**
Y-You mean the king's really here?
**[10:17] SNAKE**
And if they're the king's guard,
they're among the strongest men in Denmark.
**[10:23] SNAKE**
They're Thorgil's former brothers-in-arms.
**[10:26] FOX**
I-In other words,
**[10:30] FOX**
they're all about as strong as Thorgil?
**[10:35] FOX**
Wh-What about the guys in white capes?
**[10:39] FOX**
Are they weaker than the king's guard?
**[10:42] SNAKE**
You mean you've never seen them before?
**[10:46] SNAKE**
Those are Jomsvikings.
**[10:53] SNAKE**
I've never seen you
open your eyes so wide before.
**[11:01] SNAKE**
We can't beat them.
**[11:05] SNAKE**
They far outclass our ragtag
group of peasant soldiers.
**[11:10] SNAKE**
They're the kind of guys who think about war
and nothing else from morning 'til night.
**[11:16] SNAKE**
The master won't understand that
until we fight them once.
**[11:22] SNAKE**
If you want to run, then run.
**[11:25] SNAKE**
King Canute has given us time to flee.
**[11:29] FOX**
B-Boss, what are you going to do?
**[11:33] SNAKE**
I'm the commander. I can't run.
**[11:37] SNAKE**
I'll do my best to keep as many of
those 350 cocky idiots alive as I can.
**[11:44] FOX**
Th-Then let's tie up Ketil's clan
and hand them over.
**[11:51] BADGER**
Yeah, then we won't have to fight.
**[11:54] RAT**
Are we going to tie up Thorgil, too?
**[11:57] FOX**
Don't be a wuss.
I bet eight of us could take him.
**[12:01] MOLE**
Thorgil isn't the only problem.
**[12:04] MOLE**
There's also the renowned Iron Fist Ketil.
**[12:07] MOLE**
You heard he beat a bear to
death with his bare hands, right?
**[12:13] FOX**
Run away with us, boss.
**[12:17] FOX**
There's no point in being stubborn.
**[12:23] SNAKE**
Iron Fist, huh?
**[12:27] SNAKE**
I know all about the Iron Fist.
**[12:31] SNAKE**
I met him when I was around 15 or 16.
**[12:35] SNAKE**
He taught me how to fight on the battlefield.
**[12:38] SNAKE**
He was insanely strong.
**[12:42] SNAKE**
He was like an older brother or boss to me.
**[12:48] SNAKE**
Years ago, I screwed up.
**[12:52] SNAKE**
I ended up on the run.
**[12:55] SNAKE**
I thought Ketil would shelter me.
**[12:59] SNAKE**
I followed the rumors to this farm.
**[13:05] SNAKE**
But when I finally arrived...
**[13:11] (Flashback) KETIL**
Who are you? Do you have business with me?
**[13:16] SNAKE**
...I found a completely different person.
**[13:23] FOX**
Wh-What? Seriously?
**[13:27] SNAKE**
The master's full of shit.
**[13:30] SNAKE**
He's taking advantage of the fact
that they share the same name.
**[13:34] FOX**
That's appalling.
**[13:36] WILD DOG**
I'm amazed he's never been
exposed before now.
**[13:39] SNAKE**
With nowhere else to go,
I've stayed here as his guard dog.
**[13:48] SNAKE**
I've been getting a free ride
for long enough.
**[13:53] SNAKE**
It's time to pay my tab.
**[14:07] SNAKE**
You boys do what you want.
**[14:10] SNAKE**
All I meant is that the master is
a con artist not worth dying for.
**[14:18] SNAKE**
Take care.
**[14:41] SNAKE**
Don't try to show off, idiots.
**[14:44] SNAKE**
You'll die before you get
the chance to pay off your tabs.
**[14:47] FOX**
Sh-Sh-Shut up!
**[14:50] FOX**
Dine-and-dashing on a con artist
would make us absolute scumbags.
**[14:57] FOX**
We'll work to earn our board.
**[15:04] SNAKE**
Don't go telling anyone else
what I just told you.
**[15:37] THORGIL**
Their backs are to the sea.
**[15:40] THORGIL**
The king's forces have formed two lines here.
**[15:44] THORGIL**
This circle is King Canute.
**[15:46] THORGIL**
They've beached their ships, and their
backs are completely undefended.
**[15:53] THORGIL**
They know we don't have proper forces.
**[15:59] THORGIL**
The terrain provides good visibility.
Surprise attacks won't work.
**[16:04] THORGIL**
Olmar, how would you attack?
**[16:07] OLMAR**
What? U-Uh, at night?
**[16:11] THORGIL**
Wrong. Only first-class soldiers
attack at night.
**[16:16] THORGIL**
Amateurs can't pull that off.
**[16:19] THORGIL**
They're useless pieces of shit.
**[16:23] THORGIL**
They'll all be dead by the time
you count to 100.
**[16:26] OLMAR**
Wh-What? Then why did
we bother gathering them?
**[16:34] THORGIL**
You amateur.
**[16:35] THORGIL**
Isn't it obvious?
**[16:39] THORGIL**
They'll draw the king's attention
while you're counting to 100.
**[16:59] KETIL**
Thorgil! Where are you, Thorgil?
**[17:04] KETIL**
This is an important moment.
**[17:07] SNAKE**
Master, everyone's ready.
**[17:10] KETIL**
All right. Fire on my command.
**[17:15] KETIL**
Draw!
**[17:19] SNAKE**
Master, this is my final warning.
**[17:23] SNAKE**
If we fight, we'll lose.
**[17:26] KETIL**
Enough, Snake.
**[17:28] KETIL**
The great Iron Fist Ketil is a match
for that youngster in every way.
**[17:38] KETIL**
Fire!
**[17:55] THORFINN**
It's started.
**[18:01] THORFINN**
Stay safe, Mister Pater.
**[18:06] THORFINN**
Damn it!
**[18:11] THORFINN**
It's all right. Let's keep going.
**[18:14] THORFINN**
Both forces are locked in combat.
**[18:19] EINAR**
Slowly. Try not to shake the wagon.
**[18:28] BUG-EYES**
Don't blame me for whatever happens.
**[18:30] BUG-EYES**
This is theft, isn't it? I'm a thief now...
**[18:35] LEIF**
Don't worry about it.
We left behind enough to pay for her.
**[18:40] BUG-EYES**
You get things done when you need to, huh?
**[18:44] LEIF**
She's Thorfinn's friend.
We can't abandon her.
**[18:47] LEIF**
If she stays here, she'll be killed.
**[18:57] THORFINN**
We didn't get to say goodbye
to the old master.
**[19:36] GARDAR**
Are the children asleep?
**[19:44] ARNHEID**
Yes.
**[19:47] ARNHEID**
The rocking of the cart
puts them to sleep so quickly.
**[20:00] GARDAR**
Are you afraid?
**[20:03] GARDAR**
Don't worry.
We'll be out of these dark woods soon.
**[20:09] GARDAR**
This place is a heap of pain and despair.
**[20:14] GARDAR**
A forest of beasts who thirst for blood.
**[20:18] GARDAR**
Not a place to foster life.
**[20:24] GARDAR**
We have a warm home waiting for us.
**[20:30] GARDAR**
It's been a long and difficult road.
**[20:34] GARDAR**
But that pain will end soon.
**[20:40] ARNHEID**
Yes.
**[20:43] ARNHEID**
You're right.
**[20:59] ARNHEID**
But...
**[21:03] ARNHEID**
They're still here.
**[21:08] ARNHEID**
Lives still try to survive here.
**[21:18] ARNHEID**
Gardar?
**[21:21] GARDAR**
Tell them—the ones who
looked after you—farewell.
**[21:33] GARDAR**
I'll be waiting for you here
with the children.
**[21:43] ARNHEID**
You're right.
**[21:45] ARNHEID**
I need to thank Einar and the others.
**[21:56] EINAR**
S-Stop! Stop the cart!
**[22:00] EINAR**
It's me. Do you recognize me?
**[22:02] EINAR**
How are you feeling?
**[22:07] ARNHEID**
Einar...
**[22:19] FLOKI**
Advance 50 paces!
**[22:21] FLOKI**
Be thorough. Show them your superiority.
**[22:37] ULF**
The Jomsvikings certainly are impressive.
**[22:40] ULF**
Not even a single
thin line of 70 men crumbles.
**[22:46] CANUTE**
We won't need the rearguard.
**[22:48] CANUTE**
Use the second line of thegns to capture Ketil.
**[22:52] ULF**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[22:53] KETIL**
Don't retreat! Charge in there!
**[22:56] KETIL**
Show some backbone!
**[23:00] KETIL**
Damn it. Where are my sons?
**[23:21] OLMAR**
I c-can't swim with a sword on my back.
**[23:31] OLMAR**
I can't do it, Brother.
**[23:37] OLMAR**
I can't be like you.
**[24:06] THORGIL**
I'm behind you, King Canute.

