1
00:01:06,090 --> 00:01:08,070
**

2
00:01:26,212 --> 00:01:29,132
Send a rider tonight
and he'll be back by morning.

3
00:01:29,215 --> 00:01:32,343
Why don't they let
us dry ourselves and get warm?

4
00:01:33,178 --> 00:01:35,430
If I stay like this, I will rust.

5
00:01:35,513 --> 00:01:37,807
What kind of fellow is this Jarl Borg?

6
00:01:38,850 --> 00:01:41,936
This is no way to treat
guests, whoever they are.

7
00:01:42,020 --> 00:01:44,314
Especially if they've been
traveling for days on end.

8
00:02:03,374 --> 00:02:05,919
Are you the emissaries from King Horik?

9
00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:09,672
Well, I can tell you at once,
you're wasting your time.

10
00:02:09,756 --> 00:02:13,384
It's my land, and I want it returned to me.

11
00:02:13,468 --> 00:02:14,886
That's all I have to say.

12
00:02:15,511 --> 00:02:17,263
He wants to make peace with you

13
00:02:17,347 --> 00:02:21,142
and come to some kind of agreement.

14
00:02:21,226 --> 00:02:23,895
Then tell him if he leaves
my land, we can have peace.

15
00:02:25,521 --> 00:02:27,232
But not before.

16
00:02:30,902 --> 00:02:34,322
How can you make peace, Jarl Borg,

17
00:02:34,405 --> 00:02:36,574
if you insist on humiliating him?

18
00:02:36,699 --> 00:02:38,701
If I invade and defeat him,

19
00:02:38,785 --> 00:02:41,579
will he not be even more humiliated?

20
00:02:41,663 --> 00:02:42,956
Not if he fights well.

21
00:02:44,666 --> 00:02:45,792
In any case,

22
00:02:46,709 --> 00:02:50,046
I am sure that he would relish a fight.

23
00:03:04,102 --> 00:03:05,228
What's your name?

24
00:03:07,272 --> 00:03:08,773
Ragnar Lothbrok.

25
00:03:10,108 --> 00:03:12,068
You are Ragnar Lothbrok,

26
00:03:13,027 --> 00:03:14,654
the one who sailed west?

27
00:03:16,447 --> 00:03:18,366
I am surprised that you've heard about that.

28
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,912
How are you surprised?

29
00:03:23,955 --> 00:03:25,873
Everyone has heard of your exploits.

30
00:03:33,381 --> 00:03:36,843
Why have we not offered our
guests dry clothes and food?

31
00:03:37,302 --> 00:03:39,137
Treat these folk well.

32
00:03:39,220 --> 00:03:42,807
Give them ale, let them dry out, feed them.

33
00:03:42,974 --> 00:03:46,144
Tomorrow, you and I will
talk again, Ragnar Lothbrok.

34
00:04:11,544 --> 00:04:13,504
You haven't eaten in three days.

35
00:04:28,269 --> 00:04:29,771
You see?

36
00:04:33,191 --> 00:04:34,817
I have fears.

37
00:04:39,030 --> 00:04:40,782
Go to the Seer,

38
00:04:40,865 --> 00:04:43,368
ask if your fears will come true.

39
00:04:43,534 --> 00:04:45,828
It's sometimes better
not to know one's fate.

40
00:04:48,539 --> 00:04:50,541
I take it, from what you said yesterday,

41
00:04:50,625 --> 00:04:52,293
that King Horik is prepared to compromise

42
00:04:52,377 --> 00:04:55,755
and offer some deal
regarding those lands of mine,

43
00:04:55,838 --> 00:04:57,298
which he still occupies?

44
00:04:57,382 --> 00:05:01,135
He is prepared to pay you
to renounce your illegal claims

45
00:05:01,552 --> 00:05:02,887
of his lands.

46
00:05:02,970 --> 00:05:04,931
You disappoint me now, Ragnar Lothbrok.

