But let me remind you,
116
00:08:59,973 --> 00:09:03,777
that the gods
always forgive each other.
117
00:09:03,811 --> 00:09:05,879
Well, not always.
They couldn't forgive
118
00:09:05,913 --> 00:09:08,582
Loki's murder of Balder,
Odin's son.
119
00:09:08,616 --> 00:09:11,184
But the exception proves the rule!
120

For the most parts,
121
00:09:12,620 --> 00:09:15,789
gods, being human,
understand human nature.
122
00:09:15,823 --> 00:09:17,457
They understand jealousy.
123
00:09:17,490 --> 00:09:19,259
They understand ambition.
124
00:09:19,292 --> 00:09:22,963
They understand how people
who love each other
125
00:09:22,996 --> 00:09:24,431
can end up challenging
126
00:09:24,464 --> 00:09:26,634

murdering those they love!

He was young.
134

The responsibility was too great
135
00:09:50,523 --> 00:09:53,160
and he forgot
the lessons of his father.
136
00:09:55,929 --> 00:09:58,098
And his brother, Hvitserk...
137
00:09:58,131 --> 00:10:00,467
He never meant to kill Lagertha.
138
00:10:00,500 --> 00:10:03,436

to kill such a goddess!

and their mistakes.
142
00:10:15,448 --> 00:10:17,084

but they are also sons of Ragnar.
146

Well, thank you.
160
00:12:55,708 --> 00:12:57,978
I tried to speak the truth.
161
00:12:58,011 --> 00:13:00,413
No one's really
interested in the truth.
162
00:13:00,447 --> 00:13:01,882
On the contrary.
163
00:13:01,915 --> 00:13:04,784
No. Hvitserk is right.
164
00:13:04,818 --> 00:13:07,087
This has nothing to do
with the truth.
165
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,423
You're all used to having
power and influence,
166
00:13:10,457 --> 00:13:12,459
but there can only be
one king here.
167

intend to attack us again,

00:13:18,231 --> 00:13:19,566
what will you all do?
170
00:13:22,369 --> 00:13:25,438
You are men who are easily bored.

00:14:51,458 --> 00:14:54,761
I don't think my destiny,
or yours,
188
00:14:55,495 --> 00:14:56,663
lies here.
189
00:14:57,897 --> 00:14:59,399
But then, on the other hand,
190
00:14:59,432 --> 00:15:01,768
I have no idea
where I'm supposed to go.
191
00:15:04,504 --> 00:15:06,606
It feels
192
00:15:06,639 --> 00:15:09,576
- as if I'm in an open boat.
- [water splashing]
193
00:15:11,478 --> 00:15:12,879
Lost at sea,
194
00:15:12,912 --> 00:15:14,814
with no land in sight.
195
00:15:15,615 --> 00:15:17,584
No purpose,
196
00:15:17,617 --> 00:15:19,953
no meaning to my voyage.
197
00:15:22,189 --> 00:15:23,756
Don't you ever feel the same?
198
00:15:27,627 --> 00:15:29,796
I've been lost for so long.
199
00:15:31,264 --> 00:15:33,266
I wouldn't recognize
the alternative.
200
00:15:37,704 --> 00:15:38,838
[scoffs]
201
00:15:42,342 --> 00:15:44,044
[fire crackling]
202
00:15:49,949 --> 00:15:51,418
[boat creaking]
203
00:15:55,955 --> 00:15:57,057
Tell me, Othere,
204
00:15:58,391 --> 00:16:00,060
what are your earliest memories?
205
00:16:01,594 --> 00:16:04,031
I don't remember anything
about my early life.
206
00:16:06,133 --> 00:16:07,367
That's impossible.
207
00:16:09,569 --> 00:16:10,803
Very well, then.
208
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,110
I hated everything
about my childhood.
209
00:16:17,144 --> 00:16:19,012
I could not wait to grow up.
210
00:16:19,046 --> 00:16:20,847
To be older.
211
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,650
To choose who I wanted to be.
212
00:16:26,019 --> 00:16:27,354
But you were Viking.
213
00:16:29,356 --> 00:16:31,291
That's what you told us.
214
00:16:31,324 --> 00:16:34,027
I told you so that
you would be happy.
