00:04Get out, you drunk bastard!
00:11Is he here?
00:13With a woman who's not his wife.
00:19Your friend is here.
00:28Now sit.
00:30Will I spoil the gift of a last night of freedom?
00:32Sit.
00:43Do you believe I've betrayed you, Arslan?
00:46I don't.
00:47Make no mistake.
00:49I'd have had 20 men or more ready to swear against you.
00:54I'm here to tell you that I am better than you right now.
00:57I will kill you.
01:00Warrior's death is all I can give.
01:02Forgive me, but I'm trying to forget you're my friend.
01:06As long as you understand.
01:21If you have more to say, you should say it.
01:34This isn't a fight I want.
01:36I have been allowed my freedom tonight, and if I could slip away, I would, but I cannot
01:39do that.
01:42Reputation is all.
01:44I know it
01:44I have future settled promises to keep
01:46I must live
01:49Then you must kill me
01:51And you, me
01:51I intend to
01:57I'll have the advantage
01:59The king's wife is praying for me
02:02God loves her
02:03Someone's got to
02:08It's been good to have you as my friend
02:12Or make your death quick and painless
02:14Then hunt my queen
02:15And your wife
02:15She'll be without your balls
02:24I'll see you tomorrow morning
02:26You will
02:42What are you thinking?
02:47What goes on inside this head?
02:57I was thinking how I would like to lie with you
03:01As a woman
03:04You will?
03:09I cannot
03:09Yes, you can
03:10I cannot
03:11You know I cannot
03:12I will lose my gift
03:14Who cares?
03:17The future is fate
03:18It won't change
03:24And if today I die
03:27I have not seen your death
03:37Uhtred
03:40Uhtred
03:41The king wished to speak with you
03:43About what?
03:45He's unsure what to wear this morning
03:46He needs your advice
03:47With me
04:01Are you going to
04:03To all of this?
04:04Or
04:05Shall we save our friend?
04:07He's a baby
04:09Oh is he?
04:10Is he really?
04:11I quite forgotten
04:14Uhtred
04:16Lord
04:18Trust you slept well
04:20I did not
04:21My son is coughing
04:22And two of my best warriors
04:24Will today try to kill each other
04:31Today is the feast of Saint Ched
04:33We have decorated the great hall
04:35Do you know Saint Ched?
04:36No, Lord
04:37Well, I like to think of him as a symbol
04:40He worked in East Anglia and Mercia
04:43And he died in Northumbria
04:45Your part of the country
04:45A man of all England
04:47Exactly
04:48Uhtred
04:50Which is why I am
04:53Loathe to shed Saxon blood
04:55On his day of days
04:58Resume your debt
05:00Dispatch your queen
05:02Back to Cornwallum
05:03And there need to be no bloodshed
05:06Those are my terms
05:07And they will not change
05:08If Issa returns to Cornwallum
05:10She'll be killed
05:12I'm prepared to resume my debt
05:14To save Leifrich
05:15But Issa must stay with me
05:17She is Plunder
05:17And as such
05:18She must be returned
05:19Regardless of her fate
05:20I can't abandon her
05:21The queen stays with me
05:30You are a fool
05:33You are a sinner
05:35And a heathen
05:35And I
05:38I have lost my patience with you
05:42The fight will go ahead
05:48May your soul receive its just reward
05:50Lord
05:52Lord
05:54Sshhh
06:08Sshhh
06:09Oh, my God.
06:40Silence!
06:47Silence!
06:52Your Majesty, Lords, Ladies,
06:55Great unwashed and stinking people of Winchester.
07:00We are gathered to witness justice.
07:04We are gathered to witness a fight to the end,
07:06that end being death, that end being the fires of hell.
07:11We are here to witness a battle between Uhtred, the Godless,
07:15and Leofritz of Winchester!
07:19Take your shields.
07:27Warriors, are you prepared?
07:32I am.
07:34Yes.
07:38It is to the death, no matter how death occurs.
07:43May God choose as victor.
07:46Swords.
07:54In the end of the valley.
08:11Let's
08:11go! We're
08:12out of the way, the weapon
08:13is part of the list. Let's
08:14go! Let's
08:14go. Oh!

08:17the wind. That's
08:46I wish you well.
08:48You do not wish to see the outcome, Lord.
08:50No, no, I do not.
08:50My dear, when you ask the nurses to fetch the children, I wish to walk with them.
09:27No, no, I do not.

22:01should show respect Wessex allows its warriors to kill each other and spends too much time on its knees
22:07too much a Christian and not pagan there would be no war but he's not you will do well to
22:14remember
22:15that I am king king of what look around you he's our king like every kingdom before it Wessex has
22:21fallen he is Alfred a man king of nothing
22:46there okay
22:53yeah
22:54yeah
22:54Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:28Lord God, allow your blessed oils to penetrate
23:31and take away any and all fever and sickness.
