**[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!