47
00:05:05,014 --> 00:05:06,891
I thought you'd come here
with a serious purpose.

48
00:05:07,058 --> 00:05:09,727
- If you would just name your price.
- The land is priceless.

49
00:05:11,062 --> 00:05:13,648
Which is why King Horik
wants to keep it for himself.

50
00:05:13,731 --> 00:05:17,402
Every piece of land has a
price, just like every human.

51
00:05:17,485 --> 00:05:19,153
Well, you don't understand.

52
00:05:19,237 --> 00:05:23,491
This is not a small plot of land on
which you grow turnips and onions.

53
00:05:23,574 --> 00:05:25,326
We're talking about a vast swathe of land,

54
00:05:25,410 --> 00:05:29,414
and on this land, in the earth, are minerals,
things of great value.

55
00:05:29,497 --> 00:05:32,375
Why else would I assert my claim?

56
00:05:32,458 --> 00:05:34,627
King Horik resists your claim,

57
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:37,588
but still, in good faith,

58
00:05:37,672 --> 00:05:39,674
he is willing to settle with you.

59
00:05:39,757 --> 00:05:42,176
If you will name a reasonable price.

60
00:05:44,345 --> 00:05:47,515
At the moment,
my price is King Horik's head.

61
00:05:50,435 --> 00:05:54,021
Well, then, it seems I am done.

62
00:05:54,814 --> 00:05:56,774
Hold on, please, sit down, sit down.

63
00:05:58,985 --> 00:06:00,945
Let's see if we can find another way.

64
00:06:01,863 --> 00:06:03,364
What do you have in mind?

65
00:06:03,448 --> 00:06:05,241
What if my claim was acknowledged,

66
00:06:05,324 --> 00:06:08,369
but I was willing to lease the land
back to the King during his lifetime?

67
00:06:08,953 --> 00:06:11,706
Or what if we deferred
judgment on ownership,

68
00:06:11,789 --> 00:06:13,583
but shared the mineral rights?

69
00:06:15,626 --> 00:06:17,545
What do you say?

70
00:06:17,628 --> 00:06:19,338
Can we start negotiating in this manner?

71
00:06:23,176 --> 00:06:24,969
Why not?

72
00:06:27,805 --> 00:06:30,349
I have not been given the authority to

73
00:06:30,808 --> 00:06:33,686
negotiate in this manner.

74
00:06:33,769 --> 00:06:36,814
You mean King Horik sent you here
with nothing but a demand?

75
00:06:38,149 --> 00:06:40,067
And yet he speaks of peace!

76
00:06:40,902 --> 00:06:45,156
- I don't know what is in his mind.
- Well, then, maybe you should ask him.

77
00:06:50,661 --> 00:06:51,996
Let me make a suggestion.

78
00:06:52,622 --> 00:06:54,081
Why don't you send one of your men back

79
00:06:54,165 --> 00:06:57,043
so he can put to King Horik
my ideas for a remedy?

80
00:06:57,335 --> 00:06:58,836
If you think that will work.

81
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,631
Good. Your messenger
will take several days.

82
00:07:01,714 --> 00:07:06,135
So, in the meantime, why don't you and
your men go and visit our famous ash tree?

83
00:07:06,219 --> 00:07:09,639
It is famous not only for its size, but
because it never loses its leaves,

84
00:07:09,722 --> 00:07:10,932
summer or winter.

85
00:07:11,974 --> 00:07:14,435
Some people even say it's Yggdrasil,

86
00:07:14,519 --> 00:07:16,604
the tree that holds up the sky.

87
00:07:16,687 --> 00:07:18,940
And I will provide you an escort.

88
00:07:19,023 --> 00:07:21,025
I only have one very small request.

89
00:07:21,108 --> 00:07:25,029
I would like one of your men to stay
behind here as a kind of security.

90
00:07:25,196 --> 00:07:26,822
You understand, I hope?

91
00:07:33,037 --> 00:07:35,122
My brother Rollo will stay behind.

