1
00:00:07,050 --> 00:00:11,930
More, give me more
Give me more
2
00:00:12,681 --> 00:00:16,852
If I had a heart
I could love you
3
00:00:18,187 --> 00:00:21,899
If I had a voice
I would sing
4
00:00:23,942 --> 00:00:27,946
After the night
When I wake up
5
00:00:29,239 --> 00:00:34,286
I'll see
What tomorrow brings
6
00:00:40,751 --> 00:00:45,756
If I had a voice
I would sing
7
00:01:27,798 --> 00:01:29,007
Floki.
8
00:01:37,349 --> 00:01:38,558
Floki!
9
00:01:40,686 --> 00:01:42,229
Ketill Flatnose.
10
00:01:42,312 --> 00:01:44,773
By all the gods,
I never thought I would see you again.
11
00:01:44,856 --> 00:01:48,277
And yet, here I am, Ubbe,
very far from invisible.
12
00:01:49,569 --> 00:01:51,154
I thought you are Floki.
13
00:01:51,863 --> 00:01:53,949
Do I look like Floki?
14
00:01:55,242 --> 00:01:57,119
You are in Floki's boat.
15
00:01:58,161 --> 00:02:00,497
You went with Floki
to found a new settlement.
16
00:02:00,622 --> 00:02:03,417
Tell me, was it a success?
17
00:02:05,752 --> 00:02:10,716
In the early days, Ubbe,
it was a great struggle for all of us.
18
00:02:10,799 --> 00:02:14,845
We lost many good people
to disease, starvation.
19
00:02:14,928 --> 00:02:18,098
Sometimes, I wondered
if the gods were against us
20
00:02:18,181 --> 00:02:21,351
and if our tiny colony in Iceland
could ever succeed.
21
00:02:21,435 --> 00:02:22,728
Iceland?
22
00:02:22,811 --> 00:02:23,812
That's what we call it,
23
00:02:23,895 --> 00:02:28,608
because in winter,
the fjords fill with ice floes.
24
00:02:28,692 --> 00:02:31,528
But otherwise, the weather is fine.
25
00:02:32,070 --> 00:02:35,240
And since then, we have made progress.
We have harvested our first crops.
26
00:02:36,033 --> 00:02:37,576
Other settlers have come to join us,
27
00:02:37,659 --> 00:02:41,747
and I feel optimistic
that we shall succeed like Floki wanted.
28
00:02:42,789 --> 00:02:46,585
I am here to see Bjorn.
My brother's now the king.
29
00:02:46,668 --> 00:02:47,919
Ah, so I have heard.
30
00:02:48,295 --> 00:02:50,464
I will go and pay my respects.
31
00:02:50,547 --> 00:02:52,674
I would like to talk about this further.
32
00:02:52,758 --> 00:02:54,509
Would you meet me later
in the Great Hall?
33
00:02:54,593 --> 00:02:55,802
Yeah.
34
00:03:12,861 --> 00:03:14,321
I need your advice, Ubbe.
35
00:03:15,822 --> 00:03:17,824
You know
what has happened with King Harald?
36
00:03:20,285 --> 00:03:21,745
Should I rescue him or not?
37
00:03:22,496 --> 00:03:23,914
It's your decision.
38
00:03:24,956 --> 00:03:28,752
But you spoke about making Kattegat
great through trade, not conquest.
39
00:03:28,835 --> 00:03:31,838
Why would your first decision be
to go on a foreign adventure?
40
00:03:36,468 --> 00:03:38,303
But King Harald saved my life.
41
00:03:40,097 --> 00:03:42,099
He fought with us to reclaim Kattegat.
42
00:03:43,433 --> 00:03:46,561
What kind of king would turn a blind eye
to such obligation?
43
00:03:48,397 --> 00:03:50,816
It just makes me glad I'm not king.
44
00:03:51,817 --> 00:03:53,568
What do you say, Hvitserk?
45
00:03:55,570 --> 00:03:56,988
I don't say anything.
46
00:03:57,614 --> 00:03:59,658
Well, you have to have an opinion.
47
00:03:59,741 --> 00:04:00,951
Why?
48
00:04:01,701 --> 00:04:03,328
'Cause it would help me.
49
00:04:03,954 --> 00:04:06,623
It would help all of us
if we knew where Ivar was.
50
00:04:08,208 --> 00:04:10,836
Who cares about Harald or Olaf,
51
00:04:11,378 --> 00:04:12,629
or any of them?
52
00:04:14,214 --> 00:04:16,341
Only Ivar matters.
53
00:04:17,384 --> 00:04:18,844
Just to you, brother.