23:36Restore health and strength to the child
23:38and to his ever-watchful parents.
23:42Amen.
23:43Amen.
23:44Amen.
24:11Lord, I've prepared a tonic for the pain.
24:15For the pain you suffer here.
24:19You pass blood from your eyes?
24:27It is nothing more than what grows from the earth, Lord.
24:29Drink it.
24:41Is it good?
24:43Oh, not at all.
24:48There'll be more tomorrow.
24:57You'll become lost.
25:00I guarantee it.
25:20You have explored?
25:22A little.
25:26What do you notice about this place?
25:30It's wet.
25:32There are no horizons.
25:35No sense of something beyond.
25:38My priests have visited here once or twice to preach.
25:42The people are oblivious to God.
25:49You look tired.
25:52Sleep has been a rarity, yes.
25:57My wife would like us to take a ship to Francia.
26:00To become another king in exile.
26:02So you admit I am still a king?
26:06We dare not travel.
26:09My son would never survive it.
26:19You should send out word that you are alive, asking men to join you, to follow you.
26:24And then what?
26:25Fight?
26:27Is that what you would do?
26:28It's what a king would do.
26:31I have given it thought.
26:32Of course I have.
26:34And as much I know.
26:37If I am to fight, it would have to be a single battle, and soon, before yet more Danes arrive.
26:44Before Wessex crumbles, skirmish by skirmish, raid by raid, piece by piece.
26:48Therefore, the first task would be to somehow convince the Danes to hold one great and deciding moment.
27:01A single defining battle.
27:03Yes.
27:05Who should I send?
27:07Out into the country with the news I am here.
27:09It would have to be your priests, all of them, each in a separate direction.
27:12Their prayers are needed here.
27:16Your son grows weaker despite their prayers.
27:20For that, I'm sorry.
27:34Every breath is an effort for him.
27:37I don't know whether to make him warm or keep him cool.
27:42Well, we will remain here until he is well.
28:16Will the child die?
28:21Can you save him?
28:26There is a way.
28:29Though it is not a good way.
28:33If it's the only way, then you must.
28:49You are feeling a little better, Lord.
28:52I am.
28:57It's all to Sihila.
29:02She could help your son.
29:16If you help, then you better succeed.
29:18If the child dies, you will be blamed.
29:20I cannot do nothing.
29:21That's not what I'm saying.
29:24Listen to the pagan and a woman.
29:26She will be blamed.
29:39If it's true that Alfred is in the Swampland, how long do we wait for him to come out?
29:44If he's hiding in the Swampland, we will be fools to go searching.
29:47Have you seen anything like this?
29:50Monastery is here.
29:51No, no, no, not like this.
29:52What does it all mean?
29:54What does all this speak of?
29:57I cannot say I care.
29:59Whatever Alfred found out about his enemies, he'd write.
30:03Yeah.
30:04It's magic.
30:05Yeah, it is.
30:07You're laughing.
30:08It's a weird kind of magic.
30:10No, no, no.
30:10Wrong.
30:11This is...
30:12This is words without sound.
30:14This is voices without people.
30:17I'm going to learn how to use this magic.
30:19And if we took Alfred, he could teach you?
30:23Only a fool would march an army into a Swampland.
30:28Are you that fool?
30:38Ragnar, no, I'm not.
30:42Then we wait.
30:58We need to be closer.
31:13Ragnar, no, I'm not.
31:25Uhtred.
31:27The water is rising.
31:38Lord, you had one task.
31:40Oh, no, I am sorry.
31:43Well, I've never cooked before, never again, have you?
31:47Are they burned?
31:48They have done well, Lord.
31:49A challenge for your teeth and stomach.
31:51Look, I've seen a fleet on the Severn.
31:56They carry Scorpus colors.
31:58How many ships?
31:59Twenty or more.
32:02That's over 1,000 men.
32:05And Guthrum will have the same.
32:07More.
32:08God save us.
32:09We can save ourselves.
32:11You must believe it.
32:20Will the lady be joining us, Lord?
32:23No, she will not.
32:25She is angry with me still for sending away the priests.
32:28Sending out the priests was the right thing, Lord.
32:32Let us pray you are correct.
32:34If you will excuse me.
32:40If the child dies, it will take the fight from Alfred's bones.
32:44And we will never save ourselves.
33:03Elsewhere, you must end this silence.
33:07The priests will fetch men.
33:09Without men, save passage to the south and to Francia would be impossible.
33:15At best, our children would be taken as slaves.
33:26You were eating meat.
33:29Why?
33:30These last few days, the pains have abated.
33:32Meat does not agree.
33:34I could not cope with Father's sickness.
33:42In the mind of Brother Assas, she is a witch.
33:45And yet you gladly drink her potion.
33:47It is a tonic.
33:48I can read you.
33:50You wish to put our child in the hands of the devil.
