**[00:03] ---**
A TRUE WARRIOR
**[00:24] ---**
Don't get cocky.
**[00:44] ---**
Who is he?
**[00:59] ---**
He's coming.
**[01:01] ---**
What are we going to do, Bjorn?
**[01:34] ---**
This is bad. Bjorn's gone mad.
**[01:42] ---**
Stop him. He'll destroy the ship.
**[01:45] ---**
You're crazy.
**[01:47] ---**
How are we supposed to stop a monster like that?
**[01:50] ---**
Run. No one can stop him now.
**[01:59] ---**
He's eaten a berserker mushroom.
**[02:34] ---**
All with his bare hands...
**[02:36] ---**
He's stronger than a monster.
**[02:40] ---**
The Troll of Jom.
**[02:45] ---**
All right. One more ship.
**[02:59] ---**
They're here.
**[03:01] ---**
- What are we going to do?
- Surrender?
**[03:06] ---**
Damn it. Come on.
**[03:09] ---**
I'd rather die fighting than be a slave.
**[03:11] ---**
Listen. Capture the kids alive.
**[03:15] ---**
If they get hurt, they won't sell for a high price.
Be careful.
**[03:28] ---**
We're going to have some fun with you.
**[03:38] ---**
Bjorn?
**[03:48] ---**
Thors.
**[03:58] ---**
Listen. You've already lost half of your forces.
**[04:03] ---**
Leave now, and I won't take your life.
**[05:45] ---**
Be gone, pirates.
**[05:47] ---**
You cannot defeat me.
**[05:51] ---**
- That bastard.
- Stop.
**[05:53] ---**
Don't shoot until Askeladd gives the signal.
**[05:57] ---**
What are they doing?
**[05:58] ---**
We've got the high ground.
**[06:00] ---**
What are they stalling for?
**[06:04] ---**
What a crazy man.
**[06:07] ---**
He's not afraid to take on two whole warships alone.
**[06:11] ---**
Let's fight too.
**[06:12] ---**
Fool. You amateurs will make things worse.
**[06:16] ---**
Their archers are waiting up on the cliff.
**[06:19] ---**
He's the one who knows how to handle this.
**[06:22] ---**
But...
**[06:24] ---**
Don't you understand?
**[06:26] ---**
Except for Thors,
**[06:27] ---**
we're just a bunch of kids and amateurs.
**[06:30] ---**
All we can do is let him handle this.
**[06:38] ---**
*It looks like they're not
the type of men to leave when I say so.*
**[06:43] ---**
*The archers up on the cliff aren't firing yet.*
**[06:46] ---**
*There's 30 men to the front.*
**[06:48] ---**
*I know I could kill that many myself.*
**[06:52] ---**
*But our ships are close.*
**[06:54] ---**
*If they all jumped over to our ship,
it'd be a free-for-all.*
**[06:59] ---**
*I'd be fine if I was alone, but...*
**[07:13] ---**
Are you the leader?
**[07:15] ---**
In the name of Odin, the Almighty,
**[07:18] ---**
I challenge you to a duel.
**[07:23] ---**
If you win, you can do whatever you want.
**[07:26] ---**
If I win, you must withdraw at once.
**[07:29] ---**
If you refuse,
**[07:31] ---**
then you're going to lose three times as many men
**[07:34] ---**
to capture a mere 12 slaves.
**[07:41] ---**
Can I ask you something?
**[07:44] ---**
Why do you think I'm their leader?
**[07:51] ---**
I can smell it.
**[07:55] ---**
Impressive.
**[07:57] ---**
All right. I accept the duel.
**[08:00] ---**
I, Askeladd, son of Olaf, swear in the name of Odin.
**[08:05] ---**
Stay back near the ship's bow.
**[08:07] ---**
Okay.
**[08:26] ---**
I too
**[08:28] ---**
can smell something about you.
**[08:32] ---**
You have the same smell as me,
**[08:34] ---**
Troll of Jom.
**[08:38] ---**
*He knows who I am?*
**[08:41] ---**
Did Floki do this?
**[08:44] ---**
You're quick. I like smart men.
**[08:48] ---**
My father isn't a bad man like you.
**[08:51] ---**
Hey. Stay back.
**[08:52] ---**
My father is strong. Die, you pirate.
**[08:56] ---**
You idiot. You idiot. Your armor looks weird.
