to receive your summons.

16
00:01:23,709 --> 00:01:24,752
Is it really true

17
00:01:24,835 --> 00:01:27,964
that you want us all to vote
for a king of all Norway?

18
00:01:29,257 --> 00:01:30,675
If it wasn't true,

19
00:01:30,758 --> 00:01:34,428
I wouldn't have wasted your time
by summoning you here.

20
00:01:35,179 --> 00:01:38,683
You are asking us all to renounce

21
00:01:38,766 --> 00:01:41,560
that which is most dear
and precious to us...

22
00:01:42,728 --> 00:01:43,854
Our power.

23
00:01:44,313 --> 00:01:46,649
Oh, thorkell,

24
00:01:46,983 --> 00:01:51,612
your power resides in your prestige,

25
00:01:51,696 --> 00:01:54,907
in the willingness
of your warriors to fight

26
00:01:54,991 --> 00:01:56,325
and die for you.

27
00:01:56,409 --> 00:01:57,743
That will not change.

28
00:01:58,077 --> 00:02:01,872
All I am asking,
that there should be an overlord,

29
00:02:02,248 --> 00:02:05,543
to whom we could all owe our allegiance.

30
00:02:06,168 --> 00:02:09,964

31
00:02:10,214 --> 00:02:12,466
from all external forces.

32

You're here.

39

But why?

40
00:02:59,430 --> 00:03:00,890
I had a dream, lagertha.

41
00:03:02,058 --> 00:03:04,018
And in my dream,
your village was attacked.

42
00:03:04,852 --> 00:03:06,145
So, I wanted to be with you.

43
00:03:06,729 --> 00:03:08,314
You and torvi's children.

I was afraid
that something had happened.

47
00:03:17,823 --> 00:03:18,866
It was my fault.

48
00:03:19,075 --> 00:03:20,701
I did not protect him.

49
00:03:20,785 --> 00:03:21,786
I failed.

With all the others
who also died in the raid.

52
00:03:31,379 --> 00:03:32,755
So it's true?

53
00:03:32,838 --> 00:03:35,716
Your dream? Yes.
We were attacked by bandits.

54
00:03:36,634 --> 00:03:38,677
The same bandits
that bjorn branded and released.

55
00:03:38,761 --> 00:03:40,513
Then perhaps bjorn made a mistake?

56
00:03:40,596 --> 00:03:41,698
He should never have released them.

We all make mistakes,

In any case,

60
00:03:50,356 --> 00:03:52,066
it is not important anymore.

61
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,568
What's important is that I am certain,

62
00:03:54,652 --> 00:03:56,737
since they did not manage
to steal our grain,

63
00:03:56,821 --> 00:03:58,531
that they will attack again soon.

64
00:04:00,282 --> 00:04:02,034
It is a good thing that we are here.

65
00:04:03,035 --> 00:04:04,161

71
00:04:22,763 --> 00:04:25,641
Perhaps that lagertha is already dead.

72
00:04:28,144 --> 00:04:29,562
I buried her myself.

73
00:04:31,355 --> 00:04:32,982
Then I had to dig her up again.

74
00:04:34,358 --> 00:04:35,901
But she is not the same.

00:12:04,808 --> 00:12:07,519
But I too have heard stories
of thorkell the tall

187
00:12:07,603 --> 00:12:09,396
and his brothers
herring and Earl sigvald.

188
00:12:10,355 --> 00:12:12,858
In a country such as ours,
as small as ours,

189
00:12:13,650 --> 00:12:14,693
fame spreads easily.

190
00:12:14,776 --> 00:12:16,361
So they say, bjorn Ironside.

191
00:12:16,862 --> 00:12:21,783
So, the plan is for all of us
to appoint you as king?

192
00:12:22,034 --> 00:12:24,870
Elect him as king, elect.

193
00:12:25,287 --> 00:12:26,622
That is our way.

194
00:12:26,705 --> 00:12:29,875
In which case, king olaf, I insist
that it must be a real election.

195
00:12:30,542 --> 00:12:34,630
And that anyone else, be he a king,
or even a simple jar! Like me,

196
00:12:34,713 --> 00:12:36,256
can also stand, if they wish.

