[DISTANT VOICES WHISPER]

[INDISTINCT VOICES WHISPERS]

Sven?

Sven?

Come to my aid!

[BIRDS SING]

[WIND BLOWS]

[DISTANT THUD]

[MAN SNORES]

[MAN GRUNTS]

[MAN SNORES]

- Runa...
- Shh. I'm here.

Just try and go to sleep.

I can't.

I just keep thinking about him.

I know, I know.

[BIRDS SING]

[SHE SIGHS]

[RUNA]:
Mother?

[MAGNHILD]:
Yes?

[RUNA]:
I've not slept well lately.

[MAGNHILD]:
Are you ill?

Or troubled?

I'm having bad dreams,
almost every night.

Are you afraid of going
back to sleep?

[SHE SIGHS]
No.

I lie awake,
wondering what they mean.

[MAGNHILD]:
You sound just like your father.

And grandfather.

They used to dream a lot, too.

It brought nothing good.

This, too, will pass.

[RAGNVALD]:
Now, relax.

Just remember your breathing,
Runa.

Feel the calmness of the forest.

I am.

I hit it.

I heard you did.

Father was much better
when he was my age.

[RAGNVALD LAUGHS]

Is that what he told you?

Yes.

When Joar was your age,
he loved nothing more

than he loved
his bow and arrows.

He even kept it in bed with him
at night.

But did that make him better?

No.

Let the bow rest, Runa.

Do something else for a while,
something you truly enjoy.

[SHE SIGHS]
Well, I enjoy getting better.

You sound just like him.

[CROW SQUAWKS]

[HORSE SNORTS]

[TWIGS SNAP]

I can hear you.

Did I tell you about
that one time

when father scared away
an angry moose?

Mm. No, not that I can remember.

Father and I were out looking
for honeybees

when a big moose came out
of the leaves

right in front of us.

And I think
the moose was afraid, too

when he saw us

but he got angry and wanted
to hit us with his horns.

Do you know what happened next?

[RAGNVALD LAUGHS]

No. What happened next?

Father spread his arms
and shouted

and my ears almost fell off

and he's walking bravely
towards the elk

clapping his hands,
and look him dead in the eye.

- Scaring him away!
- Oh!

[HE LAUGHS]

Grandfather...

do you think Father is dead?

No. No, I do not.

But many die on raids.

And many come back.

Joar is delayed, that is all.

And when he does return,
remember he did this for us.

It has been two years.

Maybe we'll not recognise him
when he returns.

When I think of him

it's like I'm seeing
through water, or mist.

I went on two raids
when I was young.

All I wanted was to return
with a name and some wealth.

And that I did.

But it was hard-won treasure
I brought.

It didn't last long.

I had good eyes then.

And my aim was true.

And when I showed my silver
to Ylva's mother

she let your grandmother have me
for her husband.

My good eyes gave me that.

But then we settled down,
we had Joar and his sisters

and my eyes started to fade.

The Norns made my thread
that way.

That was the real price
for my happiness.

And I would gladly
sacrifice it again

if I was given the choice.

- Let's go inside.
- Yes.

[HE GRUNTS]

Oh...
[ HE GRUNTS]

[MAGNHILD]:
Runa.

Don't waste your love
on the horse.

We have to sell him.

[RUNA]:
But you can't sell Nattfari!

- [MAGNHILD]: Go out fishing.
- Mother!

Maybe we can all go and fish?

Come, Bothild.

[MAGNHILD]:
Bothild stays with me.

[INDISTINCT WHISPERS]

[SHE CHOKES]

[SHE SCREAMS]

[BOTHILD]:
What happened?

[RUNA]:
I fell.

Into the lake? How?

[RUNA]:
I just fell.

Nothing more.

So, don't worry.

[BOTHILD]: I wonder what Father
has seen on his journey.

He promised to bring back
something for me.

[RAGNVALD]:
If he's able

I know he will bring something
back for you, my dear.

[BOTHILD]:
I miss him.

