1
00:00:35,726 --> 00:00:43,639
In the 11th century, Europe existed
of a rag rug of small states.
2
00:00:43,943 --> 00:00:48,771
Dukes had unlimited power
over the lives of their subjects.
3
00:00:48,906 --> 00:00:53,568
Duke Wilhelm of Ghent ruled
over a marshland in Normandy.
4
00:00:53,703 --> 00:01:02,991
There he sent his men of war,
quoted by Chrysagon de la Crux-
5
00:01:03,129 --> 00:01:07,791
- to consolidate the duke's power-
6
00:01:07,925 --> 00:01:14,544
- and protect the country from Frisians
conquerors who plundered and plundered.
7
00:02:59,787 --> 00:03:05,457
From the tower to the sea
the whole country is yours!
8
00:03:05,710 --> 00:03:07,334
My!
9
00:03:07,462 --> 00:03:13,381
From here to the sea and far beyond,
and we have now arrived.
10
00:03:13,676 --> 00:03:20,343
Draco, what are you complaining about?
Dear brother, what did you expect?
11
00:03:20,475 --> 00:03:26,560
Your wish is mine.
I don't expect anything myself.
12
00:03:40,536 --> 00:03:45,198
- An eerie and gloomy place.
- But mine.
13
00:03:45,333 --> 00:03:51,086
Given in fief by the duke.
No one else wanted it.
14
00:03:51,297 --> 00:03:54,084
- I want it.
- It is your...
15
00:03:54,217 --> 00:03:58,511
...and you want to
keep it, brother.
16
00:05:06,956 --> 00:05:10,539
It seems,
that heretics reside here.
17
00:05:18,968 --> 00:05:23,215
- Turn off the alarm.
- Attack from the sea!
18
00:05:36,903 --> 00:05:42,063
The Frisians plundered the city and carried
the women down to their ships.
19
00:06:04,430 --> 00:06:07,431
Pig-like peasants!
20
00:06:38,673 --> 00:06:40,297
To attack!
21
00:06:58,109 --> 00:06:59,769
Sheep!
22
00:07:11,748 --> 00:07:14,369
The Crux! You!
23
00:07:52,455 --> 00:07:56,784
You Frisian butcher!
I want you!
24
00:08:44,298 --> 00:08:47,169
You're bleeding, Chrysagon.
25
00:08:47,927 --> 00:08:53,348
I had him, Draco,
but he got away.
26
00:08:58,312 --> 00:09:04,232
- Is no one else worth a tuition?
- The Frisians have only one prince.
27
00:09:44,567 --> 00:09:49,774
They take their heathen children with them
to teach them to murder.
28
00:09:49,906 --> 00:09:55,410
- Now they have to learn a lesson.
- Wait, Bors! Let me have him.
29
00:09:55,661 --> 00:10:00,537
He must be my page,
because then I will be a gentleman.
30
00:10:03,377 --> 00:10:06,912
He wanted to stab you with this one.
31
00:10:07,048 --> 00:10:12,255
How can the ship's boy
have stolen such a knife?
32
00:10:42,250 --> 00:10:47,837
- Are you the village elder?
- My name is Odins. Marc is my son.
33
00:10:49,590 --> 00:10:54,881
- Did you take that from the friezes?
- Yes, sir. I fought.
34
00:11:06,566 --> 00:11:10,515
- Where are the Duke's men?
- They're gone, sir.
35
00:11:10,653 --> 00:11:14,271
- What? Die, you mean?
- Wake up.
36
00:11:14,407 --> 00:11:20,243
- And the governor? Dead?
- Last night he was back playing.
37
00:11:34,886 --> 00:11:39,595
We've got a warlord,
not just a governor.
38
00:11:39,724 --> 00:11:45,228
- He saved you.
- He can also hang you.
39
00:11:45,354 --> 00:11:51,060
He is a knight who has fought
for 20 years, said the priest.
40
00:11:51,235 --> 00:11:57,404
- He is our master.
- Maybe. But not our ruler.
41
00:11:57,533 --> 00:12:01,578
He rules neither
over the stone or tree.
42
00:12:38,491 --> 00:12:41,326
- My lord...
- Father.
43
00:12:41,452 --> 00:12:44,868
Sir Chrysagon de la Crux?
44
00:12:45,164 --> 00:12:49,957
I am Ugo de Bouillon,
Servant of God.
45
00:12:52,755 --> 00:12:57,334
My flock... Your submissive.
46
00:12:58,136 --> 00:13:06,012
A simple people.
They were Druids before Caesar's time.
47
00:13:06,310 --> 00:13:12,396
They follow in all innocence
the customs and customs of the fathers.
48
00:13:12,525 --> 00:13:16,902
- The devil's seats and customs.
- No, then!
49
00:13:17,363 --> 00:13:23,318
Can such a simple people
seduce a priest?
50
00:13:23,453 --> 00:13:28,791
- They are people like us.
- I think they look the same.
51
00:14:37,026 --> 00:14:42,483
The gate provides no protection.
No protection at all.
52
00:15:43,801 --> 00:15:49,009
It stinks here! You can find here,
even blindfolded.
53
00:15:49,140 --> 00:15:54,098
- It was the wolves.
- It stank here before they came.
54
00:15:54,687 --> 00:15:59,396
And my tired people
have to sleep here.
55
00:15:59,525 --> 00:16:05,030
When the governor was told to,
that he was deposed...
56
00:16:05,156 --> 00:16:10,612
...he became a little negligent.
- He was also negligent at court.
57
00:16:32,433 --> 00:16:36,513
It seems to be a bit out of order here.
58
00:16:57,834 --> 00:17:05,498
- And where is our neglected friend now?
- Maybe in heaven. But I doubt it.
59
00:17:06,050 --> 00:17:09,419
Here you can accommodate yourself, sir.
60
00:17:25,278 --> 00:17:30,236
He was always chasing someone
goose girl up in the attic.
61
00:17:32,285 --> 00:17:37,955
He was bewitched,
and the Devil took him.
62
00:17:39,041 --> 00:17:45,459
The people have ancient rituals,
in which he perhaps unwittingly participated.
63
00:17:45,965 --> 00:17:50,342
The tree and the stone?
