00:00I love you.
00:16And you think this love is a good thing?
00:23Yes.
00:26Don't you?
00:36I'm not sure.
00:39For my love, I will give everything.
00:42Myself, my family, even my gods.
00:48What will you do for your love?
00:53More.
00:56I would set aside my destiny for you.
01:03The promise of being king of Norway.
01:09So you see how dangerous we are?
01:14But it doesn't have to be.
01:17As king, I can stop the hatred.
01:20We would have an open country.
01:22Run like Kattegat.
01:24All fates can be worshipped without fear.
01:27We encourage people to look for what we share as Vikings instead of hate our differences.
01:34We?
01:36Yes, we.
01:37All that is possible with you.
01:49All that is possible.
01:51We will be within a couple of days.
01:53Let's go.
01:54We will be looking for him.
01:55In the end of the day.
02:00No one sees me.
02:02It will not be over.
02:04We will not be over.
02:06They will be over.
02:07I'll never be over.
02:09Let's go.
02:11Oh, my God.
02:41Oh, my God.
03:11Oh, my God.
03:12Oh, my God.
03:13Oh, my God.
03:14Well, this is good news for me now, isn't it?
03:19You must seize this opportunity to make some changes.
03:22He anticipated that would be your reaction, and therefore, before he left, he married Emma.
03:30In the middle of the night?
03:33That is a problem.
03:35Yes, but not your main problem, sire.
03:38What do you mean, not my main problem?
03:42Excuse me!
03:44What are you doing there?
03:45Your Highness, may I introduce King Canute's father?
03:48King Svein Forkbeard.
03:52And you must be the boy king.
04:03Last time I saw you, you were a child.
04:06Do you remember?
04:08I don't.
04:10Up north?
04:10Well, you were with your father as he was paying tribute.
04:16I like your father.
04:18He paid well to get rid of the Vikings.
04:21Well, if Dengel would get you out of England, I'd be happy to try that as well.
04:25Well, how long do you expect King Canute to be away, Your Highness?
04:30Well, he's at war, which means he'll be there as long as it takes to secure Denmark from its enemies.
04:36And in the meantime, I take it, you intend to rule in his place.
04:40I do.
04:44King Edmund, you will find that my son and I, we approached problems very differently.
04:50His far thinking, patient and fair.
04:52King Canute, I'm none of those things.
04:57So, with that in mind, could you please explain to me why you think that Canute has chosen to let an insolent pup like you live?
05:10Your Highness.
05:11No.
05:14Let him find his own words to describe his value.
05:19King Canute understands that I provide an important connection to the Saxon nobles, who are necessary for his support.
05:27Oh, but the nobles have already sworn their oath to him, correct?
05:30Yes.
05:31Managing them, however, requires a delicate touch.
05:35One which I provide.
05:38Good.
05:41Good.
05:45Because
05:46delicate
05:47is another thing that I am not.
06:00here.
06:09I know this child.
06:34Cora did this.
06:38Oops.
06:40Go.
06:42Now.
06:50Enter.
06:55Grandfather.
06:57Keitha.
07:00I've heard you are now a lady-in-waiting.
07:03So how is everything?
07:05I enjoy being here very much.
07:07Welcome, your highness.
07:19I am...
07:19Emma.
07:21My son's new queen.
07:24I would like to talk.
07:26My lady.
07:39Are you a cook, Queen Emma?
07:41A cook?
07:43No.
07:44My mother was a cook.
07:46And a very good one, too.
07:49She'd cook over a large fireplace.
07:52Many pots.
07:53Stews, roasts, soups.
07:55All going at the same time.
07:57Used to amaze me how she somehow managed to bring everything to the table, cooked to perfection.
08:05I don't know how she did it.
08:06My son, Canute, is not a cook, either.
08:13But he thinks he is.
08:16He has pots all over his fire.
08:19Norway.
08:20Denmark.
08:20England.
08:22Iceland.