215
00:16:34,061 --> 00:16:36,429
You could know me.
Place me.
216
00:16:37,664 --> 00:16:38,998
I don't need to be comforted.
217
00:16:39,732 --> 00:16:40,867
Are you sure?
218
00:16:42,702 --> 00:16:45,438
I am growing tired of your games
219
00:16:46,673 --> 00:16:49,042
and your refusal to be honest.
220
00:16:51,010 --> 00:16:53,680
I look around
and I see the truth...
221
00:16:55,048 --> 00:16:56,216
Where we are,
222
00:16:57,084 --> 00:16:58,585
what has become of us.
223
00:17:00,787 --> 00:17:01,988
Don't tell me that
you're beginning
224
00:17:02,021 --> 00:17:03,423
to lose your faith, Ubbe.
225
00:17:04,591 --> 00:17:06,259
Not you.
226
00:17:06,293 --> 00:17:07,894
Surely not you.
227
00:17:26,379 --> 00:17:27,480
[sniffling]
228
00:17:27,514 --> 00:17:28,515
[whimpers]
229
00:17:38,425 --> 00:17:40,260
What happened?
230
00:17:40,293 --> 00:17:43,096
He died in the night.
231
00:17:43,130 --> 00:17:45,732
His mother told me
he'd been drinking sea water.
232
00:17:48,635 --> 00:17:49,802
[crying]
233
00:17:58,845 --> 00:18:00,413
May I give him this?
234
00:18:00,980 --> 00:18:02,081
[sobs]
235
00:18:03,716 --> 00:18:04,884
[sniffles]
236
00:18:10,257 --> 00:18:11,958
[continues weeping]
237
00:18:11,991 --> 00:18:13,260
[chanting in Latin]
238
00:18:21,301 --> 00:18:22,702
There is so little food.
239
00:18:23,536 --> 00:18:24,771
So little water.
240
00:18:26,606 --> 00:18:28,641
That poor boy
is just the first of many.
241
00:18:30,343 --> 00:18:31,478
I know.
242
00:18:58,171 --> 00:19:00,440
[Ivar] I have been away,
O Ancient One.
243
00:19:02,074 --> 00:19:05,178
[Seer] Oh, I have watched you.
244
00:19:05,212 --> 00:19:08,481
Though blind, do you imagine
that I don't see?
245
00:19:08,515 --> 00:19:11,117
[waves lapping]
246
00:19:14,321 --> 00:19:16,456
I'm not sure
I should have returned.
247
00:19:17,724 --> 00:19:19,326
Harald is suspicious
248
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:20,860
that I have come to overthrow him.
249
00:19:22,395 --> 00:19:24,464
Perhaps I should,
250
00:19:24,497 --> 00:19:27,166
since I despise the thought
of serving him.
251
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:28,401
[Seer chuckles]
252
00:19:30,069 --> 00:19:32,339
Poor Ivar.
253
00:19:32,372 --> 00:19:34,241
Connecting nothing with nothing.
254
00:19:36,876 --> 00:19:38,611
Think of your father...
255
00:19:39,246 --> 00:19:40,380
Sat here,
256
00:19:41,248 --> 00:19:43,015
dreaming his dreams...
257
00:19:44,651 --> 00:19:47,420
of places beyond all this.
258
00:19:48,821 --> 00:19:49,889
Don't you remember?
259
00:19:54,026 --> 00:19:55,862
Then here is not my fate.
260
00:19:55,895 --> 00:19:57,564
[Seer] I cannot advise you.
261
00:19:58,631 --> 00:19:59,999
But I saw in your pocket
262
00:20:00,032 --> 00:20:02,469
a possible answer
to your question.
263
00:20:06,473 --> 00:20:07,940
Ivar, the Boneless.
264
00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:48,948
[Hvitserk] My dear brother.
265
00:20:48,981 --> 00:20:51,684
I have to congratulate you
on the manner of your death.
266
00:20:51,718 --> 00:20:55,187
It was very much
in keeping with your legend.
267
00:20:55,221 --> 00:20:57,156
How the High One
must have celebrated
268
00:20:57,189 --> 00:20:59,326
your arrival in his Great Hall.
269
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,662
How the gods must have raised
their brimming horns
270
00:21:02,695 --> 00:21:05,298
to salute Bjorn Ironside,
271
00:21:05,332 --> 00:21:06,499
son of Ragnar.