54
00:04:31,189 --> 00:04:32,399
I don't know, Bjorn.
55
00:04:33,692 --> 00:04:34,901
I don't know.
56
00:04:47,038 --> 00:04:49,249
I see I must make up my own mind.
57
00:04:59,009 --> 00:05:00,218
There he is!
58
00:05:02,053 --> 00:05:05,056
What brings you back to Kattegat,
Ketill Flatnose?
59
00:05:05,140 --> 00:05:07,350
I am trying to recruit new settlers.
60
00:05:07,434 --> 00:05:08,685
I don't care who they are,
61
00:05:08,768 --> 00:05:11,354
as long as they're prepared
to work hard.
62
00:05:15,901 --> 00:05:18,862
And what of Floki? How is he?
63
00:05:18,945 --> 00:05:22,657
Why has he not returned?
I would've liked to have seen him again.
64
00:05:22,741 --> 00:05:25,994
The truth is, Ubbe,
Floki seemed to grow tired
65
00:05:26,077 --> 00:05:29,039
being the leader of a settlement
that was not working.
66
00:05:29,122 --> 00:05:32,250
He was disappointed, grew despondent.
67
00:05:32,334 --> 00:05:34,377
Then one day, without explanation,
68
00:05:34,461 --> 00:05:36,755
he just left us and walked away.
69
00:05:37,923 --> 00:05:40,884
- And you haven't seen him since?
- No.
70
00:05:41,384 --> 00:05:43,178
We searched the island for him.
71
00:05:43,261 --> 00:05:45,639
We spent a long time looking for him.
72
00:05:45,722 --> 00:05:47,349
We found no sign of him.
73
00:05:55,148 --> 00:05:56,733
There is one more thing.
74
00:05:57,692 --> 00:06:00,695
I once heard a story
about a wanderer who sailed west,
75
00:06:00,779 --> 00:06:03,073
probably to the west of your Iceland.
76
00:06:04,324 --> 00:06:08,620
It is said that he sighted
a beautiful, uninhabited land,
77
00:06:09,788 --> 00:06:12,290
but was driven past it by a storm
and could not find it.
78
00:06:12,916 --> 00:06:14,918
Have you heard this story before?
79
00:06:15,001 --> 00:06:17,003
I have heard this story many times,
80
00:06:17,087 --> 00:06:19,381
and I know the wanderer
that you speak of.
81
00:06:19,464 --> 00:06:22,592
He lives in Iceland. His name is Othere.
82
00:06:23,718 --> 00:06:26,513
I need to find that land.
83
00:06:26,596 --> 00:06:28,765
I'm fitting out two boats
to search for it.
84
00:06:28,848 --> 00:06:31,476
Then you must come to Iceland with me
and meet Othere.
85
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:34,938
And to look for Floki.
86
00:06:36,898 --> 00:06:39,150
Aah!
87
00:07:04,884 --> 00:07:07,345
What do you think
of these Eastern puppets?
88
00:07:08,638 --> 00:07:10,932
Eh... I like them.
89
00:07:12,309 --> 00:07:14,603
I wish someone
could hold me up like that.
90
00:07:15,562 --> 00:07:17,188
I thought the gods did that.
91
00:08:50,031 --> 00:08:51,908
I have to go to Novgorod.
92
00:08:53,451 --> 00:08:55,537
Novgorod?
93
00:08:55,620 --> 00:08:57,706
The old capital of Rus.
94
00:08:57,789 --> 00:09:00,542
My brother lives there.
I need to talk to him.
95
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,795
I told you I have family business.
96
00:09:04,963 --> 00:09:08,633
Then I can concentrate
on building a fleet and raising an army.
97
00:09:10,969 --> 00:09:14,389
You will meet my ward, Prince Igor,
98
00:09:14,472 --> 00:09:17,308
the son of my dead brother-in-law,
King Rurik.
99
00:09:20,061 --> 00:09:22,897
Igor is the true heir to the kingdom.
100
00:09:42,917 --> 00:09:44,127
Ingrid.
101
00:09:45,211 --> 00:09:46,880
Yes, Gunnhild?
102
00:09:46,963 --> 00:09:49,758
I have seen you looking at Bjorn.
103
00:09:49,841 --> 00:09:52,677
You know, the way
that women sometimes look at men.
104
00:09:54,929 --> 00:09:56,347
I don't know what you mean.
105
00:09:59,642 --> 00:10:02,061
You are not a child, Ingrid.
106
00:10:02,145 --> 00:10:05,732
If you feel what I think you feel,
then I am sorry for you.
107
00:10:05,815 --> 00:10:07,817
But I cannot stop you feeling it.
108
00:10:13,698 --> 00:10:14,698
Go on.