[RAGNVALD]:
Yes, I know. We all do.

[RUNA]: Well, clearly
he's not missing us.

If he did, he would've found
a way back by now.

[RAGNVALD]:
Runa...

Or maybe he's cold in the ground

but no one wants
to talk about it.

[RUNA]:
Where is Mother?

Mother...

You're doing it again.

What?

Standing there,
not doing anything.

I cannot do a damn thing
in my own home

without you
complaining about it.

Do not deny it.

Just stop it.

Mother, what's happening?

You're not alone in this,
you know?

We're here, too, suffering
just as much as you are.

You do not know my mind, child.

Because you're silent
as a fucking stone!

Don't you dare
use that tone to me!

You're thinking of Father,
aren't you?

Don't you have chores to do?

They're done. How about yours?

Go outside.

Go to your sister.

No.

Go outside!

- I want to talk about Father.
- Go to your sister!

Because you never do anymore!

What do you want me to say?

That I miss him?

That I still love him?

Do you want me to say that
I believe that he'll come riding

on a pitch black stallion?

Well, he won't.

He won't! He has left us!

He has left us here to rot!

Like outcasts.

Can't you see that it's you
who has left us?

At least Father tried, but...

Maybe you, too, want to leave.

Then just go.

Take your bow, and go.

- And leave me here.
- [RUNA SNIFFLES]

- Where are you going?
- [RUNA]: Hunting.

[SHE SOBS]

[RUNA SINGS A TUNE]

Sometimes I think
I can see again.

Then I realise
it's all in my head.

The sounds of the woods.

The smell of...

leaves and flowers

and growing and rotting.

Birth and decay.

It's all so real to me, so...

close and strong.

I have lived a long time.

Soon I will rot and become soil.

And I really hope there will be
green moss growing in me.

Sweet, green moss.

And then maybe you can bring
some pork to my moss mound

and sing to my bones.

Do you see your own death?

[HE CHUCKLES]

No, I cannot see a damn thing.

But I refuse to die
until I have spoken to my son

one last time.

You are troubled?

I saw something today.

What did you see?

When I fell into the water,
it was like...

I was dreaming.

But... I know I was awake.

And you believe that
what you saw was an omen?

Yes.

Tell me.

I saw Mother, you and Bothild.

You know what?
It's probably nothing.

It's getting harder to remember
the more I try, so....

Are you sure it was nothing?

There was something else.

Afterwards, at the far shore.

I saw a flock of birds
lie dead on the ground.

But I can't understand why.

Bad omens and dead birds...

It sounds as if you hit
your head when you fell, Runa.

Do not start looking for omens
in everything you see.

It will only lead
to sadness and worries.

[HORSE SNORTS]

[BIRDS SING]

[HORSE WHINNIES]

[MAN RASPS]

Who goes there?

I mean no harm.

It's fine.

What's going on? Who's that man?

Go get Mother. Hurry.

[MAGNHILD]:
Bothild, stay!

A warrior.

Where did you find him?

In the far woods,
close to Narlunda.

We must save him.

[MAGNHILD]:
No.

He can barely move.
We must help him.

You should have left him
in the forest, Runa.

Take him back,
before he wakes up.

[RUNA]: Father would've been
ashamed if he heard you now.

[MAN INHALES SHARPLY]

His fever is very high.

He might die tonight,
or in a couple of days.

There is not much we can do.

But there's a chance
he might live.

I'm not sure.

Elderflowers can help.

Thank you.

Hide his weapons.

We'll put them
in the goat shelter.

It's empty, anyways.

I do not want him in the house.

[RAGNVALD]:
Who is he?

We don't know.

[MAN MURMURS]

What is he saying?

He said something about gold
on the way here.

I hope he will survive.

But the fever is a threat to him
if he's forced to sleep outside.

He looks like a travelling man.

Maybe he knows something
about Father.

Or he'll cut our throats
in our sleep.

Bothild, can you please
fetch me some water?

No, that's enough.
You don't go near him again.