272
00:21:07,467 --> 00:21:09,135
When I join you,
273
00:21:09,168 --> 00:21:11,270
there will be no celebrations.
274
00:21:13,105 --> 00:21:15,708
Perhaps you would have
a kind word to me...
275
00:21:17,444 --> 00:21:19,211
but that would only make it worse.
276
00:21:20,447 --> 00:21:23,650
For we both know I'm not worthy.
277
00:21:23,683 --> 00:21:26,386
I haven't earned
my place in Valhalla,
278
00:21:26,419 --> 00:21:31,358
and its doors will only open to me
because I too am a son of Ragnar Lothbrok.
279
00:21:34,694 --> 00:21:37,129
What have I really done
in life, huh?
280
00:21:38,030 --> 00:21:39,366
I was a drunk,
281
00:21:40,700 --> 00:21:42,068
a profligate.
282
00:21:44,136 --> 00:21:45,505
I abandoned Ubbe,
283
00:21:46,573 --> 00:21:48,207
the brother I loved the most.
284
00:21:50,377 --> 00:21:51,878
I killed Lagertha.
285
00:21:54,180 --> 00:21:58,284
The only two women I've ever
loved both met miserable ends.
286
00:22:01,888 --> 00:22:03,289
I never married,
287
00:22:04,757 --> 00:22:06,359
never had any children.
288
00:22:08,428 --> 00:22:09,696
[sniffles]
289
00:22:09,729 --> 00:22:11,431
I follow Ivar around
like his shadow,
290
00:22:12,999 --> 00:22:14,934
and I don't even know why.
291
00:22:19,772 --> 00:22:22,742
The gods must despise me.
292
00:22:22,775 --> 00:22:25,712
But you must know all about
this by now, Bjorn.
293
00:22:25,745 --> 00:22:27,714
You must hear their conversations,
294
00:22:28,481 --> 00:22:29,816
their laughter.
295
00:22:32,151 --> 00:22:33,886
Which is why a kind word from you
296
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,588
would only lacerate my soul.
297
00:22:37,757 --> 00:22:41,794
[Idun] Hvitserk, do not think
so unkindly of the gods.
298
00:22:49,902 --> 00:22:51,203
[Hvitserk] Who are you?
299
00:22:52,405 --> 00:22:53,773
Are you a ghost?
300
00:22:53,806 --> 00:22:56,976
No. My name is Idun.
301
00:22:58,277 --> 00:22:59,746
And I know all about you.
302
00:23:01,013 --> 00:23:02,549
I will spend tonight with you,
303
00:23:03,883 --> 00:23:05,284
if you desire it.
304
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,423
[indistinct chatter]
305
00:23:13,225 --> 00:23:14,461
[Ivar] You have it made here.
306
00:23:18,130 --> 00:23:19,899
[Harald] Yes.
That's what I thought.
307
00:23:22,902 --> 00:23:24,737
Are you saying it's not true?
308
00:23:28,140 --> 00:23:30,109
I don't know
why I should tell you,
309
00:23:30,142 --> 00:23:31,478
but I suppose...
310
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,516
if you are a god, you know anyway.
311
00:23:36,549 --> 00:23:37,383
[Ivar chuckles]
312
00:23:44,356 --> 00:23:47,093
I'm not sure I was meant to rule.
313
00:23:50,129 --> 00:23:53,466
I always imagined ruling
was my destiny.
314
00:23:53,500 --> 00:23:56,002
I wanted to be king of all Norway.
315
00:23:58,871 --> 00:24:03,676
I even challenged
Bjorn Ironside for that title,
316
00:24:05,645 --> 00:24:07,446
and I cheated it to make it mine.
317
00:24:08,615 --> 00:24:10,249
But now...
318
00:24:11,784 --> 00:24:13,352
I'm not sure I ever really
319
00:24:14,621 --> 00:24:15,922
wanted it after all.
320
00:24:21,628 --> 00:24:25,865
Being king brings
so little pleasure,
321
00:24:25,898 --> 00:24:28,568
so little satisfaction.
322
00:24:30,169 --> 00:24:31,904
Don't you agree,
323
00:24:33,339 --> 00:24:34,373
King Ivar?