109
00:10:36,221 --> 00:10:37,680
Novgorod!
110
00:12:25,622 --> 00:12:29,834
So, I've been curious to know...
111
00:12:29,918 --> 00:12:31,920
why are you called the Prophet?
112
00:12:33,713 --> 00:12:35,131
Came about like this.
113
00:12:37,008 --> 00:12:40,303
I attacked Constantinople,
defeated its defenders, and subdued it.
114
00:12:41,346 --> 00:12:45,433
Afterwards, I was invited
to dine with its rulers to make peace,
115
00:12:45,516 --> 00:12:48,728
since I was not strong enough
to occupy the city indefinitely.
116
00:12:50,313 --> 00:12:52,690
But just before the feast,
I had a dream.
117
00:12:52,774 --> 00:12:56,402
I dreamed that my wine was poisoned.
118
00:12:59,739 --> 00:13:02,533
So... I refused to drink it.
119
00:13:07,163 --> 00:13:11,125
But two of my commanders,
ignoring my warning,
120
00:13:11,209 --> 00:13:13,503
did drink...
121
00:13:13,586 --> 00:13:16,547
and died in the greatest agony
soon afterwards.
122
00:13:19,050 --> 00:13:21,052
From that moment, I was called...
123
00:13:22,887 --> 00:13:24,847
the Prophet.
124
00:13:30,478 --> 00:13:31,938
Askold.
125
00:13:32,814 --> 00:13:34,023
Brother.
126
00:13:51,958 --> 00:13:53,876
This is Prince Igor.
127
00:13:54,335 --> 00:13:56,379
Ah, Prince.
128
00:13:58,798 --> 00:14:01,926
I hear you're the famous
Ivar, the Boneless.
129
00:14:02,677 --> 00:14:05,304
Scourge of all Christians.
130
00:14:05,388 --> 00:14:08,016
Leader of The Great Army
that ravaged England
131
00:14:08,099 --> 00:14:10,685
and killed two Christian kings.
132
00:14:10,768 --> 00:14:12,186
That is true.
133
00:14:12,729 --> 00:14:15,356
But what is fame, Prince Askold?
134
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,108
A chimera?
135
00:14:17,191 --> 00:14:19,569
An illusion perhaps?
136
00:14:28,036 --> 00:14:30,371
Is it true,
as I have been told,
137
00:14:30,455 --> 00:14:33,332
that you plan to invade Scandinavia?
138
00:14:33,416 --> 00:14:35,251
Of course.
139
00:14:35,334 --> 00:14:38,463
I've been considering it for some time.
140
00:14:38,546 --> 00:14:40,882
I took King Ivar's arrival
141
00:14:40,965 --> 00:14:43,634
as a sign that I was meant
to proceed with my plans.
142
00:14:46,512 --> 00:14:50,475
After all, we will only take back
what is rightly ours.
143
00:14:55,354 --> 00:14:57,065
Don't you agree, brother?
144
00:15:01,527 --> 00:15:04,739
I will contribute
whatever I can to your army.
145
00:15:04,822 --> 00:15:08,242
I hope you recognize
that, as your brother,
146
00:15:08,326 --> 00:15:10,703
I stand ready
and waiting for your commands.
147
00:15:11,329 --> 00:15:12,997
And that, in all things,
148
00:15:13,748 --> 00:15:15,166
you can trust me.
149
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,961
Of course, my dear brother.
150
00:15:21,506 --> 00:15:22,924
More wine!
151
00:15:25,968 --> 00:15:27,178
To conquest.
152
00:15:30,723 --> 00:15:31,723
Conquest.
153
00:16:46,632 --> 00:16:47,633
Oleg!
154
00:17:17,830 --> 00:17:19,457
Whoo!
155
00:17:21,417 --> 00:17:22,835
It's been a long day!
156
00:17:26,672 --> 00:17:28,257
We must rest.
157
00:17:32,428 --> 00:17:33,638
Your Highness.
158
00:18:22,937 --> 00:18:24,897
Should I rescue
King Harald or not?
159
00:18:24,981 --> 00:18:28,234
That is your affair,
Bjorn Ironside.
160
00:18:28,317 --> 00:18:30,361
Don't you know your own mind?
161
00:18:30,444 --> 00:18:32,113
I want to know the consequences.
162
00:18:33,656 --> 00:18:35,866
You can see. You know the future.
163
00:18:35,950 --> 00:18:38,369
I know what I know,
164
00:18:38,452 --> 00:18:41,914
and what you cannot bear to know.
165
00:18:41,998 --> 00:18:43,624
This is a big decision.