[BIRDS SING]

[RUNA]: Freyja and Odin,
and with them, Tor

rode the grey steed, Sleipnir.

The horse that fell
and broke his bones.

The gods sat down beside him.

Blood to blood, they sang

and bone to bone,
the grey steed Sleipnir stood.

[MUFFLED VOICES]

[MUFFLED SCREAM]

[RAIN PATTERS]

[THUNDER RUMBLES]

- What's wrong?
- The man.

He's in pain.

[MAN SHIVERS]

[MAN GRUNTS]

Don't be scared.

But I think we should
bring the man inside.

[MAN RASPS]

[MAN INHALES SHARPLY]

Make sure he drinks some water.

I will.

[MAN GASPS]

[MAN SIGHS]

[BIRDS SING]

Where are you going?

[MAGNHILD SIGHS]
Going to the market.

Without us?

You must watch your sister.
She must not know.

[HORSE SNORTS]

Good boy.

My Nattfari.

Good health to you, Magnhild.

[MAGNHILD]:
And to you, Ketill.

[KETILL]:
So, here he is.

Hmm.

I was not sure you'd come.

Haven't seen you much
around the market lately.

People miss your furs and skins.

[HORSE SNICKERS]

[KETILL MUTTERS]

I almost began to believe
that the woods

had swallowed your family whole.

We've been busy.

I see.

Must be hard
with your husband gone.

- Does Ragnvald still live?
- He does.

Stubborn old goat.

Surely he will outlive us all,
don't you think?

I thought your daughters
would come.

No, not this time.

This was your husband's horse,
was it not?

- It was.
- [HORSE SNORTS]

[COINS JINGLE]

[MAGNHILD]:
I know you're sad.

But I sold the skins.

And I brought this for you.

- [BOTHILD]: Can I try it?
- [MAGNHILD]: Yes.

It's beautiful.
Thank you, Mother.

[RAGNVALD]: Did you remember
my pork, Magnhild?

[MAGNHILD]:
Anything for you, Ragnvald.

- Sweet man.
- Thank you.

[MAN]:
Are you blind, lord?

[RAGNVALD]:
I am.

- Are you thirsty?
- Yes.

[MAN GRUNTS]

Thank you.

[MAN GASPS]

Th... Thank you.

Thank you.

I am Torulf Ulfsson,
from Gallstadir.

[RAGNVALD]:
I'm Ragnvald Ingvarsson.

From this shithole.

Ragnvald?

I travelled with your son.

- You were with him on the raid?
- Yes.

Does he live?

Last time I saw him,
he was alive.

And that was just about
a week ago... give or take.

[RAGNVALD GASPS]

We're done with water now,
don't you think?

[RUNA]:
I could use some ale as well.

You must be Runa.

It was Runa who brought you here
and mended your wounds.

I'm in your debt.

Who did that to you?

It was my former shipmates.

[TORULF CHUCKLES]

But I shook them...
I shook them off.

Your shipmates?

There were 24 of us
when we left Akru two years ago.

First, we sailed across
the Eastern Salt

to Kurland

but we had no luck there.

Oh, we went far
on the rivers of Gardariki.

We traded with the locals.

They had strong defences,
so we kept the peace.

When winter came,
we served a lord as his guards.

And he paid in silver...
but it was not enough.

[TORULF GRUNTS]
We decided to take our leave...

Try our luck down in the south,
in the Slavic lands.

But others had been there
before us.

We went further down south...

and we came upon
a Frankish market.

And we fell over it
like hungry wolves.

[TORULF CHUCKLES]

How we were foolish men.

Poor, we'd never seen
such riches before.

So, we lost our heads.

We forgot to keep watch.
[TORULF LAUGHS]

We were ambushed by the Franks.

They were three times
as many as we were.

And they were well armed.

We fought for our lives,
there on the Frankish shores.

When we got away,
we barely had enough men

to man the oars.

We'd lost half of our men,
and all of our loot.