324
00:25:15,982 --> 00:25:17,416
I came back here, I...
325
00:25:19,251 --> 00:25:22,488
thought I could reinvent myself.
326
00:25:22,521 --> 00:25:24,757
- [chuckles]
- Be the person that I once was.
327
00:25:26,025 --> 00:25:28,327
Be the person
328
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:30,196
who wanted to rule,
329
00:25:32,298 --> 00:25:37,570
who wanted to do anything
to claim a throne.
330
00:25:41,307 --> 00:25:43,075
But sitting on that throne...
331
00:25:45,912 --> 00:25:47,013
means nothing.
332
00:25:53,285 --> 00:25:56,155
There is an illusion of power
333
00:25:56,188 --> 00:25:59,358
that induces inside you
a kind of madness.
334
00:26:02,829 --> 00:26:04,163
Isn't that true?
335
00:26:07,767 --> 00:26:09,235
Isn't it true, Ivar?
336
00:26:12,438 --> 00:26:13,372
Admit it!
337
00:26:13,405 --> 00:26:16,776
Yes. Yes.
338
00:26:18,778 --> 00:26:19,912
It's true.
339
00:26:29,555 --> 00:26:32,825
[inaudible]
340
00:26:50,777 --> 00:26:54,280
I'm not sure I like
what I have returned to.
341
00:26:56,015 --> 00:26:58,250
I don't really want
to rule Kattegat.
342
00:26:58,284 --> 00:27:01,153
I think ruling Kattegat
will be boring.
343
00:27:03,589 --> 00:27:06,659
And, in the meantime,
I'm married to a witch,
344
00:27:06,693 --> 00:27:09,696
who I know does not love me
at all.
345
00:27:11,163 --> 00:27:15,401
And the woman that I love,
truly, is dead.
346
00:27:16,669 --> 00:27:18,504
And that may be my fault, too.
347
00:27:18,537 --> 00:27:20,639
Let's not talk about love.
348
00:27:23,676 --> 00:27:25,577
Well, at least you have
brothers to talk to.
349
00:27:25,611 --> 00:27:29,015
I have no one.
I'm always alone.
350
00:27:31,150 --> 00:27:32,484
No.
351
00:27:34,020 --> 00:27:36,122
Your brother Halfdan is here.
352
00:27:38,190 --> 00:27:39,892
He's listening to us right now.
353
00:27:41,527 --> 00:27:43,629
So is my father,
354
00:27:43,662 --> 00:27:45,231
my mother, and my brothers.
355
00:27:47,033 --> 00:27:48,434
Everyone is around us.
356
00:27:50,436 --> 00:27:51,738
Don't you believe that?
357
00:27:55,541 --> 00:27:56,909
[sighs]
358
00:27:56,943 --> 00:27:58,811
Halfdan is gone.
359
00:27:58,845 --> 00:28:00,379
It's a long time ago now.
360
00:28:03,315 --> 00:28:04,884
I killed him, of course.
361
00:28:08,420 --> 00:28:10,522
Do you think he
would come to visit me?
362
00:28:18,898 --> 00:28:20,599
I hope the gods forgive me.
363
00:28:23,469 --> 00:28:25,037
But I don't think it's possible.
364
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,448
[Idun speaking other language]
365
00:28:47,559 --> 00:28:49,195
[continues speaking
other language]
366
00:28:49,228 --> 00:28:50,496
[thunder rumbling]
367
00:28:54,166 --> 00:28:56,368
I know who you are.
368
00:28:56,402 --> 00:29:00,239
Idun, the goddess blessed
with eternal youth.
369
00:29:04,110 --> 00:29:05,978
Odin must have sent you to me.
370
00:29:10,616 --> 00:29:14,286
I am not acting under orders.
371
00:29:15,621 --> 00:29:18,324
I have watched you all your life.
372
00:29:19,826 --> 00:29:22,929
Shared your joys and your pain.
373
00:29:25,865 --> 00:29:28,100
And so I decided to appear to you,
374
00:29:28,868 --> 00:29:30,036
as you deserve.
375
00:29:34,173 --> 00:29:35,541
[voice trembles]
Will you stay with me?
376
00:29:37,443 --> 00:29:39,611
Only till the dawn.
