1. In the 11th century,
Copy !req
2. the invasion by Denmark's army
and the Vikings
Copy !req
3. continued to intensify.
Copy !req
4. ENGLAND 1012 AD
Copy !req
5. In October,
Copy !req
6. the attacks, which had continued for several years,
Copy !req
7. reached a turning point.
Copy !req
8. KING SWEYN'S ESTATE
Copy !req
9. Are you telling me
to withdraw my troops from England?
Copy !req
10. We're not withdrawing. We're letting them rest.
Copy !req
11. Marching in the winter weakens them.
Copy !req
12. Let the soldiers rest.
Copy !req
13. Yes, sir. As you wish.
Copy !req
14. The summer.
Copy !req
15. We're going to strike next summer.
Copy !req
16. I, too, shall lead an army in battle.
Copy !req
17. So, suddenly we get a break?
Copy !req
18. I want to go home.
Copy !req
19. We don't need those pirates for now, either.
Copy !req
20. I thought I'd be able to earn a lot this year.
Copy !req
21. We can't do anything,
now that the army is staying put.
Copy !req
22. This is why I hate being a hired hand.
Copy !req
23. What's Askeladd going to do?
Copy !req
24. Askeladd.
Copy !req
25. It'd be a shame to spend all winter like this.
Copy !req
26. And we already raided all the good villages.
Copy !req
27. True.
Copy !req
28. What are you going to do?
Copy !req
29. We can't do anything about it.
Copy !req
30. We're going to do what the birds do.
Copy !req
31. We'll go to where the food is.
Copy !req
32. Don't just stand there.
Copy !req
33. They have a ram.
Copy !req
34. Bring the crossbowmen.
Copy !req
35. One. Two.
Copy !req
36. Alternate fire with two groups.
Copy !req
37. Aim.
Copy !req
38. Fire.
Copy !req
39. It's no good. Retreat.
Copy !req
40. It looks like the Franks are fighting
amongst themselves.
Copy !req
41. The fort's defended by only a few men.
Copy !req
42. The attackers have 800.
Copy !req
43. I can't believe they attacked the fort head-on.
Copy !req
44. So, this is the local clan's headquarters.
Copy !req
45. How about it? Doesn't it smell like treasure?
Copy !req
46. So, that's what you're after.
Copy !req
47. Let's do it, Askeladd.
Copy !req
48. We'll side with the attackers.
Copy !req
49. Let's smash open the treasure chest,
and take everything inside.
Copy !req
50. All right.
Copy !req
51. I was wondering why we came to the boonies.
Copy !req
52. You're amazing, Askeladd.
Copy !req
53. Your predictions were spot-on.
Copy !req
54. Let's make up our loss from England.
Copy !req
55. Okay, Thorfinn.
Copy !req
56. You're up.
Copy !req
57. We're going to war.
Copy !req
58. We're going to war.
Copy !req
59. Make contact with their leader.
Copy !req
60. Give him this message:
Copy !req
61. "You're terrible at battle.
Copy !req
62. I can't stand watching you.
Copy !req
63. Therefore, my men will help you.
Copy !req
64. This is a once-in-a-lifetime offer.
Copy !req
65. I shall lead you to victory, no matter what.
Copy !req
66. Once the fort falls, we will take half of the spoils.
Copy !req
67. We shall attack again tomorrow morning."
Copy !req
68. After you deliver the message, stay in their camp,
and observe the situation.
Copy !req
69. Got it? Then go.
Copy !req
70. What's wrong?
Copy !req
71. Go, Thorfinn.
Copy !req
72. Do you have any idea how many people I've killed?
Copy !req
73. I went scouting,
Copy !req
74. and I also brought up the rear.
Copy !req
75. I've accomplished enough.
Copy !req
76. But you...
Copy !req
77. What? You want a reward?
Copy !req
78. If you close the deal, I'll give you three gold pieces.
Copy !req
79. I swear in the name of Tyr.
Copy !req
80. Don't test me.
Copy !req
81. How long do you plan to keep running away?
Copy !req
82. I'm so scared.
Copy !req
83. I was just joking.
Copy !req
84. But you know...
Copy !req
85. You'd have to bring me at least one head with a helmet,
if you want that.
Copy !req
86. He never changes.
Copy !req
87. Are you sure it's okay
to let him handle the negotiation?
Copy !req
88. Soldiers are short-tempered
when they're weak.
Copy !req
89. They might kill the messenger,
before the negotiations start. It happens all the time.
Copy !req
90. Who cares if we lose some kid that follows us?
Copy !req
91. What are you doing, kid?
Copy !req
92. This is no place for a kid.
Copy !req
93. I'm a messenger.
Copy !req
94. Is there anyone who can speak Norse?
Copy !req
95. What's wrong with you? What language is that?
Copy !req
96. He's not a Frank.
Copy !req
97. Is he a spy from the fort?
Copy !req
98. Secure him.
Copy !req
99. I'm a messenger.
Copy !req
100. Is there anyone who can speak Norse?
Copy !req
101. You want half of the spoils?
Copy !req
102. You mercenaries. Don't push your luck.
Copy !req
103. "You want half of the spoils?