197
00:12:37,341 --> 00:12:39,801
[Sighs] In principle, yes.

198
00:12:40,469 --> 00:12:44,640
But you know how we Norwegians are.

199
00:12:45,307 --> 00:12:48,393
You give them a chance
to quarrel and to fight,

200
00:12:48,477 --> 00:12:51,480
and then they will quarrel and fight.

201
00:12:52,397 --> 00:12:54,483
Still, jarl thorkell has a point.

202
00:12:54,983 --> 00:12:56,276
Yes. And I agree with him.

203
00:12:56,944 --> 00:13:00,197
Personally, I would never want to
be made king in an uncontested election.

204
00:13:02,366 --> 00:13:04,076
I have no desire to wear a hollow crown.

205
00:13:08,497 --> 00:13:10,958
As you wish, bjorn Ironside.

206
00:13:12,042 --> 00:13:13,251
As you wish.

207
00:13:14,461 --> 00:13:16,546
- [People shouting]
- [Grunting]

208
00:13:16,630 --> 00:13:18,298
[People cheering]

209
00:13:38,276 --> 00:13:39,903
Bjorn Ironside.

210
00:13:43,323 --> 00:13:45,075
Jar! Hrolf.

211
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,160
[Kisses]

212
00:13:48,745 --> 00:13:50,038
Welcome.

213
00:13:51,373 --> 00:13:53,583
I hope we have the opportunity to talk.

214
00:13:53,792 --> 00:13:55,669
I hope so too, bjorn Ironside.

215
00:13:56,712 --> 00:13:59,047
Really, I do.

216
00:14:05,804 --> 00:14:07,222
Ah, king hakon!

217
00:14:07,389 --> 00:14:09,224
[Hakon] Bjorn Ironside.

218
00:14:09,433 --> 00:14:10,559
You don't know this,

219
00:14:10,642 --> 00:14:13,353
but I fought beside you
and your father at the gates of Paris.

220
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:14,771
Ah! [Chuckles]

221
00:14:15,355 --> 00:14:16,355
I was a young man then,

222
00:14:17,024 --> 00:14:18,400
and I still had a right hand.

223
00:14:19,151 --> 00:14:20,569
Yeah, what happened to your hand?

224
00:14:20,694 --> 00:14:23,071
In a sea battle against him...

225
00:14:23,321 --> 00:14:24,656
Thorkell the tall.

226
00:14:25,198 --> 00:14:26,533
I was boarding his ship.

227
00:14:27,242 --> 00:14:28,618
The deck was slippery.

228
00:14:28,702 --> 00:14:30,370
I put out my hand to steady myself,

229
00:14:31,371 --> 00:14:33,290
and somebody took
the opportunity to remove it.

230
00:14:33,915 --> 00:14:35,125
[Chuckles]

231
00:14:35,584 --> 00:14:37,919
But now it seems
we never have to fight again.

232
00:14:38,128 --> 00:14:39,463
Not against each other.

233
00:14:39,921 --> 00:14:41,423
Why fight our own countrymen?

234
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,133
It's what we've always done.

235
00:14:43,258 --> 00:14:45,260
That doesn't make it right or sensible.

236
00:14:45,469 --> 00:14:47,429
The fact is, we need to unify Norway

237
00:14:48,263 --> 00:14:50,682
to withstand possible attacks
from our larger neighbors,

238
00:14:50,766 --> 00:14:52,350
like Sweden or Denmark.

239
00:14:52,768 --> 00:14:55,562
I agree, it does make
some sort of sense.

240
00:14:55,896 --> 00:14:59,191
And to have a figurehead like you,
bjorn Ironside, huh?

241
00:14:59,274 --> 00:15:00,525
Son of ragnar,

242
00:15:00,609 --> 00:15:02,861
who is known and respected
throughout our viking world.

243
00:15:03,987 --> 00:15:05,572
Makes even more sense, I have to say.

244
00:15:07,449 --> 00:15:08,533
You have my vote,

245
00:15:09,284 --> 00:15:10,702
bjorn Ironside.