08:23His great northern empire.
08:27I'm not too sure he can manage it.
08:29Which is one of the reasons he married me.
08:34Because you can manage England?
08:36Yes.
08:37I admire your confidence, but I distrust your ability.
08:42Do you distrust my ability, or your son's judgment?
08:46Two good questions, Queen Emma.
08:51If I knew the answer to the first, I wouldn't doubt the second.
08:56Then allow me to prove both.
09:07Come on.
09:28Come on.
09:28Come on.
09:35Spread out, look for survivors.
10:05Spread out, look for survivors.
10:35I am Elderman Siegferth of Wessex, Your Highness.
10:42Wessex is the oldest of the Saxon bloodlines.
10:45And? Does that make Wessex special?
10:48It does indeed, Tire.
10:50And does this.
10:52The House of Wessex is also exempt from paying royal taxes.
10:56That is a binding promise from King Æthelred to my father.
10:59What did your father do to procure such a generous promise?
11:02Elderman Siegferth.
11:07He saved the king in battle at York, sire.
11:11At York? Indeed.
11:14Against who?
11:18Against yourself, sire.
11:19Keep this safe.
11:26Siegferth of Wessex.
11:29It's a railing of bygone time.
11:32You'll pay your taxes like everyone else.
11:34Elderman Wolfiara of Sussex.
11:39Your Highness, surely you will intercede on my behalf?
11:43You are the thread that connects past and present.
11:48And know of the deep Saxon bombs.
11:51Godwin, when I challenged the Vikings on the bridge,
11:58do you recall the esteemed Elderman from Wessex at my side?
12:03No, Your Highness.
12:05I can attest with certainty that Elderman Siegferth was not present.
12:08Your Highness, I was...
12:10I was unavailable.
12:12As I am to you now.
12:33Have you been here before?
12:35No.
12:36I'd only heard stories.
13:06It must have been incredible.
13:17It saddens me to think of all who prayed here.
13:20You could hate something this much.
13:37They're not killing people.
13:40They're cleansing the land.
13:42Rubbing away all signs of our pagan past.
13:45Like a stain.
13:50It's all right.
14:10We won't hurt you.
14:13Come.
14:16Come.
14:17You're safe now.
14:18It's all right.
14:20This is her.
14:36Do not be afraid.
14:38We are friends here.
14:40You are Freadis?
14:43Yes.
14:45How do you know my name?
14:47The leader told us he would come.
14:48He only spared us so we could give you his message.
14:53What message?
14:54He said that his God has ordered him to destroy Katakad.
14:59And to kill you.
15:00All dead.
15:11What are we waiting for?
15:12What are we waiting for?
15:14I say we ride after Kore and make him pay.
15:16From his tracks, he has at least a hundred horsemen.
15:20We must be smart.
15:21Go back to Katakad and tell HÃ¥kon what we found.
15:24We'll take care of the dead and follow with the survivors.
15:26We need to know where Kore is.
15:30I'll track him and meet you back at Katakad.
15:32I'll come with you.
15:33Be safe.
15:36We camp here tonight.
15:38Build fires for the dead.
15:40Freadis.
15:42Kore will pay for this act.
15:44I promise you justice.
15:45I don't need your promise.
15:48I can deliver justice myself.
15:59Come on!
16:01Kill her!
16:04Kill her!
16:05There he is!
16:09You do nothing with all of justice.
16:10Kill him and run away!
16:12Kill her!
16:20Kill her!
16:21Kill her!
16:21Kill her!
16:22Kill her!
16:27Kill her!
16:30Kill her!
16:30Kill her!
16:30Kill her!
16:31Kill her!
16:31Kill her!
