[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.
SIGN    Carve it.
[22:01] FOX
    Hup!
SIGN    Carve it into your flesh. Carve it into the land.
SIGN    Carve it into the sea.
SIGN    Carve it into your spoils. Carve it into your enemies.
SIGN    Carve it.
SIGN    Carve it.
[22:40] BADGER
    Boss, when are you going to
    start working? Come on.
[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.
[22:55] SNAKE
    I'll get this done in a snap.
SIGN    Carve what you feel into me.
[23:15] PATER
    In my life, I've always endured.
[23:23] PATER
    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.
SIGN    Carve that encounter into me.
