Original subtitles

The Vikings were known

throughout history

for their long fast ships --

- And the relentless

bariske trips.

When they are not torn

or exchanged goods --

- Was the farmers

and lived a quiet life.

Life was hard in the

hinterland and food was scarce.

One could not rely

on either a stranger

or one's neighbor.

I buried my past in this river.

My sweet memories

a perfect world --

- Were removed forever

on this mild summer day.

A world I never will see again.

The wise river promised

to preserve my secrets --

- So the memories never hurt me.

As my wife will wait

faithfully with our children.

When I travel to the world --

- I will drink with

noble men and kings.

And spend time with

thousands of beautiful

foreign women.

I get it so nice.

She would be my queen

when I was chief.

I missed her so much

my heart bleeding --

- As if a powerful

sword had it fully --

- As the icy river

in this melting summer.

I missed the good times

we had together. the

music. festivities --

- And the endless laughter

cascades. I heard

God whisper in the wind:

"Who is the great.

which hovers over

ground and absorbs water and forests?

Winners fear he but

deceiving no display --

- And trying to damage the sun. "

I give you Thors hammer

Recalling my honor.

Wear it always.

Take to your uncle

Rurik in the eastern country.

He will arrange for you.

Fear me not. my son.

I am a brother Timothy.

Where did you get?

West from.

Alone.

And you are? - Is not it equally?

You are a quiet type.

Silent and thoughtful

a warrior should be.

Brave and courageous in battle.

Mood Stuffed and happy

should any man be.

Until he meets his death.

And when you hear at

home? - There where

the sun rises.

It is a fine sword

you have there. -

My Dad's. He used it rarely.

Knife belonging to

my uncle. He was a real hero.

My old grandfather

gave me this knife.

He had visions like you.

He said that it uses

the properly. will

be a great chief.

I am in God's mission.

I asked Our Lord for

a sign and you showed up.

The gods are just leave now.

There has been something

terrible. right?

My God said in mountain

sermons: "Eye for

an eye and a tooth for a tooth."

But I tell you: Resist

not a bad man.

If someone finds you

on your right kindlaks

then repeat for the other kind.

Your God is not what

I saw. otherwise He

had not said so.

Who are you?

What would you. strangers?

Have an arrow through the heart?

I �yvind. chieftain

of this village. -

My brother likes to be chief.

I am Dagmar. I am

looking Rurik. You know him?

Follow me.

You. Leifs Sunday?

Hello. Come here. nephew.

I am your uncle Rurik.

You are alone? - They

are all gone.

You begin your training tomorrow.

You have much to learn

to catch me.

We DO provide Helgi a new name.

Those who destroyed

your town may not own

your country while you live --

. and we will not have

that word when it.

If I had one more Sunday

I would call him Oleg.

Oleg Oleg Oleg. It

is a beautiful name.

Yes. OLEG!

To build a good ship

must pass a straight oak.

And then share it

inch thick in the units.

Start from the shoulders

to the marshals.

Each plank seams to

keel with a small surplus.

You put a light inside

frame to stabilize the structure.

Concentration. Choose

your target on the tree.

Throw it not as a girl again.

My sister can do better.

You need to put more

force in the cast.

Imagine your worst

enemy and abortion as such here.

Do not let your imagination

run with you.

We are peaceful people.

- Why learn this?

Self-defense. To act

in remote areas is dangerous.

When you are in a battle

As part enemy lines in two.

So their defense will

be weakened. - Yes.

and it will create chaos.

Just when you tisser of a beehive.

Remember always predict

your opponent's next move.

See the constellation

there. The 3 stars

in an oblique line.

There is Orion's belt.

Good to navigate at sea.

An Arabic grocer told

me that Orion was a warrior --

- And no live creature

could kill him.

One day a small screw

into scorpion at him

and stuck him in the heel.

Thus died Orion.

So never underestimate

your enemy matter

how small they may be.

Put the sun compass

to show the direction

we are moving now.

East! - Excellent.

Now both in boys sailing at sea.

Remember boys. together

as one is in strong.

But separately.

The creation of the

9 worlds was done

by Muspell's flames --

- Which evaporated

the icy mist called Niflheim.

Out of the freezing

vapor hvirvlede a

evil frost giant and a major is-ko.