**[00:18] FOX**
*In my life, I've killed 13 people.*
**[00:26] FOX**
* Compared to the average idiot,*
* I think I'm pretty strong.*
**[00:34] FOX**
*Killing is fun.*
**[00:40] FOX**
* The look on the face of*
* that posturing jarl's brat...*
**[00:48] FOX**
*That's how I know.*
**[00:51] FOX**
*This row of enemies in front of me...*
**[01:05] FOX**
*I'm scared! I'm scared, I'm scared...*
**[01:08] FOX**
*But damn it... they're enjoying this.*
**[01:26] BADGER**
Fuck!
**[01:32] FOX**
Gudmund!
**[01:37] FOX**
*M-My legs...*
**[01:41] FOX**
*Ah, they're going to kill Badger.*
**[01:45] FOX**
*I don't believe it.*
**[01:47] FOX**
* How's he able to get so close*
* to the Jomsvikings?*
**[02:02] FOX**
Boss?
**[02:04] SNAKE**
Fox, take Badger and fall back to the fort!
**[02:10] SNAKE**
All forces, retreat!
**[02:13] BADGER**
Re—?! You can't be serious!
**[02:16] BADGER**
I can still fight!
**[02:18] SNAKE**
Enough, Badger! Look around you!
**[02:21] SNAKE**
Damn it. Did all these men have to die for him
to know how much stronger the enemy is?
**[02:28] FOX**
Retreat!
**[02:31] RETAINERS**
What? Retreat?
**[02:32] RETAINERS**
All right!
**[02:36] RETAINER A**
Don't bunch up! Spread out and flee!
**[02:40] RETAINER B**
Wait for me! My legs...
**[02:44] KETIL**
Retreat? I didn't order a retreat!
**[02:48] KETIL**
Where's your honor?
And you call yourself Norse men!
**[02:53] RETAINERS**
W-Wait up!
**[02:58] KETIL**
I told you not to run.
**[03:01] KETIL**
You think I'll forgive your debt after this?
**[03:08] RETAINER C**
Debt? Either way,
you're finished, Mister Ketil.
**[03:15] RETAINER C**
Do you understand what
it's like to be poor like us now?
**[03:21] RETAINER C**
No matter how unfair it may be,
you shouldn't defy the king.
**[03:28] RETAINER C**
It's the same reason we've
always listened to you!
**[03:34] RETAINER C**
Might makes right, Mister Ketil.
**[03:38] RETAINER C**
The world exists for people
stronger than you.
**[03:52] RETAINER C**
They're here!
**[04:04] CANUTE**
What is it, Wulf?
***SIGN*** Pain
***SIGN*** Pain
**[04:05] WULF**
Ah, Your Majesty.
**[04:08] WULF**
Someone who may have been Ketil
was just defeated by one of my men.
**[04:13] CANUTE**
How inept. My orders were to capture him.
**[04:18] WULF**
Yes, Your Majesty. I apologize.
**[04:21] WULF**
I'll go confirm what happened.
**[04:24] CANUTE**
The Jomsvikings are attacking
the backs of the fleeing soldiers.
**[04:27] CANUTE**
That goes against my orders as well.
**[04:30] CANUTE**
Tell Floki not to pursue them.
**[04:32] WULF**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[04:45] THORGIL**
* I'm not sure why,*
* but his guard captain left his side.*
**[04:49] THORGIL**
*This is my chance.*
**[04:55] CANUTE**
Treat the bodies with care.
**[04:58] CANUTE**
We'll return them to their families—
**[05:05] THORGIL**
King Canute, your head is mine!
**[06:53] GUARD**
Th-Thorgil!
**[06:55] GUARD**
Where'd you come from?
**[06:59] THORGIL**
From Helheim.
**[07:05] THORGIL**
I'm surprised.
**[07:07] THORGIL**
I didn't think you could block my swing.
**[07:10] THORGIL**
Your skills have improved, Your Majesty.
**[07:15] CANUTE**
*My right hand feels weak.*
**[07:17] CANUTE**
Did that single blow sprain it?
**[07:20] THORGIL**
Good.
**[07:22] THORGIL**
You're a commander worth killing.
**[07:39] THORGIL**
I wish we had time to play,
but I'm in a hurry.
**[07:46] THORGIL**
Your head is mine.
**[08:04] WULF**
Bastard! How dare you kick the king!
**[08:16] WULF**
Die!
**[08:34] WULF**
Your Majesty, give your sword to me.
**[08:36] WULF**
Please stand back.
**[08:38] THORGIL**
Damn it.
**[08:45] GUARD**
King's guard, fall back!
**[08:47] GUARD**
Defend the king!
**[08:53] THORGIL**
Damn it!
**[08:56] WULF**
Stop, Thorgil!
**[08:59] CANUTE**
Don't pursue him too far, Wulf.
**[09:01] CANUTE**
You're seriously injured as well.
**[09:04] CANUTE**
I let my guard down,
but more than that, he's a bold man.
**[09:12] CANUTE**
I wish he'd serve me again.
**[09:16] GUARD A**
King's guard, fall back!
**[09:19] GUARD A**
His Majesty is under attack!
**[09:22] GUARD A**
All forces, fall back!
**[09:24] GUARDS**
Run! Hurry!
**[09:29] GUARDS**
Your Majesty!
**[09:30] GUARDS**
Your Majesty!
**[09:31] SNAKE**
Wh-What's going on?
**[09:33] SNAKE**
Who would do something like that?
Was it Thorgil?
**[09:41] SNAKE**
That was close.
**[09:47] SNAKE**
Master, are you alive?
**[09:54] SNAKE**
Okay.
**[09:56] SNAKE**
Looks like those soldiers
didn't recognize you.
**[10:01] SNAKE**
You're a lucky man.
**[10:04] SNAKE**
Damn heavy, too.
**[10:09] SNAKE**
Don't think you can get off easy by dying.
**[10:14] SNAKE**
You have responsibilities as the
losing force's leader, Iron Fist Ketil.
**[10:38] ARNHEID**
I hear it...
**[10:45] ARNHEID**
The sound I heard when my village burned.
**[10:54] ARNHEID**
The sound of the world falling apart.
**[11:01] ARNHEID**
They're fighting, aren't they?
**[11:06] EINAR**
It's all right. Don't worry.
**[11:10] EINAR**
We aren't slaves anymore.
**[11:13] EINAR**
We're leaving this farm.
**[11:16] EINAR**
That battle has nothing to do with us.
**[11:26] ARNHEID**
Where will we go once we leave this place?
**[11:35] LEIF**
We can go to my village.
**[11:38] LEIF**
It's a bit cold, but it's a nice place.
**[11:45] ARNHEID**
Do you have slaves there?
**[11:51] ARNHEID**
Do you have wars?
**[11:58] LEIF**
Yes. Battles were fought there once.
**[12:03] LEIF**
I'd be lying if I said
it would never happen again.
**[12:11] ARNHEID**
I'm not going.
**[12:16] ARNHEID**
I'm going somewhere else.
**[12:23] ARNHEID**
Gardar and the children...
**[12:31] ARNHEID**
are waiting for me.
**[12:37] ARNHEID**
I just wanted to express my gratitude.
**[12:46] ARNHEID**
Thank you, Einar and Thorfinn.
**[12:53] ARNHEID**
Thank you.
**[13:01] ARNHEID**
I felt like I was wandering through
a terrible nightmare all alone.
**[13:15] ARNHEID**
But...
**[13:25] ARNHEID**
Our morning chats...
**[13:31] ARNHEID**
I enjoyed your stories, Einar...
**[13:39] EINAR**
No, Arnheid!
**[13:41] EINAR**
Hang in there, Arnheid!
**[13:45] EINAR**
Arnheid!
**[13:49] EINAR**
Didn't you say you'd protect
the child inside you?
**[13:55] EINAR**
Arnheid!
**[14:03] ARNHEID**
The child has already gone
to the other side.
**[14:14] ARNHEID**
They're all dead.
**[14:18] ARNHEID**
All of my loved ones.
**[14:22] ARNHEID**
What point is there in going on living?
**[14:30] ARNHEID**
There's nothing left for me here.
**[14:37] ARNHEID**
Why do I have to live?
**[14:46] EINAR**
I... Because... Because I...
**[14:58] EINAR**
Arnheid? Arnheid?
**[15:01] EINAR**
Arnheid!
**[15:02] THORFINN**
Move, Einar!
**[15:09] THORFINN**
My father taught me this technique to
bring someone back from the dead.
**[15:15] THORFINN**
Einar, speak to her as loudly as you can.
**[15:21] EINAR**
Arnheid, don't go!
**[15:24] EINAR**
I... I love you! I need you!
**[15:31] EINAR**
I want you to laugh at my stories again!
**[15:34] EINAR**
Please live!
**[15:38] EINAR**
Live with me again!
**[15:42] EINAR**
Please live!
**[15:58] THORFINN**
Einar, that's enough.
**[17:01] THORFINN**
Far to the west...
**[17:06] THORFINN**
and across the sea,
there's a place called Vinland.
**[17:16] THORFINN**
Warm and bountiful, it is a distant land,
**[17:20] THORFINN**
beyond the reach of slave-traders
and the flames of war.
**[17:27] THORFINN**
You would be able to live
without suffering there.
**[17:36] THORFINN**
Arnheid...
**[17:39] THORFINN**
Let's go there together.
**[17:44] THORFINN**
Let's build a peaceful nation in Vinland.
**[18:12] SNAKE**
It's you guys. What are you still doing here?
**[18:26] THORFINN**
Don't, Einar!
**[18:28] EINAR**
Ketil!
**[18:31] EINAR**
You! You killed Arnheid!
**[18:36] EINAR**
I'll kill you. I'll fucking kill you!
**[18:41] THORFINN**
Don't, Einar! Killing the master
won't help anything!
**[18:51] SNAKE**
I see. Arnheid is dead.
**[18:56] THORFINN**
Open your eyes, Einar!
**[18:58] THORFINN**
Please!
**[19:00] THORFINN**
Einar!
**[19:30] THORFINN**
Einar, killing the master
won't quell your rage.
**[19:40] THORFINN**
Anger begets more anger.
**[19:43] THORFINN**
It just results in deaths, one after another.
**[19:47] THORFINN**
I was stuck in that hell for a long time.
**[19:54] THORFINN**
Please, Einar.
**[19:58] THORFINN**
Don't fall under the same curse
that afflicted me.
**[20:38] BUG-EYES**
Dad...
**[20:39] LEIF**
I know. Get the ship ready to depart.
**[21:15] CANUTE**
* God... must be watching us,*
* even as we stand here now.*
**[21:29] CANUTE**
* People losing friends, and parents*
* and children killing each other...*
**[21:34] CANUTE**
* He must be looking down on everything*
* from up high in heaven.*
**[21:55] LEIF**
Thorfinn...
**[21:57] LEIF**
Wait. Where are you going?
**[22:00] LEIF**
Wait! What do you intend to do?
**[22:04] THORFINN**
I'm going to see Canute.
**[22:07] LEIF**
What?
**[22:09] THORFINN**
The master is still alive.
He hasn't been captured.
**[22:14] THORFINN**
The battle isn't over.
**[22:17] THORFINN**
I may be able to prevent more deaths.
**[22:21] LEIF**
That's ridiculous. We need to
leave this place immediately.
**[22:25] LEIF**
Why do you have to do this?
**[22:30] LEIF**
Thorfinn!
**[22:39] LEIF**
This time...
**[22:41] LEIF**
This time, please let me
take you back to Iceland.
**[22:48] LEIF**
Please.
**[22:54] THORFINN**
Long ago, you once told me...
**[23:01] THORFINN**
that our ancestors fled from war
and ended up in Iceland.
**[23:13] THORFINN**
At the time, I thought it was lame,
**[23:20] THORFINN**
but now, I'm really proud of them.
**[23:25] LEIF**
Thorfinn...
**[23:30] THORFINN**
I'd estimate Canute
only brought around 100 men.
**[23:36] THORFINN**
No matter how badly it turns out,
**[23:40] THORFINN**
I should be able to make it back alive.
**[23:55] LEIF**
We'll have the ship
ready to depart at any time.
**[24:00] LEIF**
Don't push yourself too hard!
**[24:02] LEIF**
We're going back to Iceland,
no matter what, Thorfinn!