It is worshiping the Devil.
64
00:17:50,470 --> 00:17:57,137
No, he condemned the Devil's flesh.
But he loved the woman's.
65
00:17:57,268 --> 00:18:01,515
The devil cares
to dress up.
66
00:18:01,981 --> 00:18:04,306
Priest...
67
00:18:06,235 --> 00:18:10,862
- Do you think she was a witch?
- A witch?
68
00:18:15,787 --> 00:18:18,622
With white flowers?
69
00:18:18,748 --> 00:18:22,331
- What is this?
- Her wedding wreath.
70
00:18:22,460 --> 00:18:27,418
- Was she a witch or a bride?
- A virgin bride.
71
00:18:28,007 --> 00:18:31,957
- Governor's?
- One of the villagers.
72
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,342
God's grace!
73
00:18:37,141 --> 00:18:41,602
In the middle of the flowers
is the mark of death.
74
00:18:48,069 --> 00:18:54,154
There must have been many willing people here
girls. Why did he take a virgin?
75
00:18:55,535 --> 00:18:59,449
"Keep their goodwill,"
said the duke to me.
76
00:18:59,580 --> 00:19:06,544
But the horny beast...
Good thing he's dead.
77
00:19:06,671 --> 00:19:12,791
It was not rape.
They understand... They liked him.
78
00:19:13,428 --> 00:19:16,097
- Who?
- The villagers.
79
00:19:16,222 --> 00:19:21,892
In ancient times, the bride was given
on the wedding night of...
80
00:19:22,019 --> 00:19:25,139
Bors, burn the bed!
81
00:20:09,776 --> 00:20:11,934
Devils!
82
00:20:15,448 --> 00:20:20,988
Our swamps and bogs attract them.
I have seen them myself.
83
00:20:21,120 --> 00:20:24,869
I mean other devils.
The friezes.
84
00:20:24,999 --> 00:20:31,002
Yes, my lord.
May I offer some food and drink?
85
00:20:31,130 --> 00:20:36,291
- They're coming back.
- Your country lies north of the sea.
86
00:20:36,427 --> 00:20:42,797
- Only two day trips from here.
- I know where their country is.
87
00:20:46,229 --> 00:20:50,440
They are attacking our coast
at this time of the year.
88
00:20:50,566 --> 00:20:56,901
Next time I won't let him go.
Because he didn't let my father go.
89
00:20:57,031 --> 00:20:58,775
Your father?
90
00:21:00,868 --> 00:21:06,539
- Your father fell into the hands of the Frisians.
- He lost everything.
91
00:21:06,707 --> 00:21:10,705
They demanded an unreasonable tuition.
92
00:21:10,837 --> 00:21:15,084
He came home a broken man,
and he died penniless.
93
00:21:15,216 --> 00:21:20,127
- Terrible to lose one's country.
- We lost everything.
94
00:21:20,263 --> 00:21:23,347
It's been a long time.
95
00:21:24,642 --> 00:21:30,515
A human age. What did you say?
Now we have to gnaw legs...
96
00:21:30,648 --> 00:21:34,977
...and tomorrow we go hunting.
- Thank you. In our forest...
97
00:21:35,111 --> 00:21:38,480
...there are deer, birds and wild boar.
98
00:22:19,363 --> 00:22:21,736
Villagers!
99
00:22:22,533 --> 00:22:25,700
Away with you!
100
00:22:27,371 --> 00:22:30,491
Calm. They don't hurt you.
101
00:22:33,086 --> 00:22:36,371
She didn't do anything.
102
00:22:37,507 --> 00:22:41,884
Up with you, pig girl.
It's not that bad, is it?
103
00:22:42,011 --> 00:22:45,594
Pig girl?
Don't you have any eyes?!
104
00:22:47,391 --> 00:22:50,428
Here's the fur!
105
00:22:53,481 --> 00:22:57,644
I have said
we must treat them well.
106
00:22:57,777 --> 00:23:04,314
- Just what I wanted to do.
- You are out to chase.
107
00:23:04,450 --> 00:23:09,029
Keep it up.
It applies to all of you.
108
00:23:36,315 --> 00:23:41,024
Did you come up with something?
No, it's nothing serious.
109
00:23:48,161 --> 00:23:52,110
- What's your name?
- Bronwyn, sir.
110
00:23:53,082 --> 00:23:55,834
Are you from the village?
111
00:23:56,794 --> 00:24:01,207
- I own the village.
- I know, sir.
112
00:24:01,966 --> 00:24:07,257
- Which house?
- Odin's. I am his foster daughter.
113
00:24:07,388 --> 00:24:12,264
- Speak up, girl.
- Can I get dressed now?
114
00:24:16,105 --> 00:24:17,647
Yes.
115
00:24:24,906 --> 00:24:28,025
Will you watch me do it?
116
00:24:29,869 --> 00:24:31,612
Yes.
117
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,036
- Are you freezing?
- No.
118
00:24:39,587 --> 00:24:42,256
Are you scared?
119
00:24:42,465 --> 00:24:46,712
- Yes.
- I am friendly towards horses and hogs.
120
00:24:50,306 --> 00:24:52,678
Come here.
121
00:24:54,727 --> 00:24:56,767
Come here.
122
00:25:07,990 --> 00:25:11,905
- What is this?
- A wedding wreath.
123
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,994
And you are a virgin?
124
00:25:56,539 --> 00:25:58,828
Bronwyn?
125
00:26:01,043 --> 00:26:04,958
- What happened?
- He did nothing.
126
00:26:05,089 --> 00:26:08,624
- A bee stung him.
- Him?
127
00:26:11,387 --> 00:26:16,594
- I fell into the water.
- And he didn't do anything?
128
00:26:17,602 --> 00:26:24,483
- They hunted... with Chrysagon.
- And he didn't touch you?
129
00:26:28,362 --> 00:26:33,784
Do my questions hurt you?
Why are you crying?
130
00:26:34,494 --> 00:26:40,330
Marc, I have loved you,
since your father took care of me.
131
00:26:40,792 --> 00:26:44,291
- Stay away from him.
- Yes, Marc.
132
00:26:49,258 --> 00:26:51,714
Stay away from him!
