00:00That woman is a lady, and you are a heathen.
00:04You could bathe all day long, you'd still stink of pig shit.
00:06Have you been watching me, odd other boy?
00:10Should I be marrying you?
00:11Ten pieces of silver for you to walk away.
00:14Does your father know you're here?
00:16Eleven pieces.
00:22How about my sword, Swate and Silver?
00:25Nonsense.
00:28Then I'll marry the girl.
00:30And tonight, I'll plough her.
00:33Why must you talk with her like that?
00:35Perhaps you'd like her for yourself, odd other.
00:38You want her beneath you, am I right?
00:40You're impossible to reason with.
00:42Everything is a game.
00:45I hope for Mildred's sake, your time on this earth is short.
00:48You're not an alderman.
00:50You never shall be.
01:11I wasn't allowed to meet her.
01:13I haven't seen her.
01:15It is the way.
01:16I was unaware of her existence till yesterday.
01:20She'll be plain and pious.
01:21Oh, she'll be pious, all right.
01:23If she was a leg spreader, Alfred would have been on her by now.
01:26Have you seen her?
01:28A distance away.
01:30Plain is a fair description.
01:32How much was the bride price?
01:34Thirty-three pieces.
01:36Which I've paid to her godfather order and which I'll make sure she receives.
01:42I've made promises for vengeance, such.
01:47Why are you here?
01:48Do you know?
01:49She brings land.
01:51I'll become lord under Alfred.
01:52I'll be able to make wealth.
01:54Gather men.
01:55Take back what's mine.
01:57All reasons enough.
01:59Plain or not, she serves her purpose.
02:01The promises you've made will stand.
02:04Blood feuds last a lifetime.
02:06What you do, Arsling,
02:07is you keep living each day until the last.
02:13The priest has arrived, finally.
02:15Let's get this done.
02:18You don't need to get this done.
02:20I'll make a plea to Alfred.
02:28She's here.
02:30Praise God.
02:31You should stand and look respectful, if not entirely clean.
02:34As you look terrified, Albert.
02:45If you could be brief with the ceremony of Father Berger,
02:48I would be grateful I have business with the king.
02:51The bride has been given her price.
02:54She will.
02:59You are witness.
03:01Thank you, lord.
03:04If the betrothed couple would like to join me at the altar.
03:09Enjoy your hands.
03:11Be brief.
03:31May God in his heaven look down with mercy upon his devoted servants, Uhtred and Mildreth.
03:37May he bless their union with love and children and wealth.
03:41And may they, in turn, be sure to give thanks and praise and live each day according to his holy
03:47word.
03:48Amen.
03:49Amen.
03:51Amen.
03:52We are now joined as man and wife in the eyes of God.
04:01Tears of joy.
04:03Tears of joy.
04:06Tears of joy.

07:15my father wanted to find favor with god
07:18so he devoted a tenth of his land to the church
07:21they do not own it but they are entitled to its yield
07:24indeed they demand its yield
07:27even when crops fail and dames raid
07:30god is good
07:31so the bishop took my father to law
07:35how much is the debt

11:40go
11:41go
11:42Let's go.
12:16Let's go.
12:42I should have been wiser.
12:47Though I was blinded by you.
12:58You should eat.
13:00I should eat.
13:02I don't want to eat alone.
13:06God has made me a wife.
13:08There must be a reason.
13:10God is good?
13:39I don't want to.
13:41Oh, God.
13:42Oh, God.
14:06What is it you're looking at?
14:16There's a scar across the land, there.
14:19The never-ending line of Danes on the march.
14:24Ragnar?
14:29By the time word reaches Alfred, it would be too late.
14:33They would need wings.
14:37Go.
14:42Oswald, the town lays in that direction.
14:45If they keep going to the west, in a day or so, they'll come to the fortress at Wareham.
14:50Take your family and the others to the hills till we're sure they've passed. Do it now.
14:54And the Lady Mildreth?
14:56She travels with me. To Winchester.
15:00Yes, Lord.
15:06How many do you see?
15:08The question is how many will follow.
15:15Wessix is being invaded and we're told to wait while he prays.
15:19God is his strength, Utrecht.
15:21He needs to be on horseback, not on his knees.
15:26I hate this place.
15:28It grows worse.
15:32Mildreth.
15:33I was not told you were here. How pleasing to see you.
15:36Lord.
15:37And so much of you.
15:38Is he ready?