246
00:15:10,869 --> 00:15:11,869
[Kisses]

247
00:15:15,916 --> 00:15:17,918
Two more ships have just arrived.

248
00:15:18,585 --> 00:15:21,755
Who knew there were
so many kings and earls in Norway?

249
00:15:22,214 --> 00:15:24,841
It seems that they...
They grow on trees.

250
00:15:25,050 --> 00:15:27,344
Yes. Let me greet the newcomers.

251
00:15:27,427 --> 00:15:30,222
I can explain our purpose
as well as you do.

252
00:15:31,181 --> 00:15:32,307
Thank you, my friend.

253
00:15:39,231 --> 00:15:41,274
[Horses neighing]

254
00:15:41,775 --> 00:15:42,855
[Men shouting indistinctly]

255
00:15:51,243 --> 00:15:52,452
My prince.

256
00:15:52,661 --> 00:15:54,037
I'm sure you can hear me.

257
00:15:54,830 --> 00:15:57,124
But you are probably counting
all the furrows

258
00:15:57,207 --> 00:16:00,252
in the lands and the clouds
in the sky that belong to you.

259
00:16:01,711 --> 00:16:03,421
But I want to talk of something else.

260
00:16:04,422 --> 00:16:09,052
I want to ask you if you would like
to play a trick on poor dir.

261
00:16:11,847 --> 00:16:14,266
[Igor] What kind of trick,
my dear boneless?

262
00:16:14,850 --> 00:16:17,352
Something that will amuse you, I hope.

263
00:16:17,978 --> 00:16:19,479
I like to be amused.

264
00:16:19,980 --> 00:16:21,439
Is it a magic trick?

265
00:16:22,190 --> 00:16:23,859
I like magic tricks.

266
00:16:24,151 --> 00:16:25,527
Yes. It's a magic trick.

267
00:16:25,986 --> 00:16:26,986
What do you say?

268
00:16:27,362 --> 00:16:29,322
Would you like to help me do it?

269
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,452
What are we going to do, my fellow king?

270
00:16:35,537 --> 00:16:36,537
[Chuckles softly]

271
00:16:50,927 --> 00:16:52,179
Guards.

272
00:16:58,727 --> 00:17:00,854
Don't just stand there gawking.

273
00:17:01,271 --> 00:17:02,772
Let's see what she's up to.

274
00:17:03,398 --> 00:17:04,608
[Guard] Who is she?

275
00:17:19,706 --> 00:17:20,749
Help me.

276
00:17:24,377 --> 00:17:25,377
[Grunting]

277
00:18:09,506 --> 00:18:11,383
[Grunting]

278
00:18:45,292 --> 00:18:46,459
[Man shouting indistinctly]

279
00:18:46,543 --> 00:18:48,420
- Guards!
- [Man] Guards!

280
00:18:48,545 --> 00:18:50,088
[Men shouting indistinctly]

281
00:18:51,256 --> 00:18:52,256
[Grunts]

282
00:18:54,050 --> 00:18:55,468
[Alarm bell clinging]

283
00:19:01,099 --> 00:19:02,267
[Guards clamoring]

284
00:19:16,323 --> 00:19:17,949
- Take him! Take him.
- Dir!

285
00:19:23,371 --> 00:19:24,497
[Dir panting]

286
00:19:36,801 --> 00:19:39,346
This is not the last time,
ivar lothbrok.

287
00:19:39,929 --> 00:19:41,306
We shall meet again soon.

288
00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:45,769
But for now, good night.

289
00:19:46,895 --> 00:19:48,021
Good night.

290
00:19:51,024 --> 00:19:52,024
[Horse neighs]

291
00:19:58,198 --> 00:19:59,282
[Panting]

292
00:20:02,577 --> 00:20:04,245
Did we really do that?

293
00:20:04,412 --> 00:20:05,580
[Laughing]

294
00:20:15,757 --> 00:20:17,050
[Oleg] I want to show you these.

295
00:20:18,968 --> 00:20:22,180
I know you cannot read them,
but let me explain what they are.

