[01:32] ---     In 1014, [01:34] ---     York [01:35] ---     was controlled by the Vikings of Denmark,     led by King Sweyn. [01:40] ---     The land was used as a base [01:43] ---     for exporting slaves all over Europe. [01:46] ---     The Vikings served as [01:48] ---     slave traders. [01:54] ---     I know how you feel, boss. [01:57] ---     But we're not rich enough to free the slaves [02:00] ---     Reunion [02:01] ---     out of compassion. [02:03] ---     It's been 11 years already. [02:06] ---     Isn't it about time now? [02:11] ---     That day, without Thors, [02:14] ---     we wouldn't have gotten out of there alive. [02:18] ---     I must repay him for his help. [02:24] ---     Hurry! All of these over here! [02:26] ---     - Over there!     - Hurry! Go! [02:29] ---     What? [02:30] ---     Hey! You! [02:32] ---     You in the dirty cargo ship!     Get that ship out of the way! [02:37] ---     Hurry up! The first ship's almost here-- [02:41] ---     Heave ho! [02:42] ---     Heave ho! Heave ho! [02:46] ---     Hurry up! A nobleman's ships [02:49] ---     are about to pull in along this pier! [02:51] ---     I got it. [02:57] ---     So, this is York. [03:00] ---     It's a big town. [03:02] ---     Yes. It's an old town that prospered     in the days of the Roman Empire. [03:07] ---     People and goods from both Northern Europe     and England all gather here. [03:13] ---     His Highness the king must be planning to     establish the capital of his new dynasty here. [03:18] ---     It's a good decision. I'd do the same thing. [03:25] ---     Come on! Who cares if they're nobility? [03:28] ---     Those guys are a pain. Damn. [03:32] ---     Hey, boss. Take care of the one on the stern. [03:39] ---     That man... [03:42] ---     That's right. It's definitely him. [03:45] ---     I'd never forget that face. [03:49] ---     Askeladd! The pirate who killed Thors! [03:55] ---     - Hey! Don't push!     - Who's ships are those? [03:57] ---     - Prince Canute's.     - What will you do? [04:00] ---     The king is going to strike     at tomorrow's banquet. [04:03] ---     Well, about that... [04:07] ---     It's obvious that we're going to lose out     at the Imperial Council tomorrow. [04:13] ---     For example, he could give     different territories [04:15] ---     to you and Thorkell to isolate you. [04:18] ---     He'd be giving you a reward,     but he'd also be giving you an order. [04:22] ---     If you refused, you'd be suspected     of harboring rebellious intentions. [04:26] ---     It's all up to the king what     he wants to do with you. [04:30] ---     If he takes Thorkell from     us, we're in trouble. [04:33] ---     True. We'd be in trouble. [04:36] ---     So... What's the plan? [04:42] ---     How about this? [04:44] ---     We could try exposing the secret     to the people around here. [04:48] ---     Exposing the secret? [04:49] ---     Which one is the prince? [04:51] ---     Isn't that him? [04:53] ---     Your Highness Canute. [04:57] ---     I mean that you're going [05:00] ---     to die here right now. [05:13] ---     He got shot! [05:16] ---     His Highness the Prince got shot! [05:19] ---     - Raise your shields!     - Where'd it come from? [05:21] ---     From the north bank! Find them! [05:24] ---     He was shot from this side? Unbelievable. [05:28] ---     What an easy job. [05:36] ---     Hey! [05:38] ---     What's happening? [05:39] ---     This is bad. [05:42] ---     We better not get involved in this. [05:44] ---     Hey! Where are you going, boss? [05:47] ---     It's him! He was there! [05:53] ---     What's wrong? [05:56] ---     Are you okay? [05:57] ---     You're bleeding! [06:13] ---     You wasted so much of my time. [06:35] ---     Hey! You bastards! [06:38] ---     What's going on? [06:40] ---     I bet you're the snipers! [06:44] ---     He's the sniper. It wasn't     me. Here's the weapon. [06:48] ---     What's that? [06:50] ---     - Is it a bow?     - That's the weapon? [06:53] ---     Is he your friend? [06:55] ---     No, I-- [06:56] ---     You can't fool us! [06:59] ---     You're just trying to blame everything on him [07:01] ---     and save yourself! [07:03] ---     I said it wasn't me! [07:04] ---     No! I can tell from your eyes! [07:07] ---     Your eyes are so murky. [07:10] ---     It's so obvious that you're a villain-- [07:18] ---     Don't resist, you bastard! [07:20] ---     Wait! Wait! Wait! [07:23] ---     He's using a knife. [07:24] ---     He's small and he's young. [07:27] ---     Are you... [07:30] ---     Thorfinn Karlsefni? [07:32] ---     Thorfinn? [07:34] ---     Karlsefni? [07:36] ---     Who is he? [07:37] ---     You idiot! Don't you know who he is? [07:39] ---     He's the man who won a duel against     Thorkell the Tall with only two knives! [07:43] ---     What? No way! [07:45] ---     In that case, this is bad. [07:47] ---     He's one of His Highness's vassals. [07:49] ---     Seriously? [07:50] ---     Excuse me for a bit. [07:53] ---     You... [07:55] ---     Are you...? [07:57] ---     You're from Iceland, right? [08:02] ---     Your name [08:04] ---     is Thorfinn, son of Thors! [08:10] ---     You're... [08:12] ---     Leif. [08:19] ---     You're alive! I'm so glad. [08:23] ---     I'm so glad! [08:27] ---     Out of the way! [08:28] ---     Don't shake him, you idiot! [08:30] ---     Where was he hit? [08:31] ---     His chest. It's bad! [08:32] ---     Your Highness! Hold on! [08:33] ---     Your Highness! We're going     to cut off your clothes. [08:50] ---     I had that feeling all along. [08:56] ---     His Highness is a woman! [08:59] ---     - This is big news!     - No way! [09:01] ---     You idiots. [09:05] ---     I'm right here. [09:08] ---     You're right. [09:13] ---     Why did you choose a woman? [09:15] ---     We couldn't find any male     slaves who looked similar. [09:21] ---     Can you save her? [09:24] ---     No. Not with where she got shot. [09:27] ---     If there was poison on the arrow,     then she's probably already... [09:34] ---     I'm sorry. [09:40] ---     Take care of her. [09:42] ---     Do everything you can. [09:45] ---     Yes. [09:49] ---     Well, you know... [09:51] ---     Your precautions have     paid off, Your Highness. [09:55] ---     It seems that there are     people hiding here in York [09:59] ---     who want to do you harm. [10:05] ---     I see. [10:07] ---     You want to get revenge. [10:09] ---     Yes. I'm going to kill him, no matter what. [10:13] ---     With my father's dagger. [10:18] ---     He's all beaten up. [10:21] ---     A young child survived on the battlefield. [10:25] ---     I'm sure he's seen hell. [10:29] ---     No. I can't. [10:31] ---     In order to save this child, [10:33] ---     I have to forget these last 11 years. [10:37] ---     Leif. [10:40] ---     What's happening in Vinland right now? [10:44] ---     My father had wanted to go there. [10:47] ---     I dream about it sometimes too. [10:50] ---     Did you build a village already? [10:54] ---     Why aren't you asking me about your mother     and your sister, who you left behind? [10:58] ---     After you left, Helga's health got worse. [11:04] ---     Go see her, Thorfinn. [11:06] ---     It would make Helga feel better-- [11:08] ---     I'm asking you about Vinland! [11:12] ---     Don't talk to me about     things I didn't ask you! [11:15] ---     Hey. Hey! Where are you going? Thorfinn! [11:21] ---     Let's go home, Thorfinn. [11:24] ---     You've had enough, right?     Let's go home together. [11:29] ---     Enough? [11:32] ---     You have no idea. [11:35] ---     You don't know anything about [11:37] ---     what I went through between     that day and today. [11:40] ---     Right? [11:42] ---     As long as Askeladd [11:43] ---     is still alive, eating and     shitting, it'll never be enough! [11:48] ---     It'll never be enough! [11:54] ---     How could this have happened? [11:57] ---     That cheerful young child. [12:07] ---     I'm going to stay in this town     until you change your mind! [12:12] ---     Thorfinn! [12:14] ---     Let's go home! [12:19] ---     Hey. Here's some booze. [12:23] ---     Thanks. [12:24] ---     Nice room, Bjorn. I'm jealous. [12:30] ---     This room is too small of a reward     for risking my life. [12:35] ---     By the way,     Atli said he wanted to apologize to you. [12:43] ---     I've got no hard feelings for anyone     who cut me on the battlefield. [12:48] ---     Thorfinn's the only one who     holds a grudge about it. [12:54] ---     I'm okay. So go. [12:56] ---     It's time for you to make your evil plans. [12:59] ---     Yeah. See you later. [13:05] ---     Askeladd. [13:10] ---     How is your leg? [13:18] ---     Well, I've been hit by a lot of arrows. [13:20] ---     But, well... [13:23] ---     It's good enough for me to hold a sword. [13:27] ---     I see. [13:30] ---     Then tomorrow. [13:33] ---     Okay. [13:36] ---     Tomorrow. [13:42] ---     We've been outwitted, Floki. [13:47] ---     I apologize. [13:52] ---     Askeladd? He's doing well. [13:57] ---     He's laid a curse on this town. [14:05] ---     The prince got killed? [14:07] ---     No! It was a double. [14:11] ---     It's so dangerous out there. [14:13] ---     We can't sleep in peace at night. [14:20] ---     What I don't understand [14:22] ---     is why the assassin was targeting the prince? [14:26] ---     Well, he's an important person! [14:29] ---     Of course someone would want to kill him! [14:31] ---     But King Sweyn is here! [14:35] ---     If they were going to go after     someone, it would be him! [14:38] ---     Oh, you're right. [14:39] ---     And there are two heirs. [14:42] ---     So the fact that they went after the younger brother     must mean that... [14:46] ---     You there! [14:48] ---     I have some interesting     information regarding that. [14:54] ---     Well, [14:56] ---     it's only a rumor, after all. [15:00] ---     Only a rumor? [15:02] ---     That's perfect. [15:05] ---     It's better not to offer definite proof. [15:07] ---     We should leave the king with some room. [15:12] ---     So you're the one who hired the assassin? [15:15] ---     You performed a part in your own play? [15:17] ---     It was some good acting, right? [15:20] ---     Spreading rumors isn't enough. [15:23] ---     That acting made the rumor seem real.     