377
00:29:39,645 --> 00:29:42,648
But the dawn is a long,
long way away.
378
00:29:48,187 --> 00:29:50,489
So weep no more, sweet Hvitserk.
379
00:29:51,657 --> 00:29:53,125
Weep no more.
380
00:29:58,898 --> 00:29:59,999
[door closes]
381
00:30:04,003 --> 00:30:05,071
[exhales]
382
00:30:09,408 --> 00:30:10,542
[grunts]
383
00:30:14,780 --> 00:30:17,416
[Ragnar] People think that you
are not a threat,
384
00:30:17,449 --> 00:30:19,151
but I know differently.
385
00:30:23,189 --> 00:30:24,756
Out of all of my sons,
386
00:30:24,790 --> 00:30:27,493
it was you I wanted to bring here,
387
00:30:27,526 --> 00:30:29,061
and it is you
388
00:30:29,095 --> 00:30:31,697
that I believe is
the most important
389
00:30:31,730 --> 00:30:33,499
to the future of our people.
390
00:30:35,902 --> 00:30:37,469
You do not think like other men.
391
00:30:37,503 --> 00:30:38,905
You are unpredictable.
392
00:30:40,339 --> 00:30:42,341
[breathes heavily]
393
00:30:42,374 --> 00:30:44,476
Anger is a gift!
394
00:30:44,510 --> 00:30:46,412
What is in here is a gift!
395
00:30:51,217 --> 00:30:52,218
[grunts]
396
00:31:09,035 --> 00:31:10,769
[breathing deeply]
397
00:31:43,235 --> 00:31:44,336
[moaning softly]
398
00:31:52,378 --> 00:31:54,880
[grunts]
399
00:31:54,913 --> 00:31:58,184
[Ragnar] Everyone will always
underestimate you.
400
00:31:58,217 --> 00:32:00,152
You must make them pay for it.
401
00:32:00,186 --> 00:32:03,089
Use your anger intelligently.
402
00:32:03,122 --> 00:32:05,024
And I promise you, my son,
403
00:32:05,057 --> 00:32:08,394
that one day, the whole
world will know
404
00:32:08,427 --> 00:32:12,164
and fear Ivar, the Boneless.
405
00:32:16,635 --> 00:32:17,936
Be ruthless.
406
00:32:43,795 --> 00:32:45,797
[rain pattering]
407
00:33:06,885 --> 00:33:08,620
[sobbing]
408
00:33:32,544 --> 00:33:34,246
[laughing]
409
00:33:50,529 --> 00:33:53,599
[vocalizing]
410
00:34:44,116 --> 00:34:47,319
- [continues vocalizing]
- [singing in Old Norse]
411
00:34:48,987 --> 00:34:50,088
[Othere stops singing]
412
00:35:29,728 --> 00:35:32,398
[indistinct chatter]
413
00:36:45,737 --> 00:36:46,972
[laughter]
414
00:36:47,939 --> 00:36:49,608
[tapping]
415
00:36:49,641 --> 00:36:51,877
[man 1] Give me my money!
416
00:36:51,910 --> 00:36:53,579
Give me my money!
Give me, give me.
417
00:36:53,612 --> 00:36:54,880
[man 2] You already have it!
418
00:36:54,913 --> 00:36:58,550
You joker!
Give me my money!
419
00:36:58,584 --> 00:37:00,752
You give me my money!
420
00:37:04,222 --> 00:37:05,424
You get two, unless...
421
00:37:09,395 --> 00:37:10,562
[man] What did you do that for?
422
00:37:13,265 --> 00:37:14,733
Hey, you! Cripple!
423
00:37:17,836 --> 00:37:20,038
Queen Ingrid told us
that in time of peace
424
00:37:20,071 --> 00:37:22,808
we would have no choice
but to fall out with each other.
425
00:37:22,841 --> 00:37:24,175
It's true.
426
00:37:24,209 --> 00:37:25,744
No doubt that
we'd all like to deny it,
427
00:37:25,777 --> 00:37:27,613
but it will happen.
428
00:37:27,646 --> 00:37:30,982
Unless there is still something
left for us to do together.
429
00:37:32,384 --> 00:37:34,653
There is, and this is it.
430
00:37:42,794 --> 00:37:44,396
Please, Ragnar, drink.