We would all have died
if it wasn't for Joar

and his bow.
[TORULF LAUGHS]

And then we set sail north.

And eventually we were back
to familiar shores.

We buried those who had died
from their wounds at sea.

That night, one of the crew
found a fallen tree.

With... roots sticking up
into the air.

Like fingers grasping
for the sky.

On those roots...

there hung big, fat
golden rings.

It was like a gift
from the gods.

We dug underneath the tree

and we found an old burial site.

A mound full of treasure.

Joar told us to....

Joar told us to leave it all
in the ground.

That it was a foul thing
to steal from the dead.

But we did not listen.

We divided the treasure
amongst ourselves

and in the end, not even Joar
could resist taking his share.

We slept that night,
dreaming we were kings.

In the morning...

everything had changed.

So, what happened?

Some of the men
started attacking one another.

Wanting all the gold
for themselves.

Joar and I, we fled.

But I was still wounded
from the battle with the Franks

so he told me to run ahead

and I did.

The bastards nearly caught me
anyway.

I took all my gold and silver
and I threw it into the mud.

That made them forget about me
for a while, I tell you.

And what happened to Father?

Later, I saw Joar.

And he was still unharmed.

He was keeping his pursuers
at bay.

Before we got separated,
he shouted at me.

And he told me to meet him here,
at his home.

He and I were the only ones
who knew how to get here.

Well... he has not returned yet.

Runa, what are you doing?

- I should go look for him.
- No! You're not going anywhere!

[RAGNVALD]:
Runa...

Your father knows these woods.

I believe he wants to make sure
he's not being followed...

before coming home.

Fine.

[MAGNHILD]: How do we know
that you're telling the truth?

That you won't betray us
the moment Joar

gets back with the gold.

Did you not lose your own share?

You're right.

It's wise of you
to ask me these things.

But when Joar returns, he will
tell you that I'm a friend.

He will tell you
that I can be trusted.

[RAGNVALD]:
There is one thing you can say.

Swear it... by your ring.

In the name of Tor

I swear...

that my words bear truth.

Now I think the two of you
should get some sleep

and leave these two broken men
to do what they do best.

Brag about yesterday

joke about today and...

forget about tomorrow.

[THEY LAUGH]

[RAGNVALD]:
What did he do then?

He ate the porridge.

It was his helmet, after all,
you know!

[THEY LAUGH]

That man was not a moron.

- My good friend.
- What?

I need to go outside
and find a tree.

I don't want to risk tripping
over any of the sleepers.

I can't see a damn thing
in here.

[RAGNVALD GRUNTS]

I need to find a tree as well.

If you... if you get to my age

you'll find that old men
need to pee quite often

during the night,
but this blind old man

did not want to trip and fall
over some sleeping women

so he... he built himself
a piss door.

[RAGNVALD GRUNTS]
Follow me.

[RAGNVALD GROANS]

- Ragnvald!
- [RAGNVALD LAUGHS]

Ragnvald...

[TORULF GRUNTS]

[TORULF YELPS]

[THEY LAUGH]

I'll... I'll save you, Ragnvald.

[THEY LAUGH]

Morning.

- You feel better?
- Yes, I do. Thanks to you.

And your family.

We have very little to spare.

If you can walk,
you can work for your food.

I will, gladly.

[RUNA]:
Good.

Then you should help me
with my chores.

You work hard for your family.

You're strong.

Joar knows that.

Your mother is...

Magnhild does her best.

She tries to keep you all
safe and sound.

I can tell.

Yeah, she's a sweet woman,
isn't she?

She's kind-hearted, polite,
generous...

All smiles and giggles.

[HE LAUGHS]

[SHE SIGHS]
Sometimes I feel like an orphan.

Bothild keeps playing
and singing but...

she is just as alone
in this world as I am.

Only, she doesn't realise it.

Mother lost it
when Father left.

Sometimes when we speak,
she just drifts away.

Just saying nothing,
hearing nothing.

Do you think she's stopped
caring about you?

No.

No, she's just sad and worried.