That's how the rumor will spread. [15:29] ---     Everyone knows of the dispute over succession     within Denmark's royal family. [15:32] ---     Now, there's been an assassination attempt,     and the rumors will spread. [15:36] ---     Well then, everyone. [15:38] ---     How is this going to affect     tomorrow's meeting? [15:42] ---     I see. [15:44] ---     He won't be able to issue any orders     that would put me at a disadvantage. [15:48] ---     That's right. [15:50] ---     If he took Thorkell away from you, [15:52] ---     or sent you to a warzone, it     would only feed the rumors. [15:57] ---     The king depends on public favor. [15:59] ---     If he gets a bad reputation among the military,     he won't be able to ignore it. [16:04] ---     Especially if they found out     he murdered his own child. [16:10] ---     You're so cunning. [16:13] ---     Where did you learn how to do it? [16:15] ---     Brute force isn't the only way to fight. [16:19] ---     Did you learn something new? [16:21] ---     The king might not strike [16:23] ---     for the time being. [16:26] ---     It's a good way to buy time. [16:30] ---     But [16:31] ---     I won't let you use a     double for me ever again. [16:35] ---     Yes. I apologize. [16:39] ---     I'm so impressed, Askeladd! [16:44] ---     I feel like I have a force     of ten thousand on my side! [16:47] ---     Thanks. [16:49] ---     Well, it looks like our     discussion is wrapping up. [16:52] ---     I'm going to run some errands now. [16:55] ---     Wow! Having him here is so reassuring! [17:00] ---     Your Highness. [17:02] ---     You must not trust Gunnar. [17:06] ---     He's probably communicating with King Sweyn. [17:09] ---     Why do you think so? Tell me your reason. [17:12] ---     It's my gut feeling. But I'm sure about it. [17:15] ---     Then wasn't that bad just now?     He'll find out about what we were talking about. [17:19] ---     I don't care. [17:21] ---     I've only talked about things     that are superfluous. [17:24] ---     If Gunnar is on their side, then he's going to     tell them tonight about what he just heard. [17:28] ---     I asked Thorfinn to follow him to make sure. [17:32] ---     What are you going to do if Gunnar is a spy? [17:35] ---     Are you going to kill him? [17:39] ---     Let him work. [17:41] ---     We'll use him to tell the king [17:45] ---     that we don't want a short-term battle. [17:48] ---     If he hears it from his spy,     he'll believe it, and relax. [17:52] ---     In order to avoid conflict for now, it's necessary to have     an understanding from both sides. [17:57] ---     My plan is complete now. [18:05] ---     You're unbelievable. [18:08] ---     I'm looking forward to seeing     the king's reaction tomorrow. [18:21] ---     That's the king's house. [18:22] ---     Now, we know for sure. [18:29] ---     Everyone's obsessed with     deceiving each other. [18:31] ---     Is that what a warrior is supposed to do? [18:35] ---     There's only one thing [18:37] ---     I'm supposed to do. [18:47] ---     Do we really have to do this     before the Imperial Council, [18:50] ---     Thorfinn? [18:58] ---     Wouldn't it be better to wait     until your right arm heals? [19:03] ---     Well, I'm fine with it either way. [19:06] ---     I shall be the witness. [19:10] ---     The duel is over when I tell you to stop. [19:13] ---     You both agree with that? [19:15] ---     Fine with me. [19:17] ---     But please wait a moment, Your Highness. [19:20] ---     I have a previous engagement. [19:23] ---     I will return later. [19:34] ---     Sorry, Thorfinn. [19:37] ---     We'll be done soon. [19:43] ---     Understood. Begin. [20:07] ---     Askeladd. [20:10] ---     You're strong and smart. [20:13] ---     I look up to you. [20:18] ---     Even though [20:19] ---     you hate me from the bottom of your heart. [20:26] ---     Hey, Askeladd. [20:29] ---     I'm not the only one. [20:31] ---     You hated [20:32] ---     our friends who died... [20:35] ---     and even yourself. [20:42] ---     Aren't you lonely? [20:45] ---     Rejecting everything [20:47] ---     like that? [20:52] ---     I... [20:54] ---     wanted... [20:58] ---     Wanted... [21:01] ---     to be friends with you. [21:29] ---     Sorry! I missed the vital     spot! I'll put you at ease. [21:32] ---     Askeladd... [21:36] ---     I wanted to be friends with you... [21:45] ---     Yeah. Bjorn... [21:48] ---     You're [21:50] ---     my only [21:53] ---     friend. [22:09] ---     Send me off. [22:37] ---     Well, then. Sorry to keep you waiting, kid. [22:42] ---     Come. [22:48] ---     I'll play with you.