**[08:59] ---**
What an energetic boy. Is that your son?
**[09:03] ---**
Stop. You fool.
**[09:05] ---**
Askeladd. Do you have a wife and children?
**[09:10] ---**
No.
**[09:12] ---**
I see.
**[09:15] ---**
Let's begin.
**[09:27] ---**
*He's closing up the distance carelessly.*
**[09:59] ---**
*Too shallow.*
**[10:10] ---**
You're amazing.
**[10:11] ---**
No one can beat Askeladd.
**[10:15] ---**
Father.
**[10:20] ---**
*He dodged it. My moment of opportunity...*
**[10:23] ---**
*A surprise attack won't work on him anymore.*
**[10:26] ---**
*Coming all this way was worth it.*
**[10:31] ---**
*He's an incredible man.*
**[10:34] ---**
Thors...
**[10:37] ---**
You're strong.
**[10:43] ---**
Forgive me, Askeladd.
**[10:46] ---**
I can't go easy on you.
**[10:49] ---**
I'm happy to hear that, Thors.
**[11:05] ---**
What?
**[11:06] ---**
Hey, hey.
**[11:23] ---**
Amazing. It's a one-sided fight.
**[11:27] ---**
Askeladd is in trouble.
**[11:30] ---**
But he's able to block all his attacks.
**[11:33] ---**
Father. Kill him.
**[11:42] ---**
*Oh, no.*
**[11:43] ---**
*He's going after my sword. It won't hold up for long.*
**[11:48] ---**
*That must mean...*
**[11:50] ---**
*His sword is also...*
**[11:53] ---**
*This is it.*
**[12:00] ---**
*Since I know his target,*
**[12:02] ---**
*I can predict the arc of his sword.*
**[12:05] ---**
*This is it. A wide swing.*
**[12:14] ---**
*I fell for his trap.*
**[12:16] ---**
*He was waiting for me to get careless,
and swing wide.*
**[12:19] ---**
*He was planning to have me snap his sword,
all along.*
**[12:22] ---**
*Everything went according to his plan.*
**[12:25] ---**
*Unbelievable.*
**[12:26] ---**
*I can't believe I fell for it.*
**[12:30] ---**
You did it.
**[12:31] ---**
- Thors. You did it.
- That was amazing, Father.
**[12:35] ---**
You won.
**[12:41] ---**
What's wrong? Kill me.
**[12:44] ---**
I don't need to.
**[12:46] ---**
Say you surrender. That's enough for me.
**[12:50] ---**
I'm their leader.
**[12:53] ---**
I can't say that in front of my men.
**[13:03] ---**
What's wrong? Kill me.
**[13:05] ---**
If you don't kill me,
**[13:07] ---**
this duel will never end.
**[13:20] ---**
Ouch, my head hurts.
**[13:26] ---**
What? What's going on?
**[13:35] ---**
Askeladd...
**[13:37] ---**
Defeat?
**[13:39] ---**
He lost?
**[13:41] ---**
Admit it. I won this duel.
**[13:44] ---**
Withdraw your troops at once.
**[13:48] ---**
You really are strong, Thors.
**[13:51] ---**
You could lead a whole army.
**[13:56] ---**
But why?
**[13:58] ---**
Why did you stay in Iceland for 15 years,
even though you're such a strong warrior?
**[14:02] ---**
Don't you think you're wasting your skills?
**[14:05] ---**
No.
**[14:09] ---**
I must rely on a sword like this,
**[14:13] ---**
because I am not yet a master.
**[14:17] ---**
A true warrior
**[14:19] ---**
doesn't need a sword.
**[14:32] ---**
Thors, you...
**[14:35] ---**
Why don't you become our leader?
**[14:57] ---**
Just kidding. Hey, hey.
**[15:00] ---**
Why isn't anyone laughing? I was just joking.
**[15:05] ---**
What? He was joking?
**[15:09] ---**
This is no time for...
**[15:12] ---**
joking around with a straight face.
**[15:19] ---**
Don't move.
**[15:21] ---**
I'll cut the kid's head off.
**[15:23] ---**
Let go of your sword.
**[15:25] ---**
Hurry up.
**[15:28] ---**
Askeladd. You bastard.
**[15:31] ---**
Father.
**[15:39] ---**
Come on. You're such a good man.