133
00:26:59,977 --> 00:27:05,019
Yes, I can see him.
My dear brother!
134
00:27:05,149 --> 00:27:11,733
He stood there looking at her
and gave orders of war: "All around...
135
00:27:11,864 --> 00:27:18,366
...cover the flanks, forward with the chest.
You're showing the whole rear!"
136
00:27:35,721 --> 00:27:39,719
You haven't been out of your shirt.
That's why she annoys you.
137
00:27:39,851 --> 00:27:46,221
Annoys me? You are annoying
like an old bitch!
138
00:27:50,153 --> 00:27:54,020
- Do you have a fever, dear brother?
- I can't sleep.
139
00:27:54,157 --> 00:27:58,653
The girl may have infected you.
When you were down by the pond.
140
00:28:02,790 --> 00:28:05,412
How is she?
141
00:28:05,710 --> 00:28:13,088
Well, a woman.
Light hair, breasts, stomach, legs...
142
00:28:13,718 --> 00:28:19,305
- A woman. With a calm face.
- So does the cow.
143
00:28:19,766 --> 00:28:22,138
How was she?
144
00:28:24,020 --> 00:28:29,394
- I let her go.
- No wonder you can't sleep!
145
00:28:34,155 --> 00:28:39,398
There is something strange
at this place.
146
00:28:39,702 --> 00:28:43,534
I thought it was mine.
147
00:28:44,373 --> 00:28:50,791
A swamp and a tower
at the end of the world.
148
00:28:51,380 --> 00:28:55,129
But to own it!
149
00:28:59,013 --> 00:29:03,841
- What do you think about that?
- A m�dding.
150
00:29:04,143 --> 00:29:09,185
- You deserve much better.
- What do you say, boys?
151
00:29:09,482 --> 00:29:14,025
If the land serves you,
I am your servant.
152
00:29:14,153 --> 00:29:20,108
But if it is a wicked country?
Don't you feel it? Don't you see it?
153
00:29:20,243 --> 00:29:24,869
I'm bored.
I hear the wind and see the fever-
154
00:29:24,997 --> 00:29:28,497
- there's a hole in your head.
155
00:29:29,168 --> 00:29:34,329
The silence. It bewitches us.
156
00:29:41,848 --> 00:29:47,518
Everyone has heard that when Our Lord
Christ came, all idols were cast down
157
00:29:47,645 --> 00:29:55,023
- and demons down in Hell.
But some say they hide-
158
00:29:55,153 --> 00:30:01,107
- in godforsaken caves,
disguised as beggars and goose girls.
159
00:30:01,492 --> 00:30:06,700
Bors, you amaze me.
You have come up with a thought.
160
00:30:06,831 --> 00:30:12,335
God help him who meets one!
The blood in his heart changes.
161
00:30:12,462 --> 00:30:18,001
The witch he met today
she struck him with a fever.
162
00:30:18,134 --> 00:30:21,834
- How so?
- You let her go.
163
00:30:28,561 --> 00:30:30,304
Bors...
164
00:30:31,272 --> 00:30:37,809
Do you know who she is? Find out
and put her to work in the kitchen.
165
00:30:40,114 --> 00:30:45,025
Why should she waste her beauty
on the pigs in the swamp?
166
00:32:56,667 --> 00:32:58,826
Come here.
167
00:33:05,843 --> 00:33:11,264
Girl, grab his arms
and hold him while I…
168
00:33:14,310 --> 00:33:16,682
Lie down.
169
00:33:18,856 --> 00:33:21,063
Come here.
170
00:33:23,611 --> 00:33:29,981
Hold here and there, or he will
throw around like a plague.
171
00:33:30,118 --> 00:33:34,246
I did that.
Get started.
172
00:33:38,459 --> 00:33:45,791
If a tight hold the warrior,
so he doesn't kick as much.
173
00:33:46,426 --> 00:33:51,384
It takes ten men to hold
my lord fixed or a woman.
174
00:33:56,602 --> 00:34:00,221
Lord, now I count to five.
175
00:34:13,995 --> 00:34:15,537
A...
176
00:34:16,497 --> 00:34:18,537
...two...
177
00:34:19,500 --> 00:34:21,374
...three...
178
00:34:22,754 --> 00:34:24,414
...four...
179
00:34:25,715 --> 00:34:27,624
...five!
180
00:35:28,736 --> 00:35:34,442
Lure it here.
The falcon never knows what it wants.
181
00:35:34,575 --> 00:35:38,075
- They are almost human.
- You know less about falcons...
182
00:35:38,204 --> 00:35:42,617
...than a flea knows on Sundays.
To be able to train a falcon
183
00:35:42,750 --> 00:35:46,534
- you have to have a bigger brain
than a falcon!
184
00:35:48,089 --> 00:35:51,672
come here
or I wring your neck.
185
00:35:51,801 --> 00:35:54,802
Look how angry Sir Loppe is!
186
00:36:12,196 --> 00:36:14,734
I'll kill him.
187
00:36:16,033 --> 00:36:22,570
I'll kill you both.
I'll turn my nose up at you.
188
00:36:39,056 --> 00:36:42,057
I apologize.
189
00:37:01,245 --> 00:37:03,155
Draco!
190
00:37:10,129 --> 00:37:11,837
Draco!
191
00:38:19,031 --> 00:38:22,447
Don't run away from me.
192
00:38:24,245 --> 00:38:27,032
- Is it a poppy?
- Yes.
193
00:38:36,591 --> 00:38:42,843
- What are you going to do with it?
- Chamomile. We season the food with it.
194
00:38:43,139 --> 00:38:47,635
It also has the power
to rob a man of his wits.
195
00:38:48,978 --> 00:38:52,014
It's like magic...
196
00:38:52,607 --> 00:38:57,150
...and it can kill.
- No. My foster father cures disease...
197
00:38:57,278 --> 00:39:00,113
...with these herbs.
198
00:39:00,281 --> 00:39:03,152
- Thimble?
- Against love sorrows.
199
00:39:03,284 --> 00:39:06,949
It can cause the heart to stop.
Witchcraft!
200
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:11,457
- No, not witchcraft.
- They kill, all of them.