15:40The King is ready, as is his council.
15:44With me.
15:52You watched 300 men or more, marched clean across Wessex and you did nothing.
15:57I'm here.
15:59A messenger could have been sent in your place.
16:02A boy!
16:02Why did you not confront these Danes?
16:05You have men, that is your purpose, to create warriors.
16:07I've been given barely 20 men and their wives.
16:09Most of whom work the fields.
16:10It would have been a slaughter lord.
16:12But you chose not to fight.
16:13We'll never know.
16:14A warrior can only die once.
16:15Why die in vain?
16:16The Danes have traveled from either London or East Anglia.
16:19But they're not being watched.
16:20We have been watching the ships, which remain on the Thames.
16:24A mistake.
16:25If Warram is captured, the ships will follow.
16:27300 men will become 3,000.
16:29My advice is that we march without delay.
16:31Don't recall the King seeking your advice.
16:33Leofrich, my trusted man, how many Danes do you witness?
16:35More than 200 by far.
16:38Warriors to a man.
16:40Warram will struggle to hold them back.
16:42The peace is over.
16:45We have no choice but to march on Warram and pray God we arrive before the fortress falls.
16:50You believe it is an invasion, Lord?
16:52Could well be the beginning of a great Dane army, yes.
16:55Council is over.
16:56Father Beocca, Elderman of Wessex, prepare your men.
16:59Father Beocca, I shall pray before we leave.
17:01Yes, my lord.
17:04Father, I wish to speak to the king privately.
17:07I will ask.
17:09But I know that you have still to lend respect.
17:14Elder Manotta, if I may speak out.
17:18You owe my wife half of her bride price.
17:22I paid 33 pieces of silver.
17:24She received only 18.
17:25An honest mistake, she assures me.
17:30Is this true?
17:36Pay him.
17:41Ready the men to march on Warram.
17:46You should know that Mildreth is a joy to plow.
17:49You are heathen.
17:52And you are a bachin.
17:54No, I'm not.
17:59Yes, he is.
18:02Yes, he is.
18:05Yes, he is.
18:09Yes, he is.
18:24Hello.
18:25But his wife.
18:26Yes, he is.
18:28Yes, he is.
18:30Yes.
18:30arms both ears i'll do my best but only if you do the same if they come don't shelter in
18:41a church
18:41or none you go to the hills the woods i'll come for both of you asling kiss her and let's
18:53be on
19:22our way
19:32oh
19:32oh
19:32oh
19:32oh
19:32oh
19:32oh
19:32oh

19:32oh
19:32oh
19:32oh
19:32oh
19:33oh
19:34oh
19:35I love you.
20:04Mildred, my dear, I've been looking for you.
20:06My lady elsewhere, happy to see you, and to see you looking as you do.
20:10It refuses to keep still.
20:12Mine is the same.
20:13How we suffer.
20:15I pray we both survive.
20:17I pray we all survive.
20:19God will decide.
20:21I've missed you, Mildred, and have prayed for you each day.
20:25Poor thing.
20:26Why poor?
20:28Living with the man they foisted onto you.
20:30The pagan, having to take his seed and the like.
20:34Utrecht is decent.
20:36He treats me well.
20:38He does.
20:40God will bless your loyalty.
20:42But with luck, he will fall in battle.
20:45And soon.
20:49Please tell me that you're hungry.
20:51I am.
20:52A little.
20:53Meet me in the kitchens.
20:54I have arranged a meal for the pregnant.
20:56But do not rush prayers.
20:58No.
20:58No, of course not.
21:10Lord, he's not your most humble or devout servant, but I pray.
21:16Keep him safe.
21:18Let him do your work.
21:21Let him see his child.
21:27I was pleased to see your lady today, your wife, carrying a child.
21:32Yes.
21:34It's God's blessing.
21:36It seems like only yesterday I was baptizing you as Osbert, and then again as Utrecht.
21:43What is it you wish to speak about with the king?
21:46It's between myself and the king.
21:48He's watching you, Utrecht.
21:50Good.
21:51Alfred.
21:53He's watching how you behave.
21:54He's judging you as a lord.
21:55He has no right to judge.
21:57He's a king.
22:00He lied to me regarding the marriage.
22:03No, you're referring to the debt.
22:05You know of it?
22:06It's not a secret.
22:07And I urge you to show him you accepted, especially as it is owed to the church.
22:14You must remain calm, Utrecht.