Koen slikkede snow

and created a god --

- Whose son-sons killed

frost giant --

- And formed the 9

worlds from its body.

One of his sons was

called son Odin.

Huge meat became Earth.

Its blood was to the oceans.

Bones were the mountains.

and his hair and teeth

were trees and stones.

Way to a man's heart.

The more you drink

the less remains you

are master of your wisdom.

Odin had two sons.

His yndlingss�n was

Balder. the beautiful --

- But he was blind.

so he manages the night.

His second-favorite

son was Thor. - Heaven

and Thunder God.

The strongest of them all.

Asgaard. one of the

9 worlds is the place

gods reigns.

A day comes Ragnarok

and there is total darkness.

World's end.

Odin. the mightiest

of all gods the war

and the death god.

After a battle gathers

war virgin markets.

Valkyrierne. your dead up --

- And takes them to

Odin's palace called Valhalla --

- Where your father

is waiting you.

I knew that �yvind

hated me because he

felt threatened --

- But wanted to one

days we would be friends.

Dagmar was a sweet girl --

- But I could never

love as I once did.

I look forward to sailing

down the river to Holmgaard.

Our products will

bring us fine craftsmanship.

As a Muslim silver.

And silk in exchange

for my walrus tusks.

I have heard that Holmgaard

have defined the slave women.

Where is Oleg?

See the mushrooms?

They are the road to hell.

I know it. Uncle.

You do not eat.

Shh. Mother Nature speaks to me.

In order to survive

even a hard winter

as the previous --

- We must increase

our wheat harvest.

I ask the King Halvdan

for something more rural.

Our neighbors are looking

for the same. Which

offer would you give this time?

Your oldest son? -

I had a vision. A warning.

Do not let your ability

take control. Trust

the life process.

But it was about these men.

Run coward. run.

My father is not happy

that you do not helping

to plan the trip south.

Before we take care

of new tasks we must

take care of the old.

You always sounds like

your friend the monk.

- And you talk when it is not appropriate.

Sit!

It will be some long

lonely months while you are away.

I take back with shiny

stones. almost as

beautiful as your eyes.

Everything I want is you.

The country east is

very fruitful. - I am too.

Lena?

Lena?

When I was older writers

were generally higher

and horrific images.

It only means were

the roots of hell.

I really love you.

Lena. - Do you?

You exhibit an energy

who refilled my soul

and my heart --

- As the melting ice

in early spring.

Oh. Lena. I ask you.

- On your knees.

I do not kneeling to anyone.

Your father does not

allow that we meet as we do.

He is affronted by

you do not ask for my hand.

You're the only woman

who has meant something

to me since I arrived.

You still have nightmares. right?

You have nothing to fear from me.

I do so wish you. Dagmar.

But not you once loved Lena!

The past is ... -

The key to the future.

Be patient with me. I am sorry.

She is gone fordijeg was a coward.

I did not want too

to be responsible

for Dagmars life.

Jesus has given us

a beautiful day not?

Oleg. My father wants you to come.

Come.

Only God knows what

the future brings.

Oleg. wait!

I must tell you something.

He said now!

I miss Oleg already

and he does not leave

until tomorrow.

Show strengthen my

child. I am by your side.

What consolation is

what Timothy; you

can not use a sword

No but I can pray.

When did it ever stopped

a spear or an ax?

I bear his son and

he knows it yet.

Outside of marriage?

- Judge me not with your faith.

But I thought you were his cousin?

No. My parents drowned

in a b�dulykke when I was a baby.

Rurik has raised me

as his own. - I wish

you and Oleg well.

I will keep an eye

on your return. the father.

With the many gifts I am sure.

Wealth is gone as

fast as a blink of the eye.

Why me always slams

you down in front of my father?

A true brother will

say things you prefer

not to hear.

With a brother like

you. I need no enemies.

It was at that moment.

I knew that �yvind

would never accept me.

I tried to talk sense

to him. My visions

warned me about

That one day he would

kill when he saw me in the face.

I suspected him that

I was a victim. I might be awake.

I have something I

MUST tell you. - When

I come back.

But ... - Oleg. NU

or remain a peasant.

After 7 weeks of sailing

I heard mermaids calling my name.