201
00:39:35,441 --> 00:39:38,359
- What is that?
- The mistletoe.
202
00:39:38,486 --> 00:39:42,270
It grows on the holy oak.
203
00:39:43,074 --> 00:39:46,906
- Why is one's own sacred?
- Lightning connects it to the gods.
204
00:39:47,036 --> 00:39:50,239
- Do you really believe that?
- Yes.
205
00:39:50,373 --> 00:39:55,960
Before I came here, they said, the people
had spotted belly and swim skin.
206
00:39:56,087 --> 00:40:01,330
- Do you believe that?
- Not after I saw you in the lake.
207
00:40:14,188 --> 00:40:17,771
- We lie down under the tree there.
- No.
208
00:40:17,900 --> 00:40:23,239
I have been to war and have not
had time for that sort of thing.
209
00:40:23,364 --> 00:40:27,576
- Let me go.
- I haven't even seen a girl...
210
00:40:27,702 --> 00:40:34,285
...with pleasure here. I am
tired of fighting. Say nothing, witch.
211
00:40:55,730 --> 00:40:58,137
Be merciful!
212
00:41:31,766 --> 00:41:37,353
- This is not legal.
- Do you want to be a soldier?
213
00:41:37,772 --> 00:41:42,315
- Yes, I want to be a warrior.
- People of your tribe cannot...
214
00:41:42,443 --> 00:41:48,113
...bear arms in someone's service.
And you can't handle weapons.
215
00:41:54,539 --> 00:41:58,667
- I spotted two poachers.
- They are not poachers.
216
00:41:58,793 --> 00:42:04,036
With two deer.
You said there were two, right?
217
00:42:04,215 --> 00:42:09,173
The deer died, sir.
Caught in each other's horns.
218
00:42:09,387 --> 00:42:15,674
They needed the chain. The friezes
slaughtered most of the cattle in the city.
219
00:42:15,810 --> 00:42:23,437
- Right. They killed our pigs.
- The forests belong to the sheriff.
220
00:42:23,568 --> 00:42:27,186
They must carry their cut off
right hand in the left.
221
00:42:27,321 --> 00:42:31,651
The woods belong to the duke,
and we guard them for him.
222
00:42:31,784 --> 00:42:35,153
And we also keep peace here.
223
00:42:36,205 --> 00:42:41,792
To kill the duke's deer
is a serious crime.
224
00:42:43,212 --> 00:42:48,337
- But there is no evidence.
- Evidence? My opinion is...
225
00:42:48,468 --> 00:42:51,422
- I also have opinions.
- I am a knight!
226
00:42:51,554 --> 00:42:54,127
- I can write.
- The devil's tool.
227
00:42:54,265 --> 00:42:56,258
That's enough!
228
00:42:57,393 --> 00:43:03,016
Next time they might see
your goodness as a weakness.
229
00:43:06,069 --> 00:43:09,520
There will be no "next time".
230
00:43:38,768 --> 00:43:44,438
You! Why do you still have
the boy on a leash?
231
00:43:44,565 --> 00:43:48,065
It is the only way
to train him on.
232
00:44:02,208 --> 00:44:05,375
Stick to the tower, boy.
233
00:44:12,093 --> 00:44:18,048
My master has spent all his morning
on your people, so take care.
234
00:44:19,350 --> 00:44:25,353
My son, Marc, submissively requests
about having to get married.
235
00:44:31,529 --> 00:44:35,657
- With that girl?
- My foster daughter, Bronwyn.
236
00:44:38,578 --> 00:44:40,535
When?
237
00:44:40,997 --> 00:44:43,666
- Tomorrow.
- Already tomorrow?
238
00:44:43,791 --> 00:44:48,833
They have been engaged since they
was a child, so now is the time.
239
00:44:50,798 --> 00:44:55,626
- Your son has permission to marry.
- We thank you.
240
00:45:26,375 --> 00:45:30,456
Work on the moat is progressing.
The blacksmith says that…
241
00:45:30,588 --> 00:45:34,800
No, that's enough now.
Out with him!
242
00:46:21,514 --> 00:46:25,464
Well though!
What is happening to you?
243
00:46:33,484 --> 00:46:36,984
- Is that the t�sen?
- Shut up!
244
00:46:37,113 --> 00:46:42,700
If you want her, take her.
You don't see a woman every day.
245
00:46:42,827 --> 00:46:46,611
- She is getting married tomorrow.
- Why not see tonight?
246
00:46:46,748 --> 00:46:52,122
I don't take a woman
the night before she is to be married.
247
00:46:52,253 --> 00:46:57,164
You are right.
I shouldn't have mentioned that.
248
00:46:57,675 --> 00:47:03,049
What about tomorrow?
Get... the priest.
249
00:47:09,854 --> 00:47:12,345
Priest!
250
00:47:13,691 --> 00:47:19,148
You are entitled to the first night.
Ask the priest.
251
00:47:23,409 --> 00:47:30,076
Of all the seven virtues is chastity
the most peculiar.
252
00:47:30,208 --> 00:47:34,371
You are master of this miserable land,
and she is part of that…
253
00:47:34,504 --> 00:47:39,249
...so therefore she belongs to you.
Ask him.
254
00:47:42,428 --> 00:47:52,096
Dear priest, we need your advice.
Do you know the laws of the church?
255
00:47:52,814 --> 00:47:57,476
A bit. But my order concerns
speak not with the law, but with…
256
00:47:57,610 --> 00:48:02,817
...to atone for what people have
broken by lack of love.
257
00:48:02,949 --> 00:48:06,781
it's love
I wanted to ask you about.
258
00:48:07,412 --> 00:48:12,204
The knight here is needed
an innocent pleasure.
259
00:48:12,333 --> 00:48:18,786
- No pleasure is innocent.
- You know...
260
00:48:18,923 --> 00:48:22,837
...that the Sheriff is right
for the wedding night?
261
00:48:22,969 --> 00:48:27,346
The Church forbids it.
It is a pagan law.
262
00:48:27,473 --> 00:48:33,642
- We are in a pagan country.
- Not Sunday mornings.
263
00:48:34,105 --> 00:48:40,642
We found the governor with a bride
in his embrace. Didn't she come voluntarily?