92
00:07:43,130 --> 00:07:44,549
Floki!

93
00:07:56,978 --> 00:07:58,604
So how long must we travel?

94
00:07:59,063 --> 00:08:01,649
It can take us three days to reach the tree.

95
00:08:04,652 --> 00:08:06,404
It looks like rain.

96
00:08:10,575 --> 00:08:12,034
Come.

97
00:08:23,588 --> 00:08:24,880
Why have you come?

98
00:08:24,964 --> 00:08:27,717
I am frightened for my husband.

99
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,053
Do you think your husband
is in some kind of danger?

100
00:08:32,263 --> 00:08:35,725
I've had strange and disturbing dreams.

101
00:08:36,350 --> 00:08:38,477
What happens in your dreams?

102
00:08:38,561 --> 00:08:41,397
Dark shapes come to me at night.

103
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,025
Monstrous forms.

104
00:08:44,942 --> 00:08:46,527
When I wake,

105
00:08:46,611 --> 00:08:48,696
they skulk in the shadows, shapeless,

106
00:08:48,779 --> 00:08:52,908
but no sooner am I asleep
than they creep forward again.

107
00:08:52,992 --> 00:08:54,035
Ah, yes.

108
00:08:55,620 --> 00:08:58,456
The shadows come from Hel's hall.

109
00:08:59,081 --> 00:09:01,792
No one can ensnare them, not even the gods.

110
00:09:02,501 --> 00:09:04,462
What is it that they want?

111
00:09:06,297 --> 00:09:07,757
To take something from you.

112
00:09:08,674 --> 00:09:09,884
My life?

113
00:09:09,967 --> 00:09:13,763
No, something far more
important to you than that.

114
00:09:14,347 --> 00:09:15,931
My husband's life?

115
00:09:19,894 --> 00:09:21,270
Tell me.

116
00:09:21,354 --> 00:09:23,856
Why must you all force me up

117
00:09:23,939 --> 00:09:26,108
and unearth me to sorrows?

118
00:09:28,319 --> 00:09:32,698
Your husband is in danger,
but not for his life.

119
00:09:33,407 --> 00:09:36,160
He is in danger from the magical world.

120
00:09:37,995 --> 00:09:39,330
How?

121
00:09:43,125 --> 00:09:44,418
Answer me.

122
00:09:44,502 --> 00:09:47,463
I was unwilling to speak
and I will say no more now!

123
00:10:05,940 --> 00:10:07,942
So, Rollo,

124
00:10:08,025 --> 00:10:09,819
how do you get on with your brother?

125
00:10:11,904 --> 00:10:13,489
We get along fine.

126
00:10:14,031 --> 00:10:15,700
Why shouldn't we?

127
00:10:17,076 --> 00:10:18,285
No reason.

128
00:10:18,369 --> 00:10:20,454
But not all brothers get on so well.

129
00:10:20,538 --> 00:10:23,082
I know that from personal experience.

130
00:10:23,833 --> 00:10:25,459
What do you mean?

131
00:10:26,836 --> 00:10:28,879
I, too, had a brother.

132
00:10:28,963 --> 00:10:30,673
I loved him.

133
00:10:31,799 --> 00:10:34,760
We were very close,
as befits blood brothers.

134
00:10:34,844 --> 00:10:36,554
We fought together in the shield-wall.

135
00:10:36,637 --> 00:10:38,347
We shared the same women.

136
00:10:40,433 --> 00:10:44,562
When my father was killed, there was
fierce competition to replace him as Jarl.

137
00:10:44,645 --> 00:10:48,691
And although I was his eldest son, I
was not sure I was going to succeed.

138
00:10:49,734 --> 00:10:51,610
However, I was elected at the thing.

139
00:10:51,694 --> 00:10:53,863
We had a feast to celebrate.

140
00:10:53,946 --> 00:10:55,573
My wife was there.

141
00:10:56,490 --> 00:10:58,367
My young, beautiful wife.

142
00:10:59,201 --> 00:11:00,661
We'd just gotten married.