**[00:29] ULF**
Is that the last one?
**[00:30] THEGN A**
Yes.
**[00:37] ULF**
I doubt Ketil's forces
have any will to fight left.
**[00:41] ULF**
I'll send a messenger
recommending they surrender.
**[00:45] FLOKI**
Your Majesty.
**[00:48] FLOKI**
Would it be all right if we
requisitioned some homes on the farm?
**[00:52] FLOKI**
My men are tired of camping out in tents.
**[00:56] CANUTE**
No.
**[00:58] CANUTE**
All forces are forbidden
from entering the farm.
**[01:03] CANUTE**
If the soldiers enter the village,
they'll begin pillaging.
**[01:06] FLOKI**
Pillaging is the victor's right.
**[01:10] VANUTE**
The goal of this battle is to requisition
the entire farm, not pillage it.
**[01:17] CANUTE**
I shall provide the Jomsvikings
with an adequate reward.
**[01:25] FLOKI**
As you command.
**[01:38] SWEYN**
You're showing them mercy now, Canute?
**[01:45] SWEYN**
You are right. This is what a king does.
**[01:52] SWEYN**
To achieve his grand purpose,
**[01:54] SWEYN**
he spares those who should live,
and slays those he must kill.
**[02:00] SWEYN**
The masses could never bear
such a heavy responsibility.
**[02:05] SWEYN**
This world is still far from
being a paradise. It's hell.
**[02:10] SWEYN**
And hell has its own laws.
**[02:15] SWEYN**
Canute, you killed your
father and your brother.
**[02:23] SWEYN**
Keep killing until your
corpse-lined road reaches paradise.
**[03:09] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
Thank you, Einar and Thorfinn.
**[03:17] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
Thank you.

It's no use. He's already dead.