22:16Respectful.
22:26My lord.
22:28I requested a private answer.
22:29Have you, Ian?
22:32No.
22:35There are times when I crave meat and other things.
22:43But I know the gratification would be fleeting, the suffering prolonged.
22:47And so I suffer gruel.
22:50Though my wife will not allow it to be called anything other than broth.
22:54You will be happy to learn that my spies have news.
22:57From where?
22:58From Ireland.
23:00Ivor, the brother of Abba, has been killed there, which would be irrelevant, but for the
23:04fact that Abba wishes to avenge him personally.
23:06This is true.
23:09An Irishman across the sea kills a Dane, and the world changes.
23:14The hand of God.
23:18Is this something Abba would do, abandon Guthrum?
23:21To avenge his brother, yes.
23:23If guided by his sorcerer's story.
23:26He has a sorcerer.
23:30And, uh, what does this sorcerer do, cast spells, perform magic?
23:34He advises, Lord.
23:36Looks for omens.
23:38Signs.
23:39Good and bad.
23:39Oh, what nonsense.
23:42What a miracle, Slaught.
23:44If not magic.
23:45Miracles are performed by God, not man.
23:47The Danes would say the same, that omens are gifts from the gods.
23:49And they are mistaken.
23:51Who gave the sign for Abba to go to Ireland?
23:53It was the hand of your god, or theirs?
23:55There is only one god.
23:56Then you must have spoken to the Danes.
24:01With Abba now in Ireland, Guthrum must now decide whether he will fight alone.
24:05He won't fight alone.
24:08What, that he couldn't win?
24:09He will fear losing too many of his own men.
24:12Yes, Lord.
24:14I am learning that the heathen cares only for personal gain.
24:20A Dane could never suffer my gruel.
24:23Broth, Lord.
24:27You are happy, Elderman who tread with, uh, Mildreth?
24:32Yes, Lord.
24:32She's a good wife.
24:36Though I never would have married her had I known I'd owe 2,000 shillings.
24:39Which increases yearly.
24:40I'm told that on your word the debt can be lifted.
24:43Why should I deny the church 2,000 shillings?
24:45I wasn't aware I'd owe it.
24:46It is not a secret.
24:50Sacrifice and penance are what separate us from the heathen.
24:53I have my broth, you have your debt.
24:59Wessex needs an army, would you agree?
25:01A permanent and formidable army.
25:07Yes, Lord.
25:10England, when it finally emerges, shall need a greater army.
25:15Garrisons of many thousands of men all will need feeding and payment.
25:20It is my intention that all landowners shall contribute to the feeding of this army and its commanders.
25:26And I will need commanders, Uhtred.
25:30Men like the great generals of Rome.
25:35Look upon the debt as a gift.
25:38A means of proving your devotion to Wessex and to England.
25:42If I'd been told the truth on the outset, Lord, I could have...
25:45You still wear the amulet, I see.
25:48To remind me of our right...
25:49And why do you not attend church with your wife?
25:51Why do you not pray to God?
25:54God created everything that surrounds me.
25:56The fields, rivers, the forests, the land is my church.
25:59And I pray each day, Lord, in silence.
26:21He cannot be tamed.
26:23But he can be trusted.
26:26I will not abandon him completely.
26:29He may have a use, I'm sure.
26:43Hear me now.
26:45Where have us fallen?
26:46We march at once.
26:48Every man is to be ready to do as the king asked.
26:51The dames have taken the fortress.
26:54Where have us fallen?
26:55We march at once.
26:56We could be slipping in blood and entrails before the day is out.
27:00With luck.
27:20There's hope for over here.
27:22Up!
27:24Up!
27:30Easy.
27:31There's enough for anything.
27:41Guthrum, they're here.
27:43The Saxon army is gathering.
27:45Is it Alfred?
27:46Yes.
27:49Is the fortress repaired and secure?
27:52Yes.
27:53Good.
27:54He will not attack.
27:56He doesn't need to.
27:57He knows we'll be hungry within days.
27:59We can raid.
28:01No.
28:01He will empty all the grain stores in the surrounding villages.
28:07I have found his church rooms to be strangely quiet and peaceful.
28:14Lord, I didn't march my men halfway across England for them to starve.
28:19I shall be on the ramparts.
28:21We came for war, Ragnar.
28:23But Abba has reneged.
28:25To avenge his brother.
28:27You are here.
