[00:05] ---
    I can see it.
[00:08] ---
    I'm fine.
[00:17] ---
    I can dodge it if I watch closely.
[00:19] ---
    If I don't get hit,
    it doesn't matter what weapon he uses.
[00:30] ---
    Yeah!
[00:34] ---
    Nice, kid!
[00:36] ---
    You can do it!
[00:37] ---
    That kid's pretty good!
[00:39] ---
    He was able to hit the captain.
[00:41] ---
    Quick guys like him are tough!
[00:43] ---
    This could turn out to be a good fight!
[00:47] ---
    Damn! I can't cut him.
    He's wearing chain mail underneath.
[00:51] ---
    Too bad, I liked these.
[00:55] ---
    So, you're not afraid of my ax?
[00:58] ---
    You have a lot of guts.
    You're just like Thors.
[01:05] ---
    You big bastard. Who are you to my father?
[01:11] ---
    He didn't tell you? That's so cold of him.
[01:16] ---
    I heard he's descended from a jarl.
    He was of noble origin.
[01:20] ---
    Helga's the one from a family of jarls.
[01:24] ---
    Thors rose through the ranks
    because of his skill with the sword.
[01:26] ---
    What?
[01:28] ---
    Do you want to know more?
[01:31] ---
    Do you?
[01:35] ---
    If you want me to tell you,
[01:37] ---
    you'll have to entertain me some more.
[01:40] ---
    All right, Thorfinn?
[01:45] ---
    I can entertain you.
[01:48] ---
    But it's going to be hard holding back enough
    to make sure you can still talk.
[01:55] ---
    Do you know what you're saying, kid?
[01:57] ---
    My stomach hurts!
[01:58] ---
    Holding back on the captain? You?
[02:00] ---
    Go easy on us!
[02:02] ---
    You're an idiot! You're an idiot!
[02:09] ---
    Was that funny?
[02:11] ---
    I consider Thorfinn to be a warrior.
[02:14] ---
    Don't laugh!
[02:20] ---
    Thors was stronger than me.
[02:23] ---
    Prove to me that you really are Thors' child,
[02:28] ---
    Thorfinn!
[04:10] ---
    That stupid kid. He came back here to die.
[04:16] ---
    What happened to the prince?
[04:20] ---
    Hey! Over there! Go!
[04:23] ---
    Hold down his leg!
[04:25] ---
    OUT OF THE CRADLE
[04:26] ---
    Do the same over there!
[04:27] ---
    I can hear the sound of the battle nearby.
[04:32] ---
    Stop it already!
[04:36] ---
    Don't you have anything better to do?
[04:40] ---
    Be quiet!
[04:43] ---
    I don't want to open my eyes.
[04:46] ---
    I want to stay asleep...
[04:48] ---
    like this... forever.
[04:53] ---
    Your Highness... Your Highness...
    Your Highness Canute.
[05:11] ---
    Ragnar! You're still alive--
[05:23] ---
    This is a dream, isn't it, Ragnar?
[05:30] ---
    Yes. I came to say goodbye.
[05:38] ---
    Are you going? You'll leave me behind?
[05:44] ---
    Are you telling me to live
    alone in a world like this?
[05:50] ---
    Do you think I can survive?
[05:59] ---
    I...
[06:02] ---
    failed as the person tasked
    with your education.
[06:07] ---
    I was supposed to raise you as a jarl.
    But I raised you as a normal child,
[06:12] ---
    like a farmer would raise his own child.
[06:19] ---
    Even though I knew that's not what the king wanted.
    Please forgive me.
[06:28] ---
    What's wrong with that? You understood my feelings
    better than my father, the king!
[06:41] ---
    I never wanted to be born
    into the royal family.
[06:48] ---
    If I had been...
[06:51] ---
    If I had been born as your son,
[06:55] ---
    everything would have been better.
[07:02] ---
    Your Highness.
[07:03] ---
    I'm so happy, Your Highness.
[07:07] ---
    Don't go. I love you.
[07:25] ---
    There are some things that you only realize
    once you've experienced a loss.
[07:29] ---
    You've noticed already.
[07:33] ---
    Ragnar...
[07:34] ---
    I'm just a dream.
[07:36] ---
    Wait...
[07:37] ---
    The time for you to awake has come.
[07:39] ---
    No... Ragnar!
[07:42] ---
    Come back!
[07:44] ---
    Come back!
[07:48] ---
    I wish you well, Your Highness.
[07:57] ---
    Ragnar...
[08:16] ---
    Don't be afraid! Attack together!
[08:27] ---
    Are you hurt anywhere?
[08:34] ---
    Those men are fighting over you.
[08:39] ---
    The winner is going to take you.
[08:45] ---
    You're a priest. Aren't you going
    to stop them from fighting?