431
00:37:44,430 --> 00:37:46,332
Please drink.
432
00:37:46,365 --> 00:37:47,633
He won't feed.
433
00:37:49,868 --> 00:37:51,603
He can't die.
434
00:37:51,637 --> 00:37:54,005
- Of course he can die.
- No!
435
00:37:54,039 --> 00:37:56,241
- It's impossible.
- You're not a god.
436
00:37:56,274 --> 00:37:57,443
You can't save him.
437
00:37:58,009 --> 00:37:59,010
[yells]
438
00:38:00,646 --> 00:38:02,714
This is my fault!
439
00:38:02,748 --> 00:38:04,750
We should never
have left Kattegat!
440
00:38:07,319 --> 00:38:09,388
Why are we dying here,
441
00:38:09,421 --> 00:38:11,423
in the middle of nowhere?
442
00:38:11,457 --> 00:38:13,459
In the middle of the ocean?
443
00:38:13,492 --> 00:38:15,761
It was not your decision, Ubbe.
444
00:38:15,794 --> 00:38:19,498
The gods have brought us here.
The gods have decided our fate.
445
00:38:19,531 --> 00:38:24,336
Unfortunately,
Ubbe has lost his faith.
446
00:38:24,370 --> 00:38:27,072
He no longer believes.
Do you, Ubbe?
447
00:38:28,374 --> 00:38:29,675
- [grunts]
- Ubbe!
448
00:38:30,809 --> 00:38:32,678
Ubbe, please, no!
449
00:38:32,711 --> 00:38:34,446
No!
450
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,314
Ubbe!
451
00:38:36,348 --> 00:38:38,650
- Ubbe, no! Stop it!
- [yelling]
452
00:38:39,685 --> 00:38:41,520
Don't you understand?
453
00:38:41,553 --> 00:38:45,023
If you behave like this,
if you try to murder one another,
454
00:38:45,056 --> 00:38:48,026
then we're just like Kjetill
and those we left behind.
455
00:38:48,059 --> 00:38:49,828
We are no different.
456
00:38:49,861 --> 00:38:52,531
What is the point in
trying to find a new land,
457
00:38:52,564 --> 00:38:55,266
if we behave just the same
as we did in the old one?
458
00:38:56,535 --> 00:38:59,337
Ubbe, for the love of the gods.
459
00:39:16,321 --> 00:39:17,689
[thunder cracks]
460
00:39:25,130 --> 00:39:27,566
[indistinct chatter]
461
00:39:29,535 --> 00:39:31,737
My friends,
462
00:39:31,770 --> 00:39:34,005
I have exciting news.
463
00:39:34,039 --> 00:39:38,309
Well, what kind of a king would I be,
if I didn't bring you exciting news?
464
00:39:38,343 --> 00:39:40,712
[all laughing]
465
00:39:40,746 --> 00:39:46,117
King Bjorn believed that
Kattegat could exist by trade alone.
466
00:39:46,918 --> 00:39:49,555
It is not true.
467
00:39:49,588 --> 00:39:52,758
Of course it is true that we
have always been traders.
468
00:39:52,791 --> 00:39:54,860
We have gone
to the ends of the Earth
469
00:39:54,893 --> 00:39:57,529
to trade with other peoples,
other cultures.
470
00:39:57,563 --> 00:40:00,799
But these,
our Scandinavian countries, are small.
471
00:40:00,832 --> 00:40:02,768
And we don't have
that much to trade.
472
00:40:02,801 --> 00:40:06,438
Instead, we have
raided far and wide.
473
00:40:06,472 --> 00:40:07,806
[crowd shouting agreement]
474
00:40:07,839 --> 00:40:10,341
And our raids
have been successful.
475
00:40:10,375 --> 00:40:12,377
[crowd] Yes!
476
00:40:12,410 --> 00:40:16,381
We have a presence now
in England, in Ireland,
477
00:40:16,414 --> 00:40:20,051
in Frankia, and even in Rus!
478
00:40:20,085 --> 00:40:21,887
[crowd] Yes!
479
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,891
We have started to put
down roots in all these places.
480
00:40:25,924 --> 00:40:30,762
And our influence has grown
out of all proportion to our size.