28:29Should you not be avenging your father?
28:33When the time is right.
28:35Yes.
28:36When the time is right.
28:40We have taken the first steps against Wessex.
28:45But Abba has left us weak.
28:48He put all our lives at risk.
28:51So until Abba returns, we have to make peace.
29:07So if you are there, God of Rome, strike me down.
29:16We are here to show them how many we are.
29:23We are here to show them how many we are.
29:26That we are here with God.
29:29And that this is our land.
29:30And we are here with God.
29:33And this is our land.
29:35This is our land.
29:38Our Wessex.
29:40This is our England.
29:43And we shall murder any heathen bastard that tries to take it.
30:06You wish to talk, Lord.
30:08I know what they want.
30:10They want time.
30:12Odder, with your guards.
30:13You shall go with me.
30:14Leifrich, you as well.
30:15And fight the Selvix.
30:17Yes, Lord.
30:19Leifrich, what do you make of the fortress?
30:21It looks strong enough, Lord.
30:23No breach.
30:24No signs of lasting damage.
30:27And if we attacked?
30:29We would suffer.
30:32We would suffer.
30:33We'd be lucky to see the inside, Lord.
30:36Good morning, King Alfred.
30:38Guthrum of the Danes.
30:40I, too, am a king now.
30:42Of East Anglia.
30:44You don't need to bow.
30:46I will begin.
30:48I propose a truce.
30:51For any truce to occur, Earl Guthrum, you must leave Wessex once again.
30:55And if I refuse?
30:56We surround you.
30:57Yes, you surround a small fortress, but we Danes surround your entire kingdom.
31:01That said, I have decided I shall leave.
31:04Bessie.
31:05Therefore, I would send for ships.
31:07How many ships?
31:09No more than 15.
31:10Very well.
31:12Your ships have one month in which to arrive.
31:14Not enough time.
31:15Food and ale for one month only, or you will walk back to East Anglia.
31:19Then I will send for 200 ships and hope they arrive before we starve.
31:23One month is not enough.
31:24That is my limit.
31:25You cannot take back the fortress.
31:27You know this.
31:28Food and ale for one month.
31:29No more.
31:30By which time, the sea storms would have arrived.
31:34God's storms.
31:35We will be gone within a month.
31:38Beginning up in the delivery of food and ale.
31:50Goodread.
31:52You will come to me following prayers.
31:53Yes, Lord.
31:54Father Selvitz, you will pray with me.
31:56Yes, Lord.
32:02Please, sit.
32:07Thank you, Lord.
32:11I have a task for you, Father.
32:14You only have to speak it.
32:17As a guarantee of the peace, you will be given up as a hostage one of ten.
32:22The Danes, too, will give ten in exchange.
32:27Lord, the pagans do not value priests.
32:32You might just as well offer a hound.
32:34I hear Guthrum is curious about our faith.
32:37I would like you to become his teacher.
32:40Provide instruction.
32:43And if he refuses to be a student?
32:47Then persist.
32:48Gently.
32:49With humor, as is your manner.
32:53Make no mistake.
32:56Should Guthrum ever consent to being baptized,
33:00then this war is over.
33:03England is ours.
33:07This would be truly God's work you do.
33:12Forgive me, Lord.
33:14But I cannot help but feel afraid.
33:17They are not content to simply kill a priest.
33:22Fear is within all of us.
33:26As is strength.
33:30Fear.
33:56Lord, I'd be more useful as a warrior for when the truce fails.
33:59Oh, the truce will hold for a time.
34:02And in that time,
34:03ye will be my eyes and ears inside the fortress.
34:05Listening for what?
34:06For Abba.
34:07If and when you hear of his return,
34:09you will escape.
34:11And if I'm in chains?
34:12Our men here shall disband.
34:13There are fields to work.
34:14But I will build a beacon on the hill.
34:16You will escape and light the fire.
34:18Lord, you know that escape will be near impossible.
34:21If Abba returns,
34:22the hostages will be killed.
34:23And the Danes will attack.
34:25Upon sight of this first beacon being lit,
34:27other fires will start
34:28and the whole of Wessex will be called to arms.
34:30And if I refuse to become a hostage?
34:31And another man shall light the beacon.
34:33Why can't you accept me?
34:35I've been nothing but truthful to you.
34:37Why am I always being put to the test?
34:38Why do not show your king the respect that is due?