I need hot water over here.
**[05:57] RETAINER A**
Kill me!
**[06:00] ODONI**
Young master...
**[06:06] ODONI**
Young master...
**[06:11] ODONI**
My father's hands are gone.
**[06:25] FATHER**
Y-Y-Young master, please look
after my daughter and family.
**[06:45] BRODD**
You can't even cut a pig.
**[06:59] ODONI**
Young master?
**[07:08] ODONI**
Young master!
**[07:16] ODONI**
Are you all right?
**[07:18] ODONI**
Are you injured as well?
**[07:23] ODONI**
Is it your stomach? Does your stomach hurt?
**[07:28] ODONI**
You should lie down.
**[07:44] SNAKE**
They have advised us to
surrender a second time.
**[07:48] SNAKE**
The entire clan surrendering is
their condition for a truce.
**[07:53] SNAKE**
You'll still be subjected to outlawry.
**[07:58] SNAKE**
You need to decide if we'll
continue fighting or surrender.
**[08:03] MISTRESS**
Y-You can't be serious!
**[08:06] MISTRESS**
I refuse to be banished from the country.
**[08:09] MISTRESS**
What do they expect us to do?
Leave this land and become beggars?
**[08:12] MISTRESS**
Snake, this happened because
you're a spineless coward.
**[08:18] MISTRESS**
You freeloader!
**[08:23] FOX**
Boss!
**[08:24] FOX**
You hag!
**[08:26] SNAKE**
Don't, Fox.
**[08:29] THORGIL**
If we say we'll keep fighting,
what will you do, Snake?
**[08:35] SNAKE**
Fight along with you.
**[08:39] THORGIL**
That's what I wanted to hear.
**[08:42] THORGIL**
Don't worry, Mom. I'll handle this.
**[08:45] THORGIL**
Twenty men is enough to take the king's head.
**[08:53] THORGIL**
Defeating a larger force with only a handful
of men is a glorious way for a man to go out.
**[08:59] SVERKEL**
Calm down, Thorgil.
**[09:01] SVERKEL**
That's not your decision to make.
**[09:04] THORGIL**
What? No, it's gotta be me.
**[09:08] THORGIL**
Dad's out of it.
**[09:10] THORGIL**
Are you saying you want to decide, Grandpa?
**[09:13] SVERKEL**
It's not my decision, either.
**[09:16] SVERKEL**
There's someone Ketil named as his successor.
**[09:48] OLMAR**
We'll surrender.
**[09:51] MISTRESS**
What?
**[09:51] MISTRESS**
How could you say that?
**[09:54] MISTRESS**
Doesn't that embarrass you as a Norse man?
**[10:03] OLMAR**
It's embarrassing.
**[10:05] OLMAR**
It's embarrassing, but...
**[10:09] OLMAR**
I'm scared.
**[10:11] OLMAR**
I'm scared of people dying.
**[10:16] OLMAR**
I'm scared I might die.
**[10:20] OLMAR**
They can banish me or do
whatever else they want with me.
**[10:23] OLMAR**
I just want this to be over.
**[10:29] THORGIL**
You can't be serious, Olmar.
**[10:31] THORGIL**
You wanted so badly to fight.
**[10:34] THORGIL**
You're the one who started this war.
**[10:38] OLMAR**
That's right. It's my fault.
**[10:42] OLMAR**
They mocked me for screwing up.
**[10:46] OLMAR**
I got mad and tried to show off.
**[10:50] OLMAR**
I'm sorry to Mom and everyone else.
**[10:53] OLMAR**
But because I started this,
I want to end this.
**[11:02] THORGIL**
Sorry, I misspoke.
**[11:07] THORGIL**
The king wanted this farm from the start.
**[11:11] OLMAR**
But I gave them an excuse to start a war.
**[11:16] THORGIL**
People will always find a reason to fight.
**[11:21] THORGIL**
If it wasn't you, it would've been me or Dad.
**[11:24] THORGIL**
You defended your honor then.
**[11:28] THORGIL**
Right, Olmar? You did good.
**[11:31] THORGIL**
Your honor is more important than your life.
**[11:34] THORGIL**
Show us the courage of a
Norse warrior one more time.
**[11:39] OLMAR**
No!
**[11:44] OLMAR**
That's not courage!
**[11:48] OLMAR**
I screwed up in the presence of the king.
**[11:53] OLMAR**
I'm an incompetent man
who deserves to be mocked.
**[11:57] OLMAR**
But...
**[12:01] OLMAR**
But...
**[12:05] OLMAR**
I didn't have the courage to
silently accept their mockery.
**[12:20] OLMAR**
I can't be like you, Brother.
**[12:26] OLMAR**
I don't care about
the honor of Norse warriors.
**[12:31] OLMAR**
I'm going to surrender.
**[12:34] OLMAR**
Mock me if you want.
**[12:48] SVERKEL**
The acting head of the family
has made his decision.
**[12:52] SVERKEL**
Olmar, go tell King Canute your decision.
**[13:02] SNAKE**
I'll go with you.
**[13:10] SNAKE**
I won't mock you, young master.
**[13:19] THORGIL**
I don't have time for this crap.
**[13:23] THORGIL**
Move. You're in the way.
**[13:26] SNAKE**
Wait. Where are you going, Thorgil?
**[13:29] THORGIL**
Shut up.
**[13:31] THORGIL**
Later, cowards.
**[13:47] SVERKEL**
It's true that many have been
supported by your strength.
**[13:55] SVERKEL**
But I know you've seen it, too.
**[14:00] SVERKEL**
How those possessed by
wealth and power end up.
**[14:11] SVERKEL**
But you haven't lost all of this for nothing.
**[14:17] SVERKEL**
In exchange for your farm,
your son has become a man.
**[14:35] (Flashback) EINAR**
Why?
**[14:37] (Flashback) EINAR**
Why did you let him go?
**[14:39] (Flashback) EINAR**
Haven't you been looking for
Thorfinn all this time?
**[14:43] (Flashback) EINAR**
Didn't you come here to
take Thorfinn back home?
**[14:50] (Flashback) LEIF**
You're right. That oath has
kept me going all this time.
**[14:58] (Flashback) LEIF**
No matter how many times I lost him,
I kept looking for him.
**[15:05] (Flashback) LEIF**
I won't break my oath to my friend.
**[15:09] (Flashback) LEIF**
But Thorfinn is being moved by
something bigger than that now.
**[15:16] (Flashback) LEIF**
Thorfinn said he'd come back.
**[15:21] (Flashback) LEIF**
I trust what I saw in those eyes.
**[15:28] EINAR**
*Thorfinn...*
**[15:55] DROTT**
So, what? You're not part of
Ketil's clan, shorty?
**[16:02] THORFINN**
My name is Thorfinn, son of Thors.
**[16:05] THORFINN**
I'm a retainer on this farm.
**[16:09] THORFINN**
I've come representing Ketil,
the owner of the farm.
**[16:12] THORFINN**
Please inform His Majesty
that I'm here to see him.
**[16:15] DROTT**
A retainer? You're a slave, aren't you?
**[16:21] DROTT**
You can always tell when someone's a slave.
**[16:24] DROTT**
They stink like livestock.
**[16:32] DROTT**
You're not good enough.
**[16:35] DROTT**
We'll just keep fighting until
someone from Ketil's clan shows up.
**[16:42] THORFINN**
I've met His Majesty before.
**[16:46] THORFINN**
He should know who I am
if you tell him my name.
**[16:49] THORFINN**
Please let him know Thorfinn,
son of Thors, is here.
**[17:00] DROTT**
You and King Canute know each other?
**[17:06] THORFINN**
About four years ago,
I served as his guard for a short while.
**[17:24] DROTT**
Did that wake you up, shorty?
**[17:27] DROTT**
I've never seen a guard
as stinky and small as you.
**[17:33] THORFINN**
If I offended you, then I apologize.
**[17:36] THORFINN**
But it's true.
**[17:38] THORFINN**
Please tell His Majesty my name.
**[17:41] THORFINN**
Please.
**[17:43] THEGN B**
What's the matter, Drott?
**[17:45] THEGN B**
He's still talking nonsense.
**[17:47] THEGN C**
Apparently your punch was too weak.
**[17:52] DROTT**
You don't wake easily.
**[17:54] DROTT**
You must want me to get you up
gently like your mommy did, huh?
**[18:02] THEGNS**
Get him!
**[18:03] THEGNS**
You've got this, shorty!
**[18:05] THEGNS**
Come on!
**[18:09] CANUTE**
Did you determine
what the commotion is about?
**[18:11] ULF**
Yes, Your Majesty. Ketil sent a messenger.
**[18:16] ULF**
Since Ketil himself hasn't come to surrender,
my men are attempting to send him away,
**[18:21] ULF**
but he seems to be rather stubborn.
**[18:25] CANUTE**
Did you get his name and status?
**[18:27] ULF**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[18:29] ULF**
He identified himself as a retainer on
the farm named Thorfinn, son of Thors.
**[18:41] CANUTE**
Is he a young and small man?
**[18:45] ULF**
Yes, indeed.
**[18:48] ULF**
Do you know him?
**[18:54] THEGNS**
Get him!
**[18:58] ULF**
What would you like to do,
Your Majesty? Will you see him?
**[19:06] CANUTE**
No, that won't be necessary.
**[19:14] FLOKI**
*Son of Thors...*
**[19:17] FLOKI**
*Yeah, right.*
**[19:19] THEGNS**
Kill him!
**[19:20] THEGNS**
Hit him back, shorty!
**[19:21] THEGNS**
The eyes! Go for the eyes!
**[19:25] THORFINN**
Wait. I don't want to fight.
**[19:31] THEGN D**
Oh? He's got some moves.
**[19:38] THEGN F**
What's the matter, Drott?
**[19:39] THEGN F**
You haven't hit him yet.
**[19:40] THEGN G**
Get your shit together!
**[19:44] THORFINN**
*Damn. I underestimated them.*
**[19:47] THORFINN**
*In any case, I need to change the situation.*
**[19:51] THEGN I**
Hit him already, Drott.
**[19:53] THEGN I**
We can't settle our wagers like this.
**[20:01] THEGN J**
All right!
**[20:02] THEGN K**
That's the first one!
**[20:05] THEGNS**
Get him!
**[20:05] THEGNS**
He's still looking lively!
**[20:08] THEGNS**
Kill him!
**[20:09] EINAR**
Damn it.
**[20:11] EINAR**
Thorfinn!
**[20:13] EINAR**
Are you all right?
**[20:14] THORFINN**
Einar, what are you doing here?
**[20:17] EINAR**
You idiot. I came here to
stop you, obviously.
**[20:22] THORFINN**
Sorry.
**[20:26] EINAR**
Just get up. We're getting out of here.
**[20:30] EINAR**
There's no point in talking to these guys.
**[20:33] THEGN A**
Come on, pay up.
**[20:37] THEGN**
Thank you.
**[20:42] EINAR**
Thorfinn?
**[20:43] THORFINN**
What are you betting on?
**[20:48] THEGN L**
We're betting on how many punches
it'll take for you to run away crying.
**[20:53] THEGN M**
Including unconsciousness or death.
**[20:56] THEGN L**
The most popular bet is fewer than ten.
**[20:59] THEGN L**
A few have bet on more than 20.
**[21:03] THEGN N**
Come on, you've got this.
**[21:05] THEGN O**
One more hit, and you can go to sleep.
**[21:06] THEGN P**
Hang in there until you've taken ten.
**[21:09] EINAR**
They're unbelievable.
**[21:12] THORFINN**
I'd like in on that bet, too.
**[21:16] THORFINN**
I'll bet on myself.
**[21:21] THORFINN**
I don't need money if I win. Instead...
**[21:27] THORFINN**
I'd just like to talk to His Majesty.
**[21:35] THEGN L**
Did you guys hear that?
**[21:37] THEGN L**
Shorty just proposed
something real interesting.
**[21:41] THEGN L**
All right, fine. I like your guts.
**[21:44] THEGN L**
But we're not letting you get away
with betting on fewer than ten.
**[21:50] THEGN L**
What has no one bet on yet?
**[21:52] THEGN I**
Well, at least one person's bet on
everything up to the nineties.
**[21:59] THEGN L**
100, then.
**[22:01] THEGN L**
If you can withstand 100 blows, you win.
**[22:05] THEGN L**
If you lose, we'll take your life.
**[22:10] THORFINN**
Fine.
**[22:11] EINAR**
What? You...
**[22:13] EINAR**
Thorfinn!
**[22:15] EINAR**
Do you have to risk that much for Ketil?
**[22:20] EINAR**
This is war.
**[22:23] EINAR**
There's nothing one man can do about it.
**[22:25] EINAR**
Leave this fight to the ones who want it.
**[22:32] THORFINN**
I'm glad I ended up on this farm.
**[22:41] THORFINN**
I only knew war, but the master,
Pater, and the old master...
**[22:50] THORFINN**
They didn't forsake me. They were kind to me.
**[22:55] THORFINN**
I got to meet you, too.
**[23:01] THORFINN**
You understand that, don't you?
**[23:05] THORFINN**
Are you okay with not returning
the kindness we received?
**[23:17] EINAR**
Thorfinn...
**[23:18] THORFINN**
It's all right, Einar.
**[23:21] THORFINN**
There's a trick to getting hit.
**[23:24] THORFINN**
And I'm used to getting hit.
**[23:28] THEGNS**
Seriously?
**[23:30] THEGNS**
That's it, shorty!
**[23:31] THEGNS**
Get that big idiot!
**[23:36] THEGNS**
He thinks you're a wimp, Drott!
**[23:39] THEGNS**
Is your size just for show?
**[23:41] THEGNS**
Beat him already!
**[23:45] DROTT**
The great Drott the Bear Killer has
never been mocked like this before.
**[23:53] DROTT**
I'll kill you.
**[23:56] THEGNS**
Is he stupid? He's gonna die!
**[23:59] THEGNS**
Make him last at least 20 hits!
**[24:02] THEGNS**
Kill him!