296
00:20:23,264 --> 00:20:24,766
These are legal documents,

297
00:20:24,849 --> 00:20:29,312
giving the rus ancient legal title
to our Scandinavian homelands.

298
00:20:31,189 --> 00:20:33,650
So that our invasion
has legitimate cause?

299
00:20:34,109 --> 00:20:36,486
No. They are forgeries, of course.

300
00:20:37,654 --> 00:20:40,990
But a forged title, my friend,
is better than no title at all.

301
00:20:41,074 --> 00:20:42,992
- [Man speaks indistinctly]
- Oh, our food.

302
00:21:04,097 --> 00:21:05,265
Who are these?

303
00:21:05,598 --> 00:21:07,684
The guards who allowed
my brother to escape.

304
00:21:09,310 --> 00:21:10,812
We tortured them, of course.

305
00:21:12,230 --> 00:21:13,314
What did they say?

306
00:21:13,398 --> 00:21:14,398
They said...

307
00:21:15,108 --> 00:21:18,695
They were deliberately distracted
by a naked woman and left their posts.

308
00:21:20,780 --> 00:21:21,865
They saw nothing else.

309
00:21:24,033 --> 00:21:25,452
And now they never will.

310
00:21:32,876 --> 00:21:35,879
I suppose you know nothing
about dir's escape, do you?

311
00:21:39,132 --> 00:21:40,216
Igor?

312
00:21:48,558 --> 00:21:51,644
You understand that with dir free,
you are in more danger

313
00:21:51,728 --> 00:21:53,897
of being kidnapped than ever?

314
00:22:01,821 --> 00:22:03,740
Now I have a more pleasant duty.

315
00:22:05,158 --> 00:22:06,576
I am to be married again.

316
00:22:08,661 --> 00:22:11,498
I want to introduce you
to my intended bride.

317
00:22:12,957 --> 00:22:14,584
This is Princess Katia.

318
00:22:23,009 --> 00:22:27,889
My dear Katia, may I present to you
my cousin and ward, prince Igor.

319
00:22:32,852 --> 00:22:34,854
[Katia] Prince. [Kisses]

320
00:22:35,813 --> 00:22:36,940
[Ivar gasps softly]

321
00:22:38,775 --> 00:22:41,069
And this is the viking king
I told you about.

322
00:22:41,736 --> 00:22:42,904
This is ivar.

323
00:22:43,863 --> 00:22:46,282
The famous ivar the boneless.

324
00:22:49,869 --> 00:22:51,329
Princess.

325
00:22:53,206 --> 00:22:54,415
King ivar.

326
00:22:56,584 --> 00:22:57,710
Let's eat.

327
00:23:00,630 --> 00:23:02,670
[Whispers] You look as though
you have seen a ghost.

328
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:06,970
Believe me, I have.

329
00:23:09,472 --> 00:23:10,557
[Oleg] Leave us.

330
00:23:11,057 --> 00:23:12,267
Please, enjoy your food.

331
00:23:15,812 --> 00:23:17,092
[Lagertha] Make sure it's tight.

332
00:23:24,070 --> 00:23:25,613
It has been a while, lagertha.

333
00:23:25,947 --> 00:23:27,740
Perhaps they are not
coming back after all?

334
00:23:30,243 --> 00:23:31,327
I hope you're right.

335
00:23:32,870 --> 00:23:33,997
But you don't believe it.

336
00:23:36,708 --> 00:23:38,126
I think they will come.

337
00:23:41,004 --> 00:23:42,046
[Exhales sharply]

338
00:23:42,797 --> 00:23:44,257
[Indistinct chatter]

339
00:23:53,808 --> 00:23:57,687
I want to consider it. Yes, we'll talk.

340
00:24:02,066 --> 00:24:06,029
Yes. King hakon.
Speaking of a warrior. Welcome.

341
00:24:07,155 --> 00:24:08,156
Good to see you here.

342
00:24:08,239 --> 00:24:09,449
Jar! Hrolf.

343
00:24:09,907 --> 00:24:11,075
Good to see you.