34:41Because you, Uhtred of wherever,
34:42you do not see me as your king.
34:44You do not see my god as your god.
34:46I am not finished with you yet.
34:51Guthrum is waiting to hear of Abba's return from Ireland.
34:54I need to know when this occurs.
34:56Sooner rather than later.
34:57You are the only man
35:00who could possibly provide this information sooner.
35:04Yes, it is possible that you will die,
35:06but it is likely that we shall all die.
35:11You will go to the Danes.
35:13How you go,
35:14as a Saxon hostage
35:15or as a Viking warrior,
35:16becomes your choice.
35:23I'll do this, you ask.
35:28But if my child is born while I'm captive,
35:30I ask that you send what?
35:32Of course.
35:33And should you die as a captive,
35:35rest assured,
35:36your dead shall die with you.
35:50Will they treat us well?
35:52You are one of them.
35:55If I am one of them,
35:56then why am I a hostage?
35:58They'll treat us well
35:59for as long as the truce holds.
36:01If it fails,
36:02they'll kill us all.
36:04Starting with the priest.
36:07I have made my peace.
36:08I am ready.
36:10Good evening.
36:11God bless you all.
36:13Poor wretched.
36:15And us, Father,
36:16what are we?
36:17We are fortunate, Lord.
36:18We know God.
36:20Although, granted,
36:21I'm in no hurry to meet him.
36:22Let us pray he feels the same.
36:25Amen.
36:49Is this rabble
36:51what so many are afraid of?
36:53I'm full of children!
36:59Enough!
37:01Enough!
37:04They are our guests
37:05for a while.
37:06There's one rule only.
37:09At nightfall,
37:11you will gather and sleep
37:12at the church.
37:14The doors will be barred.
37:16At daybreak,
37:17you will then be free
37:18to walk,
37:19talk,
37:20jump,
37:20hump,
37:21carry weapons.
37:22My men have orders
37:24not to kill you.
37:26Unless you deserve
37:28to be killed.
37:33I am Gophrum.
37:34And one day,
37:36I shall be your king.
37:37Do you understand
37:38what I have said?
37:39You will all say,
37:41yes, Lord.
37:43Yes, Lord.
37:44I did not hear you.
37:51I understand you, Lord.
37:54Maybe I will make a present
37:55of you to Abba.
37:56Should he ever return
37:57from Ireland?
37:57He may not.
37:59That's possible.
38:00But then his men
38:01will become my men.
38:02And I will honor him
38:03by killing you myself.
38:07With arrows, perhaps.
38:09Ragnar, Ragnar, son!
38:11Yeah?
38:12You know this one well.
38:13Keep him out of my sights.
38:14Take him to the church.
38:16Feed him.
38:24Now you are where you belong.
38:26Now I am with my brother.
38:28I will remind you
38:28what it is like
38:29to be a Dane
38:30and make you stay.
38:33Brito's here.
38:51I dream about you, Vixen.
38:55I'm not surprised to hear it.
38:58You've grown up.
39:04You should know
39:04I'm with Ragnar now.
39:05He's my man.
39:08That's good.
39:11That's good.
39:14You should know
39:15that I'm married.
39:17Married?
39:20You have grown up.
39:21He's married?
39:23Yes, he is married.
39:25Time is moving quicker
39:26than I thought.
39:27Tonight, we get drunk.
39:29We must.
39:31I need to be inside the church.
39:33No.
39:33Tonight, we get drunk.
39:35I'll take you to the church myself
39:37while we sleep,
39:39where we fall.
39:40And, uh,
39:42we must talk of the future.
39:57Ragnar!
40:00Ragnar!
40:01Ragnar!
40:02Ragnar!
40:03I need to piss.
40:07I'll return.
40:09Ragnar!
40:11Ragnar!
40:24I haven't laughed so much in a long time.
40:27Then you haven't been living.
40:29Or as Robin would say, tomorrow we die.
40:32When did he ever say that?
40:34When you were out chopping wood.
40:40Well, I actually do need to piss.
40:44What you need to do is to stop drinking.
40:47Tomorrow we die.
40:56He's happy to see you.
40:57I've missed him.
41:01I miss you both.
41:10Are you his wife?
41:13I'm with him.
41:16Is she beautiful?
41:18Her name's Milgram.
41:20Yes, she is beautiful.
41:25She carries my child.
41:32Who decided you should marry?
41:35Alfred.
41:39I have the land I asked for in Wessex.