This area is very similar

our own homes.

Even better. - When we yonder.

About a week. First

we will stop to take

fresh stores in a small place --

- There are just a half days left.

Where is the village residents?

Where are they all

now? - All dead or

taken as slaves.

When? - For six days ago.

By whom?

Our new king. - New King?

He killed our old prevails

and conquered our country.

When our village could

not pay the required

sacrifices --

- He took his warriors

here to give us a

lesson and respect.

How can you respect

a king ravaging its own cities?

We tolerate no opposition.

Give the message further.

He let me live to

tell others about it.

Give this man food and mead.

And long boat? - Yes.

Rurik. I got a survey.

- Yet another pathetic dream.

Your dependence on

fungi becomes a fatal days.

Like your tongue.

- On whose hands?

A very quick one.

- I see no lightning.

You will not hear the

thunder. - Enough!

It was even a warning.

He is a strange one.

And always have been.

He has seen things

early in his life.

which most of us hope we never will.

OK?

I have been better ax throw.

One day you'll need

it. - To kill?

Our greedy neighbors

ravaging rural areas --

- And use the stolen

goods to offer to

King to acquire land holdings.

People owning only

what they can grow

or conquer with the sword.

Those of us who could.

fought valiantly to the end.

They gave me to survive

to tell others about

their methods.

More mead here.

On the edge. As my father.

The biggest farmer in the valley.

I will travel to exotic

heat places like the

uncle. Rurik.

Sail on the seas. enjoy

s�luften. act with

silk and silver --

- So I never have

to work in the fields.

With me by your side?

- When I become chief.

Lover you?

A chieftain never breaks

his promise. - Not

a word. Stay here.

Brothers sent us a

message. - Is it true?

Did they not the same

with our neighbors to the west?

We can not accuse them

without proof. - Are

these heads is not enough?

Speeches they? - Nay.

But they would be sure

you did not.

There is a chief meeting

next month. Let's

wait until then.

If these arrows are

not enough? - I say we wait!

Father. I will protect you.

Violence is never the

answer. my son.

When I realized that

my father was weak and scared.

And my uncle varst�rk

and courageous.

Lower your arms. until

further notice.

Since when is it you

giving orders?

Do as he says.

I Koll. king's envoy.

On his behalf. I have

the right to to act

and govern in his absence.

Greetings. - I am

from West Rurik.

We have come to act.

These are the merchants

I Rurik ... Yes. yes.

Well.

Here's a fine fox.

A beautiful Odder.

I've seen better.

We also bear and beaver

We also have some very

good amber. - Show

And what trade goods

shipping of goods.

Tonight you are my guests.

We drink good mead

by the king's dancers.

You just hit my weaknesses.

In the Night. - In the Night.

He resembles a weasel.

He sees not just as

a weasel. he behaves as one.

Guards. Put more guards

around the circumference.

You never.

For new friendships.

For the King. - For the King.

When we meet your king. - Soon.

Bowl for the King.

- For the King.

But we sail with the morning tide.

I. on my King's behalf.

requiring 3 day party

or the trade is canceled.

We appreciate your

hospitality but ...

To win the virgins

love talk with soft.

pleasing words. my son.

I give you Thors hammer

as proof of my honor.

Wear it always!

Rurik. I need some air. - Sure.

How you stole the necklace?

I stole it is not.

It was a gift. - Liar.

I cut your tongue out.

Cut my throat instead.

and free me from my misery.

You do not know what

misery is. - Who are

you to tell me that?

How did you get it?

Is it that interested you?

There are many similar

to. - Is everything okay?

Everything is as usual

Istan. Just as usual.

My thoughts ran faster

than my galloping heart.

Then the gods spoke again.

What wonder is it there

without I have seen

before Delling's door?

It calls for men and

swallow up the light.

wolves and searching for ever to win it.

I have an important

message to the king.

Drugstores have arrived.

3 ships from the old country.

They arrived earlier

than expected. - Who leads them?

He named Rurik. Your

Majesty. - I have

heard the name before.

Leave the camp!

What Mother Nature tell you?

Bad times ahead.

Oleg? - Yes.

Follow me.

You would see me?

Why you asked about

my past? - You reminded

me of one.

Yes? - I was wrong of necklaces.