Damn it.
**[02:55] ULF**
*I see. That messenger certainly

**[03:01] ULF**
*He's twisting his neck and hips

**[04:30] SNAKE**
Hey, you.

Thorfinn?
**[04:37] SNAKE**
Hey, stop!
**[04:39] THEGNS**
What's this about?
**[04:41] SNAKE**
He's got nothing to do with the farm!

All right! That was a solid hit!

**[05:16] THEGN**
Is he dead?
**[05:19] EINAR**
Thorfinn!
**[05:29] SNAKE**
What are you two doing?
**[05:30] SNAKE**
I thought you left the farm already.
**[05:33] SNAKE**
How did this happen?
**[05:38] EINAR**
If he can endure 100 of his punches,
he'll be allowed to speak directly to the king.
**[05:46] EINAR**
That's the promise they made.
**[05:51] SNAKE**
That's ridiculous.
**[05:53] SNAKE**
He's doing this for the farm?
**[06:01] SNAKE**
Enough of this. No more.
**[06:04] SNAKE**
The farm will surrender.
The decision's been made.
**[06:10] SNAKE**
You idiot. You're unbelievably softhearted.
**[06:17] SNAKE**
If talking could've resolved this,
we'd have done that already.
**[06:26] THORFINN**
Are you sure about that?
**[06:33] THORFINN**
Did you really put in the effort
**[06:39] THORFINN**
to resolve this through conversation?
**[06:50] THORFINN**
Once they drew their swords,
**[06:54] THORFINN**
you merely answered with your
own blades without thinking.
**[07:00] THEGN B**
That's 32 hits. We're handing out winnings.
**[07:01] THEGNS**
Is he getting back up?
**[07:04] THEGN C**
Hey, wait a second.
**[07:19] THORFINN**
Why are you just standing there, middle-part?
**[07:24] THORFINN**
Your fists hurt less than
being bitten by a bug!
**[07:29] THORFINN**
Sixty-eight more. Get it over with.
**[07:34] THORFINN**
I'm a busy man.
**[07:37] THORFINN**
People are waiting for me!
**[07:54] SNAKE**
Don't! This battle is already—
**[07:58] SNAKE**
Einar, if he keeps this up, he'll die.
**[08:40] DROTT**
Ninety-eight...
**[08:48] DROTT**
Ninety-nine...
**[08:58] DROTT**
One hundred.
**[09:29] DROTT**
Thorfinn, son of Thors.
**[09:34] DROTT**
I'm sorry I doubted you.
**[09:38] DROTT**
You...
**[09:41] DROTT**
You are a true warrior.
**[09:51] DROTT**
Chief Thegn...
**[09:53] DROTT**
This man once guarded His Majesty as we do.
**[09:59] DROTT**
Please permit Thorfinn
an audience with the king.
**[10:13] ULF**
You're small, but you're well-trained, Thorfinn.
**[10:18] ULF**
Why didn't you strike back?
**[10:22] ULF**
Beating Drott would have proven
that you are a former guard.
**[10:31] THORFINN**
What kind of question is that?
**[10:34] THORFINN**
I can't hit someone when
I'm trying to negotiate for peace.
**[10:39] THORFINN**
I just met all of you today.
**[10:44] THORFINN**
We don't know anything about each other.
**[10:47] THORFINN**
We have no reason to hate each other.
**[10:50] THORFINN**
So why do we have to
hit each other? It's stupid.
**[10:55] THORFINN**
It's just Canute and Ketil
who are feuding with each other.
**[10:59] THORFINN**
The two leaders could settle this
over a game of hnefatafl.
**[11:05] THORFINN**
There's no need to gather all these men
and shed all this blood.
**[11:15] THORFINN**
We just met today.
**[11:20] THORFINN**
You are not my enemies.
**[11:36] THORFINN**
I don't have any enemies.
**[11:49] ULF**
You're a bold man to reject war while
surrounded by this many professional soldiers.
**[11:59] ULF**
But...
**[12:02] ULF**
Ketil and His Majesty
should play hnefatafl, huh?
**[12:06] THORFINN**
What's so funny?
**[12:07] ULF**
Sorry. You should try suggesting
that to His Majesty yourself.
**[12:15] ULF**
He doesn't go to war because he wants to.
**[12:20] ULF**
Once you see him and hear what he has to say,
you'll realize what's in his heart.
**[12:29] ULF**
Clear the way.
**[12:30] ULF**
I'm permitting this messenger
an audience with His Majesty.
**[12:43] THORFINN**
Come on, Einar.
**[12:48] THORFINN**
We're going to see the man who starts wars.
**[12:52] THORFINN**
Don't you have things
you want to say to him, too?
**[12:56] EINAR**
Y-Yeah.
**[12:58] EINAR**
You bet I do. A whole mountain of them.
**[13:39] EINAR**
Are all of them casualties of this battle?
**[13:45] THORFINN**
Don't look, Einar.
**[13:49] EINAR**
Pater...
**[13:52] THORFINN**
Don't look.
**[13:53] THORFINN**
If you find Pater among the dead,
you won't be able to remain calm.
**[14:32] CANUTE**
Very well. I'll see him.
**[14:35] CANUTE**
I'll respect the feelings of
yourself and the men.
**[14:37] ULF**
Thank you.
**[14:40] ULF**
Messenger, approach.
**[15:13] CANUTE**
So you're still alive.
**[15:16] CANUTE**
It's been a while, Thorfinn.
**[15:22] CANUTE**
You must hate me for making you a slave...
**[15:28] CANUTE**
No... for what happened to Askeladd.
**[15:40] THORFINN**
I'm still alive after drawing
a blade against Danish royalty.
**[15:47] THORFINN**
I appreciate the consideration you showed me.
**[15:52] THORFINN**
I'm sorry about the scar on your face.
**[15:57] ULF**
*He's the man who scarred His Majesty's face?*
**[16:01] ULF**
*Thorfinn Karlsefni...*
**[16:04] ULF**
*The man said to have been
an even match for Thorkell in combat.*
**[16:09] ULF**
*I had no idea he was so small and young.*
**[16:13] EINAR**
You drew a blade against the king?
**[16:19] CANUTE**
It's impossible to tell
who you are with that face,
**[16:22] CANUTE**
but you seem to be the Thorfinn I know.
**[16:25] CANUTE**
You've come to say some commendable things.
**[16:33] CANUTE**
Four years, huh?
**[16:37] CANUTE**
It's already been four years since then.
**[16:42] CANUTE**
That's enough time for a person to change.
**[16:54] THORFINN**
Canute, I'd like you to leave the farm.
**[16:58] CANUTE**
I can't do that.
**[17:01] CANUTE**
Ketil's clan started this dispute.
**[17:05] CANUTE**
Ketil's son Olmar killed ten of my men because
I wouldn't make him one of my thegns.
**[17:13] THORFINN**
I've heard about that.
**[17:15] THORFINN**
But you've made your point.
**[17:18] THORFINN**
More than 100 of the farm's men have died.
**[17:21] THORFINN**
This region may not be able to recover
now that so many of its workers are dead.
**[17:28] CANUTE**
I advised them to surrender.
**[17:32] CANUTE**
It's Ketil's fault for miscalculating the
difference in the strength of our forces.
**[17:36] CANUTE**
This battle cannot end until
Ketil's clan has been dealt with.
**[17:43] EINAR**
In other words, it won't end
until you've captured this farm.
**[17:49] EINAR**
Make all the excuses you want.
You can't hide it.
**[17:52] EINAR**
You call yourself a king,
but you're actually just a thief.
**[17:57] EINAR**
How are you any different
from the average Viking chief?
**[18:04] EINAR**
If you want a farm that badly,
then start one yourself.
**[18:09] EINAR**
Till the land, watch over it,
and raise your own crops.
**[18:14] EINAR**
Then you'll understand firsthand
**[18:17] EINAR**
what a terrible thing it is to
take that from someone else.
**[18:27] THORFINN**
Canute.
**[18:29] THORFINN**
You once told me at Gainsborough...
**[18:34] THORFINN**
that you'd build a paradise in this place.
**[18:37] THORFINN**
A utopia for those who suffer.
**[18:44] THORFINN**
Do you still believe that?
**[18:50] CANUTE**
A chief, huh?
**[18:53] CANUTE**
Indeed. I am the chief of Viking chiefs.
**[19:01] CANUTE**
I am the sovereign king...
**[19:03] CANUTE**
The most powerful Viking on the North Sea.
**[19:08] CANUTE**
The ruler of the largest territory
in Northern Europe.
**[19:12] CANUTE**
The commander who leads a
thousand ships and ten thousand men.
**[19:16] CANUTE**
My power exceeds human understanding
and makes the impossible possible.
**[19:25] CANUTE**
Behold.
**[19:27] CANUTE**
With my power, I shall stop those waves.
**[19:34] CANUTE**
In the name of King Canute,
waves, I command you to stop.
**[19:57] CANUTE**
Did you bear witness to my strength?
**[20:03] CANUTE**
I am powerless to stop
even the approaching waves.
**[20:08] CANUTE**
Do you know who drives those waves?
**[20:20] CANUTE**
God does.
**[20:23] CANUTE**
Building a paradise on Earth
means defying His logic.
**[20:31] CANUTE**
It's an act of rebellion against God.
**[20:35] CANUTE**
Humankind cannot find
happiness under God's rule.
**[20:42] THORFINN**
Rebellion...
**[20:44] CANUTE**
Look at us, Thorfinn.
**[20:48] CANUTE**
Look at us Vikings.
**[20:51] CANUTE**
We're responsible for this
chaos and destruction.
**[20:54] CANUTE**
We're fearsome raiders.
**[20:57] CANUTE**
Do you think we deserve to live in paradise?
**[21:02] CANUTE**
But that is what humans are.
**[21:06] CANUTE**
Committing sins as we wander lost
is precisely what humans do.
**[21:14] CANUTE**
Unless I save these people abandoned by God,
I'll never be able to build a paradise.
**[21:23] EINAR**
Save the Vikings?
**[21:27] CANUTE**
Yes.
**[21:29] CANUTE**
I am the only one capable of conquering them,
ruling them, unifying their strength,
**[21:37] CANUTE**
and directing them towards paradise.
**[21:41] CANUTE**
I need strength.
**[21:44] CANUTE**
I will unify the strength
of all humankind to fight God.
**[21:57] THORFINN**
*Canute is an incredible man.*
**[22:01] THORFINN**
*It never even occurred to me
to save the Vikings.*
**[22:08] EINAR**
I'm gonna knock this guy on his ass.
**[22:11] EINAR**
You're free to pursue
whatever huge goals you want.
**[22:16] EINAR**
But who's gonna save all the people
you kill today for your goals?
**[22:22] EINAR**
Will you let the Vikings live
because they can help you,
**[22:25] EINAR**
while killing and stealing from people
who aren't useful to you?
**[22:29] EINAR**
Building a paradise, my ass!
**[22:34] EINAR**
King Ethelred burned down my village,
and King Sweyn killed my family.
**[22:42] EINAR**
I don't care what their ideals were.
**[22:48] EINAR**
I've had enough.
**[22:50] EINAR**
I refuse to suffer any more because of you.
**[23:01] CANUTE**
Hate me if you must.
**[23:03] CANUTE**
I won't seek your forgiveness.
**[23:07] EINAR**
What did you say?
**[23:11] THORFINN**
Don't, Einar.
**[23:18] THORFINN**
Canute, I'll ask you again.
**[23:21] THORFINN**
You really have no intention
of leaving this farm?
**[23:24] CANUTE**
No. I need Ketil's wealth for my undertaking.
**[23:31] CANUTE**
What will you do, Thorfinn?
**[23:34] CANUTE**
Will you kill me here?
**[23:40] CANUTE**
For you cannot stop me unless you kill me.