And she fears being unable
to provide for us.

And she fears
that I'll leave her.

Do you want to?

Hmm.

Have you said anything to her?

She knows that I need her
to be a mother.

You know, your father
talked a lot about you.

But he also told me that
you're very good with a bow.

[ARROW THUDS]

[ARROW THUDS]

You're good.

If you care to teach me some of
your tricks with that later

I'll teach you how to use this.

Maybe it's too soon.

I mean, you were bed-bound
just a few days ago.

Well, I'm not too weak
to work for you.

[TORULF CHUCKLES]

I get rusty like an old tool
if I refrain from practice.

[HE SIGHS]

Long grip.

You don't want... Yes.

You don't want to get hit
on your fingers.

And now, ready.

Side.

There.

You have the right mind for it.

Teach me more.

- [RUNA LAUGHS]
- Come on!

- You need to be faster.
- Alright, OK. Again?

[TORULF LAUGHS]

Come on!

[RUNA LAUGHS BREATHLESSLY]

[DISTANT CREAK]

Mother! Grandfather!

- Mother!
- What's wrong?

What?

- [TORULF]: Runa!
- [RAGNVALD]: Runa!

- What is happening?
- [MAGNHILD]: What's going on?

What's wrong?

[RAGNVALD]:
Can someone say something?

- Bothild! What?
- [RAGNVALD]: Speak!

[MAGNHILD GASPS]

[MAGNHILD SOBS]
Joar!

Joar!

[THEY LAUGH]

[HE GROANS AND LAUGHS]

Son...

My son has returned.

My son...

I feared the worst.

In my heart, I always knew
you'd come back.

[THEY SOB]

Blood brother.

[SHE SOBS]

[MAGNHILD]:
Torulf, can you make a fire?

Joar...

Come, let's make food.

[MAGNHILD LAUGHS]

Joar is back!

My love...

Can you see? We're rich!

[MAGNHILD LAUGHS]

Oh... My Joar!

[SHE GASPS]

[SHE CHOKES]

[BOTHILD]:
We want it...

Please...

I want it out...

Take it out.

Joar...

Don't feel shame.

We did what we had to do.

Now you're a rich man.
You've earned it.

Feels more like a burden
than a reward.

[TORULF]:
It should feel like a relief.

For you and your family.

And you saved my life.

When those arrows flew...

I've never seen archery
like that before.

- You should take pride in it...
- Torulf.

I believe Joar needs
some peace and quiet.

Alright.

How do you feel?

You look pale.

Woo!

Woo!

Are you well?

Something seems to have
scared away the animals.

Father seems... different.

You think so?

Yeah.

Something is bothering him.

He just got home.

He's been through a lot,
he's very tired.

No, it's something else.

What do you mean?

I don't know yet.

What happened?

Joar?

You need to speak now.

I cannot help you...

if you don't
tell me what's wrong.

Why do you want to be alone

when your family
has longed for you so much?

Please hold me.

[RAGNVALD SNORES]

[INDISTINCT VOICES WHISPER]

Now, go to bed.

[INDISTINCT VOICES WHISPER]

[WHISPERING FADES]

The best defence

is to not be where
your enemy's weapon is.

Now you try it.
Hit my leg.

See? You were exposed.
You need to be faster.

But it's not over yet.
Ah! Come on.

[THEY LAUGH]

Alright. Come on, then!

You need to defend yourself,
you know.

Come on, come on.

[MAGNHILD]:
Torulf?

How are your injuries?

Getting better for each day.

Good.

We would like you
to leave us now.

As you can understand, we need
to come together as a family.

And Joar... needs...

to get some rest

and put your adventures
behind him.

I hope you understand, brother.

I understand.

[HE SIGHS]

[JOAR]: You lost your share
of the treasure.

But you did not
lose your friend.

Brother...

Farewell.

May you have
a safe journey home.

Farewell, Toruf Ulfsson,
my friend.

You are welcome back
this winter.

For more good ale and...

old stories.