[08:50] ---
    Is there a way to stop them? It's better
    to let those who wish to die, die.
[09:04] ---
    I had a dream.
[09:07] ---
    It was a dream about Ragnar.
[09:09] ---
    He said goodbye.
[09:12] ---
    He was a faithful man, even in death.
[09:19] ---
    In this world...
[09:22] ---
    there's no one who loves me anymore.
[09:28] ---
    You've found enlightenment. But you're wrong.
[09:34] ---
    Was the emotion that Ragnar
    felt towards you love?
[09:40] ---
    In order to keep you safe,
[09:43] ---
    he watched as 62 innocent
    villagers were killed.
[09:49] ---
    Your Highness.
[09:50] ---
    Love...
[09:52] ---
    What is it?
[09:57] ---
    But you know, these guys weren't that good.
[10:00] ---
    It's not easy to find strong opponents.
[10:04] ---
    We'll never get to Valhalla.
[10:10] ---
    Is the captain's duel still going on?
[10:12] ---
    No way. He should have killed him instantly.
[10:14] ---
    Then what are they so excited about?
[10:18] ---
    I'll go check.
[10:20] ---
    Me too.
[10:21] ---
    Hey! What's going on?
[10:24] ---
    Kill him!
[10:25] ---
    Captain!
[10:26] ---
    You kid!
[10:27] ---
    Stop running away!
[10:40] ---
    Impossible!
[10:41] ---
    How could the captain...?
[10:43] ---
    He's getting beaten up by that kid!
[10:47] ---
    Nice, Thorfinn!
[10:49] ---
    I don't even have five men
    who'd be a match for you!
[10:57] ---
    It's the same chain mail as before.
[10:59] ---
    I should aim for tendons 
    in his arms and legs.
[11:03] ---
    I tried to go after his vitals in London,
    and I paid the price.
[11:07] ---
    I can deliver the final blow 
    once I stop him from moving.
[11:11] ---
    However, I know you're strong,
    but your swordsmanship
[11:15] ---
    is, well, only average.
[11:20] ---
    There's still something missing
    before you achieve perfection as a warrior.
[11:25] ---
    If that's the case, then,
    why are you having a hard time?
[11:29] ---
    Good point.
[11:31] ---
    I'm missing something, too.
[11:32] ---
    I thought perhaps I could learn it from you,
    since you're Thors' child.
[11:39] ---
    Hey, Thorfinn.
[11:42] ---
    What do you think?
[11:47] ---
    What does it mean
[11:50] ---
    to be a true warrior?
[11:59] ---
    Are you asking what love is?
[12:04] ---
    Are you saying that Ragnar didn't love me?
[12:09] ---
    Yes.
[12:11] ---
    Then let me ask you.
[12:14] ---
    If what Ragnar felt wasn't love,
[12:16] ---
    then who can embody love correctly?
[12:21] ---
    He's right there.
[12:24] ---
    See?
[12:30] ---
    When he died, he became more beautiful
    than anyone among the living.
[12:36] ---
    He's love itself.
[12:41] ---
    He'll never hate others or steal anymore.
[12:47] ---
    He was abandoned there.
[12:50] ---
    He's going to give his body with generosity
    to the beasts and the insects.
[12:57] ---
    He lies exposed to the wind and the rain,
[13:00] ---
    but won't speak a single word in complaint.
[13:06] ---
    Death...
[13:08] ---
    perfects a person.
[13:19] ---
    Hey!
[13:20] ---
    Do it! Come on!
[13:24] ---
    Damn!
[13:26] ---
    So, you don't know?
[13:28] ---
    Don't worry about it.
    I wasn't expecting you to know anyway.
[13:32] ---
    That was dirty!
[13:40] ---
    Are you saying that death
    is the essence of love?
[13:46] ---
    Yes.
[13:48] ---
    Then what is the feeling when parents
    care for their children,
[13:52] ---
    when a husband and wife care for each other,
    and when Ragnar cares about me?
[13:56] ---
    It's discrimination.
[13:59] ---
    It's no different from fawning over a king
    while hitting a slave with a whip.
[14:05] ---
    To Ragnar, you were more important
    than anyone else, Your Highness.
[14:12] ---
    Probably even more important 
    than his own life.
[14:18] ---
    His tender feelings towards
    you were discrimination.
[14:32] ---
    I see.
[14:36] ---
    I'm beginning to understand.
[14:41] ---
    I feel like
[14:43] ---
    the fog has lifted.
[14:51] ---
    What?
[14:52] ---
    Come on!
[14:54] ---
    He's done with you!
[14:56] ---
    Hey...
[15:07] ---
    Damn... It's still too shallow.
[15:14] ---
    I'm beginning to understand.