16:31well done i did not anticipate your move at the wall
16:39you were the faster horseman your highness you forced me to improvise
16:46so how do you think we should handle the new viking
16:56handle him i take it you don't feel at home in forkbeard's court
17:02it was bad enough dealing with canute but his father is an abomination
17:06i hate it and i hate myself for being an accomplice to this travesty
17:12how much so
17:15how much do you hate it
17:19your sentiments are not felt in isolation
17:26your highness
17:29are you saying that there are others who would back a resistance
17:32i'm saying there are those that would back a leader who has an answer to the
17:34question
17:37how much do you hate it
17:43your highness you sent for me
17:46godwin i did
17:55my son canute told me that you were a man to be counted on
18:00i've tried to be your highness
18:02my highness i haven't been here long but it's clear to see that my son is facing threats
18:09they may seem small now but they will grow
18:12i agree
18:13i agree
18:14rulers must anticipate threats
18:16and address them
18:16and address them
18:17oh
18:21seek ye for the wessex
18:24come
18:25i've been thinking about your petition
18:27please
18:30i cannot get your petition out of my head
18:40and i do wish my son canute could have heard it
18:43as he may have responded differently
18:46do you think so
18:48do you think so
18:49oh yes
18:50yes sir
18:51i am sometimes too anxious to say just what's in my head
18:54whereas canute is a
18:56a better listener
18:57but
18:59despite our differences
19:01i'm sure that both canute and i would agree that
19:04your response
19:06could only be
19:07regarded
19:08as an insult
19:10oh no no no
19:12no your highness
19:13it was
19:13it was not an insult
19:15i was merely appealing to king edmund because
19:17i know why
19:24and so what my son
19:26as i was saying
19:38canute appreciate your loyalty
19:41but i cannot have a man
19:44of your lowly rank work for me
19:46therefore
19:48on behalf of my son
19:52i hereby make you
19:54godwin
19:56the isle of wessex
19:58i've been told it's the oldest saxon bloodline
20:06i'm just mad
20:17you
20:18you
20:21do
20:25you
20:29you
20:33Are you sure you trust these people?
20:40No, not at all.
20:42Olaf!
20:44My Christian brother!
20:47Welcome!
20:57They seem to like us.
21:01Brother Cora!
21:03They're at least a full day ahead of us.
21:15We should push on.
21:16No.
21:17They're not heading towards Catty Cat.
21:21And the horses need rest.
21:26War is coming.
21:28And your name will gain more glory.
21:31So much that it will be known all across the Viking world.
21:37Is that not what you wish?
21:38To have a name greater than your father's.
21:47What do you know of my father?
21:49I know he killed men in Iceland and in Norway.
21:55But my family followed him to Greenland out of respect for his courage.
22:03They bow their heads out of fear and not respect.
22:11When I was young, I went with my father to collect the lamb that was owed to him.
22:21And when my father couldn't claim it because the lamb hadn't been born yet,
22:25I watched him beat the man in front of his children until he could no longer stand.
22:34There is a darkness in him.
22:38He cannot control.
22:39And I share it.
22:45If it is true, why have I never seen it?
22:53Because when I'm with you, it goes away.
22:56And I'm calm.
22:57And when I'm with you, I can do great things.
23:06And the darkness does not overcome me.
23:10I can't explain it.
23:11I can't explain it.
23:42Princess Geitha.
23:46Who is it?
23:48It's our, your highness.
23:50With a visitor.
23:56I have come to deliver a wedding gift.
24:01But it's beautiful.
24:04It was my mother's.
24:06Given to her by her father-in-law, King Edgar.
24:09It was meant to remind her of her importance to England.
24:13I hope you will accept it in the same spirit.
24:18Thank you, Edmund.
24:22The great Olaf Haralsson.
24:32Slaughter of the worshippers of Thor at Auxilia.
24:35And Herthala.
24:37Cleanser of the heathens.
24:39Seawolf.
24:40Here.
24:42Among us.
24:43Why?
24:51I mean to unite Norway under the banner of Christ.
24:57And for that...
24:58We need Kattegat.
24:59The real seat of Norway's power.
25:04And to take Kattegat, I need you.
25:09Did you hear that, old one?
