(IF I HAD A HEART PLAYING)
2
00:01:12,220 --> 00:01:14,851
We'll stay here.

00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:16,166
ASLAUG: No, stop.
4
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,411
I'm not staying there.
It looks disgusting.
5
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,484
Princess, it will be
winter soon enough.
6
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,605
If we have nowhere to live,
no roof over our heads,
7
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,809
no hearth fire to warm us,
we will all perish.
8
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,163
Surely we can find
some Earl's hall,
9
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:36,209
somewhere more
inviting and comfortable.
10
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,930
For my children.
11
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,881
And if we are to
find such a place,
12
00:01:43,960 --> 00:01:44,927
it would only take
a few days
13
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,691
before someone took the
news to Jarl Borg.
14
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,204
We will survive this.
15
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,442
Believe me, you and
I can survive this.
16
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,284
It will make
you stronger.
17
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,044
It will make your
sons stronger, also.
18
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,802
BORG: People of Kattegat,
welcome.
19
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,969
Let me introduce myself.
20
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,927
I am Jarl Borg of Götland,
your new ruler.
21
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,288
I promise you I only came
here to seek justice.
22
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,091
Earl Ragnar broke his sacred
promise he made to me
23
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,764
and therefore,
by our laws,
24
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,002
he forfeited
the right to rule.
25
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,807
You will find me a fair ruler.
26
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,169
Kattegat is an important trading
station and I mean to see it flourish.
27
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,245
If you all cooperate and work with
me, we shall have no problems.
28
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,885
Of course,
I will want my wife,
29
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,610
more of my own people
to join me here,
30
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,321
but that should not disturb you.
We will all be one family.
31
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,200
There will be no
protest against my rule.
32
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,931
And there will be no
law here except mine.
33
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,088
Whoever will deliver me the
whereabouts of Ragnar's wife,
34
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,448
his children
and his brother,
35
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,645
will be paid his or her own
weight in silver and gold.
36
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,561
From now on, only criminals
will talk of Ragnar Lothbrok.
37
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,486
To all intents and purposes,
Ragnar Lothbrok is dead.
38
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,084
Why have you come?
39
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,166
I've come to ask
you some questions.
40
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,810
Not too many.
41
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,361
I have no time to
answer too many.
42
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,848
Then tell me this,
wise one.
43
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,891
Did you foresee
what has happened here?
44
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,727
And if so, did you
warn the people?
45
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,371
I see what the gods
allow me to see,
46
00:04:25,840 --> 00:04:28,241
and say what they
allow me to say.
47
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,284
Then you saw nothing?
48
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,410
Or you said nothing?
49
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,042
Do you have any
other questions?
50
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:54,045
I'd like to know
what will happen to me.
51
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,404
If, that is, the gods
will allow you to see.
52
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,850
Yes, I can see.
53
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,365
And I see an eagle.
54
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,566
I see that an eagle
hovers over you.
55
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,723
But I also see that you
yourself are the eagle.
56
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,083
An eagle is a good sign.
57
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,921
Always, in the sagas,
a good sign.
58
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,608
An eagle, a soaring bird.
59
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,447
A good sign from the gods.
60
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,604
Is it not true, old man?
61
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,365
Yes, I see an eagle,
62
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,483
and the eagle is
your destiny, Jarl Borg.
63
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,804
EDMUND: Sire, if we
continue to do nothing,
64
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,649
their depredations
will only spread.
65
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,327
They've not removed themselves nor
yet sailed away, as we all prayed.
66
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,961
Your army is collected, Sire,
and awaits your orders.
67
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,480
They expressed
the desire to talk,
68
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,644
so, first, we should talk.
69
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,643
How are we to
trust men like these
70
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,441
who kill without conscience, who
desecrate and pollute sacred places?
71
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,090
No, we cannot
trust them.
72
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,482
Therefore, there will be an exchange
of hostages before we begin.
73
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,131
And who are we to deliver
into their tender care?
74
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,207
My son, Aethelwulf.
75
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:51,681
Father?
76
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,843
A hostage of the highest
value is the safest hostage.
77
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,284
But I will not
deliver you to them
78
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,408
until they have
first delivered to me
79
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,608
a hostage of equal
value to themselves.
80
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,522
They are savages, heathens. They
do not put a value on any life.
81
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:06,681
ECBERT: Oh, I...
82
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:09,009
I doubt that.
83
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,045
We are Christians, but not so
long ago we were also pagans.
84
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,441
And when we were pagans,
85
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,364
do you think we cared
nothing for our families?
86
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,245
Our children?
87
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,127
But I swear
to you, my son,
88
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:29,683
I would never surrender you without
your blessing and agreement.
89
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,041
Father, you know
the answer to that.
90
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,882
I place myself
in your hands.
91
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,044
I am at your disposal.

so thin, so sickly.

We can talk together

Why do you
not go home?

about treasure.

want to see how you farm them.

l am really a farmer.
140

Are you saying that if I offer you
some land, we could make a deal?
141
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:13,530
It's possible.
142
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,571
But I would want
something in return.
143

you trust him, this Christian?

in return.

to speak with this

make some deal to our advantage.

speak their language.

communicate?

Athelstan, to remain with me,

he can do
the talking.

For you know my family
better than anyone.

You've always said how
important these contacts are
183
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,566
for the future and prosperity
of all your people.
184
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,211

Ragnar will come back.
199
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,571
He will come back to fight for
his lands, and we must help him.
200

We can't.
201

Earl Sigvard's quarrel.
202

At least to do battle.
212

But perhaps
enough to torment.
213
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,083
We have to make
sure that Jarl Borg
214

never feels secure
in his inheritance.
215
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,481
We can mount raids on his

to do with Ragnar Lothbrok,

to do with Ragnar.