[15:16] ---
    This snow...
[15:19] ---
    is love, right?
[15:22] ---
    That's right.
[15:28] ---
    The sky.
[15:30] ---
    The sun.
[15:33] ---
    The wind.
[15:35] ---
    The fog.
[15:37] ---
    The mountains.
[15:43] ---
    But then...
[15:48] ---
    I can't believe it.
[15:51] ---
    The world.
[15:53] ---
    The creation of God is so beautiful.
    But then why...
[16:00] ---
    is there no love...
[16:03] ---
    in the hearts of men?
[16:13] ---
    They say that the reason we turned into
    creatures like this
[16:18] ---
    is because our ancestors disobeyed God
[16:21] ---
    and committed a sin long ago.
[16:27] ---
    We were...
[16:29] ---
    expelled from paradise.
[16:46] ---
    What?
[16:47] ---
    Where did he go?
[16:49] ---
    Hey. What's that?
[16:51] ---
    He dampened the shock
    with his legs. Nice move.
[17:06] ---
    Over there!
[17:07] ---
    Wow!
[17:08] ---
    He must be dead now!
[17:10] ---
    Impressive, captain!
[17:13] ---
    Damn.
[17:16] ---
    I've lost all hope now.
[17:46] ---
    It looks like the battle is over.
[17:50] ---
    But
[17:51] ---
    this is no good. That man has gone insane.
[17:58] ---
    Your Highness. You had better run away.
[18:06] ---
    Sane?
[18:09] ---
    Is anyone sane in this world?
[18:15] ---
    Everyone's the same.
[18:18] ---
    Everyone's the same.
[18:21] ---
    No one knows how to love.
[18:26] ---
    No one knows the meaning of life.
[18:28] ---
    No one knows the meaning of death.
[18:31] ---
    No one even knows the
    reason they're fighting.
[18:35] ---
    Your Highness.
[18:42] ---
    I've had enough. I'm sick of it.
[18:59] ---
    What we lost in exchange for wisdom...
[19:03] ---
    The most important thing... It's something
[19:07] ---
    that we'll never get back as long as we live.
[19:17] ---
    We'll never attain it.
[19:19] ---
    Yet, even then...
[19:21] ---
    You still tell us to seek it?
[19:25] ---
    Father in heaven!
[19:38] ---
    Miserable warrior.
[19:40] ---
    You're the farthest from love.
[19:44] ---
    You, who have been expelled from paradise.
[19:54] ---
    Isn't there any way to end the suffering
    from your punishment other than death?
[20:01] ---
    Are you saying that we only exist
    so that we may be tested and endure?
[20:07] ---
    Father in heaven!
[20:09] ---
    This man's soul cannot be saved
    through the trials you set for him!
[20:36] ---
    Father.
[20:38] ---
    I no longer seek your salvation.
[20:41] ---
    If you will no longer give us salvation,
[20:44] ---
    then, with our own hands,
[20:46] ---
    on this earth,
[20:48] ---
    we shall create our own paradise.
[20:54] ---
    What? Prince?
[21:03] ---
    Ow!
[21:04] ---
    Prince! Are you okay?
[21:08] ---
    Stop, you fools.
[21:10] ---
    Don't fight futile battles anymore.
[21:12] ---
    Futile?
[21:17] ---
    Your wounds are deep. Are you okay?
[21:19] ---
    Damn. I slipped up.
[21:23] ---
    Don't move. Your stomach is cut. Willibald!
[21:29] ---
    Treat his wounds.
[21:31] ---
    I'm going to catch the horses.
[21:34] ---
    You. Help him.
[21:37] ---
    Your Highness, I've seen a miracle.
[21:41] ---
    Be quiet and treat his wounds.
[21:43] ---
    Hey! Prince! Where are you going?
[21:47] ---
    We're going to give you to Thorkell!
    Or else my buddies--
[21:53] ---
    I was already planning to see Thorkell.
[21:56] ---
    We won't be able to transport the wounded
    unless we borrow their sleds.
[22:00] ---
    What? You're talking nonsense!
[22:04] ---
    Do you have any idea why I'm in
    such a mess right now? You idiot!
[22:08] ---
    If you get captured by Thorkell,
    then there will be no meaning to any of this!
[22:13] ---
    Meaning?
[22:14] ---
    Did you say meaning?
[22:16] ---
    The meaning of your battles?
[22:22] ---
    There is no meaning to a battle like this.
[22:26] ---
    So, don't die.
[22:29] ---
    Warriors. Become my vassals.
[22:32] ---
    I shall teach you about when you must fight,
    and against whom.
[22:38] ---
    I shall give meaning to your battles.
    To your life and death.
[22:46] ---
    That's what...
[22:48] ---
    the duty of a king is.