143
00:11:02,079 --> 00:11:04,874
And all the others who had
stood for election against me.

144
00:11:07,752 --> 00:11:09,837
My brother poisoned them

145
00:11:11,130 --> 00:11:12,381
all.

146
00:11:13,716 --> 00:11:15,676
I only survived because

147
00:11:17,428 --> 00:11:19,513
my wife took the cup
I was about to drink from

148
00:11:19,597 --> 00:11:21,932
and drained it herself in celebration.

149
00:11:24,059 --> 00:11:26,103
I will never forget her screams.

150
00:11:27,605 --> 00:11:31,609
It's my wife's screams that will
haunt me for the rest of my life.

151
00:11:35,321 --> 00:11:39,492
My brother denied responsibility,
but his guilt was too obvious.

152
00:11:39,575 --> 00:11:42,578
So I blinded him with my own hands,

153
00:11:42,661 --> 00:11:45,456
and then I burned him alive.

154
00:11:47,374 --> 00:11:49,710
Although he laughed while he was burning.

155
00:11:55,132 --> 00:11:58,219
That's what I know about
the love between brothers.

156
00:12:02,223 --> 00:12:05,392
Ragnar would never do such a thing.

157
00:12:06,143 --> 00:12:07,478
Of course not.

158
00:12:08,479 --> 00:12:10,648
No, your brother is different.

159
00:12:11,607 --> 00:12:13,984
Your brother's a great man,

160
00:12:14,985 --> 00:12:17,112
a great warrior.

161
00:12:18,155 --> 00:12:19,782
As am I.

162
00:12:22,076 --> 00:12:23,577
I'm sure you are.

163
00:12:25,788 --> 00:12:27,998
And yet I've never heard of you.

164
00:12:40,386 --> 00:12:42,596
Our camp is set up over here.

165
00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:45,266
There's some excellent fishing upstream,
under the waterfall.

166
00:12:45,349 --> 00:12:49,103
- I will go.
- And I also,

167
00:12:49,186 --> 00:12:51,188
for everybody knows...

168
00:12:51,313 --> 00:12:53,148
Three eyes are better than one.

169
00:13:35,649 --> 00:13:37,484
You! Look away!

170
00:13:38,152 --> 00:13:39,570
- Who are you?
- Look away at once!

171
00:13:41,780 --> 00:13:43,407
What are we supposed to be looking at?

172
00:13:43,991 --> 00:13:46,410
I'm blind!
See? I can't see anything!

173
00:13:51,874 --> 00:13:53,125
Arne!

174
00:13:53,208 --> 00:13:55,002
What? You're going to try to kill us

175
00:13:55,085 --> 00:13:57,713
for protecting the
reputation of our mistress?

176
00:13:57,796 --> 00:13:59,006
Shame on you!

177
00:13:59,089 --> 00:14:01,550
We came upon your mistress by chance.

178
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,386
We are strangers here,

179
00:14:04,470 --> 00:14:07,222
traveling to the great ash
tree, guests of Jarl Borg.

180
00:14:07,306 --> 00:14:10,309
Jarl Borg?
Then why didn't you say so at once?

181
00:14:10,392 --> 00:14:13,187
We will just return to our horses then.

182
00:14:18,442 --> 00:14:19,944
You spied on me.

183
00:14:24,907 --> 00:14:26,533
We meant no harm.

184
00:14:26,617 --> 00:14:28,953
They say they are guests of Jarl Borg.

185
00:14:31,121 --> 00:14:32,706
Are you alone?

186
00:14:32,790 --> 00:14:35,209
We are traveling with Earl Ragnar Lothbrok.

187
00:14:37,962 --> 00:14:41,507
Then I think Earl Ragnar owes
me an apology on your behalf.

188
00:14:42,549 --> 00:14:43,717
Don't you?

189
00:14:48,389 --> 00:14:50,224
I never knew that

190
00:14:50,891 --> 00:14:53,852
fresh fish was also packed in salt.