**[02:05] EINAR**
Wow...
**[02:08] EINAR**
The rumors don't do it justice.
**[02:14] EINAR**
Iceland is a harsh land.
**[02:19] EINAR**
There are no trees at all.
**[02:24] EINAR**
The sun's so low in the sky.
**[02:29] EINAR**
I get it now. A land without farms, huh?
**[02:33] EINAR**
You can't grow anything
when the days are so short.
**[02:37] LEIF**
It's winter, after all.
**[02:40] LEIF**
During the summer, the days are long.
**[02:44] LEIF**
Some people grow wheat
where conditions are better,
**[02:49] LEIF**
but it's not nearly enough to fill the
stomachs of the island-dwellers.
**[02:54] EINAR**
Are all the island-dwellers
shepherds and ranchers, then?
**[02:58] LEIF**
No, there are craftsmen and fishermen, too.
**[03:03] LEIF**
There isn't enough pastureland
for everyone to raise livestock,
**[03:09] LEIF**
so some people live together and fish instead.
**[03:14] LEIF**
Thorfinn's village is one of those.
**[03:19] THORFINN**
Huh.
**[03:21] EINAR**
What does that mean? Didn't you live here?
**[03:25] THORFINN**
But I was just a child.
**[03:30] THORFINN**
I left home when I was around six years old.
**[03:33] THORFINN**
Since then, it's been a good... uh, at least...
**[03:40] THORFINN**
Wait, how old am I?
**[03:44] BUG-EYES**
Thorfinn, Einar,
the village is coming into view.
**[03:53] THORFINN**
Whoa...
**[03:54] THORFINN**
I suddenly feel scared.
**[03:57] THORFINN**
How am I supposed to face my mother and sister?
**[04:04] LEIF**
You'd better prepare for the worst,
my "prodigal son."
**[04:09] LEIF**
You're finally returning home.

