(BONES RATTLING)

What is it you wish
to ask the gods?

Will I ever bear another
child, o wise one?

I cannot see another child.
No matter how far I look.

Then...
what do you see?

(SEER INHALES DEEPLY)

I see a harvest
celebrated in blood.

I see a trickster
whose weapon cleaves you.

I see a city made of marble.
And a burning, broiling ocean.

Not one of your prophecies
do I understand.

It is the way of prophecy.

Only to be understood
when it has happened,

and it is too late
to change it.

When will I die?

Frigg, the wife of Odin,
has already made a decision.

But it has not yet
been vouchsafed to me.

Come back another day,

Earl and shield-maiden,

and perhaps I may tell you

exactly the moment
of your death.

LOTHBROK: When the ice
finally breaks,

we will go back to Wessex

and claim the land
that King Ecbert promised us.

You know,
that was always my dream.

(EXCLAIMS SHARPLY)

I feel my blood warming!

I want to fight.
I want to raid.

Why do you want to fight?

And what are you fighting for?

That.

(SIGHS)

What do you see?

Power.

The power of a king.

Power is always dangerous.

It attracts the worst.

And corrupts the best.

I never asked for power.

Power is only given to those

who are prepared to
lower themselves to pick it up.

(SNIFFLES)

(IF I HAD A HEART PLAYING)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

LAGERTHA:
Einar.

LAGERTHA:
Sit down, Kalf.

Will you come with me
to Wessex?

No, Earl Ingstad.

Why not?

Don't you want to win renown?

Of course I do.

But someone has to remain and
look after all your territories,

and all of your
interests here.

I believe you trust me
to do this.

I do.

In this last year you have
earned my trust in many ways.

I have received
another offer of marriage.

Egill Sokkason
has proposed himself.

You could do worse.

He has a good turf-cutting
business.

At least I'd be warm
all winter.

(LAUGHS)

Why don't you
offer to marry me, Kalf?

You've made yourself
almost indispensable to me.

I have nothing to offer you
but a capable head.

Let me be the judge of that.

People would assume
that I'd sought the marriage

out of ambition.

It would do
neither of us any good.

Tell me about Einar.

Einar still hates you.

He continues
trying to persuade

members of his family
to rise up against you

and restore the old dynasty.

What to do?

I was thinking how it will be
onboard one of these ships.

Sailing across the sea
to England.

We have not
talked about it yet.

I am not sure I want you
to come with us to Wessex.

I am ready.

I have endured
many hours of training.

Lagertha herself even helped me.

But what if you are
with child already?

If I lost you, then I would
also lose my child.

I am coming with you!

You can't stop me.

LOTHBROK: I'm going to
cook you little piggies.

(BOYS LAUGHING)

Oh... and eat you for dinner.

Whoa!

(YELLING)

(GROANING)

(BOYS LAUGHING)

What are you laughing at?

Ahh!

(LAUGHING STOPS)

(BABY CRYING)

Please don't stop playing
on our account.

Oh, yeah, we had finished.

Oh...

How is Boneless?

Ivar is what he is.
You know that.

(CRYING CONTINUES)

(CRYING CONTINUES)

(BABY COUGHING)

(FLOKI GIGGLING)

We are such a happy family.

And what is wrong
with that, Floki?

Families are not happy.

Name me one family
which is happy.

-Ragnar's.
-(GIGGLES)

Which one?

HELGA: Just look at her.

Yeah, but it makes me
too happy, Helga.

-You don't love your daughter?
-No, that's not what I meant.

-That's not...
-Well, then explain it to me!

I feel trapped,
in all this happiness.

I feel trapped, Helga.

We do not want to
trap you, Floki.

If you want to leave us,
you should leave.

You're too reasonable, Helga.
It doesn't help.

W-why are you not
angry with me?

Yes, I angry with you, Floki.

But, but it doesn't help either.

Perhaps when you get back from
Wessex you will see sense.

Perhaps I will die in Wessex.

-Where are you going?
-Away! Just away!

You're so horribly good,
Helga!

(IVAR WAILING)

LOTHBROK:
What is the matter with him?

(ASLAUG SCOFFS)

How do I know?

But you see how he suffers.

(VOICE BREAKING)
And I cannot make it better.

Do you even care?

Yes, I care.

(ASLAUG SNIFFLES)

(SOFTLY)
Do you love him?

Of course I love him.

Do you love me?

(INDISTINCT TALKING)

(BELLS JINGLING)

(CROWD STOMPING)

(HORN BLOWING)

She's gone.

Now we can talk.

Talk of what, Einar?

Of betrayal, of murder?