264
00:48:40,862 --> 00:48:45,073
- What do you say in Rome?
- "Jus primae noctis".
265
00:48:45,199 --> 00:48:51,534
- It is well-known in Rome!
- Condemned as heresy.
266
00:48:52,331 --> 00:48:58,085
- But still...
- Go on, good father.
267
00:48:58,546 --> 00:49:06,008
Fertility. It is called pagan.
But who isn't pagan now and then?
268
00:49:06,137 --> 00:49:13,100
- So true! That's how the learned speak.
- The young people are so frivolous.
269
00:49:13,269 --> 00:49:17,183
Resist temptation, I say.
But no!
270
00:49:17,356 --> 00:49:25,731
To save their souls I say:
"Be formed and fill the earth."
271
00:49:25,865 --> 00:49:29,614
And then they obey me.
272
00:49:30,161 --> 00:49:39,544
- But how can this concern you...
- We follow pagan law.
273
00:49:40,755 --> 00:49:45,464
- When does the wedding take place?
- The one in the church or the other?
274
00:49:45,593 --> 00:49:49,543
The other one?
We come to the church.
275
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:58,896
To claim that right?
This weak hand can throw lightning!
276
00:49:59,023 --> 00:50:04,230
- No holy bread.
- Not in God's church.
277
00:50:20,878 --> 00:50:26,714
There is another wedding,
in a pagan way.
278
00:50:26,843 --> 00:50:34,055
There they drink, do clowning
and dancing. A real party!
279
00:53:42,830 --> 00:53:45,321
Hold the boy back.
280
00:53:50,296 --> 00:53:55,966
- They do us great honor, sir.
- I demand my right.
281
00:54:06,479 --> 00:54:08,555
That is his right.
282
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,433
Quiet!
283
00:54:15,613 --> 00:54:20,820
Even if it's my own son,
so it is his right.
284
00:54:24,330 --> 00:54:28,280
Not according to his law,
but according to our
285
00:54:32,505 --> 00:54:38,460
Our law. Long before the Normans
came with their church and tower.
286
00:54:38,594 --> 00:54:44,929
We cultivated the stone and the tree
and cultivated holy seed in the field.
287
00:54:45,101 --> 00:54:50,226
Then and now a virgin was sacrificed
to make the soil fertile
288
00:54:50,356 --> 00:54:55,813
- and to make the people rich. But
to take her as you do is violence.
289
00:55:01,868 --> 00:55:07,289
It must be done our way.
The old way. Do you accept it?
290
00:55:13,504 --> 00:55:19,128
With a ring of fire, on the druids
holy way. Do you accept it?
291
00:55:20,720 --> 00:55:25,298
- I accept.
- Prepare a high place.
292
00:55:26,768 --> 00:55:33,731
- I have already done that.
- Your men must carry iron...
293
00:55:34,358 --> 00:55:37,692
...and stand guard!
294
00:55:41,032 --> 00:55:46,572
When the moon rises,
we bring the virgin bride to you.
295
00:55:47,872 --> 00:55:49,699
Wait!
296
00:55:49,832 --> 00:55:54,827
When the sun rises,
I want her back.
297
00:55:57,256 --> 00:55:59,629
Let it be so!
298
00:59:09,824 --> 00:59:14,071
Now I go
and await the sunrise.
299
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:47,268
- Are you crying? No, stay still.
- Yes, sir.
300
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:53,942
- The Sheriff speaks and everyone obeys.
- Isn't that what you want?
301
00:59:54,077 --> 01:00:00,364
No, you are free to go or stay.
I feared you would go...
302
01:00:00,917 --> 01:00:03,408
Look at me!
303
01:00:04,003 --> 01:00:08,831
I have the right to take you.
That's my right.
304
01:00:17,809 --> 01:00:21,557
- Do you want me to go?
- G�?
305
01:00:22,146 --> 01:00:27,307
Back to the pigs
and to your damned people?!
306
01:00:27,443 --> 01:00:29,934
Yes, go!
307
01:00:33,241 --> 01:00:34,984
G�!
308
01:00:38,663 --> 01:00:40,821
Wait.
309
01:00:48,589 --> 01:00:57,048
I need you like the air, I
End... the sunshine, fire in the winter.
310
01:00:59,350 --> 01:01:01,473
�re...
311
01:01:04,021 --> 01:01:08,268
That's what was gnawing at me.
312
01:01:11,654 --> 01:01:18,321
I need you for my life.
It is more than the blood.
313
01:01:18,453 --> 01:01:21,868
The fever in my flesh.
314
01:01:22,540 --> 01:01:27,961
It is sacred to let a man
of distinguished burden begin one's life.
315
01:01:46,147 --> 01:01:50,975
Are you afraid of me?
I'm not bewitching anyone.
316
01:01:51,152 --> 01:01:55,613
Spells can be broken.
317
01:01:58,493 --> 01:02:02,158
Lord, I am bewitched too.
318
01:02:51,462 --> 01:02:58,379
- You let them hold me back.
- Otherwise you were chopped to pieces.
319
01:03:00,888 --> 01:03:05,764
He has my wife.
He's touching her!
320
01:03:06,060 --> 01:03:10,307
- Oh, God, he's touching my wife!
- Calm down, my son.
321
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:15,185
Slaves have no sons.
Who took my mother away from you?
322
01:03:15,319 --> 01:03:18,107
Who is my father?!
323
01:03:19,198 --> 01:03:25,912
If she had been kicked out
an ox, would you take care of her.
324
01:03:31,669 --> 01:03:36,829
Forget the pain.
Who knows her better than you?
325
01:03:39,177 --> 01:03:45,215
She is yours. She has been,
since she was little.
326
01:04:29,852 --> 01:04:35,392
I couldn't sleep.
It's so cold out there.
327
01:04:37,985 --> 01:04:44,487
You have pointed ears
and cunning eyes.
328
01:04:49,997 --> 01:04:56,830
I couldn't sleep either.
We are all made of clay.
329
01:04:57,130 --> 01:05:03,464
You, me and my big brother,
that's in the bed up there.
330
01:05:03,678 --> 01:05:08,470
But I'm sure
he doesn't sleep.
