1. This is ridiculous!
Copy !req
2. Einar! Wait, Einar.
Copy !req
3. Let's dig deeper and cut the roots.
Copy !req
4. It won't come out like this.
Copy !req
5. Damn you…
Copy !req
6. It still won't budge.
Copy !req
7. Darn it!
Copy !req
8. A horse…
Copy !req
9. It's impossible
without a horse, after all.
Copy !req
10. They let us borrow one
to transport the timber,
Copy !req
11. so why don't we get a horse
for grading the land?
Copy !req
12. It makes no sense.
Copy !req
13. That horse wasn't lent to us.
Copy !req
14. We were just forced to do
the work meant for the farmhands.
Copy !req
15. What should we do, Einar?
Copy !req
16. Should we hold off on making a field
and just cut the trees?
Copy !req
17. No, I'll ask them one more time.
Copy !req
18. Although it may be pointless.
Copy !req
19. You don't know when to give up, do you?
Copy !req
20. No means no!
Copy !req
21. Yeah, but we got permission from Pater.
Copy !req
22. Pater?
Copy !req
23. Darn that ex-slave…
Copy !req
24. Anyway, it's a no.
Copy !req
25. We're using all the horses for other jobs.
Copy !req
26. We don't have enough to lend to you.
Copy !req
27. It's no use, slaves.
Copy !req
28. Stop skipping work
and go back to the forest.
Copy !req
29. Hello.
Copy !req
30. Oh? I only heard one greeting.
Copy !req
31. The big one doesn't have
any manners, as usual.
Copy !req
32. Hey, I'm going to borrow a horse.
Copy !req
33. Okay.
Copy !req
34. First of all,
Copy !req
35. you slaves are no different from
cows and horses.
Copy !req
36. The fact that a horse like you
Copy !req
37. is leasing land and managing a field
is annoying in itself.
Copy !req
38. Use your own bodies!
Copy !req
39. At this rate,
Copy !req
40. we have to ask the master himself.
Copy !req
41. We need a horse no matter what.
Copy !req
42. Not just for the tree stumps,
but to plow as well.
Copy !req
43. I'm not going to
let their bullying stop me!
Copy !req
44. But even if we're able to borrow a horse
with the masters help,
Copy !req
45. it will upset the farmhands.
Copy !req
46. We'll be targeted even more.
Copy !req
47. Then what will we do?
Do everything by manpower?
Copy !req
48. Who knows how many years
it will take to prepare the field.
Copy !req
49. The forest is still huge.
Copy !req
50. Maybe we can clear up more land
before we start on the field?
Copy !req
51. Growing crops simultaneously
would be impossible.
Copy !req
52. Thorfinn!
Copy !req
53. Why are you so unmotivated?
Copy !req
54. Don't you want freedom?
Copy !req
55. Even if it's impossible,
we have to grow crops!
Copy !req
56. Then we'll sell them to the master
and buy our freedom.
Copy !req
57. To do that we need a horse!
Copy !req
58. Einar, you are so energetic for someone
Copy !req
59. who doesn't get decent meals.
Copy !req
60. Stupid!
Copy !req
61. Your lack of energy is more abnormal.
Copy !req
62. - I got the gist of it.
- Huh?
Copy !req
63. Up we go… Ouch…
Copy !req
64. What are you doing? Come over here.
Copy !req
65. We can't talk if you're so far away.
Copy !req
66. Don't step on the ridges.
Copy !req
67. Hello. Um, what can we do for you?
Copy !req
68. - What's your name?
- Oh yes…
Copy !req
69. - I'm Einar.
- I'm Thorfinn.
Copy !req
70. - Want to borrow one?
- Huh?
Copy !req
71. A horse. You need one, right?
Copy !req
72. - What?
- What?
Copy !req
73. Yes! We need one!
Copy !req
74. No way! Are you serious?
Copy !req
75. That would be so helpful! Wow!
Copy !req
76. More like…
Copy !req
77. Sorry, um…
Copy !req
78. Who are you?
Copy !req
79. This hurts your back.
Copy !req
80. Um, grandpa?
Copy !req
81. Call me Sverkel.
Copy !req
82. Don't forget to add a "Mr."
Copy !req
83. Mr. Sverkel,
Copy !req
84. for how long should we pick these rocks?