(SCOFFS)
No, not with me.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

LOTHBROK:
I know you well, my friend.

And I know what tortures you.

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

But what choice do you have?

You can neither hide
from your God, nor ours.

I suffer from
that same dilemma,

only in reverse.

We will go together to Wessex

and you will be my
John the, um...

-The Baptist.
-John the Baptist, yes.

Wherever you go,

I will follow.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

BJORN:
Torstein!

TORSTEIN:
I have a problem.

Two women. Both claim
to be carrying my child.

Is it possible?

(SCOFFING)

ROLLO: Why don't you marry
both of them?

Hmm? Take one as a wife,
the other as a... Concubine?

TORSTEIN: No.
They hate each other.

They want to kill each other.
Or kill me.

Please, just tell me, when are
we sailing out of here?

(GRUNTS)

(MEN GRUNTING)

(CHICKENS CLUCKING)

(HORN BLOWING)

FLOKI:
Rollo!

You cannot understand!
I'm so happy!

I'm so happy we're leaving.

(LAUGHING)

ROLLO: Believe me, Floki,
I understand completely.

FLOKI: What have
I told you, Torstein?

Always keep that ax
in your pants,

if you want to avoid troubles.
(GIGGLES)

Well, some of us...

have to bring our troubles
with us.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

She wanted to come with us?

I could not stop her.

She reminds me
of someone else I know.

-(CROWD CHEERING)
-(DRUMS BEATING)

(MEN SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

KALF: Time to die, Einar.

I want to die
with an ax in my hand.

As though
I had died in battle.

Surely you won't
deny me that?

(CHUCKLES)

You're joking.

Why would a man about to die
joke about such things?

Will you give me the ax,
or not?

Your gift was foolish.

I don't think you'll use it
against me.

Oh, why not?

If you kill an unarmed man,

then you really are the coward

Lagertha thinks you are.

But, in any case,

would you really kill
your own Earl?

My Earl?

Persuade your family
to support me as Earl,

and we will get rid of the woman

who usurped your uncle.
What does she do for us?

She goes raiding
with Ragnar Lothbrok.

I had no idea.

And that is the beauty of it.

Ragnar and Lagertha...

talk only of farming.

Farming.

Who wants to go places
and farm?

Where is the glory
in that, Einar?

Where is
the glory in that?

(HORSES NEIGHING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

ECBERT:
Welcome near!

I bid you all welcome.

Earl Ragnar.

ATHELSTAN:
He is King now.

King Ragnar Lothbrok.

What happened to King Horik?

He met with a, uh...

unfortunate accident.

Then we are truly equal.

It is my pleasure to feed you

and prove the
bounty of our Earth.

What has happened
to our people

who chose to fight for Mercia?

Unfortunately,
the forces of my uncle

and younger brother
have prevailed.

But if you, Ragnar Lothbrok,

and you, Lagertha, would join
with us I am sure of victory.

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(LAGERTHA IN NATIVE TONGUE)

ECBERT: (IN ENGLISH)
Um, King Ragnar,

I have given you land.

Let me tell you the truth,
as God is my witness,

some of my nobles do not agree
with what I have done.

They are afraid.

But, I am determined
to honor our treaty.

In return,
some of you, at least,

must fight for
Princess Kwenthrith.

(INHALING)
That is not part of our

original agreement,

but...

in good faith,

and in hopes

of creating
a long and prosperous...

friendship,

I will fight.

But I cannot speak
for the others.

(CLEARS THROAT)

I will fight,
alongside these pagans.

For Mercia.

(FLOKI IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(WHISPERING IN ENGLISH)
All have agreed,

except Lagertha.

(GRUNTING)

(WHISPERING) Go and translate
to Lagertha for me.

In order to establish
the settlement here in Wessex,

I need the help
of one of your leaders.

A strong leader.

Someone that my nobles
will respect.

(TRANSLATING IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN ENGLISH)
She agrees to remain
in Wessex,

to establish the settlement
and to help farm the land.

ECBERT: And you also must stay,
Athelstan.

You can speak for all sides.
We need you.

I need you.

I trust you more than
anyone else.

I think you should stay.

Then I shall stay.

Skol!

ALL: Skol!

ECBERT:
You left this behind.

-I...
-Go on, take it.

(HORSES NEIGHING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(SIGHS)

May the gods go with you
and protect you, my son.

Princess.

I just wanted to wish you
and your people good fortune.

My prayers go with you.

Thank you, my lady.

May I touch your hand?

My hand?

They told me
you were crucified.

And you still bear
the stigmata of Christ.

It's not true.

Then why not
show me your hand?

I...