Hello! Hold on.

You said you gave it

to one? - How did

you get this old collar?

It was a gift. - From whom?

A brave warrior nice.

For the longest time

taken to Valhalla.

Was it a boy who gave

you this? - Who said

it was a boy?

How you knew?

Lena?

I have not heard the

name for a long time.

- Are you my Lena?

Is this yet another

nightmare? - For me it was.

They have the courage to appear.

Hello my good neighbor.

Those who stole your

horses were trying to sell them to us.

And who were they?

We got them to. Uh ... disappear.

What coincidence last

night was here two strangers.

I got their headers to disappear.

As your good neighbors.

brings us your stolen

animals back nicely.

Are you afraid of the

king will give us

more farmland. Askold?

Friends. let us smooth

out our quarrels.

Exchange of gifts

bind us in friendship --

- If they are given a true heart.

You must be friends

with its neighbors

And the lies of lies.

- Let us strengthen

our friendship in the evening.

We come with fresh

mead. - And we will

waiter you well.

As we meet tonight.

Entertain them?

I do what is best

for our village.

These men would pick

us by ravens on a corpse.

Peace is survival.

If it means feeding

ravens. let it be so.

I take my nephew out

on foxhunting in evening.

I do not like feathers in their mouths.

Come Helgi.

Beware of bears. -

Yes. And you. passport

even in wolves!

It is on the hunt.

I drive it back.

Stay here. Block the entrance.

When he tries to enter.

so kill him.

How was Miklagaard?

The largest most exotic

marketplace in the world.

But the eight-week

voyage and difficult

places to cross the country with the ships.

What lovely women there.

Slave! More mead!

Very nice. How old are you?

She does not speak

our language yet.

She is a little too

old. but she can be used.

Rurik told me that

the King is a tough negotiator.

He also said the Vikings

considered wild.

Neej.

What a strong type.

- It's Lena. engaged to my son.

Cheers. - Bowl.

There is no confidence

and unconditional loyalty.

Well done. Helgi.

There is something

wrong. Leave the fox here.

Promise me you'll be

here. Lov it. - I come with you.

Give me your word

you will be here! Your words!

Well!

Where is your son?

Bring us his head.

I never forgave myself

for that leave my father --

- When he took the last breath.

How save you your little weasel?

We go on a ship to the east.

Heat briser and lots of gold.

Your father wants you to come.

You'd better hurry.

otherwise he will

leave without you.

Looking for someone?

We tolerate no opposition.

Say it on.

Bloody young. Your

head on my thumb.

Meet your father in Valhalla.

Did you get him. -

Yes. here is the blood

as evidence.

Good. because if he

lives. he traps our minds.

Skrolingen took my thumb.

A small price to pay

for their country.

I see that we have

taken some beautiful slave girls.

Maybe I will make her

for my own personal mavedanser

For Thor! - For Thor!

With our latest offer.

Kong must give us

Halvdan Leif's country.

And this is just the

beginning. Now we move east.

Where there is heat briser --

- High thin trees

with large leaves as eyebrows --

- And women with skin

As bl�dsom silk.

For Miklagaard. For Miklagaard.

Helgi?

That's your uncle Svein.

You could. fought

bravely to the end.

They gave me just to

survive tell others

about their methods.

Look at me.

Take to your uncle

Rurik in the eastern country.

He will arrange for

you and educate you as a warrior.

Wept not. Warriors do not cry.

Take this.

One day you'll need

to trap their heads

of Askold and Dir.

Your father and I

will wait for you in Valhalla.

I was a coward. -

We were only children then.

My legs would not move.

- It could not be prevented.

So he is here? Askold?

He is coming soon with his army.

Your men bear no comparison.

Do away with the same.

I ask you to take me. Take me.

Out in an evening outing.

again? I follow you back.

What was it with the grocery?

Last night I saw a

girl from my old town. Lena.

It is many years ago.

Are you sure?

She was lead-dancer.

Askold is their king.

It was he who destroyed

the my old town!

I saw Odin and Thors faces.

They said the same

thing again and again.

"Ragnarok".

World's End? You hallucinerer

again.

It was even a warning.

Let us go now and protect

our products. - No.

We build commercial contacts.

To go outside to meet

the King would be

a mistake and an insult.

