Previously on "Runes".

We almost have all the pieces

of your dragon form, Father.

Dame Neel, it would seem that nobody

has ever heard of this Hela and I would not be surprised

to learn Ulrich was in league with her.

Loki in Ulrich's body?

Looks like I've been discovered.

(group grunting)

(Loki yelling)
(lively tense music)

You promised me you wouldn't confront him.

We noticed while he was controlling Ulrich,

Loki wasn't as powerful as he wanted to be.

Then there is but one plan left for us to attempt.

We must destroy part of the dragon skeleton

before it can be reassembled.

I can see my father's boat.
Huh?

He's come back.

(bird squawking)
(pensive dramatic music)

(pensive dramatic music continues)

(man grunting)

All together, now pull!

(all grunting)

(water sloshing)
(wood banging)

(dramatic wistful music)

Father!

Huh?

Alice.

(victorious music)
(both chuckling)

Alice, my girl.

I just knew you'd come back.

I have to tell my Dad.

He's not going to believe this.

Yes, my lady.

That is all we have been able to confirm for now.

You're telling me this peasant boy Hugo

is William of Normandy?

Yes, of course.

The winner of the archery competition.

If that's true, his allies will help him escape

before we can close the net.

(wood creaking)

Dame Neel, Dagmar's returned from his voyage.

His long ship just docked.
At last.

Tell him he's to appear tomorrow at dawn.

I want a complete report on his expedition.

Yes, my lady.

(wood rattling)

Did you bring back treasures, some gold?

Was it dangerous?

Was there fighting?

Oh, you have battle wounds?

Well, you know, it has been a long time

since I checked that I had all my fingers.

Huh?

Lemme see.

(Dagmar laughing)

Bring those two trunks and the chest

directly to the castle.

Who's that?
Huh?

He one of your friends?

Hugo, what are you waiting for?

I want you to meet my Dad.

Huh?

Father, this is Hugo.

Hugo, this is my Dad, Dagmar.

Hugo is a distant cousin.

I see.
He lives with us

on the farm now.

Uh, what about your parents?

Huh?
Uh.

Well they're, um, I lost my parents

in a terrible fire and, I'm really sorry,

I have to go see Algythe, Goodbye.

Mm?
Huh?

(Hugo grunting)

Hmm, not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Let's head to the farm.

Thanks, lads.
Halt, Dagmar.

Huh?

You're to appear before Dame Neel tomorrow

at dawn to report on your expedition.

Be ready!
Tomorrow.

I'll be there.

(tranquil cheerful music)

(both moaning)

Oh, it's good that you're home.

The fence needs mending.

The roof needs re-thatching.

We need a new chicken coop and-

But I, uh, I figured, uh.

(Cecile laughing)

I'm just joking!

What did you think, that I can't run a farm?

(Dagmar chuckling)

(both chuckling)

Alice, is that really our daddy?

It is, Hilda, don't be scared.

(both exhaling)

Ho ho, who's this?

I know this little girl.

You know, when I left here,

you were about this tall.

Huh?

But it's very good you got so big.

Because now, you'll be able to play with this.

(Hilda gasping)

Wow, it's the most beautiful-est thing ever!

(all chuckling)

(family laughing)

(wood creaking)

I wanna go up!

(Dagmar and Hilda laughing)

(Cecile and Alice chuckling)

So then, how was the expedition?

Will Dame Neel be satisfied?

I'm not sure, but everything will be fine.

Mm?

(Hugo gasping)
(door shutting)

(wood creaking)

(Alice gasping)
(Hugo sighing)

(door shutting)

You all right?

(Hugo sighing)

You're thinking of your parents, aren't you?

I'm sure your mother is thinking about you too.

That's what I told myself when I missed my Dad a lot.

Hmm.

But you know what really helped me?

When you came to the the farm.

We're all one big family now.

(Hugo sighing)

That's very kind.

