Vikings

- Ship oars! - Hold back!

Get ready!

And another!

Our King is returned!

Welcome back, my King!

This is your kingdom?

No. My kingdom is far greater.

My kingdom reaches to the far ends of this land.

My kingdom is in here.

I don't like the look of it.

And yet it's your new home!

Our warriors went to England and exacted revenge

for the death of Ragnar Lothbrok.

Our Great Army was victorious everywhere!

Some of the leaders of the army

decided to remain in England.

Some wanted to pursue other dreams, like my brother.

But don't worry.

Halfdan went exploring with Bjorn Ironside,

so what harm can come to him?

You know where my heart lies.

It lies here, with you.

You know I want to make this town

the capital of Norway.

It has always been my dream!

This woman is Astrid.

She is part of my dream.

Sit.

Get used to it.

Ya!

Slave. Do you know who I am?

Of course.

You are Ivar.

Ivar?

Is that it?

No. Ivar the Boneless.

You don't seem afraid of me.

No.

We are expecting to be attacked by the Saxons.

They have a large army outside of these walls.

We must ask the gods for help.

We must offer them a sacrifice.

Would you be willing to offer yourself as a sacrifice?

I will do anything you ask me to do.

Then take off your clothes.

Come closer.

Kiss me.

I... I don't understand.

I know you're a cripple, Boneless.

But let me tell you something.

Your deformity means that the gods favor you especially.

I've always known that.

I always look for people who are born different.

Because that's the true sign.

You are a very special person.

Nobody else here is like you.

You are destined for great things.

You are free to go.

- Do you not want me to... - No.

No, you don't understand.

You are a free woman now.

Leave.

Move the torches over there!

Keep those barrages burning on the perimeter!

Your Highness. Your Grace.

What news?

The Northmen have not secured the Roman walls of the town.

They remain undefended.

That's where we enter.

Yes.

Tomorrow we attack York.

And may God be with us.

Why did you really decide to come with me?

Why did you go into the wilderness?

You had something to prove.

So do I.

What do you want to achieve?

My brother loves fame more than I do.

For me,

I just want to live.

But I want to live with the greatest intensity.

I want to feel every moment of my life,

as long as it lasts.

I want to be more than just alive,

if you understand me.

Oh, I do.

Sindric.

What keeps you awake?

I have been thinking.

Where we are going,

it will be much better to appear as traders

rather than raiders.

So?

So, you should send most of your fleet home.

Better to proceed with, at most, three of your ships.

But I will feel naked.

Better naked than dead.

Men at arms!

Face forward!

Unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

Let me now be ashamed.

Let not mine enemies triumph over me.

Let them be ashamed,

which transgressed with our cause.

Show me thy way O, Lord.

Teach me Thy path.

For Thou art the God of my salvation,

on Thee do I wait all the day.

- Amen. - Amen.

My boys, you have a care for each other.

And you do your duty.

I am sure we shall.

Come, brother.

Mount up! Prepare to march!

Prepare to march!

On the colors!

- That's him. - Who?

Aethelwulf, King Ecbert's son.

Oh, and he brought his own sons.

Like lambs to the slaughter.

Hvitserk, let's go.

- My King! - Shh, shh.

We meet at the cathedral.

And may God be with us.

Follow me.

With me!

Get out! Get out! Move! Move!

Ah!

Alfred! Back!

This way!

Where's another way?

Here!

There's no other way! We must do this!

Go!

Ah!

Lord, forgive the work I must do this day.

Alfred!

Father!

Go!

Where's your brother? Where's your brother?

Wait!

Charge!

Aethelred!

Son!

Fight for your God!

Come on, boy! Move!

Oh, clap your hands, all ye people.

Shout unto God with the voice of triumph!