25:12The time has arrived.
25:14I have been waiting for you, brother Olaf.
25:20I have been waiting for this moment.
25:24You can count on my help.
25:28What do you require for your services?
25:31Silver?
25:33I have no interest in silver, but I do have a price.
25:38Well, let me hear it, then.
25:45God has instructed me to build a great church in Kattegat.
25:53With a spire that reaches to heaven.
25:58A beacon so that all who see it may know the love of Jesus.
26:03And that is my price.
26:05You can have your church.
26:11As long as Kattegat remains a key trading port in my kingdom.
26:15Of course.
26:17Once it has been cleansed of the heathen.
26:19As we did with Uppsala.
26:22You destroyed Uppsala?
26:24Yes.
26:26I burned it to the ground.
26:28Along with its sham priests and false gods.
26:32Didn't I?
26:35Who are you talking to?
26:37Just this old pagan seer whose son has set.
26:42It is I who is the cross that carries the sword.
26:45Not this girl you prophesied.
26:48What girl?
26:50A heathen.
26:52Named Freytis.
26:53Ignore him, brother Olaf.
27:02I've just tried to tell you I'm mad.
27:07Do we have an agreement?
27:10Huh?
27:10Huh?
27:11Skål.
27:22Brother Kora.
27:24Skål!
27:25Skål!
27:26Those are Olaf's colors.
27:41He is during Korda.
27:56Get up.
28:00That action means nothing to me.
28:04We are here, Your Highness.
28:07Our presence counts for something.
28:08But does it count for me?
28:10We swore an oath to Canute to support two kings.
28:13But that was before he married Emma.
28:14What difference does that make?
28:16A great deal of difference.
28:18Should Canute die before me, the throne returns to England.
28:20But should I die first, Canute's existing and future heirs shall have sole claim.
28:27And if his marriage is a true indication of his heart, you will be kneeling to Viking kings for a long time.
28:33And it's clear that Forkbeard intends to enforce that.
28:37The question then is when?
28:40No.
28:41The initial question is who.
28:45Who here will support our English king?
28:56You have your answer.
29:15You have your answer.
29:15Are you thinking about your lucky win the other day?
29:29Lucky?
29:30A pound of silver if you beat me again.
29:33Surely you're not scared.
29:36On the contrary, Your Highness.
29:38I simply do not wish to embarrass you.
29:40And that is the king we are following.
29:50My lord, can you move?
30:11Quickly, come down.
30:12The rope.
30:13Come on.
30:14Here, here.
30:36You.
30:37Yes, Your Highness.
30:39Me.
30:39But why?
30:41I have the nobles.
30:43I have the power.
30:44That is precisely why.
30:46I promise you, this will not take long.
31:00His horse stumbled!
31:02We saw.
31:02Oh, my God.
31:05My God.
31:05I just...
31:05Give him room.
31:06He's trying to speak.
31:24Thank God you were here to comfort him.
31:30The king is dead.
31:31No.
31:38Only one is.
31:42Sire, your loyal subject...
31:45Stop.
31:45Stop.
31:49What is your news?
31:51It is Edmund, sire.
31:54The young king is dead.
31:58His horse failed him.
31:59Who witnessed this?
32:07We all did, sire.
32:10We were with him at the end.
32:12It was an act of God.
32:13The king Edmund is dead.
32:21Long live King Canute.
32:24Long live King Canute.
32:26Long live King Canute.
32:28Olaf has joined forces with Korda.
32:44Olaf.
32:45We recognize his banners.
32:47But there are many other clans I do not know.
32:50It is a large force and growing.
32:52What about appealing to friendly cities for help?
32:55We have.
32:55But many have already been crushed by Korda.
32:58Then we should prepare immediately.
33:00And learn what we can about their numbers and strength.
33:03Agreed.
33:04Send spies and see what they can find.
33:06I am glad you have chosen to stay and fight with us.
33:19But it has placed you against your brother.