331
01:05:13,271 --> 01:05:18,561
I wonder if the louse was created
on the same day as man.
332
01:05:18,693 --> 01:05:25,691
- You let it happen.
- I don't deserve the priest's dress.
333
01:05:25,825 --> 01:05:32,622
But you understand, sir, I am too
a human... and a louse.
334
01:05:39,005 --> 01:05:43,049
Stand right! You are a travel guard!
335
01:06:06,324 --> 01:06:10,701
The sun rises
as on all other days.
336
01:06:15,416 --> 01:06:21,668
You screamed last night, but I kept quiet
on you and you fell asleep again.
337
01:06:21,839 --> 01:06:27,082
I dreamed about my father.
He died of grief-
338
01:06:27,220 --> 01:06:32,890
- when his fief was
been sold as tuition.
339
01:06:33,518 --> 01:06:39,852
His right side died first
and then his left.
340
01:06:40,775 --> 01:06:45,318
He took my hands between his...
341
01:06:47,573 --> 01:06:55,533
...and swore the oath of allegiance. I swore
to protect my brother-
342
01:06:55,665 --> 01:07:01,039
- and to get our country back.
But he was already dead.
343
01:07:02,255 --> 01:07:08,091
I took the sword out of his right hand
hand. I have lived 20 years...
344
01:07:08,219 --> 01:07:11,670
...with the cold wife.
345
01:07:13,391 --> 01:07:18,634
And from his dead finger
I took this ring.
346
01:07:28,197 --> 01:07:32,575
- What are you doing?
- Lord, the day is dawning.
347
01:07:37,665 --> 01:07:42,872
They won't take you away from me.
Neither the Duke, the Devil nor...
348
01:07:43,004 --> 01:07:46,207
It can never be the two of us.
349
01:08:12,617 --> 01:08:17,859
Day breaks over the swamp.
Have you noticed that?
350
01:08:18,456 --> 01:08:22,204
It seems,
your fever is gone.
351
01:08:25,171 --> 01:08:29,749
Odins is waiting for her down there.
352
01:08:35,139 --> 01:08:40,264
Did you hear what I said, Chrysagon?
It's over now.
353
01:08:42,396 --> 01:08:46,940
- I want to talk to him.
- Let the old one howl.
354
01:08:47,193 --> 01:08:51,440
But remember what the duke said.
355
01:08:52,490 --> 01:08:56,108
"Keep their goodwill," he said.
356
01:08:57,578 --> 01:09:02,406
I'm not giving up on her.
I can't do that.
357
01:09:02,959 --> 01:09:09,127
- Do you want to destroy all our lives?
- My life is my own!
358
01:09:10,967 --> 01:09:17,634
Dear brother, you were the duke's
most precious jewel.
359
01:09:17,765 --> 01:09:24,135
Through you we have received everything.
And we must have something!
360
01:09:24,981 --> 01:09:28,848
You got the oats,
my horse should have had-
361
01:09:28,985 --> 01:09:33,279
- and the armor,
my men had carried.
362
01:09:33,406 --> 01:09:40,903
I gave you all the spoils of war,
when you danced at court.
363
01:09:41,038 --> 01:09:46,281
While I was sweating in the armor
and fought for 20 years!
364
01:09:46,461 --> 01:09:50,873
- And I got nothing.
- You are our master!
365
01:09:53,217 --> 01:09:58,638
You cannot be a slave
for another slave.
366
01:10:03,895 --> 01:10:10,229
Look at her.
A flower face, the pig's sister.
367
01:10:10,651 --> 01:10:16,690
This naked witch...
She wears our father's ring!
368
01:10:18,326 --> 01:10:21,576
Is it... and her!
369
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:31,327
She is mine!
370
01:10:36,260 --> 01:10:39,048
You are bewitched.
371
01:10:40,598 --> 01:10:45,059
you got her
and now you can keep her.
372
01:10:45,186 --> 01:10:48,187
May your soul be damned!
373
01:11:02,370 --> 01:11:04,943
where is she
374
01:11:05,081 --> 01:11:10,206
He talks about love,
as in the songs.
375
01:11:10,336 --> 01:11:15,331
- He is not tired of his play clothes.
- I have to talk to him.
376
01:11:20,721 --> 01:11:23,722
Never touch me!
377
01:11:37,488 --> 01:11:41,782
What are you waiting for?
Do you not understand that it is over?
378
01:11:42,493 --> 01:11:44,865
where is she
379
01:11:47,707 --> 01:11:54,326
Father, forgive me for what I said
yesterday. He had a right to it.
380
01:11:56,048 --> 01:11:59,299
But now that I'm bringing her back...
381
01:12:08,019 --> 01:12:10,889
He keeps her.
382
01:12:20,490 --> 01:12:25,780
No!
He has no rights now.
383
01:12:25,912 --> 01:12:32,164
Will you be cut down by the sword?
They are warriors.
384
01:12:32,460 --> 01:12:37,703
I once killed a wild boar.
I can kill a horse and a man!
385
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:43,048
You can't kill him.
He was born to kill.
386
01:12:43,179 --> 01:12:48,090
I will put my sickle in his breast
like a hook in rotten meat.
387
01:12:48,226 --> 01:12:52,722
I liked him.
Can you imagine that?
388
01:12:52,855 --> 01:12:57,149
He appeared to be a man,
and I would serve him.
389
01:12:57,318 --> 01:13:03,487
I was furious yesterday, but I
thought he was better than me.
390
01:13:04,492 --> 01:13:10,577
- I want to strangle him!
- But not alone.
391
01:13:10,706 --> 01:13:15,368
- Sail across the water to the friezes.
- Take the boat and bring them here.
392
01:13:15,503 --> 01:13:20,628
Why should they help us?
Because the little boy says so?
393
01:13:20,758 --> 01:13:27,674
No, for the sake of the boy I took.
He is their prince. Do you hear-
394
01:13:27,807 --> 01:13:32,932
- that he is a prisoner in the tower,
they tear it down stone by stone.
395
01:13:33,062 --> 01:13:38,602
- A Frisian prince! Did he say that?
- This told it.