Thanks, Alice.
It's nothing, cousin.

You're right, you know?

We are all one big family now,

and I'll do my best to bring honor to it.

(door opening)

Mom says we we're having a big feast tonight

because of Papa!

You wanna help?

(both chuckling)

(rooster crowing)
(mellow pleasant music)

(Hilda snoring)

(both slurping)

It's market day in Mowve today.

I'll bring Hilda and take some eggs to sell.

You're not taking Alice?
Oh, uh, I have something

important to do with Hugo this morning.

But I promise that we'll be home later

to hear all about your adventures.

See you later!

Where are they going so early?

(horse neighing)

Well, time for me to get going too.

Uh, wait, if they ask you about Hugo at the castle,

just tell them he's Alice's cousin.

All right, but I can't imagine Dame Neel being interested

in who lives in our home.

Is there something that I should know about Hugo, Cecile?

Dagmar?
Hmm?

I'll explain when you get back.

Just trust me.
All right, whatever you say.

And good luck at the castle.

Hmm.

(wood creaking)

(dramatic music)

All set, let's go.

(Dagmar sighing)

Hmm?

(children panting)

(wood rattling)

(foreboding music)

(dog whimpering)

(Fenrir growling)

He knows what he's doing, but we need to find the skull.

(startling music)
(Loki grunting)

Come on.

(Loki grunting)
(dog whimpering)

(Loki grunting continues)

(alarming music)

(woman gasping)

Father?
This weak human

is an insult to my power!

Father, are you all right? (yelps)

Silence!

This is all your fault.

If I had a body worthy of a god,

I would've found my dragon skull long ago!

Father, it won't be much longer, I promise.

Fenrir has his wolf pack searching everywhere.

And I've also sent my specters.

They've almost reached the Well of Erd, and-

(Fenrir growling)

Don't worry, brother, they won't go anywhere near Brunhilde.

Wha, Brunhilde is still among us?

Why didn't you say so sooner?

But.

Father?
Silence!

(woman gasping)
(Fenrir growling)

You're hopeless.

I have to do everything myself.

Where are you going?
To visit an old acquaintance

to find out how to get what I need.

(Fenrir grumbling)

(air whooshing)
No!

(Fenrir whimpering)

Fenrir.

(Fenrir whimpering)

Thanks to our misadventure, we now know

that Loki has taken possession of Ulrich.

But that his human body limits his powers.

Hmm, yeah, but still super dangerous

with those magic claws.

Right, and my arrows are useless against him.

Then you must not confront him directly.

Now, we have many preparations still to make.

And remember, you must not injure Ulrich in the fight.

He is innocent.

Alice?
Huh?

Have we lost you?
Uh, I'm listening.

I was just thinking about my Father.

Dagmar returned yesterday.

Well, that's wonderful news.

But Alice, I'll remind you, the hour is dire.

We must all focus.
Yes, I'm sorry, Algythe.

(Algythe chuckling)

Good, now to the bones the three of you saw.

Like I told you yesterday,

that's extremely vital information.

It tells us what Loki is planning to do.

He wants to regain his dragon form

using a resurrection ritual.

That means if what you saw was accurate,

he's still missing the skull of the dragon skeleton.

Correct?
Mm-hm.

I'm not entirely familiar with this type of spell,

but without the skull, I don't believe

they will be able to complete the ritual.

However, I must study this further.

Can we help with that?
Mm, yes!

As a matter of fact, I have a mission for each of you

to complete today.

Listen carefully.

(minimal foreboding music)
(fire crackling)

Well then, the news you bring me

from the kingdom of Canut the Great

does not fill me with confidence.

Is there anything else?
Yes.

Bring the chests.

Hmm, these chests seem rather light.

You never know, Mother.

One of these could be hiding William the Pretender.

Oh.

(wood banging)
(wood creaking)

Hmm, that's all?

Hmm, you, fetch the other chest.