191
00:14:55,813 --> 00:14:57,940
Listen, it's not our fault.

192
00:14:58,023 --> 00:15:00,776
We just saw her bathing.
What were we supposed to do?

193
00:15:01,986 --> 00:15:04,738
- Fish.
- You did not see her, Ragnar.

194
00:15:05,781 --> 00:15:07,700
So you get your cheek slashed,

195
00:15:07,825 --> 00:15:10,577
and now I'm supposed to apologize

196
00:15:10,661 --> 00:15:13,497
for you two staring at a naked body?

197
00:15:14,498 --> 00:15:15,833
That's what she said.

198
00:15:16,709 --> 00:15:20,004
Who is she, anyway, to put
such a high price on her nakedness?

199
00:15:20,087 --> 00:15:21,463
We didn't ask.

200
00:15:26,677 --> 00:15:30,014
- I'm intrigued.
- What's so intriguing?

201
00:15:30,806 --> 00:15:33,225
Sometimes the gods put things
like this in front of us

202
00:15:33,308 --> 00:15:34,435
as some kind of test.

203
00:15:35,477 --> 00:15:37,521
She has set me a challenge

204
00:15:37,688 --> 00:15:39,189
and I am up to task.

205
00:15:39,314 --> 00:15:42,443
See, I'm less interested in
what you say is her beauty,

206
00:15:42,526 --> 00:15:44,194
than what I suspect is her wit.

207
00:15:44,778 --> 00:15:46,113
So tell her,

208
00:15:46,196 --> 00:15:47,740
I invite her here to join us.

209
00:15:49,074 --> 00:15:52,286
Neither dressed nor undressed.

210
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,544
- What else?
- Neither hungry nor full,

211
00:16:01,545 --> 00:16:05,257
neither in company nor alone.

212
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,137
Can you remember all of that, one eye?

213
00:16:14,224 --> 00:16:16,143
What did the Seer tell you?

214
00:16:17,019 --> 00:16:20,064
He said that it's true,
that Ragnar is in danger.

215
00:16:22,024 --> 00:16:26,153
- From whom?
- I don't know.

216
00:16:33,869 --> 00:16:35,120
Who do you think?

217
00:16:42,252 --> 00:16:44,421
I think he is in danger from himself.

218
00:16:52,262 --> 00:16:55,599
- Have you ever been to Yggdrasil before?
- No.

219
00:17:06,485 --> 00:17:08,362
So, Earl Ragnar,

220
00:17:08,445 --> 00:17:10,531
I come to you as you desired.

221
00:17:10,614 --> 00:17:12,991
Neither dressed nor undressed,

222
00:17:13,075 --> 00:17:15,285
neither hungry nor full,

223
00:17:15,369 --> 00:17:17,788
neither alone nor yet in company.

224
00:17:19,081 --> 00:17:21,041
Do I pass your test?

225
00:17:21,125 --> 00:17:24,628
- I owe you an apology.
- I accept.

226
00:17:31,051 --> 00:17:35,139
Could I offer you some horrible salted fish?

227
00:17:36,807 --> 00:17:38,225
I'm very tempted.

228
00:17:38,934 --> 00:17:41,103
You can get tired of fresh fish.

229
00:17:44,731 --> 00:17:46,191
Come.

230
00:17:58,328 --> 00:17:59,830
Sit, please.

231
00:18:02,875 --> 00:18:04,209
May I ask your name?

232
00:18:05,169 --> 00:18:06,628
My name is Aslaug.

233
00:18:07,921 --> 00:18:10,424
We're on our way to see the great ash tree.

234
00:18:11,758 --> 00:18:12,843
Of course.

235
00:18:14,178 --> 00:18:15,971
You are welcome to join us.

236
00:18:20,601 --> 00:18:23,270
Will you come along, Aslaug?

237
00:18:37,576 --> 00:18:39,870
- Siggy, what is it?
- No, it's nothing.