396
01:13:46,409 --> 01:13:52,328
Take it to them. I keep
this, so I will be master here.
397
01:13:53,166 --> 01:13:57,543
Go, my son.
Bloodshed is inevitable.
398
01:13:57,670 --> 01:14:00,873
I'll be back in a week.
399
01:14:01,883 --> 01:14:06,343
She wants to escape from him, no matter what
he still holds her to him.
400
01:14:15,271 --> 01:14:18,391
Woman, bring it in.
401
01:15:21,087 --> 01:15:24,088
where are the villagers
who works with the moat?
402
01:15:24,215 --> 01:15:31,131
- Nobody came today. Yesterday only two came.
- I haven't seen the oldest since...
403
01:17:37,432 --> 01:17:40,966
It's cold.
You're shaking, my love.
404
01:17:45,356 --> 01:17:51,110
Do you know the stars? My father learned
me to find my way with their help.
405
01:17:51,237 --> 01:17:57,192
I only know this village
and now only this tower.
406
01:17:58,536 --> 01:18:01,157
Do you want to go back?
407
01:18:03,249 --> 01:18:06,832
I can't leave you.
408
01:18:09,338 --> 01:18:15,293
The world is bigger than this tower,
and I know the way.
409
01:18:15,428 --> 01:18:22,558
There is a place... far away,
where I can take you.
410
01:18:23,060 --> 01:18:27,354
When? Tell me now!
411
01:18:27,482 --> 01:18:34,398
I must maintain the place here
a while longer, for the duke's sake.
412
01:18:55,134 --> 01:18:57,423
Frisians are back!
413
01:19:46,060 --> 01:19:50,806
Get oil and water!
Break stones loosely in the tower.
414
01:21:08,518 --> 01:21:10,973
Warlord!
415
01:21:13,731 --> 01:21:18,440
Give us the boy
or we'll cut your throat.
416
01:21:27,203 --> 01:21:33,952
- Has the whole village gone over to them?
- Almost everyone. God save them!
417
01:21:35,211 --> 01:21:39,790
Aren't they your falcons,
him the little one there?
418
01:21:43,928 --> 01:21:51,674
Sir Loppe has left us.
A small loss, isn't it, brother?
419
01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:56,933
Warlord!
Give us the boy. My son!
420
01:22:14,917 --> 01:22:20,374
Is he your son? You sold my father
for a bucketful of gold.
421
01:22:21,174 --> 01:22:25,836
Same price for your son!
Or do you want him without a head?!
422
01:23:28,449 --> 01:23:33,740
Can you sharpen it sharp enough
to hack your way out?
423
01:23:34,622 --> 01:23:42,084
We are all safe with you.
We just have to put our trust in you.
424
01:23:52,723 --> 01:23:56,935
Lie here with your girlfriend,
Sir Chrysagon de la Crux.
425
01:23:57,061 --> 01:24:01,522
Straight to the pirates
topples the tower into the swamp.
426
01:24:02,567 --> 01:24:09,020
- Are you breaking your oath to the duke?
- You are the sheriff.
427
01:24:09,157 --> 01:24:16,452
"Keep the place here," he said. Out there
the people are waiting for you with great thieves.
428
01:24:18,124 --> 01:24:21,908
Be quiet, brother!
429
01:24:22,044 --> 01:24:27,335
Do you want to cut me down?
with the great sword?
430
01:24:29,427 --> 01:24:37,435
You are a big and strong man.
Or I'll cut you down.
431
01:24:39,395 --> 01:24:43,772
But however it happens,
so you will never be right.
432
01:25:00,083 --> 01:25:02,408
Now! Open it!
433
01:25:13,513 --> 01:25:17,510
My brother rides to the duke
for help.
434
01:25:47,922 --> 01:25:50,793
- It's ready.
- The gate!
435
01:26:25,668 --> 01:26:27,043
Now!
436
01:26:47,940 --> 01:26:51,475
- We need an entrance hall.
- There is none.
437
01:27:00,036 --> 01:27:01,993
Master!
438
01:27:05,500 --> 01:27:09,034
The floor!
It may have an anchor.
439
01:27:09,170 --> 01:27:11,708
Give me a rope.
440
01:27:13,382 --> 01:27:16,467
String it around the post.
441
01:27:20,556 --> 01:27:25,598
- Not you, Bors.
- I just like to die wet as dry.
442
01:28:28,207 --> 01:28:30,164
Careful.
443
01:28:36,632 --> 01:28:38,175
Pull!
444
01:30:44,802 --> 01:30:50,556
- Is the help from Ghent here soon?
- Help?
445
01:30:54,771 --> 01:30:59,729
It will come sooner or later,
if the Duke wants it that way.
446
01:30:59,901 --> 01:31:07,113
- But when it arrives in time?
- Yes. If they rush…
447
01:31:07,241 --> 01:31:13,114
...and if we're still alive,
so when it arrives in time.
448
01:31:50,326 --> 01:31:52,615
Up with you!
449
01:33:50,530 --> 01:33:52,154
Water!
450
01:34:11,426 --> 01:34:14,676
We must go down and fight.
451
01:34:43,750 --> 01:34:46,834
Barricade the stairs!
452
01:35:37,512 --> 01:35:39,469
The horses!
453
01:36:01,661 --> 01:36:03,321
The oil!
454
01:37:30,792 --> 01:37:35,169
Block the opening.
They are not finished yet.
455
01:39:13,978 --> 01:39:17,098
Tybald, ring the bell!
456
01:40:01,192 --> 01:40:02,734
Now!
457
01:41:39,582 --> 01:41:43,200
It's Draco
with Thunderstorm!
458
01:43:59,305 --> 01:44:01,132
Master!
459
01:44:13,444 --> 01:44:15,236
Draco!
460
01:44:28,793 --> 01:44:30,951
Draco!
461
01:44:31,295 --> 01:44:34,332
- Our savior.
- Not yet.
462
01:44:34,465 --> 01:44:41,713
- The savages are hiding in the forest.
- They will stay as long as we have the boy.
463
01:44:42,098 --> 01:44:47,341
Now they can't take him.
They have to buy him.
464
01:44:48,104 --> 01:44:56,693
The duke gave me more than the warriors.