(metal jangling)

Oh, well, that barely covers the cost of what I paid

to have your long ship built!

Dagmar, your expedition was a failure.

I hope you weren't expecting a bonus.

(Dagmar grumbles)

These spoils are not nearly enough.

So your long ship will also be seized.

Dame Neel, without my ship, I can't bring you back

anything at all.

We'll do better on the next voyage.

I have made up my mind.

Give me another chance.
Hmm.

There may be a way you can help us.

You may keep your ship

if you deliver William of Normandy to me.

The fugitive is hiding somewhere in this region.

William, the son of Robert the Magnificent?

The late Robert the Magnificent, you mean.

If memory serves, this William

should be my daughter's age, around 10 or 12 years old.

That is correct.

Do we understand each other?

Your long ship for William.

And as soon as possible.

Do this, and you can make your failure a success in my eyes.

You may go now.

Very well.

My lady.

(wood creaking)
(Dagmar groaning)

(door shutting)
(stirring minimal music)

(Turstin humming)

I love it when Algythe gives me these missions.

Carving new arrows for your bow?

I am all of a quiver.

(Hugo laughing)

That's funny, Turstin.
Huh, what, what's funny?

Quivers, bows, it's a really good joke.

(Turstin scoffing)

How's your rune mission going?

Oh, this one's not easy.

It's the first time Algythe's asked me

to create a protection spell like this.

I don't know where to start.

Lil' Golès, Wace, and I are going to Algythe's.

We're gonna help her research the resurrection ritual

some more.
I'm jealous.

Well, I'd rather be with my Father.

Hmm.

(Dagmar groaning)

It's not your fault, Dagmar.

Dame Neel has been on edge ever since the death

of Robert the Magnificent.
Say that again.

But William, the heir, is still nowhere to be found.

But considering their plans, we should stay united.

Huh, Dagmar!
Oh, York!

How are you, my old friend?

Come in, we got a lotta catching up to do.

(foreboding music)

Ugh, a human.

Again.

This is becoming most tiresome.

Approach the water, friend.

(Loki chuckling)

(air rushing)

Oh, you are more than what you appear.

You're right.

Hello, Brunhilde.

Loki!

(Brunhilde gasping)

Calm yourself!

I'm here so that you can show me my deepest desire.

You may treat me as though I were merely

one of your little humans. (laughs)

Show me the location of the dragon skull!

And if I'm pleased, I'll help to free you from this place.

You must find this well awfully dull, no?

Very well.
Heh.

Approach the water.

(Loki chuckling)
(dramatic tense music)

Huh?

(crows squawking)
(Loki yelling)

(Loki scoffing)

This is all you have to show me!

You mock me!
It is this human body

you occupy, it interferes.

(Loki scoffing)

Again I'm held back by this human shell.

Wait, that boy in the vision is descended from Rolo,

isn't he?
Yes, you know him?

Well, let's just say

that he and I have a little score to settle.

Indeed, interesting.

Perhaps we can kill two birds with one stone.

How exactly?

Eliminate this boy for me

and I'll free you from these chains forever.

But if you should fail-
I will not fail!

(metal scraping)

(Brunhilde gasping)

This magic sword will make you a mighty warrior.

You know your target.

(air rushing)
(dramatic music)

(Brunhilde gasping)

What is this?

(metal reverberating)

(Brunhilde gasping)

(air rushing)

Oh.

Could it be possible that (grunts).

(wood breaking)

(Brunhilde grunting)

(Brunhilde cackling)

Human with super strength, I like it.

(Hugo groaning)

It's too complex.

If I just had an example to look at.

Well, I can help you.

I finished mine.

I'm not so sure how I even, oh wait.

I have a stone at the farm.

I think it could help us!

I used it when Algythe taught me

a simple protection spell.

You want me to get the stone for you?

Let's go get it together.

Sure thing.

I'm sorry to hear about your ship, Dagmar.