238
00:18:44,041 --> 00:18:47,085
I visited my cousin a few days ago.

239
00:18:47,169 --> 00:18:49,087
She had just buried her young son.

240
00:18:50,172 --> 00:18:51,632
Why did he die?

241
00:18:54,593 --> 00:18:58,597
One day he was fine, and the
next, he caught a fever that

242
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,059
made him sweat and cry out in
the night, and the next day,

243
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,062
she put him in the ground.

244
00:20:06,373 --> 00:20:08,500
But if this is Yggdrasil,

245
00:20:08,583 --> 00:20:10,168
then it must be the same tree

246
00:20:10,252 --> 00:20:13,297
that Lord Odin once hanged himself from.

247
00:20:13,839 --> 00:20:14,923
Why not?

248
00:20:16,008 --> 00:20:17,801
All things are possible.

249
00:20:31,314 --> 00:20:37,070
"I hung from a windy
tree for nine long nights,

250
00:20:37,195 --> 00:20:40,449
wounded by a spear, dedicated to Odin,

251
00:20:41,283 --> 00:20:43,994
from that tree of which no man knows

252
00:20:44,494 --> 00:20:46,538
from where its roots run."

253
00:21:00,177 --> 00:21:01,803
No, please.

254
00:21:03,180 --> 00:21:06,308
Look after my daughter first.

255
00:21:07,184 --> 00:21:08,810
It's all right.

256
00:21:34,294 --> 00:21:36,713
- What's wrong, boy?
- What do you think?

257
00:21:37,005 --> 00:21:39,299
My father is making a fool of himself.

258
00:21:39,841 --> 00:21:41,968
He's enjoying himself in the
company of a beautiful woman.

259
00:21:42,052 --> 00:21:43,345
What's foolish about that?

260
00:21:44,179 --> 00:21:45,889
Some day you'll do the same thing.

261
00:21:45,972 --> 00:21:48,725
If Lagertha were here,
she'd cut his balls off.

262
00:21:48,809 --> 00:21:51,061
Then it's a good thing she's not.

263
00:21:52,395 --> 00:21:53,980
Listen to me, my friend.

264
00:21:54,064 --> 00:21:56,608
Your father and mother are a famous couple.

265
00:21:56,691 --> 00:21:59,694
They love each other.
Everybody knows that.

266
00:21:59,778 --> 00:22:02,280
So don't begrudge your old man
a little harmless fun, huh?

267
00:22:30,767 --> 00:22:32,686
I trust all is to your satisfaction.

268
00:22:34,146 --> 00:22:36,898
- You feed me very well.
- You're an important guest.

269
00:22:36,982 --> 00:22:41,236
We would like to keep you entertained
until your brother returns.

270
00:22:43,780 --> 00:22:45,782
You always talk about my brother.

271
00:22:45,866 --> 00:22:47,826
What choice do I have?

272
00:22:47,909 --> 00:22:49,619
He is your earl.

273
00:22:55,125 --> 00:22:56,918
Which one would you like tonight?

274
00:22:58,962 --> 00:23:00,672
Why don't you take both of them?

275
00:23:02,257 --> 00:23:04,176
I don't need to be bribed with women.

276
00:23:09,347 --> 00:23:11,057
What is it you want, Rollo?

277
00:23:13,602 --> 00:23:15,604
What is it you really want?

278
00:23:20,678 --> 00:23:23,495
**

279
00:23:23,653 --> 00:23:26,531
<i>Fenrir, the giant wolf,</i>

280
00:23:26,865 --> 00:23:29,951
could not be constrained
by any means known to man,

281
00:23:31,161 --> 00:23:33,455
so the dwarves forged a chain,

282
00:23:34,664 --> 00:23:36,917
but not from metal.

283
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,629
Nothing made by man could constrain Fenrir,

284
00:23:40,712 --> 00:23:43,340
so they forged it
from the things we cannot see

285
00:23:44,341 --> 00:23:46,051
and the things we cannot hear.