166
00:18:45,084 --> 00:18:47,044
I have only been king a short while.
167
00:18:49,964 --> 00:18:52,258
If I make the wrong choice...
168
00:18:52,758 --> 00:18:55,803
You think of yourself only.
169
00:18:55,886 --> 00:18:58,389
The living are all the same.
170
00:18:59,557 --> 00:19:04,145
From either your shadow at morning
sliding behind you,
171
00:19:04,228 --> 00:19:07,732
or your shadow at evening
rising to meet you,
172
00:19:08,316 --> 00:19:12,361
I will show you fear
in a handful of dust.
173
00:19:14,530 --> 00:19:16,365
I'm sorry. I should not have asked.
174
00:19:17,950 --> 00:19:20,661
I will say only this,
175
00:19:20,745 --> 00:19:25,458
that whatever else you do,
whatever you decide,
176
00:19:25,541 --> 00:19:29,503
do not betray your own gods
in the process.
177
00:19:30,463 --> 00:19:32,548
I don't understand.
178
00:19:32,631 --> 00:19:34,884
Why would I betray my own gods?
179
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,640
Don't let them run off.
180
00:19:45,186 --> 00:19:47,480
Need some more tiles
for the roof here.
181
00:19:53,778 --> 00:19:55,988
Look, Asa, it's Ubbe.
182
00:19:56,072 --> 00:19:58,324
And look what he's brought.
183
00:19:59,492 --> 00:20:01,410
There they are. Huh? Hello.
184
00:20:02,995 --> 00:20:05,790
Did you see the fat little piggy?
Go see him.
185
00:20:08,209 --> 00:20:10,044
How was your visit
to Kattegat?
186
00:20:11,587 --> 00:20:13,089
Do they still remember me?
187
00:20:13,923 --> 00:20:15,174
What do you think? Hmm?
188
00:20:17,176 --> 00:20:19,095
I saw Bjorn and Hvitserk.
189
00:20:19,178 --> 00:20:20,805
Bjorn is good.
190
00:20:20,888 --> 00:20:22,139
Hvitserk looked sick.
191
00:20:23,724 --> 00:20:26,060
He's still haunted
by the thoughts of Ivar.
192
00:20:27,686 --> 00:20:29,814
Sometimes I think of Ivar, too.
193
00:20:29,897 --> 00:20:33,734
I know that he is still
somehow part of all our fates,
194
00:20:33,818 --> 00:20:37,738
but we just have to accept it
and get on with our lives.
195
00:20:44,620 --> 00:20:46,330
I saw Ketill Flatnose.
196
00:20:47,540 --> 00:20:48,999
- Ketill Flatnose?
- Hmm.
197
00:20:49,291 --> 00:20:50,501
What was he doing?
198
00:20:50,584 --> 00:20:54,255
Trying to recruit more people
for their settlement in Iceland.
199
00:20:54,338 --> 00:20:56,173
That's what they're calling
their new land.
200
00:20:58,259 --> 00:20:59,677
What of Floki?
201
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,346
- Is Floki with him?
- No.
202
00:21:02,430 --> 00:21:06,934
He said that Floki became disenchanted
with their new life,
203
00:21:07,017 --> 00:21:09,603
and that he just disappeared
without warning.
204
00:21:14,233 --> 00:21:16,235
I wonder what has become of him.
205
00:21:21,907 --> 00:21:23,534
Floki can't be dead.
206
00:21:24,869 --> 00:21:26,162
I won't believe it.
207
00:21:28,372 --> 00:21:31,584
Ketill also told me that the wanderer
208
00:21:31,667 --> 00:21:34,336
who saw the uninhabited land
further to the west...
209
00:21:35,713 --> 00:21:39,341
his name is Othere,
and he lives in Iceland.
210
00:21:39,425 --> 00:21:41,177
I told him
that we would sail back with him
211
00:21:41,260 --> 00:21:42,761
so that I can meet with this Othere.
212
00:21:42,845 --> 00:21:45,222
- That's good news.
- Yes.
213
00:21:47,016 --> 00:21:48,476
Thank you for your gifts, Ubbe.
214
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,104
Now we have to decide
which animal to sacrifice,
215
00:21:52,188 --> 00:21:55,232
so the gods can bless this new dwelling.
216
00:21:55,316 --> 00:21:57,693
I will invite
the local villagers to join us,
217
00:21:57,776 --> 00:21:59,695
and we will feast.
218
00:22:00,905 --> 00:22:02,114
Hali!
219
00:22:04,033 --> 00:22:05,493
Bring the chickens.
220
00:22:11,207 --> 00:22:13,459
Ivar. Get up.
221
00:22:15,002 --> 00:22:16,420
We have to leave.
