**[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?