33:22My brother has clearly made his choice.
33:25And I have made mine.
33:26I am not fighting for the throne of Norway.
33:30I am fighting for Kattegat.
33:48My lady, your highness.
33:50Leave me with him.
33:56Leave me with him.
34:26Leave me with him.
34:56I have told you you were the first to reach him.
34:59I was, your highness.
35:04And he was dead when you discovered him?
35:07No.
35:07But his injuries were extensive.
35:12Clearly.
35:15And his pain must have been terrible.
35:17It was.
35:18It was.
35:20Especially from the tiny cut beneath his left breast, just below his heart.
35:27Of all his wounds, it was the most lethal as it pierced his heart and filled his body with blood.
35:32Strange things happen in these types of accidents, your highness.
35:36Strange.
35:37I would call it miraculous.
35:39Godwin.
36:09I arrived in this country as a 15-year-old girl who could not speak the language and was a piece of property.
36:14I am now the queen of an expanding empire.
36:18And a wealthy woman in my own right, if you think that I am incapable of taking care of both my husband's interests and my own.
36:26You do so at your own peril.
36:38I'm beginning to see what my son admires in you.
36:41I'm beginning to see what my son admires in you.
37:11We are in the hands of the gods.
37:16I prefer my fate to be in my own hands.
37:21You make it very difficult sometimes.
37:26To love you.
37:32I want to keep you safe.
37:35I don't need that.
37:37I know, Koro.
37:38And I know my brother.
37:40He's self-centered.
37:41Fain.
37:42Seeks only power.
37:46Sounds like someone else I know.
37:48We arrived last night.
37:49Mother wouldn't let us deserve you.
37:53Mother wouldn't let us deserve you.
37:58How very thoughtful of her.
37:59Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:04Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:05Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:10Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:11Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:12Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:17Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:18Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:22How very thoughtful of her.
38:23How very thoughtful of her.
38:24Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:29God bless you.
38:30Lord.
38:31Let me speak to your mother alone.
38:32Let me speak to your mother.
38:34Let me speak to your mother.
38:35Good morning, Alvi-Vu.
38:45What has brought you all the way to England?
38:48The crown that is due to me as the wife of its king.
38:53If I remember correctly, you and my son were hand-farted in the pagan way, as he had yet not converted.
39:05In the eyes of God, you were never married.
39:08I'll let you explain that technicality to your grandsons.
39:14I'll be happy to. It's the way the world works.
39:20My son has made his commitment to Queen Emma.
39:24Then he should be prepared to lose Norway.
39:29Jarl Olaf visited me upon his return from England.
39:32He shared with me his plans to unite Norway.
39:36He then attempted to buy Denmark's fleet for an invasion of Kattegat.
39:41You mean Canute's fleet?
39:43Canute and his army are locked in a land battle in his absence.
39:46Fleet answers to me.
39:50You brought the fleet to England?
39:54Where is it?
39:56Near, but far.
39:59Out of your sight, but close enough.
40:02To receive my command.
40:13I could have you killed right now.
40:17Quartered in front of me.
40:20Or tortured.
40:23I particularly don't like fire.
40:25But by the time you learnt the fleet's whereabouts, it would be too late.
40:32England is a country with many places to hide, and if they don't hear from me,
40:36if I give an hour on a certain day, they sail for Kattegat under Olaf's flag.
40:43Only I can call them off.
40:45Are you here to talk or to threaten?
40:55I have a problem.
40:56I have a problem.
40:59You killed my father, Leif Eriksson.
41:02As his son, I must defend his name.
41:04Must you?
41:04You know as well as I do, I was within my rights to defend myself.
41:11You also know, if you were to fight me now, there is a very good chance I would kill you.
41:16Because you're a great warrior, Anna.
41:20And the people of Kattegat, they need you to defend them now.
41:31So you understand my problem?
41:33Look, I've only heard stories of Odin's table.
41:39I know if I was ever asked to join the Eye in here,
41:42I had to look the All-Father in the eye.