Don't push your luck."
Copy !req
104. You're pretty confident in yourself.
Copy !req
105. Normanni kid.
Copy !req
106. Normanni?
Copy !req
107. Those people from the north attacking England?
Copy !req
108. "Those people from the north attacking England?"
Copy !req
109. Even a kid can see it.
Copy !req
110. If you keep attacking the front gate,
your men are just going to die.
Copy !req
111. Their defenses are weak on the lake.
Copy !req
112. We're going to attack there.
Copy !req
113. Your plan is ill-considered.
Copy !req
114. The river that leads to the lake gets steeper upstream.
Copy !req
115. There's even a waterfall.
Copy !req
116. Our ship sunk downstream.
Copy !req
117. That's what would happen
if you attacked from the lake.
Copy !req
118. "That's what would happen
if you attacked from the lake."
Copy !req
119. Then do you want to turn down my offer?
Copy !req
120. Then Askeladd and his hundred men are going
to join the defenders in the fort.
Copy !req
121. He'll do the same thing if I die too.
Copy !req
122. If I don't signal that the deal has been closed,
Copy !req
123. you're going to make enemies
of a hundred fierce men from the Northern Sea.
Copy !req
124. Very well.
Copy !req
125. Your Highness.
Copy !req
126. But...
Copy !req
127. if you're lying, I'm going to cut off your head.
Copy !req
128. If you're telling the truth,
then in the name of Jesus Christ,
Copy !req
129. I'll share my bread equally.
Copy !req
130. "I'll share my bread equally."
Copy !req
131. Give me back my dagger.
Copy !req
132. It's a memento from my father.
Copy !req
133. It's Thorfinn's signal.
Copy !req
134. One high arrow, and two low arrows.
Copy !req
135. Let's hurry.
Copy !req
136. Let's cross the pass before the moon rises.
Copy !req
137. We're stuck guarding the ship the whole time.
Copy !req
138. I want to fight too.
Copy !req
139. Damn that fat general.
Copy !req
140. Over there.
Copy !req
141. It's a dragon!
Copy !req
142. It's on the mountain.
Copy !req
143. A dragon?
Copy !req
144. You said, the dragon climbed the mountain?
Copy !req
145. Yes. Last night,
the soldiers guarding the ship all reported they saw it.
Copy !req
146. I see.
Copy !req
147. It's a bad omen, Your Highness.
Copy !req
148. I want to see it too.
Copy !req
149. Kid.
Copy !req
150. Your friends haven't come yet.
Copy !req
151. "I want to see it too."
Copy !req
152. The sun is already up.
Copy !req
153. "The sun is already up."
Copy !req
154. Just attack, you fat-ass.
Copy !req
155. You'll understand soon.
Copy !req
156. You said something mean just now, didn't you?
Copy !req
157. It looks like our entertainment for tonight is going
to be cutting off your head.
Copy !req
158. Forward march.
Copy !req
159. Forward march.
Copy !req
160. Forward.
Copy !req
161. Attack.
Copy !req
162. Oh, no. It's started.
Copy !req
163. We're late. Bastards.
Copy !req
164. Put your heart into it.
Copy !req
165. The battlefield is waiting.
Copy !req
166. It'll be the same every time.
Copy !req
167. Come on.
Copy !req
168. Put a bridge on the west side too.
Copy !req
169. I don't care how many men we lose.
Copy !req
170. Hey. Which one is their leader?
Copy !req
171. The one with the feather on his helmet.
Copy !req
172. It's him.
Copy !req
173. A head with a helmet.
Copy !req
174. You bastard.
Copy !req
175. He was lying. Kill him.
Copy !req
176. Kill the kid.
Copy !req
177. You bastard.
Copy !req
178. You let the kid escape.
You haven't captured the fort.
Copy !req
179. What's wrong with you guys?
Copy !req
180. You're thinking you'll go home,
once the snow falls.
Copy !req
181. That's not going to happen.
Copy !req
182. You're not going home until the fort is captured.
Copy !req
183. What?
Copy !req
184. Heave-ho.
Copy !req
185. Row. Full speed ahead.
Copy !req
186. Whoever gets there first gets twice as much.
Copy !req
187. Put your heart into it.
Copy !req
188. I see.
Copy !req
189. Those were friendly forces.
All troops, forward. Don't stop until the fort falls.
Copy !req
190. Never imagined they'd carry their ship over the pass.
Copy !req
191. Don't hesitate.
Copy !req
192. Eighty men from the right wing,
go to the boat landing.