But what if Oleg is

right? - Nonsense!

Think if it was her.

- Askold is not an uncommon name.

Get some rest and meet

us at the party. boards

but nothing about where you come from.

And do not attempt

to revenge. I have spoken!

Get some sleep.

So this is my son. Oleg.

I have had a long journey I hear.

One must travel far

before he has the wisdom

to look into another's heart.

And where will your

travels take you?

Our roots are here now.

I Dir and this is King Askold.

Acted in good with

my ruler. Koll? - Right well.

Much easier to handle

than to devastate. not?

Why are not I a few

days? We are good hosts.

It is said that guests

never must wear their

hospitality.

Trust never a word

warrior if his brother

is your enemy.

Or if they have killed

your family.

You look familiar.

- I've seen you before. long ago.

You killed the boy

never did you? You

never saw him dead?

Well. what do you think

about that ply Rivers

east of your uncle Rurik.

Rurik is his name. right?

I have good memory.

but can not remember

where I heard the name before.

Is not she amazing?

Why keep your private

meetings with my dancer?

It is very disrespectful

with your host.

Your majesty. my son

did not know --

- That she is their

personal dancer. he

also hallucinerer.

Show him the mushrooms. Oleg!

Now!

I have to teach her manners again.

I have an emergency

message your sovereignty.

I have some cases

I must look for elsewhere.

I welcome good-bye.

We must return to our

ships. We sail at high tide.

Oh no. Stay! I have

special plans for

tomorrow's celebrations.

We will come back soon.

Violence is never the

answer my son.

Resist not a bad man

If someone finds you

on your right kind

then repeat for the other kind.

One day you'll need

to trap their heads

of Askold and Dir ...

Russia drugstores even

leave at high tide ...

We must attack now

before the man comes

to our heads.

Moreover. I will not

lose 3 Light ship loads.

King plans attacking

before high tide.

Slaves. peasants and

warriors who are loyal

to the king about it.

They help you to Askold's

army. Prepare your

defense immediately.

Prepare for battle!

Dan battle lines! - All. Hold on!

Who believes in this

slave girl who are

loyal to the king?

She is one of our.

- It is personal. not true?

They killed your parents

and now you will have revenge.

We give them the goods

and take away. And

come back with a bigger army.

Also try than to be

called a coward.

You are like a brother.

but you will not be next time.

Nobody wants war.

But to understand the

immediate necessity

to ensure our freedom.

Move!

Ulf. Bjorn. Tag archers

and run against their midst.

We share their lines

into 3 smaller and

forcing them into the woods --

- Where we have a better chance.

He who sees death bravely

in the eye is dying well.

So we meet again. Helgi.

That moment kept me alive.

As far as I remember

Helgi was a coward.

Hidden behind a tree

and urinated himself.

Die!

Like your wife and children.

Where is your son?

Behind every tree the

rest of your life.

Last night. I am perhaps

in Valhalla and partying

with Thor.

While you. scum the

earth. to descending to hell --

- And become a ghost forever.

It was the last your

father said. just

before I killed him.

Take a last look your

lovely Lena.

Neeej!

Die!

Uncle Rurik?

Ensure good for our people.

A chieftain never breaks

his promise.

Battle was won. but

I had lost nearly everything

else --

I had left Midgaard

in this human world.

I could never why

greed and power --

- Could lead to the

slaughter of innocent people -

- And why revenge could

relieve the pain of

grief and anger.

Remember when we were

children and you rescued

me from the hungry wolves?

When I returned the

damn mushrooms --

- God showed me pictures

peace and love.

I knew the ladies

were now in safety --

- And I felt relieved

to first time in my life --

- Because I knew that

one day we would be

reunited in Valhalla.

I missed you so much.

I bear your son.

My son? - Yes. What

should we call him?

Ingmar. - Ingmar.

The name I like.

Tell me about the trip.

- It is a long history.

I have all this time

is in the world.

I no longer have nightmares.

I have been by my father.

I have dreams of wealth

and hope for my people --

- And the you need courage.

And against is better

than power from a sword.

What do you Oleg?

- Future. The past ...

And the present.

Oleg the "show" and his people --

- Joined trading posts

in the eastern rivers --

- And created the basis

for what later became Russia.