344
00:24:28,217 --> 00:24:29,802
[Man shouts indistinctly]

345
00:24:41,564 --> 00:24:42,564
[Man] The gate!

346
00:24:50,239 --> 00:24:53,785
[Man 1] Move along! Move along!
Move along!

347
00:24:53,868 --> 00:24:55,370
Move along. Move along.

348
00:24:55,453 --> 00:24:58,790
[Man 2] Hurry up. Hurry. Hurry up.
Hurry up!

349
00:24:58,873 --> 00:25:00,583
Go! Go!

350
00:25:32,657 --> 00:25:33,950
[People cheer]

351
00:25:37,453 --> 00:25:39,080
Princess.

352
00:25:40,456 --> 00:25:41,290
[Exhales heavily]

353
00:25:41,374 --> 00:25:44,752
I've been waiting for the opportunity
to talk to you privately.

354
00:25:47,380 --> 00:25:50,967
Surely you understand
why I need to talk to you.

355
00:25:54,554 --> 00:25:56,597
Oleg is playing games with me.

356
00:25:57,974 --> 00:26:00,393
And why do you say so,
ivar the boneless?

357
00:26:00,768 --> 00:26:02,186
You are freydis.

358
00:26:02,603 --> 00:26:03,980
Freydis?

359
00:26:04,272 --> 00:26:05,565
I don't understand.

360
00:26:05,648 --> 00:26:07,024
Neither do I.

361
00:26:07,483 --> 00:26:10,278
But it is true. And you and I...

362
00:26:10,737 --> 00:26:12,196
Were once married.

363
00:26:13,489 --> 00:26:14,782
Were we really?

364
00:26:15,950 --> 00:26:18,828
And what happened to us?

365
00:26:40,516 --> 00:26:42,810
[Indistinct chatter]

366
00:27:04,916 --> 00:27:06,292
Give me.

367
00:27:07,084 --> 00:27:08,628
How do you pay?

368
00:27:09,045 --> 00:27:10,838
You have not paid for days.

369
00:27:11,464 --> 00:27:13,216
I do not give for free.

370
00:27:13,299 --> 00:27:14,759
[Voice shaking] Give me.

371
00:27:18,012 --> 00:27:19,132
[Hvitserk breathing heavily]

372
00:27:20,765 --> 00:27:21,766
Come on.

373
00:27:22,475 --> 00:27:23,768
You must pay.

374
00:27:23,851 --> 00:27:25,061
Later.

375
00:27:25,144 --> 00:27:26,729
I'll ask my brother, ubbe.

376
00:27:26,813 --> 00:27:28,564
You know ubbe, right? You trust him?

377
00:27:29,065 --> 00:27:30,274
- Yes.
- Good.

378
00:27:30,566 --> 00:27:32,151
But I don't trust you.

379
00:27:32,819 --> 00:27:34,362
So, I give you nothing.

380
00:27:35,905 --> 00:27:39,575
Ale. And mushrooms. Now.

381
00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:40,700
[Grunts]

382
00:27:42,537 --> 00:27:44,247
I'll take that.

383
00:27:46,707 --> 00:27:48,042
Then you get nothing.

384
00:27:48,543 --> 00:27:49,627
Only to suffer.

385
00:28:01,722 --> 00:28:02,722
Come on.

386
00:28:15,903 --> 00:28:17,697
More. More.

387
00:28:19,282 --> 00:28:20,282
[Grunts]

388
00:28:37,717 --> 00:28:38,717
[Grunts]

389
00:28:58,946 --> 00:29:01,198
[Seer] If you came this way,

390
00:29:01,741 --> 00:29:03,451
taking any route,

391
00:29:03,743 --> 00:29:05,578
starting from anywhere,

392
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,457
at any time or at any season,

393
00:29:09,957 --> 00:29:12,251
it would always be the same.

394
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:14,921
Is that really you?

395
00:29:15,004 --> 00:29:16,756
Could that be you, o wise one?

396
00:29:16,964 --> 00:29:20,760
[Seer] We are anyway
where we are supposed to be.