481
00:40:32,330 --> 00:40:35,667
Unless we continue raiding,
482
00:40:35,701 --> 00:40:38,069
continue to win battles,
483
00:40:38,103 --> 00:40:40,606
take territory,
484
00:40:40,639 --> 00:40:44,309
we will soon lose everything
we have gained so far.
485
00:40:46,645 --> 00:40:49,648
In England,
we have a foothold in York,
486
00:40:49,681 --> 00:40:51,950
in Mercia, and Northumberland.
487
00:40:51,983 --> 00:40:56,321
And we still have a
settlement in Wessex,
488
00:40:56,354 --> 00:40:58,289
that Ubbe won for us.
489
00:41:00,559 --> 00:41:01,760
But Wessex
490
00:41:02,794 --> 00:41:05,196
remains powerful,
491
00:41:05,230 --> 00:41:08,099
remains the last
great kingdom of England.
492
00:41:08,133 --> 00:41:13,539
Its king, Alfred,
receives homage from all Saxon tribes.
493
00:41:15,541 --> 00:41:18,109
And if we leave his kingdom alone,
494
00:41:18,143 --> 00:41:21,647
then, surely,
he will destroy our settlements,
495
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,816
and regain all his lost fiefdoms.
496
00:41:28,153 --> 00:41:29,655
We cannot allow it.
497
00:41:30,388 --> 00:41:32,190
[crowd murmuring]
498
00:41:44,169 --> 00:41:46,905
They tell me that all our
great heroes are dead.
499
00:41:48,073 --> 00:41:49,507
And perhaps you believe it.
500
00:41:50,909 --> 00:41:53,712
For it seems to me,
that while our kinsmen
501
00:41:53,745 --> 00:41:56,014
struggle and fight abroad,
502
00:41:56,047 --> 00:41:58,817
all of you have settled for
comfortable lives here in Kattegat,
503
00:41:58,850 --> 00:42:03,154
living off the fat of the land,
forgetting who you really are,
504
00:42:03,188 --> 00:42:06,658
forgetting that you're Vikings,
505
00:42:06,692 --> 00:42:10,662
the sons and daughters of the gods,
longing for Valhalla.
506
00:42:15,901 --> 00:42:20,739
Is it for this
that Ragnar Lothbrok died?
507
00:42:20,772 --> 00:42:23,341
Is it for your easy living,
your temperate days,
508
00:42:23,374 --> 00:42:25,210
that he sacrificed his life?
509
00:42:28,246 --> 00:42:31,416
I was there when my father died.
510
00:42:31,449 --> 00:42:35,253
I watched him wretched in
his cage above a pit of vipers.
511
00:42:35,286 --> 00:42:38,724
And I heard his last words.
He wanted no pity.
512
00:42:40,358 --> 00:42:42,861
He was glad to die.
513
00:42:42,894 --> 00:42:46,665
Laughing, knowing that soon,
he would sup with the gods.
514
00:42:49,167 --> 00:42:54,806
But he urged his sons, and he urged you,
his people, to avenge him.
515
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:58,209
Since his death, the Christian
plague has spread across the world,
516
00:42:58,243 --> 00:43:00,345
even infecting our Rus brothers.
517
00:43:00,378 --> 00:43:02,280
But you still claim to be Vikings.
518
00:43:02,313 --> 00:43:03,782
Then act like Vikings!
519
00:43:03,815 --> 00:43:06,451
Forget about
your comfortable existence.
520
00:43:06,484 --> 00:43:09,354
- Come with me and conquer King Alfred!
- [all shouting]
521
00:43:09,387 --> 00:43:12,123
Come with me and conquer England,
and all of its riches!
522
00:43:13,124 --> 00:43:14,626
Reclaim your birthright!
523
00:43:14,660 --> 00:43:17,929
Be like the gods
and reach for Valhalla!
524
00:43:17,963 --> 00:43:19,330
[all] Valhalla!
525
00:43:19,364 --> 00:43:21,132
Valhalla!
526
00:43:23,935 --> 00:43:27,172
[all] Hail Ivar!
All hail Ivar!
527
00:43:27,205 --> 00:43:29,875
Hail Ivar! Hail Ivar!
528
00:43:29,908 --> 00:43:34,345
[all chanting]
Hail Ivar! Hail Ivar!
529
00:43:44,990 --> 00:43:46,992
[music playing]