41:45You swear an oath to Alfred.
41:47You marry for Alfred.
41:49You have land given to you by Alfred.
41:51Your wife carries your child.
41:53And yet you give him up as a hostage by Alfred.
41:57Are you a spy, Udred?
42:02The first sign of Abba returning, I am to escape.
42:07But I know that when Abba returns, the hostages will be killed.
42:11Alfred's not fond of me.
42:14Refuse him.
42:16Refuse to be a hostage.
42:17Join us.
42:20I should ask you, Udred.
42:22Not that it matters, but I should ask.
42:25Is it a problem to you, the breeders with Mina?
42:31No.
42:32I'm happy about it.
42:34I swear.
42:36Not that she cares what you think.
42:38I would hump her regardless.
42:42With affection.
42:43And with my permission.
42:45I know.
42:48Do you know Udred's to be a father?
42:52A father?
42:54When?
42:55Soon, I'm told.
42:58You would want to see it?
43:01Yes.
43:02I hope to return to my wife and child.
43:07Ragnar.
43:09I'll be with you to avenge our father.
43:12Kjartan will pay.
43:13You should have joined me a month ago.
43:15With Breda.
43:16I had sworn an oath.
43:18To a proxy Saxon king.
43:20Abba wanted to see me dead.
43:21There was nowhere else to go.
43:23No, I have thought about that night in the woods.
43:25You had the choice to be a Saxon or a dame.
43:27No, I had sworn an oath.
43:30You should have joined me.
43:32I'll be with you to kill Kjartan.
43:37I will take you to the church.
43:41To your bed.
44:03I'll be with you.
44:08It's a son, lady.
44:10A handsome boy.
44:17You will be Uhtred, son of Uhtred.
44:28Good morning, Uhtred.
44:31Morning, Father.
44:33It's raining again.
44:35One day seems like the next.
44:38It does.
44:41Still, at least we're alive to feel it.
44:46Are your conversations with Guthrum?
44:49See a Christian yet?
44:50I believe the time is near, I do.
44:53I often leave him to contemplate alone, in church.
44:57Guthrum likes to contemplate war and kingdoms.
45:01The kingdom of heaven is his to share.
45:04I've told him.
45:07A man can change, Uhtred.
45:13Onward.
45:14God bless you.
45:15May you enjoy a good day.
45:16Thank you, Father.
45:18He is the king of kings.
45:22Capable of great, great things.
45:25Such as what?
45:27Such as miracles.
45:30Miracles?
45:31Such as what?
45:33Such as you, Lord.
45:38You are a miracle.
45:41He has made you strong yet merciful.
45:46He has made you proud yet humble.
45:52He has made you eager to learn.
45:55He has given you free will, hoping that you will find the courage to choose him above all else.
46:02And I believe, I truly believe, he will be rewarded.
46:14I have a message for Guthrum.
46:15It's in the church.
46:31Lord, may I speak?
46:33Freely.
46:34Auburn and his army have returned from Ireland.
46:37They're coming ashore north of here, at the seven.
46:39And my fleet is where?
46:41They left London several days ago, and are nearly here, Lord.
46:45Every last ship will be here.
46:46Every man will be with you.
46:48That is good news.
46:54I dispatched you to heaven.
46:59No need to thank me.
47:15Father, Abba has returned.
47:20Did they say?
47:24He has.
47:27Man, the peace is over.
47:30Prepare for battle.
47:39The Saxon hottingers, kill them all.
47:45Catch him!
47:46Get him!
47:49Get him!
47:52Get him!
47:53Get him!
47:54Get him!
47:54Get him!
47:55Get him!
47:56Get him!
47:57Get him!
47:58Get him!
48:15Ragnar, please, step aside.
48:20You know all the hostages have to die.
48:23Then kill him.
48:25You're welcome to kill him.
48:26You have to kill me first.
48:28I could have helped him manage without this.
48:31He's a Saxon.
48:33He's a traitor.
48:34He's an enemy.
48:36Once you get to him, you have to kill me.
48:40My men, they will not follow you.
48:53I will give you one last charity.
48:56Release him.
48:58Without a horse.
49:09Are you all right?
49:11I have no words.
49:13You should go.
49:14Go and see a child.
49:15Go.
49:19Yes.
49:20I'll be with you.
49:24You're supposed to be.
49:24I'll be with you.
49:54Oh, my God.
50:28Oh, my God.