397
00:29:20,843 --> 00:29:22,094
I'm not supposed to be here.

398
00:29:22,178 --> 00:29:24,388
Not now, not here.

399
00:29:26,724 --> 00:29:29,393
I had things to do. I had things to do.

400
00:29:30,019 --> 00:29:34,398
Perhaps what you thought
you came here for is only a shell,

401
00:29:34,899 --> 00:29:38,235
a husk of meaning
from which the purpose breaks

402
00:29:38,319 --> 00:29:42,114
only when it is fulfilled, if at all.

403
00:29:42,823 --> 00:29:44,992
Either you had no purpose,

404
00:29:45,451 --> 00:29:49,997
or the purpose is beyond
the end you figured.

405
00:29:50,456 --> 00:29:52,917
[Groans] I have a purpose. It's just...

406
00:29:55,169 --> 00:30:01,676
At this time, at this place,
I... I tend to forget. I tend to forget.

407
00:30:01,926 --> 00:30:02,926
[Sniffles]

408
00:30:03,260 --> 00:30:07,640
[Seer] Do not weep, hvitserk,
son of ragnar.

409
00:30:07,723 --> 00:30:12,311
There are other places
also at the world's end,

410
00:30:13,229 --> 00:30:15,523
some at the sea jaws,

411
00:30:15,898 --> 00:30:20,319
or over a dark lake,
in a desert or city.

412
00:30:20,861 --> 00:30:22,863
You're driving me mad!

413
00:30:22,947 --> 00:30:26,409
[Seer] I drive you mad,
if it makes any difference,

414
00:30:26,492 --> 00:30:29,537
because you are not yet fit
for your purpose.

415
00:30:29,620 --> 00:30:31,956
Your life resembles death.

416
00:30:32,373 --> 00:30:34,333
I am dead!

417
00:30:35,376 --> 00:30:40,673
[Seer] No. Let me repeat,
so you can understand.

418
00:30:40,798 --> 00:30:43,801
Either you had no purpose,

419
00:30:43,884 --> 00:30:47,722
or the purpose is beyond
the end you figured.

420
00:30:48,305 --> 00:30:50,391
Altered in fulfillment.

421
00:30:51,142 --> 00:30:55,021
Altered in fulfillment, hvitserk.

422
00:30:56,188 --> 00:30:59,233
Altered in fulfillment.

423
00:31:00,693 --> 00:31:02,403
Altered in fulfillment?

424
00:31:07,616 --> 00:31:08,616
[Gasping]

425
00:31:12,830 --> 00:31:15,916
Altered in fulfillment?

426
00:31:16,667 --> 00:31:17,752
[Woman coughs]

427
00:31:20,713 --> 00:31:22,006
[Indistinct chatter]

428
00:31:24,884 --> 00:31:26,510
[Horn bellowing]

429
00:31:38,814 --> 00:31:40,733
[Ketill] An amazing sight, king olaf.

430
00:31:41,567 --> 00:31:42,943
[King olaf] So it should be.

431
00:31:43,277 --> 00:31:46,864
For this is an amazing occasion.

432
00:31:47,156 --> 00:31:52,620
Never before have we voted
for a king of all Norway.

433
00:31:54,789 --> 00:31:56,707
It's been a dream of many.

434
00:31:56,791 --> 00:32:00,294
Now... now, brought to fruition.

435
00:32:01,295 --> 00:32:03,464
I hope that things
will proceed smoothly.

436
00:32:06,634 --> 00:32:09,720
Do you know any reason
why it should not?

437
00:32:19,730 --> 00:32:20,898
[People shouting, cheering]

438
00:32:21,065 --> 00:32:22,566
[Drums beating rapidly]

439
00:32:54,306 --> 00:32:55,808
Bjorn.

440
00:32:55,891 --> 00:32:56,892
[Staffjingles, thuds]

441
00:32:57,393 --> 00:32:58,435
What?

442
00:33:00,729 --> 00:33:01,897
Nothing.

443
00:33:02,231 --> 00:33:03,649
But may the gods be with you.