222
00:22:19,632 --> 00:22:21,050
I was dreaming...
223
00:22:22,510 --> 00:22:24,053
that my wine was poisoned
224
00:22:24,136 --> 00:22:26,597
and that's the reason
why I didn't drink it.
225
00:22:29,141 --> 00:22:31,560
Why did you have to kill your brother?
226
00:22:35,648 --> 00:22:37,650
Because this child belongs to me.
227
00:22:38,817 --> 00:22:41,028
Not to Askold, not to anyone else.
228
00:22:41,737 --> 00:22:44,782
His father made me his guardian.
229
00:22:44,865 --> 00:22:46,617
What did Askold do?
230
00:22:46,700 --> 00:22:47,826
I heard reports.
231
00:22:47,910 --> 00:22:50,704
Askold was grooming the child.
232
00:22:50,788 --> 00:22:53,207
He was trying to steal him away from me.
233
00:22:55,167 --> 00:22:57,086
And that I could not allow.
234
00:22:57,753 --> 00:22:58,879
He's just a child.
235
00:23:01,674 --> 00:23:02,883
No.
236
00:23:05,094 --> 00:23:07,346
He's not just a child.
237
00:23:08,138 --> 00:23:10,432
He's the only legitimate heir.
238
00:23:10,516 --> 00:23:13,686
To control him is to possess
the only keys to the kingdom.
239
00:23:15,312 --> 00:23:18,023
And I mean
to keep those keys safe about me.
240
00:23:18,691 --> 00:23:20,276
Hmm.
241
00:23:23,487 --> 00:23:25,281
Igor, wake up.
242
00:23:27,616 --> 00:23:28,616
Wake up!
243
00:23:41,672 --> 00:23:42,923
What is happening?
244
00:23:43,007 --> 00:23:45,676
Seems like we have visitors.
245
00:23:55,185 --> 00:23:57,521
Oleg, what is happening? Hmm?
246
00:23:58,814 --> 00:24:00,232
I forgot to tell you.
247
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,735
I have another brother.
248
00:24:04,069 --> 00:24:06,739
Seems like he wants to talk to us.
249
00:24:31,555 --> 00:24:33,390
You don't have to be afraid.
250
00:25:31,949 --> 00:25:33,200
Mmm-hmm.
251
00:25:33,575 --> 00:25:36,120
I think we should speak in his language.
252
00:25:38,622 --> 00:25:40,541
The fact is...
253
00:25:40,624 --> 00:25:43,627
you murdered our brother in cold blood,
254
00:25:43,711 --> 00:25:45,129
and you had no reason to do it.
255
00:25:45,546 --> 00:25:48,799
Hmm, I believe I had every reason.
256
00:25:51,510 --> 00:25:53,429
Many reasons.
257
00:25:53,512 --> 00:25:55,639
Enough reasons.
258
00:25:56,557 --> 00:25:59,643
Oleg, you see how things are?
259
00:26:02,104 --> 00:26:05,190
You are in a bad situation.
260
00:26:06,525 --> 00:26:08,110
An impossible situation.
261
00:26:10,028 --> 00:26:11,947
I ought to arrest you for murder.
262
00:26:13,949 --> 00:26:15,576
No one would help you.
263
00:26:16,869 --> 00:26:18,787
No matter how often you wash your hands,
264
00:26:18,871 --> 00:26:21,248
they still have our brother's blood
on them.
265
00:26:24,209 --> 00:26:26,462
Of course,
you can still avoid catastrophe.
266
00:26:31,300 --> 00:26:33,719
Hand over the boy, and you and the...
267
00:26:35,471 --> 00:26:37,473
cripple can leave.
268
00:26:39,308 --> 00:26:41,852
Otherwise, I might dispense
with the formalities
269
00:26:41,935 --> 00:26:45,355
and deal with you
as you dealt with our brother.
270
00:26:45,439 --> 00:26:47,483
You of all people should know better
271
00:26:47,566 --> 00:26:49,735
than to try to threaten
and blackmail me.
272
00:26:51,570 --> 00:26:53,363
I am the Prophet.
273
00:26:54,114 --> 00:26:57,701
And I know that unless you give me
and King Ivar and Prince Igor
274
00:26:57,785 --> 00:26:59,453
free passage back to Kiev...
275
00:27:01,079 --> 00:27:03,916
then something truly terrible
will happen to you.
276
00:27:07,836 --> 00:27:09,630
Not in a few months. No.
277
00:27:11,340 --> 00:27:13,842
Not even in a few weeks. No.
278
00:27:13,926 --> 00:27:17,012
But in a matter of days.