286
00:23:47,010 --> 00:23:49,304
Like the breath of a fish,

287
00:23:49,387 --> 00:23:51,806
the sound a moving cat makes.

288
00:23:52,349 --> 00:23:57,312
- The roots of a mountain.
- You know?

289
00:23:59,022 --> 00:24:02,359
Of course I know!
These things interest me!

290
00:24:03,401 --> 00:24:05,737
Like the terrible tricks of the god Loki.

291
00:24:06,404 --> 00:24:09,908
How he turns into a flea
to divest the goddess Freyja

292
00:24:10,617 --> 00:24:12,035
of her precious necklace.

293
00:24:12,869 --> 00:24:15,247
He's only a distant ancestor.

294
00:24:21,503 --> 00:24:23,546
I came to ask about Jarl Borg.

295
00:24:25,215 --> 00:24:26,466
He won't sell.

296
00:24:27,092 --> 00:24:32,138
- He wants to make a deal.
- I'm not interested in deals.

297
00:24:34,391 --> 00:24:36,476
That would make it hard for Ragnar.

298
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:39,646
Ragnar will come to the right conclusion

299
00:24:39,896 --> 00:24:41,273
and make the right decision.

300
00:24:42,565 --> 00:24:46,778
In any case, there is someone else in
Götland who looks after my affairs.

301
00:24:47,279 --> 00:24:49,739
Don't you care if the negotiations fail?

302
00:24:53,326 --> 00:24:54,494
Look!

303
00:25:31,698 --> 00:25:33,366
I am going to die.

304
00:25:34,951 --> 00:25:37,996
No, you are not going to die.

305
00:25:39,414 --> 00:25:42,042
The Seer might think that
he is the only one in Kattegat

306
00:25:42,125 --> 00:25:44,294
with the gift of prophecy,

307
00:25:45,462 --> 00:25:47,088
but he's wrong,

308
00:25:47,172 --> 00:25:49,549
and I know you are not going to die.

309
00:25:55,388 --> 00:25:59,017
I should tell you the truth
about who I really am.

310
00:26:01,519 --> 00:26:03,480
I am Princess Aslaug.

311
00:26:03,563 --> 00:26:06,524
My mother was the shield-maiden Brunhilde.

312
00:26:09,819 --> 00:26:13,907
Everyone knows the renown of your mother.

313
00:26:15,325 --> 00:26:16,826
But I am not her.

314
00:26:17,660 --> 00:26:19,204
I am myself.

315
00:26:20,372 --> 00:26:22,499
Both my parents are dead now,

316
00:26:22,957 --> 00:26:25,001
and I did not know them anyway.

317
00:26:25,335 --> 00:26:30,673
- Why did you come along with me?
- Because I had no choice.

318
00:26:44,062 --> 00:26:48,525
- Why did you do that?
- Because I had no choice.

319
00:27:45,206 --> 00:27:46,708
I hate you.

320
00:27:47,876 --> 00:27:49,752
It's disgusting.

321
00:27:51,504 --> 00:27:53,006
I could not help myself.

322
00:27:53,089 --> 00:27:56,176
Shall I tell that to Lagertha, your wife?

323
00:27:56,259 --> 00:27:57,802
If you want to.

324
00:27:59,596 --> 00:28:02,348
You cannot love her that much after all,

325
00:28:02,432 --> 00:28:05,852
no matter what you say,
no matter what people think.

326
00:28:05,935 --> 00:28:08,146
I don't care what people think.

327
00:28:09,022 --> 00:28:10,773
Of course I love your mother.

328
00:28:18,698 --> 00:28:21,451
Swear to me that it will not happen again.

329
00:28:28,499 --> 00:28:31,502
I swear to you it won't happen again.

330
00:28:41,012 --> 00:28:42,680
I love you.

331
00:28:44,641 --> 00:28:45,975
Now, go play.

332
00:29:36,484 --> 00:29:39,487
No!
No!