I'm low on coin myself these days.

Believe me, I know what it's like.

Yes, these are tough times.

(air whipping)

By Odin, York.

You could make a fortune with your talent.

This sword is remarkably light.

I wish.

The castle pays me next to nothing.

You'll figure things out, my friend.

You'll redeem yourself with Dame Neel

and recover your long ship.

I mean, she can't afford to lose a Viking like you

in her service.

Perhaps, hey, I caught sight of your son this morning.

He's certainly gotten big.

Lucky you, I hardly see him at all these days.

Turstin spends all his time

with your daughter and her cousin Hugo.

Who is that young man, anyway?

He a nephew on Cecile's side or yours?

Uh.
Move, move, let us through!

Oh, gracious, what happened?
A swarm of crows

attacked us.

Don't go into the forest, it's dangerous.

Another attack, we're all cursed.

What do we do?
This is an evil home.

No no, the animals are all possessed.

I should get back.

I need to speak with Cecile.

I'm back!

Anyone home, Cecile, Alice?

Hmm.

(boys panting)

I didn't think rune magic would be such hard work.

Huh?
Huh?

Ah, there you are at last.

Hugo, heir of Rolo. (cackles)

You!
Uh, uh.

Who are you, exactly?

You're certainly not one of us!

Uh.
I don't need you

making trouble for my family.

And something is telling me you're nothing but trouble.

Let's go, Hugo, we should leave.

Uh, Dagmar, we'll be on our way.

Don't wanna bother you.

It'd be best if we just wait for Cecile.

Yes, that would be best.

What do we do now?

We'll talk to Algythe, she'll know what to do.

(birds chirping)
(mildly tense music)

I know he's Alice's father, but the man's terrifying.

Don't worry, Cecile will explain everything

and then things will go back to normal.

Normal?

(boys gasping)
(Brunhilde cackling)

Me, I prefer a little chaos.

(boys yelling)
(exciting tense music)

(Hugo grunting)

Brunhilde!
Brunhilde?

The spirit from the well?
Mm-hm.

That's the one.

And it looks like she's still angry.

What do you want?

Just to settle a score with you.

(Brunhilde cackling)

I almost forgot.

Loki says hello.

Loki?

(Brunhilde grunting)

(all grunting)

(metal slapping)

She caught it, she's human somehow.

Turstin, she's not a specter!
Did you really think

you could stop me with a stone?

You dumb ox.

(both grunting)

(Brunhilde groaning)
(Turstin panting)

(foreboding music)

(air whistling)

(Brunhilde cackling)

Huh?

(Brunhilde cackling)

Huh?

She's indestructible.

Hugo, come on, let's get outta here!

Oh no.

(Brunhilde cackling)

Your time is up.

(Brunhilde grunting)

(Hugo gasping)

(Brunhilde cackling)

(Brunhilde yelling)
(metal clanging)

(both grunting)

Go on, boy, run!

Mm.

(both grunting)
(tense music)

(both grunting continues)

You meddle in things that don't concern you, human.

I meddle where I choose to.

(both grunting continues)
(tense music continues)

(Brunhilde cackling)

What are you?

(Hugo gasping)

(tense music continues)
(Hugo grunting)

(metal reverberating)

(Hugo yelling)

(Hugo grunting)

Huh?

No!

(air reverberating)

Uh.

(Hugo and Dagmar panting)

(birds squawking)
(foreboding music)

(Loki grunting)

(Loki groaning)

All of them are useless.

(birds chirping)

What were you thinking, Cecile?

Dagmar, please calm down.

By keeping Hugo here, you're threatening

our daughter's safety.
Dagmar, I'm asking you

to trust me in this.

(Hugo gasping)

I will absolutely not sacrifice

our family to a lost cause.

That boy has no business in our home.

He's nothing but trouble.

(dramatic tense music)
(Hugo whimpering)

(stirring music)