Okay, that's it.
**[04:24] LEIF**
Good.
**[04:40] KID**
There!
**[04:47] LEIF**
Thorfinn...
**[04:51] LEIF**
The villagers are waiting for you.
**[05:06] VILLAGER B**
Who's he?
**[05:07] VILLAGER C**
No idea.
**[05:08] VILLAGER A**
Did Ylva have a little brother?
**[05:14] VILLAGER B**
What's my name, then?
**[05:16] THORFINN**
What?
**[05:18] VILLAGER B**
If you used to live here, then you should know.
**[05:24] THORFINN**
F... Faxi?
**[05:27] VILLAGER B**
He got it wrong.
**[05:28] VILLAGER D**
He's suspicious.
**[05:29] VILLAGER C**
Should we tie him up?
**[05:31] THORFINN**
No, wait. I can't help it. It's been years.
**[05:36] THORFINN**
Mister Leif...
**[05:40] VILLAGER A**
Fine. I guess we'll let him see Ylva.
**[05:44] VILLAGER B**
Yeah.
**[05:47] VILLAGER D**
Ylva's over there, arguing
with the Norwegian merchant.
**[05:53] YLVA**
I warned you not to be so greedy here, Berge.
**[06:00] BERGE**
S-Sorry, Ylva. I w-won't do it again.
**[06:05] YLVA**
Huh? What was that? I didn't hear you.
**[06:09] FRIEND A**
Th-That's enough, Ylva. He returned our money.
**[06:14] LEIF**
Hey, Ylva.
**[06:19] LEIF**
I finally brought him back.
**[06:24] LEIF**
This is Thorfinn.
**[06:35] YLVA**
Thorfinn...
**[06:39] YLVA**
Thorfinn.
**[06:44] THORFINN**
Sister.
**[06:49] THORFINN**
Sister!
**[06:54] YLVA**
I don't know a Thorfinn!
**[06:58] LEIF**
Come on, Ylva.
It's your little brother, Thorfinn.
**[07:02] YLVA**
Little brother?
**[07:05] YLVA**
Come to think of it,
that might've been his name.
**[07:08] YLVA**
My little brother died when he was a kid.
**[07:11] LEIF**
He's actually alive.
**[07:13] LEIF**
I told you I met him in York before.
**[07:16] YLVA**
Then why didn't you bring him back then?
**[07:20] LEIF**
Well, you know, there was a lot going on...
**[07:26] YLVA**
You made that story up to cheer up
my mother and me, didn't you?
**[07:32] YLVA**
Thank you, Mister Leif.
**[07:34] LEIF**
No, actually...
**[07:37] YLVA**
More importantly...
**[07:40] THORFINN**
Huh?
**[07:42] YLVA**
Hey, shorty. You've got some balls
to trick Mister Leif like this.
**[07:47] LEIF**
No, wait!
**[07:48] YLVA**
If you've got something to say, spit it out.
**[07:51] BUG-EYES**
Man, this has gotten really complicated.
**[07:55] BUG-EYES**
It's surprisingly difficult
to prove who you are.
**[08:09] LEIF**
Let's go to your home, Thorfinn.
**[08:11] LEIF**
Helga will know who you are.
**[08:15] THORFINN**
Thorfinn...
**[08:17] THORFINN**
Who's that?
**[08:18] BUG-EYES**
He's taking this hard.
**[08:22] THORFINN**
I can't blame them.
**[08:24] THORFINN**
I'd nearly forgotten the faces
of my sister and mother, too.
**[08:31] THORFINN**
It's no surprise they've forgotten me.
**[08:38] BUG-EYES**
Who cares if they have?
**[08:42] BUG-EYES**
You get to see your mother's face
after wandering for over a decade.
**[08:46] BUG-EYES**
If you don't consider yourself lucky,
the gods will smite you.
**[08:51] BUG-EYES**
I was separated from my parents as a kid.
**[08:54] BUG-EYES**
I don't even know where they are now.
**[08:58] BUG-EYES**
I'm jealous of you.
**[09:04] BUG-EYES**
Or shall I go play the devoted son for you?
**[09:10] THORFINN**
No. I'm sorry, Bug-Eyes.
**[09:13] THORFINN**
Thank you.
**[09:32] KIDS**
Grandma, who's Thorfinn?
**[09:35] KIDS**
Tor-fin...
**[09:44] HELFA**
Thorfinn...
**[09:46] BUG-EYES**
Ma!
**[09:47] EINAR**
What are you doing?
**[09:48] EINAR**
Stop making things more complicated.
**[09:51] BUG-EYES**
Aw, c'mon. Who cares?
**[09:53] LEIF**
No, Helga. This one is...
**[10:02] HELGA**
Thorfinn...
**[10:07] THORFINN**
Mother...
**[10:11] HELGA**
You've grown so much.
**[10:23] HELGA**
You look just like him.
**[10:27] HELGA**
You really are your father's son.
**[10:43] THORFINN**
Mother...
**[10:46] THORFINN**
I'm sorry for everything.
**[10:55] HELGA**
Welcome home, Thorfinn.
**[11:33] ARI**
Mother, I heard Thorfinn's back.
**[11:37] ELDEST DAUGHTER**
Welcome back, Dad.
**[11:39] SECOND SON**
Welcome back.
**[11:43] ARI**
Thorfinn...
**[11:52] THORFINN**
Ari...
**[11:55] ARI**
Thorfinn.
**[12:01] ARI**
Thorfinn, I'm sorry.
**[12:05] ARI**
Because of us, Mister Thors...
**[12:18] THORFINN**
Ari, I was an idiot.
**[12:32] EINAR**
Well, then...
**[12:37] HELGA**
Where are you going, Mister Einar?
**[12:40] EINAR**
I should be leaving for the night.
**[12:44] EINAR**
Mister Leif's crew is staying at
the gothi's house. I'll join them there.
**[12:49] HELGA**
You should stay here.
**[12:52] HELGA**
It's a bit cramped, but we'll figure it out.
**[12:56] EINAR**
But...
**[12:58] HELGA**
If you're Thorfinn's brother,
that makes you my son.
**[12:59] ARI**
This is my eldest son.
**[13:00] ELDEST SON**
Nice to meet you.
**[13:02] THORFINN**
Hello.
**[13:05] HELGA**
This is your home. Don't be shy.
**[13:16] YLVA**
Listen to this, Mother. That stingy
merchant raised the price of salt again.
**[13:23] YLVA**
Hey, it's you again!
How dare you come into our home?
**[13:28] THORFINN**
Oh, uh... excuse the intrusion?
**[13:30] ARI**
Ylva, you haven't heard the—
**[13:32] YLVA**
Is this an inheritance scam, huh?
**[13:34] ARI**
What?
**[13:34] YLVA**
Go find a rich family to trick.
**[13:34] SECOND SON**
Ma's so fast.
**[13:36] ELDEST DAUGHTER**
And strong.
**[13:39] HELGA**
Ylva, wait.
**[13:40] YLVA**
Huh?
**[13:42] HELGA**
It's really him. Thorfinn's really come home.
**[13:46] YLVA**
It's really him?
**[13:48] YLVA**
What? I-It can't be.
**[13:52] YLVA**
No way. Mister Leif didn't make it up?
**[13:58] YLVA**
What? Really?
**[14:03] YLVA**
He's the real Thorfinn?
**[14:07] THORFINN**
I'm home, Sister.
**[14:15] YLVA**
Thorfinn...
**[14:16] THORFINN**
Sister!
**[14:19] YLVA**
Where have you been until now?
**[14:36] EINAR**
Hey... Are you okay, Thorfinn?
**[14:41] THORFINN**
I'm fine, Einar.
**[14:45] THORFINN**
I'm used to getting hit.
**[14:58] EINAR**
That...
**[14:59] EINAR**
That was just one hit...
**[15:05] KIDS**
Ma's so strong.
**[15:07] KIDS**
You're amazing, Ma.
**[15:09] KIDS**
Ma's the strongest.
**[16:01] NARRATOR**
*That night,*
**[16:03] NARRATOR**
* Thorfinn told his family about everything*
* he'd experienced over the past 16 years.*
**[16:15] NARRATOR**
* From Thor's death to his*
* departure from Ketil's farm.*
**[16:25] NARRATOR**
* Though he spoke matter-of-factly*
* and covered only the key points,*
**[16:30] NARRATOR**
*his story of hatred and strife,*
**[16:35] NARRATOR**
*death and destruction,*
**[16:40] NARRATOR**
*despair and regret,*
**[16:45] NARRATOR**
*sadness and rebirth*
**[16:50] NARRATOR**
*left everyone who heard it at a loss for words.*
**[17:03] THORFINN**
The people I killed,
**[17:07] THORFINN**
the slaves who died in despair...
**[17:13] THORFINN**
They might've had warm families like this one.
**[17:21] THORFINN**
My sins are heavy.
**[17:26] THORFINN**
I have to go to Vinland
to create a peaceful land.
**[17:39] HELGA**
Do it.
**[17:43] YLVA**
Mother...
**[17:45] HELGA**
There are many people who wish
they could flee from this world.
**[17:52] HELGA**
Thors and I fled Jomsborg,
the land of warriors, and came to this island.
**[18:03] HELGA**
For those fleeing from war and slavery,
far beyond the horizon,
**[18:14] HELGA**
you will build a peaceful land where
you'll wait to welcome those people there.
**[18:24] HELGA**
You must live to do that,
Thorfinn, son of Thors.
**[18:36] THORFINN**
Thank you, Mother.
**[18:41] ARI**
So basically, you're going to
establish a country in Vinland?
**[18:46] ELDEST SON**
Sounds like a large-scale endeavor.
**[18:50] LEIF**
He's right.
**[18:52] LEIF**
I can tell you're determined.
**[18:55] LEIF**
But you'll need people, livestock, materials...
**[18:59] LEIF**
You'll need to buy more boats, too.
**[19:02] LEIF**
It all comes down to money.
**[19:04] LEIF**
It won't be easy pulling together
that much money.
**[19:15] LEIF**
Without my help, that is.
**[19:21] LEIF**
Thank you, Mister Leif.
**[19:24] ARI**
You're not quitting sailing yet?
**[19:27] ELDEST SON**
I figured you'd say that, Mister Leif.
**[19:28] YLVA**
Will it really be that easy?
**[19:30] HELGA**
They'll be fine.
**[19:32] LEIF**
Don't worry. There are plenty of ways to do it.
**[19:35] BUG-EYES**
Don't push yourself too hard, Dad.
**[19:38] LEIF**
I'm not pushing myself. You still
don't understand the kind of man I am.
**[20:03] YLVA**
I can't believe you actually went with him.
**[20:10] THORFINN**
Sister...
**[20:15] THORFINN**
I'm sorry.
**[20:23] THORFINN**
Our father was a truly amazing man.
**[20:29] THORFINN**
He was strong and kind.
**[20:32] THORFINN**
He was looking far ahead
at something I couldn't see.
**[20:45] YLVA**
Well, he was a strange man.
**[21:12] EINAR**
Whose grave is that?
**[21:15] THORFINN**
Someone Father once tried to protect.
**[21:21] EINAR**
Were they important?
**[21:25] THORFINN**
He was a slave.
**[21:28] THORFINN**
He ran away from his master.
**[21:30] THORFINN**
My father saved him when
he lay dying on the ground.
**[21:36] THORFINN**
My father apparently
traded eight sheep for him.
**[21:41] EINAR**
Eight sheep?
**[21:47] EINAR**
I guess you get your good nature from your dad.
**[22:08] EINAR**
Man, it's cold.
**[22:10] EINAR**
It's even colder around here at night.
**[22:13] EINAR**
I'm heading back, Thorfinn.
**[22:28] YOUNG THORFINN**
Hey.
**[22:32] YOUNG THORFINN**
Where do the people who
want to run away from here go?
**[22:43] THORS**
You already know the answer to that, don't you?