Copy !req
85. Until there are no rocks.
Copy !req
86. Hey, your hands aren't moving.
Copy !req
87. Oh, sorry.
Copy !req
88. Ouch…
Copy !req
89. Good.
Copy !req
90. So, Mr. Sverkel,
Copy !req
91. about the horse you are going to lend us…
Copy !req
92. Bring the basket.
Copy !req
93. Once you're done chopping the firewood,
go draw some water.
Copy !req
94. - Hurry now.
- Yes!
Copy !req
95. He's totally taking advantage of us.
Copy !req
96. We don't have time for this.
Copy !req
97. More like, I wonder if that old man
Copy !req
98. is living in this house alone?
Copy !req
99. I don't know.
I've never met him before either.
Copy !req
100. Will he really lend it to us?
Copy !req
101. What if he's just using us
and making us work for free?
Copy !req
102. Even if that's true, that's normal.
Copy !req
103. We're slaves, after all.
Copy !req
104. But we belong to the master.
Copy !req
105. I don't care about your status.
Copy !req
106. This is a contract.
Copy !req
107. I will lend you a horse and in exchange
you will do my chores
Copy !req
108. both when you borrow it
and when you bring it back.
Copy !req
109. Got that?
Copy !req
110. All right! Onto the next one!
Copy !req
111. There we go!
Copy !req
112. This is so easy! Very nice!
Copy !req
113. I can't believe he actually lent us one.
Copy !req
114. That old man is such a nice person!
Copy !req
115. There!
Copy !req
116. You can do it! That's it!
Copy !req
117. You're so cute!
Copy !req
118. All right!
Copy !req
119. Next one!
Copy !req
120. If we keep this up,
Copy !req
121. we may actually be able to sow in fall.
Copy !req
122. I wonder if that old man
would lend us a plow too?
Copy !req
123. Preferably a heavy one with wheels.
Copy !req
124. What seeds do you sow in fall?
Copy !req
125. Huh?
Copy !req
126. Wheat, of course.
Copy !req
127. Interesting. Wheat is sown in fall, huh?
Copy !req
128. What… Wait a second!
Copy !req
129. Have you worked in a field before?
Copy !req
130. No.
Copy !req
131. In my country, no one had fields.
Copy !req
132. And I was working on the battlefield
since I was a kid.
Copy !req
133. A country with no fields…
Copy !req
134. Man, it's hard to believe.
Copy !req
135. My mom and little sister
would be baffled if they heard that.
Copy !req
136. Well, anyway!
Copy !req
137. When it comes to the fields, count on me!
Copy !req
138. - After all, I'm a professional!
- Okay.
Copy !req
139. Hey, you slaves!
Copy !req
140. Who gave you permission
to take that horse, huh?
Copy !req
141. - Here comes the jerk.
- Hello.
Copy !req
142. We didn't take this without permission.
Copy !req
143. Mr. Sverkel lent it to us.
Copy !req
144. Huh? Who?
Copy !req
145. I said Mr. Sverkel.
Copy !req
146. His place is all the way down this path.
Copy !req
147. Stop lying!
Copy !req
148. There's nobody named Sverkel here.
Copy !req
149. So you resorted to stealing, huh?
Copy !req
150. Oh? Did we have
a horse like this on our farm?
Copy !req
151. Hey, who did you say
you borrowed this horse from?
Copy !req
152. Like I said…
Copy !req
153. Mr. Sverkel! You don't know him?
Copy !req
154. He's a bald, short old man.
Copy !req
155. Bald, short, old man?
Copy !req
156. Is it the old master?
Copy !req
157. Oh, now that you mention it,
his name was something like that.
Copy !req
158. The old master?
Copy !req
159. You must be lying after all.
Copy !req
160. He's such a grumpy man.
Copy !req
161. He would never lend you a horse.
Copy !req
162. He's Master Ketil's father.
Copy !req
163. He's the most
important person on this farm.
Copy !req
164. Looks like it's going to rain.
Copy !req
165. Thorfinn, after we're done with this row,
let's call it a day.
Copy !req
166. Okay.
Copy !req
167. It's a root again.
Copy !req
168. We removed the stumps,
Copy !req
169. but there are still roots
deep underground.