444
00:33:10,406 --> 00:33:12,658
[Breathes deeply]

445
00:34:32,363 --> 00:34:36,533
Today is an extraordinary

446
00:34:37,493 --> 00:34:39,536
and a unique day

447
00:34:39,620 --> 00:34:44,833
in the history and saga of our country.

448
00:34:44,917 --> 00:34:48,629
Never before have our rulers

449
00:34:48,712 --> 00:34:50,839
willingly gathered together

450
00:34:50,923 --> 00:34:56,553
to elect one of their numbers
as king of kings.

451
00:34:57,054 --> 00:35:00,641
King of all Norway!

452
00:35:02,226 --> 00:35:06,146
Many have said that
such a thing is impossible.

453
00:35:07,022 --> 00:35:10,317
That our rulers have never been able

454
00:35:10,401 --> 00:35:14,446
to see beyond their own self-interest.

455
00:35:15,281 --> 00:35:18,158
Yet now, with your own eyes,

456
00:35:18,242 --> 00:35:24,456
you will see the impossible
begin to happen!

457
00:35:25,374 --> 00:35:31,380
When all our votes
are cast into the sea,

458
00:35:31,755 --> 00:35:34,967
we will know the identity of the man

459
00:35:35,467 --> 00:35:40,681
always fated to be
the king of all Norway!

460
00:35:43,058 --> 00:35:48,522
Each of these runes
represents an ear! Or a king.

461
00:35:50,649 --> 00:35:52,943
You shall know them by their color.

462
00:35:54,069 --> 00:35:55,529
For example,

463
00:35:55,738 --> 00:36:00,784
Earl thorkell
is represented by a blue rune.

464
00:36:02,328 --> 00:36:06,123
King hakon by a green.

465
00:36:07,416 --> 00:36:10,794
Bjorn Ironside by a red.

466
00:36:11,420 --> 00:36:14,089
King Harald by a yellow.

467
00:36:15,049 --> 00:36:19,011
It falls to me to cast the first vote.

468
00:36:21,138 --> 00:36:22,556
I vote...

469
00:36:23,599 --> 00:36:26,393
For bjorn Ironside...

470
00:36:27,603 --> 00:36:28,854
As king...

471
00:36:30,397 --> 00:36:33,442
Of all Norway!

472
00:36:33,984 --> 00:36:36,111
- [Drums beating]
- [People cheering]

473
00:37:22,449 --> 00:37:24,284
You are waiting for someone to return?

474
00:37:27,996 --> 00:37:30,707
- Yes.
- Your lover?

475
00:37:34,169 --> 00:37:35,546
Did he go with bjorn?

476
00:37:37,965 --> 00:37:39,007
Yes.

477
00:37:40,300 --> 00:37:41,380
I know how you are feeling.

478
00:37:42,094 --> 00:37:43,303
You can't.

479
00:37:43,387 --> 00:37:46,265
You're the wife of ubbe,
and I am a servant.

480
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:47,850
Even if bjorn survives...

481
00:37:47,933 --> 00:37:49,017
Bjorn?

482
00:37:50,769 --> 00:37:52,104
You are in love with bjorn?

483
00:37:57,151 --> 00:37:59,236
Then, believe me, I do know.

484
00:38:01,029 --> 00:38:03,866
I stared out to sea
and waited for bjorn many times.

485
00:38:04,950 --> 00:38:07,327
And each time he came back,
he was always further away.

486
00:38:11,832 --> 00:38:13,667
It will be different with me.

487
00:38:15,294 --> 00:38:16,503
Yes.

488
00:38:50,496 --> 00:38:51,914
And I...

489
00:38:54,500 --> 00:39:01,340
Will also vote for bjorn Ironside
to be king of all Norway.

490
00:39:02,216 --> 00:39:04,676
[People cheering]

491
00:39:26,907 --> 00:39:27,991
[Ubbe] Go on.

492
00:39:28,075 --> 00:39:29,719
[Man] We were traveling
along the silk road.

493
00:39:29,743 --> 00:39:33,080
We had gone many rast and talked to
many traders from different countries,

494
00:39:33,455 --> 00:39:34,957
when we came to the kingdom of rus.