**[15:42] ---**
Did you think we were going
to follow the rules of the duel?
**[15:48] ---**
I was just playing around with you.
**[15:51] ---**
I wanted to find out
how good the famous Troll of Jom really was.
**[15:55] ---**
I had a good time.
**[16:20] ---**
Askeladd.
**[16:22] ---**
You broke the rules of the duel.
**[16:25] ---**
I won this match.
**[16:29] ---**
Who cares?
**[16:31] ---**
I'm after your head.
**[16:34] ---**
I know.
**[16:55] ---**
I accept.
**[16:59] ---**
The winner of this duel...
**[17:03] ---**
is you.
**[17:16] ---**
Father!
**[17:34] ---**
Father...
**[17:37] ---**
Askeladd.
**[17:39] ---**
I won this duel.
**[17:43] ---**
Keep the promise you made as a warrior.
**[17:47] ---**
I know.
**[17:49] ---**
In the name of my ancestor Artorius,
**[17:51] ---**
I shall withdraw my troops at once.
**[17:58] ---**
Leif. I have a favor to ask you.
**[18:04] ---**
Bring my head to Sigvaldi,
**[18:07] ---**
the leader of the Jomsvikings.
**[18:10] ---**
If he suspects that I disappeared
to avoid his summons,
**[18:14] ---**
he'll take his revenge by punishing the village.
**[18:17] ---**
You're a crazy man.
**[18:25] ---**
You bastard.
**[18:27] ---**
I'll give you my life. Just like you wanted.
**[18:31] ---**
Let that child go right now.
**[18:37] ---**
Father. Father.
**[18:59] ---**
I'm glad.
**[19:02] ---**
For now...
**[19:20] ---**
Damn kid.
**[19:23] ---**
You should start valuing your life.
**[19:26] ---**
You should be grateful to Thors.
**[19:28] ---**
He was a man who was worth more
than a hundred bratty kids like you.
**[19:47] ---**
Father died.
**[19:51] ---**
Father was so strong.
**[19:55] ---**
Why did he let go of his sword?
**[19:58] ---**
How could he say a warrior doesn't need a sword?
**[20:02] ---**
That can't be true.
**[20:06] ---**
Why...?
**[20:08] ---**
Why did Father...?
**[20:11] ---**
Damn.
**[20:13] ---**
He...
**[20:15] ---**
He lost to Father.
**[20:17] ---**
Damn it.
**[20:19] ---**
Why was my father the one who died?
**[20:22] ---**
Why is he the one who's still alive?
**[20:25] ---**
Damn it.
**[20:27] ---**
Damn it all.
**[20:37] ---**
I'm surprised they abandoned these nice ships.
**[20:39] ---**
It must have been a big decision.
**[20:42] ---**
They can't move the ship without Thors.
**[20:45] ---**
Thors could row as hard as five men.
**[20:48] ---**
Really?
**[20:52] ---**
Things worked out well.
**[20:54] ---**
I was wanting to get a third ship.
**[21:03] ---**
*Twenty-eight men injured.*
**[21:05] ---**
*How many died?*
**[21:07] ---**
None? Not even one? Impossible.
**[21:13] ---**
Askeladd.
**[21:15] ---**
Hey.
**[21:16] ---**
Come to the stern. Askeladd.
**[21:20] ---**
What do you want? Shut up already.
**[21:32] ---**
It's Thors' kid.
**[21:34] ---**
He was hiding inside the ship.
**[21:36] ---**
Look at him. The kid's got a dagger.
**[21:41] ---**
He's going to kill us.
**[21:48] ---**
Oh, no. I'm so scared.
**[21:53] ---**
How dare you...?
**[21:55] ---**
How dare you...?
**[21:57] ---**
How dare you kill Father?
**[22:01] ---**
I'm going to kill you.
**[22:03] ---**
I'm going to kill you, no matter what.
**[22:05] ---**
I'm going to kill you!
**[22:10] ---**
I'm going to kill you!
**[22:16] ---**
He's just a kid.
**[22:18] ---**
But that look in his eyes...
**[22:23] ---**
What do you want to do, Askeladd?
**[22:25] ---**
Shall we throw him overboard?
**[22:29] ---**
Leave him.
**[22:32] ---**
He will die soon anyway.
**[22:41] ---**
Father...