He promised me half the tuition.
465
01:44:58,948 --> 01:45:05,366
- Tuition?
- The world is changing, brother.
466
01:45:06,622 --> 01:45:14,333
His father held our father prisoner.
Shall we sell him piece by piece?
467
01:45:17,800 --> 01:45:21,216
A shame that he is so small.
468
01:45:22,638 --> 01:45:26,173
We can start with an ear.
469
01:45:28,853 --> 01:45:35,105
- Let it be. I've had enough of blood.
- Should I let it go?
470
01:45:35,443 --> 01:45:40,817
No, my brother
...my fat brother.
471
01:45:41,699 --> 01:45:49,410
The Duke has also had enough. When he
hear about the trouble you've caused...
472
01:45:49,540 --> 01:45:55,958
...he made me sheriff.
Didn't I say the world is changing?
473
01:45:56,089 --> 01:45:59,504
- Are you sheriff here?
- Yes.
474
01:46:00,343 --> 01:46:05,052
That little bug is mine.
I can kill or sell it.
475
01:46:05,181 --> 01:46:09,890
The whole village is mine!
And they go rogue to villagers…
476
01:46:11,562 --> 01:46:16,639
...they must see what is going on
costs! Empty arms and legs!
477
01:46:16,776 --> 01:46:22,067
- For what I've done?
- Take the burden if you want.
478
01:46:22,198 --> 01:46:28,735
Your sins and mine.
Ask for God's grace... or Hell's.
479
01:46:29,455 --> 01:46:34,366
- I've been there.
- Then look for the Holy Grail...
480
01:46:34,502 --> 01:46:39,923
...and take her with you.
But first I want my father's ring.
481
01:46:42,009 --> 01:46:47,430
The ring, I say!
Should I also take the finger?
482
01:46:58,526 --> 01:47:04,066
- Draco, I can't fight you.
- So I guess I have to fight with you.
483
01:47:19,964 --> 01:47:21,791
Why?
484
01:47:22,133 --> 01:47:28,503
I ate your bread and rode your horse,
and I lived in the shadows-
485
01:47:28,639 --> 01:47:34,725
- of your justice. The Duke
smiled at you! But not anymore!
486
01:47:34,896 --> 01:47:40,186
Now I decide here,
and you must all swear allegiance to me.
487
01:47:41,944 --> 01:47:47,401
- Not as long as my master lives.
- So shall your master die.
488
01:47:57,752 --> 01:48:01,536
Now the case must be decided.
489
01:48:02,256 --> 01:48:04,130
Draco...
490
01:48:06,511 --> 01:48:10,508
I swear allegiance to you.
491
01:48:17,647 --> 01:48:21,098
- I swear by my father's...
- Call!
492
01:48:25,947 --> 01:48:31,866
Do you prefer slaughter to
battle, you must get what you want.
493
01:49:06,779 --> 01:49:08,487
Draco!
494
01:50:18,226 --> 01:50:21,559
My stupid brother!
495
01:52:19,013 --> 01:52:21,053
Come on, boy!
496
01:52:38,157 --> 01:52:41,028
Keep her here with you.
497
01:52:42,578 --> 01:52:44,571
My lady...
498
01:53:59,405 --> 01:54:05,609
For this gift, my son,
I give you everything I can.
499
01:54:05,745 --> 01:54:09,244
High position, riches, land.
500
01:54:09,957 --> 01:54:12,793
Follow us across the sea.
501
01:54:17,006 --> 01:54:18,750
No.
502
01:54:28,935 --> 01:54:36,266
Why not? Take him with you.
You and she can get away from this.
503
01:54:36,609 --> 01:54:43,146
- I can't give up this place.
- It's not yours anymore.
504
01:54:43,324 --> 01:54:49,943
It belonged to Draco for a time.
The Duke will soon send another.
505
01:54:50,081 --> 01:54:54,031
How should you see�
could save her?
506
01:54:54,794 --> 01:55:01,046
Kill him? And the next one?
And finally the duke himself?
507
01:55:04,887 --> 01:55:11,601
- Will you give my woman sanctuary...
- My home is also hers.
508
01:55:14,397 --> 01:55:17,647
I'll take her over to you.
509
01:55:42,300 --> 01:55:48,504
Are you sending her over to the Frisians?
Really �partly done by you.
510
01:55:49,390 --> 01:55:54,017
- And afterwards?
- Then I ride to the Duke.
511
01:55:54,145 --> 01:55:58,392
Why?
Do you want to turn us into ghosts?!
512
01:55:58,524 --> 01:56:03,352
I want to do it right
I have caused here, good again.
513
01:56:03,488 --> 01:56:10,735
You talk like a fool.
Asking for mercy for the swamp people?!
514
01:56:10,870 --> 01:56:14,915
The Duke impales
our heads on a pole.
515
01:56:15,041 --> 01:56:19,085
Bors, you don't have to come with me.
516
01:56:20,046 --> 01:56:26,084
Your father asked me to ride with you when you
didn't even reach the saddle.
517
01:56:27,678 --> 01:56:33,183
I've ridden way too many miles
to leave you now.
518
01:56:56,165 --> 01:56:57,909
Bronwyn!
519
01:57:00,628 --> 01:57:03,249
Bronwyn!
520
01:57:37,915 --> 01:57:42,873
Look at me.
I can't take you with…
521
01:57:44,338 --> 01:57:51,219
...to that remote place.
But I will always be with you...
522
01:57:51,512 --> 01:57:56,340
...wherever you go.
Head north.
523
01:57:56,517 --> 01:58:02,390
- No! I want to stay with you.
- It won't do.
524
01:58:02,607 --> 01:58:08,775
I have to stay here. But if you
leaves, so will I.
525
01:58:13,534 --> 01:58:16,204
Get up...
526
01:58:17,997 --> 01:58:22,789
...and go,
then we both leave.
527
01:59:01,958 --> 01:59:05,872
Bors, I'm tired.
528
01:59:08,047 --> 01:59:10,669
I'm in pain.
529
01:59:55,428 --> 02:00:00,339
Keep the place here
...until I come back.
530
02:00:01,934 --> 02:00:05,434
Be sure to keep it safe.