495
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,709
I have heard of it.
It was founded by rus vikings.

496
00:39:37,793 --> 00:39:40,671
[Man] Yes. Some of them
could still speak our language.

497
00:39:40,754 --> 00:39:43,924
We were invited into one of
their principal towns, called novgorod.

498
00:39:44,174 --> 00:39:45,342
Novgorod is a rich place,

499
00:39:45,425 --> 00:39:48,720
for these rus are very successful
warriors, hunters, and traders.

500
00:39:49,221 --> 00:39:51,306
And they were anxious
to do deals with us,

501
00:39:51,390 --> 00:39:53,618
for they said that we have many things
which they wanted.

502
00:39:53,642 --> 00:39:55,143
[Torvi] But I don't understand.

503
00:39:55,686 --> 00:39:59,606
If you were so successful,
then why did you come back so early?

504
00:40:00,107 --> 00:40:01,858
Surely your mission
is not yet concluded.

505
00:40:02,317 --> 00:40:03,317
[Man] No.

506
00:40:03,860 --> 00:40:06,060
But we all felt that
someone should return here at once.

507
00:40:06,238 --> 00:40:07,906
To report your success?

508
00:40:07,990 --> 00:40:10,325
[Man] No. To report something else.

509
00:40:10,993 --> 00:40:12,244
For while we were in novgorod,

510
00:40:12,327 --> 00:40:14,913
we learned that someone else
was staying with the rus.

511
00:40:14,997 --> 00:40:16,873
Indeed, living at the palace

512
00:40:16,957 --> 00:40:20,544
in another town called Kiev
with their leader, prince Oleg.

513
00:40:20,627 --> 00:40:21,878
Ivar?

514
00:40:21,962 --> 00:40:23,088
[Man] Yes.

515
00:40:23,714 --> 00:40:25,757
They told us that
king ivar the boneless,

516
00:40:25,841 --> 00:40:28,927
son of ragnar lothbrok, was their guest.

517
00:40:30,929 --> 00:40:33,181
You have done well
to bring us this news.

518
00:40:35,976 --> 00:40:39,438
I am not surprised to hear
that my little brother is still alive.

519
00:40:39,855 --> 00:40:40,689
[Arms clasp]

520
00:40:40,772 --> 00:40:41,982
Go, and drink.

521
00:40:42,232 --> 00:40:43,692
Thank you, ubbe.

522
00:40:46,069 --> 00:40:47,321
[Torvi] What did you see?

523
00:40:53,744 --> 00:40:55,329
You must tell hvitserk.

524
00:40:55,662 --> 00:40:57,623
For better or worse, he needs to know.

525
00:41:02,961 --> 00:41:04,296
Hvitserk!

526
00:41:06,340 --> 00:41:07,716
Hvitserk!

527
00:41:30,906 --> 00:41:32,991
[Ivar's voice] I'm here, brother!

528
00:41:40,290 --> 00:41:42,542
[Whimpering loudly]

529
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,674
[Water splashing]

530
00:41:50,092 --> 00:41:51,551
[Whimpering]

531
00:41:57,557 --> 00:42:01,645
[Ivar's voice] Is it true?
Did you jump ship to be near me?

532
00:42:06,066 --> 00:42:07,359
[Shuddering]

533
00:42:13,615 --> 00:42:15,867
[Ivar's voice] Not because
you loved me...

534
00:42:16,743 --> 00:42:17,743
[Wood cracking]

535
00:42:17,786 --> 00:42:18,995
[Whimpers]

536
00:42:21,248 --> 00:42:24,626
But because you needed
to be close enough to kill me?

537
00:42:24,835 --> 00:42:26,002
[Wood cracking]

538
00:42:26,086 --> 00:42:27,086
[Whimpers]

539
00:42:27,129 --> 00:42:28,338
[Gasping]

540
00:42:34,094 --> 00:42:35,887
[Snake rattle hissing]

541
00:42:37,597 --> 00:42:39,307
[Laughing]

542
00:42:44,980 --> 00:42:46,732
[Music playing]