279
00:27:19,890 --> 00:27:21,308
Good try.
280
00:27:24,353 --> 00:27:28,190
You have two hours
to hand over the boy unharmed.
281
00:27:30,192 --> 00:27:32,402
Otherwise, I will proceed
as I suggested...
282
00:27:33,821 --> 00:27:35,155
brother.
283
00:27:45,249 --> 00:27:46,667
Is it true?
284
00:27:48,001 --> 00:27:50,254
What he said about you?
285
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,341
My brother has seen enough
of my prophecies come true
286
00:27:54,424 --> 00:27:56,051
to make him at least...
287
00:27:57,302 --> 00:27:58,929
pause for thought.
288
00:29:56,338 --> 00:29:57,756
Beautiful. Ivar?
289
00:30:13,939 --> 00:30:15,774
It's going to be a long day.
290
00:30:15,857 --> 00:30:17,192
What do you have?
291
00:30:29,913 --> 00:30:31,748
You are my wife's servant.
292
00:30:31,832 --> 00:30:33,041
What is your name?
293
00:30:33,667 --> 00:30:34,876
Ingrid.
294
00:30:38,088 --> 00:30:40,507
In this world,
you have to be so careful, Ingrid.
295
00:30:49,099 --> 00:30:50,726
I don't want to be careful.
296
00:31:02,779 --> 00:31:05,449
Take it all off! That's it!
297
00:31:07,492 --> 00:31:09,911
Mind the dock!
298
00:31:13,415 --> 00:31:14,624
Hali!
299
00:31:16,168 --> 00:31:18,170
Where are my children?
300
00:31:18,253 --> 00:31:21,089
Hali! Asa!
301
00:31:21,173 --> 00:31:22,591
Oh, come here!
302
00:31:24,092 --> 00:31:25,218
Hello!
303
00:31:25,719 --> 00:31:27,596
It is good to see you!
304
00:31:27,679 --> 00:31:29,306
Come, show me what you have built.
305
00:31:29,389 --> 00:31:32,142
It's over here. Hali built most of it.
306
00:31:32,225 --> 00:31:33,435
Did he?
307
00:31:33,518 --> 00:31:35,479
- You're right.
- Ha!
308
00:31:37,272 --> 00:31:39,691
Oh, it is so big!
309
00:31:42,444 --> 00:31:46,073
The King stoops
to visit a lonely old farmer.
310
00:31:46,531 --> 00:31:47,949
Ah, you don't look that lonely.
311
00:31:57,626 --> 00:31:59,461
- Ubbe.
- Bjorn.
312
00:31:59,544 --> 00:32:01,630
- Torvi.
- Hello, Bjorn.
313
00:32:02,672 --> 00:32:04,508
The children are always a credit to you.
314
00:32:05,383 --> 00:32:06,551
And Ubbe.
315
00:32:06,635 --> 00:32:08,595
And, of course, Ubbe.
316
00:32:09,679 --> 00:32:10,764
Brother.
317
00:32:11,598 --> 00:32:12,598
Come.
318
00:32:15,477 --> 00:32:16,686
Come on.
319
00:32:17,813 --> 00:32:19,439
Oh, I like this place.
320
00:32:22,150 --> 00:32:24,277
- You're a master builder, Hali.
- I know.
321
00:32:25,529 --> 00:32:27,614
Let's go inside.
322
00:32:47,926 --> 00:32:49,261
You have had two hours.
323
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,848
What is your decision?
324
00:32:52,931 --> 00:32:53,932
My decision?
325
00:32:55,100 --> 00:32:56,476
I told you.
326
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,770
Hand over the boy,
327
00:32:58,854 --> 00:33:02,107
or I kill you and the cripple.
328
00:33:02,816 --> 00:33:04,401
Mmm.
329
00:33:07,154 --> 00:33:09,531
Perhaps you have forgotten what I said.
330
00:33:09,614 --> 00:33:13,743
I said, unless you release
the three of us unharmed,
331
00:33:13,827 --> 00:33:16,746
then in a day or so,
a terrible thing will happen to you.
332
00:33:17,372 --> 00:33:18,665
I don't believe you.
333
00:33:19,791 --> 00:33:21,293
You don't really have second sight.
334
00:33:23,128 --> 00:33:25,672
I think maybe you should believe him.
335
00:33:25,755 --> 00:33:27,007
What has this to do with you?
336
00:33:27,591 --> 00:33:28,800
Nothing.
337
00:33:30,260 --> 00:33:31,469
Everything.
338
00:33:35,599 --> 00:33:36,933
You are bluffing.
339
00:33:38,101 --> 00:33:39,936
But let me give you...