Copy !req
170. Oh well…
Copy !req
171. This year we'll only plow a thin layer.
Copy !req
172. I don't want to take a chance
and break the plow we're borrowing.
Copy !req
173. Wow…
Copy !req
174. That wilderness turned into
this in just one day.
Copy !req
175. Look, over there,
Copy !req
176. over there,
Copy !req
177. and there. They're using two.
Copy !req
178. They bought four more this year,
Copy !req
179. so there are a total of ten heavy plows.
Copy !req
180. The master must be extremely wealthy.
Copy !req
181. Are these that expensive?
Copy !req
182. They sure are!
Copy !req
183. In my village,
one was shared by eight families.
Copy !req
184. I'm so glad the old master
had one at his house.
Copy !req
185. There is no way the farmhands
would let us borrow one.
Copy !req
186. I imagine it's difficult to
cultivate the land by hand
Copy !req
187. using a hoe.
Copy !req
188. Of course it is.
Copy !req
189. Having this and a horse
makes a world of difference.
Copy !req
190. What an amazing invention.
Copy !req
191. This must have been invented by a farmer.
Copy !req
192. You must know the hardships of farming
in order to make
Copy !req
193. something like this.
Copy !req
194. You really are a newbie
at farming, aren't you?
Copy !req
195. Everything is a new discovery for you.
Copy !req
196. You're like a big baby.
Copy !req
197. It's starting to rain!
Copy !req
198. Let's hurry, Thorfinn!
Copy !req
199. Are you prepared for the rain?
Copy !req
200. Don't change the subject.
Copy !req
201. I'm worried about your health, Dad.
Copy !req
202. You're too old to be overworking yourself.
Copy !req
203. When you collapsed on the field last time,
Copy !req
204. you were lucky
that Snake happened to be there.
Copy !req
205. If I can die on the field,
I will have no complaints.
Copy !req
206. First of all, it's reckless
for you to live on your own at that age.
Copy !req
207. You can't do physical labor.
Copy !req
208. You don't need to worry about that.
I am managing.
Copy !req
209. Dad, don't be difficult.
Copy !req
210. Ketil,
Copy !req
211. you and I don't think the same way.
Copy !req
212. If we are together,
we'll start fighting again.
Copy !req
213. You're just stubborn!
Copy !req
214. This is kind of awkward.
Copy !req
215. About what we talked about…
Give it some thought.
Copy !req
216. Hm? What are you two doing here?
Copy !req
217. Hello.
Copy !req
218. Dad, don't just use them as you please.
Copy !req
219. They're my slaves.
Copy !req
220. You're wet.
Copy !req
221. Might as well
wash your clothes while you're here.
Copy !req
222. I guess those two don't get along.
Copy !req
223. All right, where's the washpot…
Copy !req
224. - Whoa!
- What's wrong?
Copy !req
225. - Snake! It's Snake!
- A snake?
Copy !req
226. - Why is he here?
- Uh…
Copy !req
227. More like, he was dead asleep
through that fight?
Copy !req
228. He must have thick skin.
Copy !req
229. What a messy sleeper.
Copy !req
230. Gramps, you're making food, aren't you!
Copy !req
231. - Don't think you can eat without me!
- Darn. You woke up.
Copy !req
232. Why are you two here?
Were you trying to sneak into bed with me?
Copy !req
233. Good morning.
Copy !req
234. You are hopeless…
Copy !req
235. You only wake up when it's mealtime.
Copy !req
236. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
Copy !req
237. How could a grown man like you
Copy !req
238. shamelessly eat a meal
without doing any work.
Copy !req
239. That's nonsense, Gramps.
Copy !req
240. Thieves come at night.
Copy !req
241. Peace is maintained on the farm
Copy !req
242. because we patrol every night.
Copy !req
243. And so I will eat.
Copy !req
244. You just hang out with girls
in their houses. How is that "guard duty"?
Copy !req
245. I'm on guard to make sure
the girls aren't taken by thieves.
Copy !req
246. You always have a cheeky comeback.
Copy !req
247. You always have something to nag about.
Copy !req
248. What are you guys doing?
Come over here and eat.
Copy !req
249. Aren't you hungry?
Copy !req
250. Is it okay?
Copy !req
251. Eat up! You don't have to feel bad,
it's nothing special.