It is true.

I bid you goodbye, wife.

Fare you well, husband.
Go safely.

Take care of our child.

And wait patiently
for my return.

You do not have to
come with us.

You can go with Lagertha
and the other settlers.

(SIGHS)

I love you.

And I think you are
already with child.

(LAUGHS)

(MAN SHOUTING)

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN ENGLISH)
Away.

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(TRANSLATING IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(IN ENGLISH) Are you happy
about doing this, brother?

(CHUCKLES)

Since when does any of this

have anything to do
with my happiness?

MAN: Forward!

Tell me about your uncle.

My uncle's name is Brihtwulf.

Though he calls himself
King Brihtwulf now.

He has no right to do so.

He has usurped my crown.

And your younger brother?

His name is Burgred.

We were always close.
And I love him.

Then why does he fight
against you?

My uncle has
poisoned his mind

or used some magic
against him.

Magic?

Has no-one ever used
magic against you,

Ragnar Lothbrok?

Think.

A wife? A brother? A friend?

I have been deceived
many times,

but magic was not
the cause of it.

-(MUSIC PLAYING)

TORSTEIN:
Ooh, that I could have her.

I'd marry her tomorrow.

And we'd have lots of children
and be true to each other...

-(FLOKI CHUCKLING)
-...forever.

A creaking bow,
a burning flame...

Tide on the ebb, new ice,
a coiled snake.

The sons of a king,
an ailing calf,

a witch's flattery.

No man should be such a fool
as to trust these things.

FLOKI: No man should trust
the word of a woman.

The hearts of women
were turned on a whirling wheel.

To love a fickle woman
is like setting out over ice

with a two-year-old colt.

Or sailing a ship without
a rudder.

AETHELWULF:
Whatever my father says,

I can't bring myself
to trust these pagans.

Their way of life is crude,

primitive, ignorant.

They have not been redeemed

by our savior's love
and sacrifice.

They are like the...
creatures of the fields.

I too loved someone
in the same way once.

I sat among the reeds, waiting
and waiting for my love.

I prized that woman
as much as my own life.

Lot of good it did me.

And what do you get
from sitting in the reeds,

but a wet arse.

(LAUGHING)

I would say,
let no man mock another

over what touches many men.

Time and again the wise
are fettered by beauty.

They ache with love-longing.

Lucky are the fools like you,
Torstein,

who remain unmoved and free!

(LAUGHING)

(MEN CHEERING)

(MEN CHEERING LOUDLY)

AETHELWULF:
One day will come a reckoning.

It is just not possible
to imagine a world

in which there is both
one god and several.

One of us must be right.

The Lord sayeth, "I am the way,
the truth, the light."

(MAN SPEAKING IN NATIVE TONGUE)

(SPEAKING ENGLISH)
He says that the armies of
my uncle and younger brother

are already assembled
up river.

They wait for us.

We will soon be in Mercia,
and you must fight for me.

And if you are victorious,
I promise that

I shall give you something
worth more than land or riches.

-(ARROW SWISHING)
-(GRUNTS)

(ARROWS WHISTLING)

Shield!

MAN 1: Get down!

MAN 2: Keep rowing!

-Row!
-(GASPS)

Was that your god, or mine?

-(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)
-(GASPS)

(INDISTINCT YELLING)

Whose Army is that?

They belong
to my uncle Brihtwulf.

And that?

KWENTHRITH:
My brother Burgred.

(INDISTINCT YELL)

That is a considerable force,
father.

ROLLO: If you want
to change your mind, brother,

now is the time!

(ECBERT SPEAKING IN
NATIVE TONGUE)

(ATHELSTAN IN ENGLISH)
King Ecbert says that
all this land is yours,

from here to the horizon.

There are many farms
on this land for you

to take possession of.

(ECBERT SPEAKING IN
NATIVE TONGUE)

(TRANSLATING IN ENGLISH)
He wants us to live in peace.

For that is the future
for all of us now.

(SIGHS)

The forces on the right bank

are much smaller
than those on the left.

And as far as I can see,
there is no bridge.

There is no way the two armies
can easily re-join.

We attack your uncle.

Now stay out of our way.

Sound the horn.

(HORN BLOWING)

Concentrate the full attack
on the right bank.

(YELLING COMMANDS)

BRIHTWULF: They're turning
towards us. Sound the horns!

(HORNS BLOWING)

MAN:
Row!

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

Why are they
just attacking my uncle?

MAN: All to the shore!

-(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)
-Prepare for Battle!

BURGRED: Don't just stand and
stare. Fire at them!

Archers!

Draw!

Loose!

I cannot help him.