I don't want to talk

00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:13,690
Thank you, Helga.
357
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:15,405
(CHUCKLES)
358
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,650
Let's have a child.
359
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,524
If we survive,
let's make a child.
360
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:24,725
(GIGGLES)
361
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:27,771
I'm serious.
362
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,881
You can't laugh
about everything.
363
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,449
Don't you
want a child?
364
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:37,481
I do.
365
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,604
I would be worried that my
child would be like me.
366
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:49,410
Why would that
worry you?
367
00:35:52,240 --> 00:35:53,810
Oh, sweet Helga,
368
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,642
there are just things
you do not understand.
369
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,408
Let's put them to bed.
370
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,046
Ragnar.
371
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:11,766
(GROANS)
372
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,683
I was afraid that I would
never see them again.
373
00:36:57,720 --> 00:37:00,041
I always knew
you would find us.
374
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,085
(SIGHS DEEPLY)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)
376
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,847
No, we cannot have sex.
Not for three days.
377
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,329
No more prophecies.
378
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,480
Just want to feel
the warmth of it,
379
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:33,730
the heat of it.
380
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,530
SIGGY: Rollo is back.
381
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:42,770
Hello, brother.
382
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:46,371
Welcome to this
shithole we call home.
383
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,205
Shall we talk?
384
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:01,962
I want to attack
Kattegat. Now.
385
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:03,929
I want to
destroy Jarl Borg.
386
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,482
I want to make him suffer as
he has made my family suffer.
387
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,446
I want to kill that madr
strodinn with my bare hands.
388
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,727
Then I must be frank
with you, brother.
389
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,723
I know you lost
boats in the storm,
390
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,485
but it's a pity you didn't
return with more men.
391
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,688
As it is, we have no chance
of defeating Jarl Borg,
392
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:21,886
or regaining Kattegat.
393
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,843
Then we find more men.
There are no more to find.
394
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,729
Believe me,
l have tried.
395
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:28,967
And what's more, is that
news of your arrival
396
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,850
has only made our
discovery more certain.
397
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,444
Jarl Borg has placed a
fortune on your head.
398
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,487
BORG: I am happy that
Ragnar Lothbrok has returned.
399
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,440
It will be a pleasure
to fight him.
400
00:39:10,240 --> 00:39:14,484
Yes, Ragnar Lothbrok enjoys a great
reputation amongst all our people.
401
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:20,683
He seems already like someone written
about in our stories, in our sagas.
402
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,966
He's like a great hero
from long ago.
403
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,201
And yet, here he is,
404
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:33,202
still alive
and not too far away.
405
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,125
Surely the gods
will reward handsomely
406
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:38,611
anyone strong
enough to defeat him.
407
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:41,962
After all, they have
never taken kindly
408
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,003
on those who
seek to join them,
409
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:47,690
pretending in their vanity
to be gods themselves.
410
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,482
Ragnar Lothbrok
is one such,
411
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,761
and his vanity
will kill him.
412
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:03,361
No.
413
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,410
Not his vanity.
414
00:40:07,240 --> 00:40:09,004
(SHOUTING)
I will kill him.

your destiny, apostate.

00:41:50,720 --> 00:41:52,165
You are being crucified
422
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:56,524
in the name of our Savior,
Jesus Christ. Amen.

MAN 2: Your Highness.
430
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,002
Must we really
kill this man?
431
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:24,724
He is an apostate.
432
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,282
He has denied our
Savior, Jesus Christ,
433
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,528
and returned to
pagan and evil ways.
434
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,046
He has murdered
good Christians.
435
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:33,731
I say he should die.
436
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,002
I say he should
be crucified.
437
00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:37,767
What do you all say?
438
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:41,367
ALL: Crucify him!
Crucify him!
439
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:43,601
Cut him down.
440
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,328
I said,
cut him down.

(GASPING)
442
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,324
Ragnar, they're here.
443
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:11,884
Ragnar, they're coming.
Who's coming?
444
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,361
Who do you think?
Jarl Borg and his men.
445
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,648
They've come
to finish us off!
446
00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:55,051
It has been a long time.
447
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:56,725
Hello, Ragnar.
448
00:44:02,720 --> 00:44:04,131
I heard of
your troubles.
449
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,046
I have brought these
warriors to help you.
450
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:17,601
And you are?
451
00:44:17,720 --> 00:44:18,846
I'm your...
452
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:21,926
Father.
453
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,243
I always knew in my heart
that I would see you again.
454
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,609
But l never guessed it would
be in such circumstances.
455
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,845
Who can guess the plans
and ways of the gods?
456
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,402
But now they have contrived
to bring us back together
457
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,960
and I, for one,
am glad for it.
458
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:51,401
Ha!
459
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,881
I do not need to ask
if you have been fed well.
460
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:57,610
You have grown
so tall.
461
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,802
When this is over, we shall
have many stories to tell.
462
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:08,120
You and I, Father, are bound both
by ties of memory and blood.
463
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,886
It seems your mother
and I have produced
464
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,651
a son that is
both strong and wise.
465
00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:27,762
And if my sister had lived,
she would have been the same.
466
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:30,001
Yes.
467
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,969
And you are right to carry
her memory, as do I.
468
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,128
For a long time, Father, I feel
I have carried nothing else
469
00:45:41,240 --> 00:45:43,208
but memories.
470
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,082
But now, here,
in this place,
471
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:51,364
with you and with my
mother, I feel reborn.
472
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,242
As if I have
a life to lead.
473
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,845
Far too long.