340
00:33:41,396 --> 00:33:43,315
the benefit of the doubt...
341
00:33:44,649 --> 00:33:47,736
and ask you a question
that only a true prophet could answer.
342
00:33:49,821 --> 00:33:51,448
I recently got married.
343
00:33:52,699 --> 00:33:53,909
In secret.
344
00:33:58,288 --> 00:34:01,958
The identity of my wife
is only known to a few trusted servants.
345
00:34:02,042 --> 00:34:05,795
Not even Askold knew about my nuptials
and the name of my wife.
346
00:34:07,214 --> 00:34:08,632
But I assume...
347
00:34:11,134 --> 00:34:12,761
that you know.
348
00:34:15,597 --> 00:34:17,015
Don't you, brother?
349
00:34:21,603 --> 00:34:22,646
Yes.
350
00:34:23,855 --> 00:34:25,690
I know your wife's name.
351
00:34:27,234 --> 00:34:28,860
I know everything.
352
00:34:59,683 --> 00:35:02,394
Believe me, Bjorn,
I respect your decision
353
00:35:02,477 --> 00:35:05,480
to try and settle matters
with King Harald.
354
00:35:05,563 --> 00:35:06,940
But you must remember,
355
00:35:07,023 --> 00:35:10,402
Harald betrayed me personally.
356
00:35:10,485 --> 00:35:12,570
He kidnapped Astrid.
357
00:35:12,654 --> 00:35:14,030
He lied to me.
358
00:35:14,114 --> 00:35:17,075
I do not believe that he is trustworthy.
359
00:35:17,158 --> 00:35:18,994
I understand.
360
00:35:19,077 --> 00:35:21,997
And I'm sure that if I were you,
I would not go to his aid.
361
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,958
I would let King Olaf kill him,
and I would not be troubled.
362
00:35:25,625 --> 00:35:27,002
But I am not you.
363
00:35:28,086 --> 00:35:31,131
I remember I was in a room with Ivar,
at his mercy,
364
00:35:31,214 --> 00:35:35,010
and King Harald said,
"Stop. No, this is not our way."
365
00:35:35,927 --> 00:35:38,346
And for me, since King Harald
and I have become allies,
366
00:35:38,430 --> 00:35:40,974
this is not our way.
It is not my way to abandon him.
367
00:35:41,057 --> 00:35:45,770
I remember I refused
to go raiding with Ragnar,
368
00:35:45,854 --> 00:35:49,441
precisely because I feared
to leave Kattegat undefended.
369
00:35:49,524 --> 00:35:51,443
Kattegat won't go undefended.
370
00:35:51,526 --> 00:35:52,819
Hvitserk can look after it.
371
00:36:00,035 --> 00:36:01,286
What?
372
00:36:01,369 --> 00:36:03,246
I saw Hvitserk when I was in town.
373
00:36:05,081 --> 00:36:06,583
Well, frankly, brother, he is not fit
374
00:36:06,666 --> 00:36:08,710
to be left in charge
of the defenses of Kattegat.
375
00:36:08,793 --> 00:36:10,503
What do you mean?
376
00:36:10,587 --> 00:36:12,005
You know what I mean.
377
00:36:13,673 --> 00:36:17,260
Hvitserk is a sick man,
and he's a drunk.
378
00:36:21,931 --> 00:36:22,974
Yes.
379
00:36:24,267 --> 00:36:25,685
I can't deny it.
380
00:36:27,228 --> 00:36:29,356
Which means there's only one thing.
381
00:36:29,439 --> 00:36:32,400
I know you and Torvi are very anxious
to embark on your great journey.
382
00:36:33,526 --> 00:36:37,322
I myself remember very well
the great sense of satisfaction,
383
00:36:37,405 --> 00:36:39,741
the great sense of expectation,
the great feeling of desire
384
00:36:39,824 --> 00:36:41,242
to be free.
385
00:36:41,326 --> 00:36:42,744
To be Viking.
386
00:36:44,287 --> 00:36:45,997
But I would ask you
to delay your journey.
387
00:36:46,748 --> 00:36:48,458
Delay your journey
only for a little while,
388
00:36:48,541 --> 00:36:49,667
while I deal with King Olaf.
389
00:36:49,751 --> 00:36:51,836
Look after Kattegat.
Look after Hvitserk.
390
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,298
And then go, with my blessing.
391
00:37:01,346 --> 00:37:03,890
- Hmm.
- Hmm.
392
00:37:05,642 --> 00:37:07,519
We agree.
393
00:37:07,602 --> 00:37:09,020
Thank you.
394
00:37:11,523 --> 00:37:12,732
Thank you.