Copy !req
252. It's not for you to say!
Copy !req
253. Sit down. People who work deserve to eat.
Copy !req
254. Um, is it true that thieves come here?
Copy !req
255. Yes, they come all the time.
Copy !req
256. They target the wheat that's ready
for harvesting and pigs.
Copy !req
257. I see…
Copy !req
258. Some of them are armed.
Copy !req
259. Beating them up and detaining them
Copy !req
260. is part of our job.
Copy !req
261. We are actually working, you see.
Copy !req
262. The amount we would potentially lose
to thieves is basically the same amount
Copy !req
263. it costs to feed you guys.
Copy !req
264. Old man…
Copy !req
265. Must you be so annoying?
Copy !req
266. We can chase away thieves
without your help.
Copy !req
267. We are Nordic men.
Copy !req
268. We know how to use a sword and spear.
Copy !req
269. Really? You can have
a swordfight at your age?
Copy !req
270. Don't flatter yourself, Snake.
Copy !req
271. There are countless people
who are more skilled than you.
Copy !req
272. I'm just worried about you
because you're old.
Copy !req
273. I'm not frail enough
to need you to worry about me.
Copy !req
274. Don't get so worked up.
You'll collapse again, Grandpa.
Copy !req
275. Say what you will, but the truth is
Copy !req
276. that the force on this farm
doesn't match up to its size.
Copy !req
277. I have 13 subordinates
Copy !req
278. and our hands are full with thieves.
Copy !req
279. Let's say, 50 to 60 soldiers attack us,
Copy !req
280. this farm won't stand a chance.
Copy !req
281. - Right, Thorfinn?
- Huh?
Copy !req
282. Right… Well, I wouldn't know.
Copy !req
283. We won't have to face anything worse
Copy !req
284. than thieves here.
Copy !req
285. You never know!
Copy !req
286. When that happens,
it'll be too late to panic.
Copy !req
287. Don't worry.
Copy !req
288. Whatever happens,
I will not beg for your help.
Copy !req
289. Why won't anything
worse than thieves come here?
Copy !req
290. S… Sorry…
Copy !req
291. Because of King Harald's authority.
Copy !req
292. Ketil sends an exorbitant amount
Copy !req
293. of tribute to the king twice a year.
Copy !req
294. As long as the king accepts it,
Copy !req
295. he has an obligation to protect Ketil.
Copy !req
296. It is foolish…
Copy !req
297. to buy peace with money.
Copy !req
298. What is the point of owning a farm
that is too big for a farmer
Copy !req
299. to protect?
Copy !req
300. Do you know how many days
Copy !req
301. it takes to get here from Jelling?
Copy !req
302. We are the ones
who are actually protecting the farm.
Copy !req
303. Too much wealth brings forth disaster.
Copy !req
304. Did you just ignore me?
Copy !req
305. When you increase your wealth
you fear losing it.
Copy !req
306. To deal with that fear you use money.
Then you try to earn more.
Copy !req
307. My stupid son
doesn't realize how futile that is.
Copy !req
308. My goodness,
Copy !req
309. old men love to lecture people.
Copy !req
310. Oh! It stopped raining!
Copy !req
311. All right!
I guess I'll go do some guard duty.
Copy !req
312. Don't come back!
Copy !req
313. I know you get lonely when I don't visit.
Copy !req
314. Get out already!
Copy !req
315. What a strange duo.
Copy !req
316. They seem to get along better than
the real father and son.
Copy !req
317. Yeah.
Copy !req
318. I feel like
Copy !req
319. I learned a lot of things today.
Copy !req
320. Good for you, big baby.
Copy !req
321. Don't call me that.
Copy !req
322. Too much wealth, huh?
Copy !req
323. You can sow them more thoroughly.
Copy !req
324. But this is all we have, right?
Copy !req
325. It's fine!
Copy !req
326. Don't hold back.
Copy !req
327. Trust what your friend tells you.
Copy !req
328. - Friend?
- What?
Copy !req
329. No way.
Copy !req
330. What's with that reaction?
We're friends, right?
Copy !req
331. Am I wrong?
Copy !req
332. No, you're right…
Copy !req
333. we're friends.
Copy !req
334. "Iron Fist Ketil."
Copy !req