41:48I would much rather do so as a warrior.
41:51Who died fighting for his people and their beliefs,
41:54instead of his father's tainted name.
42:02Randa's approach!
42:03All scouts, are you coming?
42:09Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
42:11Peace, peace.
42:19We must find out their strength.
42:22If they are weak,
42:24we should not be waiting in here,
42:26but attacking
42:26before their forces grow any stronger.
42:29I agree.
42:31I'll go with you.
42:32We can spare neither of you.
42:33Let's get back to work.
42:37Let's get back to work.
42:37Let's get back to work.
42:39And who are you?
42:44I'm Queen Alfievu of Denmark,
42:48and the wife of King Canute.
42:50I'm Queen Alfievu of Denmark,
42:52and the wife of King Canute.
42:54and the wife of King Canute.
43:00I'm impressed with how effortlessly you've made yourself comfortable in my home.
43:04It is my home now.
43:07It is my home now.
43:08Really?
43:08Really?
43:09Really?
43:09Really?
43:10Yes, sir.
43:11It is my home now.
43:13I'm impressed with how effortlessly you've made yourself comfortable in my home.
43:22It is my home now.
43:32Really?
43:37I've heard of delusionary people such as yourself.
43:40Please tell me how you managed to convince yourself of such a fantasy.
43:49I'm told you're an intelligent woman, Emma of Normandy.
43:54Surely you're astute enough to realize that if a wolf is roaming your halls and warming itself by your fires,
44:01it must be considering you its dinner.
44:10You look troubled.
44:19I have many worries.
44:24Yes, I just met them.
44:28All of the traders are gathering armies to steal Norway.
44:32And Arthia who controls Kanut's fleet.
44:36She's hidden it somewhere here.
44:38I have sent men to search.
44:40It could take days, weeks.
44:42I have hours.
44:43If Olaf is allowed to take Norway, the entire north is threatened.
44:53And Arthia who knows it.
44:55I don't expect a woman like you to understand what that means to a Viking.
45:06But I do know.
45:08The blood of your people runs in my veins.
45:10I've never been to the north, but I feel your anger.
45:14I feel your pain.
45:15I fell in love with your son because he convinced me to trust him.
45:23He saved my children from Olaf.
45:26And now I must repay that trust.
45:31I know this country.
45:33I can help you.
45:35If you let me.
45:45I can help you.
46:15The gods have been good to us.
46:18Substained and protected us.
46:20Now we face a new challenge.
46:23In which we must ask their help.
46:27We call for a messenger.
46:29To journey to Asgord.
46:31And plead our cause.
46:33To the chief of the Asir.
46:36I will.
46:37I will.
46:38I will.
46:39I will.
46:45What is your name?
46:50Aiden Hoskodson.
47:00Do you willingly go to Odin?
47:03And deliver our cry for help?
47:05I do.
47:05I do.
47:07I promise.
47:08To be worthy of Kat Kat.
47:18Prepare him for his journey.
47:20Let's keep going.
47:46Queen Alfie.
47:58My name is Earl Godwin.
48:03I'm an advisor to your husband, King Canute.
48:05It's refreshing to be greeted properly.
48:12It befits you.
48:14But.
48:15Despite your confidence.
48:16It may be hard to keep you at the king's side.
48:18I've come to offer my assistance.
48:21I've made my terms clear with Sven Forkbeard.
48:23Why would I need your help?
48:24Because you may have overestimated your leverage with him.
48:27And underestimated Emma's.
48:29I know her.
48:30And believe I can help you in your quest.
48:33Why?
48:34What interest do you have in my quest?
48:38Let's just say I have my own history with Emma.
48:41Let's just say I have my own history with Emma.
49:11I have my own history.
49:39I have a shield.
49:39Let's go.
50:09Prodigal brother returns.
50:39Prodigal brother returns.
51:09Prodigal brother returns.
51:39Prodigal brother returns.