Copy !req
193. Crossbowmen, this way.
Copy !req
194. Is that all you got?
Copy !req
195. The lake's not a barrier.
Copy !req
196. It's a shallow pond that makes for a perfect attack.
Copy !req
197. Great. We're going in.
Copy !req
198. What? They pierced my shield,
even though they're so far away.
Copy !req
199. They got Olov.
Copy !req
200. Askeladd.
Copy !req
201. Crossbowmen?
Copy !req
202. We're going to take a few losses.
Copy !req
203. This is the perfect chance.
Copy !req
204. Fire as much as you can before they land.
Copy !req
205. A child?
Copy !req
206. What?
Copy !req
207. They stopped attacking?
Copy !req
208. Maybe they ran out of arrows.
Copy !req
209. Men. Prepare to land.
Copy !req
210. This is our chance.
Copy !req
211. - Oh, no.
- Kill him.
Copy !req
212. - This is for the captain.
- Damn.
Copy !req
213. - That kid's crazy.
- Get him.
Copy !req
214. Go. Storm them.
Copy !req
215. All right. Go on a rampage.
Copy !req
216. Holding the gate's too hard for these guys.
Copy !req
217. Hurry up, and kill them all, guys.
Copy !req
218. One. Two.
Copy !req
219. Those Normannis are crazy.
Copy !req
220. That fortress was no match
against my military tactics.
Copy !req
221. The captain of the fortress defense died in battle.
Copy !req
222. The soldiers said, a kid did it.
Copy !req
223. That kid?
Copy !req
224. Never underestimate a Normanni.
Copy !req
225. If I send him back now,
he's going to become an enemy.
Copy !req
226. What shall we do?
Copy !req
227. Those guys came over the pass, right?
Copy !req
228. They'll probably go back the same way,
carrying the ship.
Copy !req
229. That's when we'll attack.
Copy !req
230. A sailor on land is like a baby.
Copy !req
231. Your Highness.
Copy !req
232. I have a message for General Jabbathe.
Copy !req
233. What is it? Tell me.
Copy !req
234. The treasure room...
Copy !req
235. Where's my treasure?
Copy !req
236. They also plundered the church
and the houses of all the leaders.
Copy !req
237. They took everything.
Copy !req
238. What?
Copy !req
239. I see.
Copy !req
240. I have a message for the leader of the Franks.
Copy !req
241. What?
Copy !req
242. As for your half of the spoils,
Copy !req
243. you get victory,
Copy !req
244. and we get the treasure.
Copy !req
245. You're fine with that, right?
Copy !req
246. I think we're being quite generous here, you know.
Copy !req
247. We let you have the fort, after all.
Copy !req
248. - You bastards.
- Oh, no.
Copy !req
249. - They'll descend the waterfall.
- Savages.
Copy !req
250. - Get the boats.
- You pirates.
Copy !req
251. - All boats in the fort have been destroyed.
- You greedy beasts.
Copy !req
252. You scammers.
Copy !req
253. You country bumpkins.
Copy !req
254. I can't understand French.
Copy !req
255. Now then, shall we call it a night?
Copy !req
256. Thorfinn hasn't returned.
Copy !req
257. Oh, really?
Copy !req
258. Oh, well. I bet he's dead anyway.
Copy !req
259. Now there's more treasure for us.
Copy !req
260. You're alive?
Copy !req
261. You're tough, kid. Did you get hurt?
Copy !req
262. Askeladd.
Copy !req
263. It's the captain's head.
Copy !req
264. Well, did you cut it off?
Copy !req
265. You promised.
Copy !req
266. I won't let you say no.
Copy !req
267. I, warrior from Iceland, son of Thors, Thorfinn,
Copy !req
268. in the name of my father's sword,
challenge you, Askeladd, to a duel.
Copy !req
269. To avenge my father's death.
Copy !req
270. - Hey.
- He wants to duel now?
Copy !req
271. He's got guts.
Copy !req
272. I, son of Olaf, Askeladd,
Copy !req
273. in the name of Artorius, my ancestor,
Copy !req
274. accept your challenge, Thorfinn.
Copy !req
275. However...
Copy !req
276. ask me again later.
Copy !req
277. We're getting out of here now.
Copy !req
278. Row, men.
Copy !req
279. If you don't hurry up, they'll capture the river.
Copy !req
280. You bastard. Don't play the fool with me.
Copy !req
281. Who cares if there's a dragon?
Copy !req
282. I'm not scared.
Copy !req
283. Right, right.
Copy !req
284. But you know...
Copy !req
285. It's here!
Copy !req
286. Goodbye.
Copy !req
287. Franks.
Copy !req
288. - Let's go home.
- We struck it big.
Copy !req
289. We'll survive the winter.
Copy !req
290. Yeah.
Copy !req