333
00:29:41,197 --> 00:29:43,866
No!

334
00:29:55,378 --> 00:29:56,879
Athelstan?

335
00:30:00,425 --> 00:30:03,344
He is so weak he cannot eat.

336
00:30:04,804 --> 00:30:09,809
Pray to the gods, please, for him.

337
00:31:15,917 --> 00:31:17,460
Wait, no.

338
00:31:20,380 --> 00:31:21,964
I said no.

339
00:31:33,768 --> 00:31:35,311
No.

340
00:32:35,621 --> 00:32:36,706
Lord of lords,

341
00:32:37,540 --> 00:32:39,917
we make this offering to you,

342
00:32:40,001 --> 00:32:42,462
hoping you will find it pleasing.

343
00:33:24,170 --> 00:33:26,047
Can you try a little more?

344
00:33:39,477 --> 00:33:41,145
Gyda.

345
00:34:17,473 --> 00:34:19,058
Enjoy!

346
00:34:19,809 --> 00:34:21,143
What's wrong with you?

347
00:34:41,831 --> 00:34:43,499
I'm carrying your child.

348
00:34:49,797 --> 00:34:52,466
Did the Seer not promise you more sons?

349
00:35:57,448 --> 00:36:00,034
We welcome our guests to this feast.

350
00:36:00,117 --> 00:36:02,620
Now tell us what you learned
from King Horik.

351
00:36:03,662 --> 00:36:06,457
What compromises is he willing to make?

352
00:36:07,917 --> 00:36:09,752
Can I not eat first?

353
00:36:20,221 --> 00:36:21,806
Well, he said...

354
00:36:25,017 --> 00:36:26,644
What did he say?

355
00:36:33,943 --> 00:36:36,654
What did he say?

356
00:36:39,907 --> 00:36:41,867
He will make no compromises,

357
00:36:42,827 --> 00:36:44,120
no deals.

358
00:36:44,703 --> 00:36:47,748
He say you must name
your price for the land.

359
00:36:48,833 --> 00:36:50,042
Or?

360
00:36:51,961 --> 00:36:53,963
He didn't say "or."

361
00:36:58,926 --> 00:37:01,220
It seems your mission
has been entirely wasted,

362
00:37:01,303 --> 00:37:02,972
Ragnar Lothbrok.

363
00:37:03,973 --> 00:37:06,475
You and your men must leave
here in the morning.

364
00:37:08,936 --> 00:37:11,647
Unless you want to repudiate King Horik,

365
00:37:12,982 --> 00:37:14,733
renounce your allegiance to him?

366
00:37:24,410 --> 00:37:25,744
I see.

367
00:37:28,205 --> 00:37:29,498
Very well.

368
00:37:36,839 --> 00:37:38,174
Good.

369
00:37:40,176 --> 00:37:41,469
War.

370
00:39:09,098 --> 00:39:10,849
Odin.

371
00:39:59,648 --> 00:40:01,859
So, my friend, the die is cast.

372
00:40:01,942 --> 00:40:03,485
King Horik has left me no choice.

373
00:40:03,569 --> 00:40:06,822
I must attack him and claim
what is rightfully mine.

374
00:40:09,116 --> 00:40:12,494
Your brother will clearly not support me,
but the question is,

375
00:40:12,578 --> 00:40:14,246
will you?

376
00:41:20,479 --> 00:41:22,856
Will you fight alongside me?

377
00:41:24,274 --> 00:41:27,152
Together, you and I can
carve out the new kingdom.

378
00:41:37,538 --> 00:41:39,998
<i>Isn't that what you really want?</i>

379
00:41:41,417 --> 00:41:44,545
The death of your brother and
the start of your own fame?

380
00:42:09,903 --> 00:42:11,697
Well, what do you say?

381
00:43:28,774 --> 00:43:30,359
I say yes.

382
00:43:35,072 --> 00:43:37,032
I will fight with you.

383
00:43:40,077 --> 00:43:42,579
I will fight with you against my brother.