Of that I have no doubt,
Ragnvald...

my friend.

[RUNA]: I can't believe
they're sending you away.

You're not fully healed yet.

Don't worry about me.

Farewell, Runa.

I hope we meet again soon.

You've yet to teach me
how to master the bow.

Well, you're gonna need
two good arms for that.

[TORULF LAUGHS]

[TORULF]:
In time.

In time.

[THUNDER RUMBLES]

[THUNDER RUMBLES]

[KETILL]:
Joar! Brother!

You're back!

- Indeed I am.
- Back home.

- Hello.
- Hello.

[WOMAN]:
Nice to see you!

- Welcome.
- Thank you.

[VILLAGERS CHATTER]

[SIGRUN]:
Runa, is it not?

- Sigrun.
- I almost didn't recognise you.

Is your family here, too?

Yes, yes, they are.

Oh.

I haven't heard a single word

from the ones who went
on that journey.

Your father?

Did he return? Is he well?

Yes, he's back.

That's good news.

It must be great not being alone
in the woods anymore.

But I hear that you are good
providing for your family.

Hm?

Maybe things will change now.

Did Joar have any luck
on his trip?

- No... not really.
- Mm.

At least he's back.

Oh, I know someone
you should meet.

Remember my son, Ari?

He's grown up to be
a beautiful young man.

He's here somewhere.

Should go and get him
before some other

unmarried woman does.

Here, have some more.

- [APPLAUSE]

Birds... lay dead.

All over the crops.

But the worst part of it
was the stench.

It smelled of intestines and...

vomit... rotting flesh.

I almost puked.

My sister saw
something strange, too.

Further up north.

She says there was someone
amongst the trees, watching her.

She had her husband with her,
along with a good spear.

That didn't make the stranger
go away.

Nor did he say anything,
he just stood there, watching.

It was surely one of those
Christian priests.

They're very strange indeed.

And they seldom fuck,
I've heard.

It's no priest.

Both my sister and her husband
were scared

and they do not scare easily,
I tell you.

Suddenly, her husband ran
toward the man, spearpoint first

to scare him off.

But he just slowly
turned his back on them...

waiting.

[TORGISL]:
What happened?

The arse-digger
just stood there.

He was a mad man.

And he smelled, my sister said.

Smelled?

As if he was rotting.

[VILLAGERS CHAT INDISTINCTLY]

- [RUNA]: Grandfather, it's us!

Open the door!

[RAGNVALD]:
Get in! He may still be close.

What are you talking about,
Ragnvald?

Could it be the outlaws?

Or thieves trying
to steal the gold?

He had a nasty stench.

I almost threw up.

And he was dead silent.

Then he tried to break in.

Thanked be the gods
I was already drunk

or I would've wet my pants.

Was he alone?

I don't even know
if it was a "he".

[MAGNHILD]:
What?

[RAGNVALD]: Maybe it wasn't
a human being at all.

Don't speak like that, Ragnvald.
It brings bad luck.

It must have been an animal.

No! Look at the marks!

I would have liked
having Torulf here still.

We should take a look around.

Ragnvald.

Are you not eating?

[JOAR SIGHS]
I need to get out.

[DOOR SHUTS]

[ARROW THUDS]

[ARROW THUDS]

Father?

[ARROW THUDS]

Runa.

- My strong, brave daughter...
- Oh, stop.

I know there's something
you're not telling us.

I wish you would've stayed
with us.

I want my father back.

Not this stupid bag of gold.

That gold...

is land.

I needed to take this risk,
Runa.

There's no future here
for you or your sister

dwelling in these woods
like wolf and bear.

Well, now that you have
this bag of gold.

And yet you stand here as if
there is no sun in the sky.

I know you.

I know there's something
you're not telling me.

We did wrong...

stealing from that mound,
and now we suffer for it.

Maybe it's just in my head.

Nightmares.

Guilt.

Maybe I will feel better
in time.

Well, we have time.

Do not lose it.

He's gonna come back.

What...

Run!