**[01:48] CANUTE**
Can you stop me...
**[01:57] CANUTE**
as Askeladd did back then?
**[02:05] GUARD A**
Please leave, Thorfinn.
**[02:08] GUARD A**
You're a strange man,
but it'd be a shame to kill you.
**[02:16] EINAR**
This is how the world works.
**[02:20] EINAR**
In the end, might makes right.
**[02:26] EINAR**
Damn Vikings.
**[02:35] SWEYN**
My foolish son.
**[02:40] SWEYN**
You're still not yet a king.
**[02:44] SWEYN**
Why did you reveal your
true feelings to such lowly men?
**[02:54] SWEYN**
Surely you don't expect that
you will understand each other.
**[03:01] SWEYN**
They're a poor flock of sheep.
**[03:06] SWEYN**
You are an aloof shepherd.
**[03:11] SWEYN**
You raise them, cull them, and skin them.
**[03:16] SWEYN**
How could the sheep understand
the work of a shepherd?
**[03:23] SWEYN**
There is only control.
**[03:27] SWEYN**
It is what's best for the sheep.
**[03:32] THORFINN**
Canute.
**[03:38] THORFINN**
If you intended to use your
authority to force your way...
**[03:43] SWEYN**
Kill him.
**[03:45] SWEYN**
He's dangerous.
**[03:49] SWEYN**
A single sheep can lead the entire flock
astray and towards a cliff.
**[03:57] THORFINN**
I will...
**[03:58] SWEYN**
Kill him.
**[04:01] SVERKEL**
Do your job as king.
**[04:04] THORFINN**
I will...
**[04:11] THORFINN**
run.
**[04:32] CANUTE**
You'll simply... run?
**[04:40] CANUTE**
That's all?
**[04:45] THORFINN**
What else can I do?
**[04:48] THORFINN**
Do you want us to kill each other here?
**[04:56] THORFINN**
The paradise you describe helps
many people while oppressing few.
**[05:04] THORFINN**
That's how it works, right?
**[05:08] THORFINN**
I don't know if that's a good or bad thing,
**[05:12] THORFINN**
and I don't have the right to
criticize your crazy ideas.
**[05:17] THORFINN**
So the only option left is to run.
**[05:21] THORFINN**
Einar, let's go.
**[05:22] CANUTE**
You're an exceptional warrior.
**[05:23] EINAR**
What?
**[05:25] CANUTE**
There are other ways.
**[05:28] CANUTE**
Did you...
**[05:32] CANUTE**
Did you let that happen to your face
merely so you could admonish me?
**[05:40] THORFINN**
I wasted my time.
**[05:44] THORFINN**
Goodbye, Your Majesty.
**[06:29] CANUTE**
There are...
**[06:30] CANUTE**
There are many who wish to bargain with me.
**[06:34] CANUTE**
Some try to ensnare me, too.
**[06:37] CANUTE**
But...
**[06:41] CANUTE**
But you're unbelievable!
**[06:43] CANUTE**
You absolute fool!
**[06:47] CANUTE**
You don't have anything up your sleeve?
**[06:49] CANUTE**
Completely unarmed and thoroughly beaten,
**[06:52] CANUTE**
you simply came to tell me
not to seize this farm?
**[07:00] THORFINN**
Is it really that funny?
**[07:03] CANUTE**
It is. I've never participated in such
ridiculous peace talks before.
**[07:17] CANUTE**
You'll run, huh?
**[07:23] THORFINN**
Yeah.
**[07:29] CANUTE**
So the Vikings are capable of
producing someone like you.
**[07:35] CANUTE**
You're a beautiful man.
**[07:44] CANUTE**
Where will you go to escape war?
**[07:49] THORFINN**
Somewhere other than here.
**[07:51] THORFINN**
I can't tell you where.
**[07:57] CANUTE**
My territory continues to grow.
**[08:00] CANUTE**
My power may eventually reach that place.
**[08:06] THORFINN**
I'll run as far as I can.
**[08:10] THORFINN**
As long as I've got
someplace to run, I won't fight.
**[08:16] THORFINN**
I'll create a peaceful place beyond the king's
reach using methods different from yours.
**[08:25] THORFINN**
For the people who can't live in
the world you create.
**[08:31] THORFINN**
For you and for me.
**[08:38] CANUTE**
So you'll fill the hole my work cannot.
**[08:46] CANUTE**
Are you capable of that?
**[08:50] THORFINN**
My power is so much smaller than yours.
**[08:55] THORFINN**
I can't fill a very large hole.
**[08:59] THORFINN**
If you keep oppressing people,
eventually no one will be able to save you.
**[09:10] THORFINN**
You need to try harder.
Don't make more work for me.
**[09:20] CANUTE**
You've become rather eloquent.
**[09:26] CANUTE**
Who did you take after?
**[09:45] CANUTE**
Interesting. I've never participated in
such challenging peace talks before.
**[09:58] THORGIL**
What... *is* this?
**[10:03] THORGIL**
The ships are gone.
**[10:05] THORGIL**
Where did you go, King Canute?
**[10:08] THORGIL**
You can't be serious!
**[10:11] THORGIL**
Our battle hasn't been settled yet!
**[10:22] WULF**
Floki was dissatisfied.
**[10:26] WULF**
He said he doesn't understand why
we're withdrawing from the farm.
**[10:31] CANUTE**
Are you dissatisfied as well, Wulf?
**[10:35] WULF**
No.
**[10:39] CANUTE**
I'm canceling our plans
to seize other farms as well.
**[10:43] CANUTE**
I wouldn't want to create
more work for Thorfinn.
**[10:58] CANUTE**
Until now, I thought you were
the only one fighting with me.
**[11:07] CANUTE**
But today, I gained new allies.
**[11:24] NARRATOR**
* Later, Canute ordered the disbandment*
* of the Danish army stationed in England*
**[11:30] NARRATOR**
*that had been pressuring English finances.*
**[11:37] NARRATOR**
* In the end, Canute's Danish forces*
* dwindled to a mere 16 ships.*
**[11:51] NARRATOR**
* However, the English uprising people*
* feared would occur never happened.*
**[11:59] NARRATOR**
* The English nobility realized the*
* trust Canute had placed in them*
**[12:04] NARRATOR**
*when he relinquished his military forces,*
**[12:08] NARRATOR**
* and the relationship between conqueror*
* and conquered began to change.*
**[12:31] CANUTE**
I feel good.
**[13:54] (Flashback) EMMA**
As long as you're alive, you can...
**[14:05] (Flashback) ARNHEID**
Why do I have to live?
**[14:27] EINAR**
Thorfinn...
**[14:30] EINAR**
Are you good now?
**[14:32] THORFINN**
Yeah. I still feel a little dizzy,
but I'm fine.
**[14:42] EINAR**
Don't do crazy stuff like that.
**[14:47] THORFINN**
Sorry.
**[15:01] EINAR**
Are we going, Thorfinn?
**[15:05] EINAR**
To the land beyond the sea.
**[15:11] THORFINN**
You mean Vinland.
**[15:15] EINAR**
Vinland.
**[15:21] THORFINN**
When Arnheid drew her last breath,
**[15:29] THORFINN**
I couldn't answer her right away.
**[15:33] THORFINN**
I couldn't tell her why she had to live.
**[15:39] THORFINN**
What am I supposed to say
to a soul that's been through hell
**[15:45] THORFINN**
and yearns for the peace of death?
**[15:55] THORFINN**
I want a world where I can tell people to live.
**[16:00] THORFINN**
One I can proudly describe to people
whose only salvation is death.
**[16:07] THORFINN**
A place more appealing than death.
**[16:14] THORFINN**
That's all we ever wanted
in this world we live in.
**[16:45] THORFINN**
I won't accept it.
**[16:51] THORFINN**
If a place like that doesn't exist...
**[16:59] THORFINN**
then I'll make one.
**[17:06] THORFINN**
Einar.
**[17:15] THORFINN**
Brother, come with me.
**[17:18] THORFINN**
We'll build a peaceful land in Vinland.
**[17:22] THORFINN**
One we can proudly tell Arnheid about.
**[17:27] EINAR**
Let's do it, brother.
**[17:30] EINAR**
Beyond the sea, let's create
a country without slavery or war.
**[17:41] BOTH**
For Arnheid.
**[18:30] SNAKE**
Are you sure you're okay with this?
**[18:35] THORFINN**
It was presumptuous of me to do that.
**[18:41] SNAKE**
I've told the master and
everyone on the farm
**[18:44] SNAKE**
that the young master
convinced the king to withdraw.
**[18:48] THORFINN**
Thank you.
**[18:51] PATER**
You can count on me to protect Arnheid's grave.
**[19:01] OLMAR**
Truly, thank you.
**[19:05] THORFINN**
Oh, it was...
**[19:07] OLMAR**
Thorfinn, I want to be like you.
**[19:13] OLMAR**
Strong and kind like you. A real man.
**[19:24] THORFINN**
Olmar, I heard you made
the decision to stop fighting.
**[19:31] THORFINN**
That's amazing.
**[19:36] THORFINN**
It took me fifteen years to do that.
**[19:43] THORFINN**
But...
**[19:49] THORFINN**
I've finally figured out what I should do.
**[19:55] THORFINN**
This is a wonderful farm.
**[20:00] THORFINN**
I hope you'll rebuild and protect it.
**[20:06] THORFINN**
Old Master,
**[20:09] THORFINN**
thank you for always helping us.
**[20:16] SVERKEL**
I told you, it was just a deal we made.
**[20:21] SVERKEL**
You shouldn't be thanking me.
**[20:31] OLMAR**
I wish he would've taken
at least a single silver mark.
**[20:44] SNAKE**
Thorfinn, Einar!
**[20:49] SNAKE**
My name is Roald, Son of Grim!
**[21:00] EINAR**
Thank you, Roald!
**[21:04] THORFINN**
Take care, everyone!
**[21:42] ODONI**
Come here.
**[21:56] ODONI**
Good boy.

**[22:44] SNAKE**
Shut up. I was just taking a little break.
**[22:49] SNAKE**
I'll show you what farm work really looks like.
**[22:52] FOX**
Oh, yeah? Let's see it, then.

I thought that pain was the way of the world.
**[23:34] PATER**
I never thought I'd meet men like them.
**[23:38] PATER**
Right, Arnheid?
**[23:44] PATER**
They're headed toward a world
we never even imagined.
**[23:56] PATER**
Someplace that's not here.