395
00:37:20,949 --> 00:37:22,575
What are you waiting for?
396
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,581
Tell me her name.
397
00:37:37,924 --> 00:37:39,843
You see?
398
00:37:39,926 --> 00:37:41,344
He doesn't know her name.
399
00:37:42,887 --> 00:37:44,764
He's bluffing after all.
400
00:37:46,224 --> 00:37:48,601
I knew it.
401
00:37:48,685 --> 00:37:51,020
You don't know her name.
402
00:37:51,104 --> 00:37:53,106
Anna.
403
00:37:53,189 --> 00:37:54,816
Her name is Anna.
404
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,530
You were married at the Church
of St. Magnus Martyr here in Novgorod.
405
00:38:02,574 --> 00:38:05,201
I believe this is the lady in question.
406
00:38:22,302 --> 00:38:23,303
Am I right?
407
00:38:24,012 --> 00:38:25,930
This is your new bride, Anna.
408
00:38:28,975 --> 00:38:31,060
Now, my dearest brother,
409
00:38:32,270 --> 00:38:36,191
you will give the three of us
free passage out of here...
410
00:38:37,484 --> 00:38:39,444
or my promise will come true.
411
00:38:45,283 --> 00:38:48,036
Order the warriors to stand down.
412
00:38:48,119 --> 00:38:52,373
Prince Oleg and his party
should be untroubled when they leave...
413
00:38:52,999 --> 00:38:55,543
if they agree not to harm my wife.
414
00:38:56,544 --> 00:39:00,006
I don't need to harm your wife.
Anna, come. Come.
415
00:39:04,969 --> 00:39:07,722
We meet so rarely, Dir.
416
00:39:09,390 --> 00:39:12,894
It's unfortunate
that it has to be in such circumstances.
417
00:39:14,312 --> 00:39:15,855
But the next time...
418
00:39:16,648 --> 00:39:18,233
will be different.
419
00:39:19,317 --> 00:39:21,402
You have the boy.
420
00:39:21,486 --> 00:39:23,196
You don't need to see me again.
421
00:39:23,279 --> 00:39:25,532
But we are family.
422
00:39:25,615 --> 00:39:27,534
Family is important.
423
00:39:31,204 --> 00:39:32,413
Dir!
424
00:39:33,623 --> 00:39:35,041
We should stay in touch.
425
00:39:37,710 --> 00:39:39,128
Perhaps.
426
00:39:40,296 --> 00:39:42,340
Just don't invite me for dinner.
427
00:39:46,135 --> 00:39:48,638
You forgot to say goodbye
to the cripple!
428
00:40:08,866 --> 00:40:10,618
I have made up my mind.
429
00:40:16,583 --> 00:40:19,460
I have decided
to answer King Harald's cry for help.
430
00:40:25,300 --> 00:40:26,759
I think you're crazy.
431
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:34,642
I'm sure that doesn't matter to you.
432
00:41:24,067 --> 00:41:25,360
King Bjorn.
433
00:41:25,443 --> 00:41:27,737
I wanted to catch you before you left.
434
00:41:28,863 --> 00:41:29,989
You told Ubbe and the others
435
00:41:30,073 --> 00:41:32,367
that Floki just abandoned
the Iceland settlement.
436
00:41:32,450 --> 00:41:33,868
Yes.
437
00:41:33,951 --> 00:41:36,871
He was unhappy with many things, and...
438
00:41:36,954 --> 00:41:38,373
simply disappeared.
439
00:41:41,709 --> 00:41:43,127
And you searched for him?
440
00:41:45,838 --> 00:41:48,466
You never found a body?
441
00:41:50,927 --> 00:41:52,804
Huh.
442
00:41:54,514 --> 00:41:57,392
What do you suppose
happened to him?
443
00:42:00,186 --> 00:42:01,604
I don't know.
444
00:42:03,189 --> 00:42:04,399
How should I know?
445
00:42:06,526 --> 00:42:09,612
I have a feeling
you know a lot more than you admit.
446
00:42:12,407 --> 00:42:13,866
So, here's what I suggest.
447
00:42:15,660 --> 00:42:18,579
I'm raising an army. Join me.
448
00:42:19,455 --> 00:42:22,375
Forget about your settlement in Iceland
for a while and come with me.
449
00:42:23,793 --> 00:42:26,713
Of course, you're always free to say no
and go on your own way.
450
00:42:28,131 --> 00:42:30,800
But that would make me
even more suspicious.
451
00:42:33,469 --> 00:42:34,554
No.
452
00:42:36,055 --> 00:42:38,683
I will go with you, Bjorn Ironside.
453
00:42:39,350 --> 00:42:40,393
Good choice.