[FAINT GROWL]

[MAN GROANS]

Run home.

When was Runa here?

[RAGNVALD]:
I don't know.

Oh, Bothild!

- Are you hurt?
- No.

What happened? What happened?

[TORULF]:
The Vikings are close.

What was that stench?

- Some kind of sickness?
- It was the shipmates.

- We need to leave.
- Leave?

- Where's Joar?
- He's left us.

- He's left?
- With the gold.

Of course! He was going
to give it to the Vikings

so they might leave us alone!

I gave them my gold.
They didn't care.

We can't stand a chance
running blindly into the woods!

They will round us up
like cattle!

Leave me here and go.

[RUNA]:
No!

No. We'll stay together
and fight.

- I just killed one of them.
- They're warriors, Runa.

Seasoned killers.

But now they're scattered.

They will take
everything we have.

- But will they...
- Will not stop there.

That's why we must leave
before they rally together.

There's that foul stench again.

[HE SNIFFS]

The two of you, go inside. Now!

I think I can hear them.

[INDISTINCT VOICES WHISPER]

[RUNA]:
This is madness.

I know when to stand and fight,
and when to be wise.

But right now
we have to be wise.

Run and get the axe
and the spear. Hurry!

[INDISTINCT VOICES WHISPER]

Let's get you on Nattfari.

Get in! Now!

[HE GRUNTS]

Close the door!

[VIKINGS GROWL]

Now we are trapped
like a moose in a pit.

[RAGNVALD PANTS]

We should all get drunk.

[RUNA]:
How many are they? A dozen?

[TORULF GRUNTS]

They are more
than they should be.

[RUNA]:
What do you mean?

We can't win this.

We can survive this!

We just need to make them
believe it's not worth the fight

that we have nothing left
to steal!

I think they already know
that we don't have

any more of the treasure.

They want revenge.

Revenge for what?

I saw Sven outside.

He handled the oar next to mine
for almost two years.

He was a friend.

Well, then talk to him!

Make him tell the others
to stop!

I don't think he can hear me
anymore.

Why?

- Speak!
- No!

Don't say it.

I saw him die, Runa...

by the mound...

the morning after
we found the treasure.

He was cut down
and he could not have lived.

They are aptrgangr.

They are draugr.

The living dead.

[INDISTINCT VOICES WHISPER]

I can't hear them.

Have they left?

- Father...
- He did not know.

Maybe he's still alive?

Maybe he saw what they were,
and ran away.

- [DOOR BANGS]
- [TORULF GRUNTS]

How did they manage
to find their way here?

It's the treasure!
They sense it!

Joar... All he ever did
was to save us.

All he ever did
was for our sake.

Move in!

they would've lit the house
aflame by now.

They don't want us
to get away that easily.

Don't speak like that
in front of Bothild.

[TORULF]: They're gathering
outside the door.

Close your eyes.

And stay close to me.

Soon...

we'll wake up
amongst the gods.

And Father will be there,
waiting for us.

[DOOR BANGS]

Go to Grandfather!

- [VIKINGS GROWL]
- [DOOR BANGS]

Valhall.
Sitting at Odin's table.

Sessrumnir,
and join Freyja's people.

There will be an abundance
of mead and ale

and nothing to fear.

It will all be over soon.

The ones who die in battle

will end up
in the Halls of the Gods.

You know this, Bothild.

In the Halls of the Gods...

there is music and singing
and beautiful crafts....

and friendly faces.

And there's pork...
and lots of it.

- [DOOR BANGS]
- [SCRATCHING ON DOOR]

[VIKING RASPS]

You all know I love you.

You have to get out
through the back door.

Now.

I can't leave you, brother.

Go with them.

I'll save you a good seat.

Come, Bothild.
Stay close to me.

Come.

The gods love the ones
who die fighting!

Let's honour him by surviving.

The bead.
Where's the gold?

We must throw it away,
where is it?

I'm sorry.

You swallowed it, didn't you?

You did what?

Father gave it to me.