33:53Our prayers are not being answered.
33:55Is it any wonder we find ourselves living in a muddy puddle?
34:20Father, please, come warm yourself by the fire.
34:23I bring word from the king.
34:33He lives.
34:35Wessex lives and breathes warfare.
34:38Thank God.
34:40Thank God.
34:56Oh, my goodness.
34:58She has the nerve to approach.
35:01She has helped me.
35:09I, for one, do not wish to hear your voice.
35:13Do not speak a word.
35:18Is there something you wish to say, Isild?
35:24If you wish, Lord, I will try and help your child.
35:28We do not wish.
35:30Tonight is a good night.
35:31We do not wish.
35:34Tomorrow it will be too late.
35:35What kind of talk is that?
35:38What kind of talk is too late?
35:41Are you saying that my child will die?
35:43Elsworth, Elsworth, please.
35:45Get her away from me.
35:46Get her away from me.
35:47Get out of my sight.
35:49Please, stop.
35:49Get out of my sight.
35:51She's suffering.
35:52My priest told me that you are a witch.
35:55And they are correct.
35:55She's not a witch.
35:56Elsworth, please.
35:57No more.
35:57No more.
35:59You're upsetting yourself.
36:00You're upsetting the children.
36:02No more.
36:08Please, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
36:10Please, Elsworth, Elsworth.
36:17Go, go.
36:18Please.
36:19Please, Elsworth.
36:20We must prepare.
36:25Lord.
36:28It can only be tonight.
36:32She'll be ready.
36:57The child will pass from one chamber
37:01to the other.
37:04Near death to life.
37:12What is it?
37:15If this child is to live,
37:18then another somewhere must die.
37:23I will be taking a life.
37:26A stranger, an innocent.
37:29Elsworth.
37:33This must be done.
37:51Lady Elsworth.
37:55Leave me.
38:00Leave me.
38:02Lady.
38:06You need comfort.
38:18When a child suffers,
38:23the mother suffers,
38:26I know this.
38:29I know the pain you feel.
38:40I'll stay only for as long as you need me.
38:43For a moment.
38:44A year.
38:50He's dying.
39:01She is a pagan,
39:04and yet she has helped the king.
39:09I hope to trust a stranger with my child.
39:21There is good in Ysselt.
39:42I don't know what is worse.
39:45When he cries,
39:46or when he's still,
39:46when he's still,
39:47I feel the need to prod him awake.
39:51It is retribution.
39:52God is punishing me.
39:54For what?
39:55For Etherwald,
39:56for taking his crown.
39:57Etherwald is a fool.
39:58He could never be king.
40:00Your God is testing you.
40:04Lord, give Edward to Ysselt.
40:08If God will not cure Edward,
40:10what makes you think
40:12that he would allow a pagan to succeed?
40:30Who is to say that God is not working through us all?
40:34Did he not make the pagans too?
40:38He would tell me that
40:41God's ways are known only to himself.
40:46You have been brought to the marshes for a reason.
40:49You have this one chance to save your son,
40:52and you will have one chance to save your kingdom.
40:55The two are bound together.
40:59Edward is your heir.
41:02If he lives,
41:05I would say it's a sign
41:08Wessex will live.
41:19There is barely a heartbeat.
41:24Let me give the child to Ysselt.
41:46Oh, may God have mercy on each of us.
42:09Where has he taken him?
42:12Am I allowed to know?
42:15To Ysselt.
42:18God is watching.
42:20I'm watching.
42:31Amen.
42:32Amen.
43:00Oh, Lord.
43:05Lord.
43:07Good morning, Lord.
43:09We received your message. We came as quickly as we could.
43:13Father Beocca, is that you?
43:15Yes, Lord.
43:18You are here.
43:20I am, Lord.
43:26You have brought men.
43:29Both here.
43:29Lord.
43:33Well, how warming it is to see you all.
43:36It's good to see you again, Lord.
43:37And many more are nearby.
43:39Guards, men, even the Brother Asser is here.
43:43Have you all been saying prayers for your health and safety?
43:48Praying, yes.
43:49And for Edward, of course.
43:51Every priest in the land has been instructed to hold service for his recovery.
43:57For Edward, I am blessed.
44:01How is the boy, Lord?
44:05Edward.
44:09Lord?
44:11What is it, Lord?
44:18Oh, please, oh, please, God.
44:32He is well, Lord.
44:34What?
44:35And he is healed.
44:37Healed?
44:39Lord, what is this?
44:43It's good news, Father.
44:45Rejoice.
44:46He is well.
44:54He is well.
44:55It is true.
44:58He is well.
44:58He is cool.
45:00He is well, Beocca.
45:03I can feel his heart beating strongly.
45:07God has not forsaken you, Lord.
45:09That's Yeltswith, fetch his mother.
45:11The prayers of the whole of Wessex have been answered.
45:13Indeed.
45:14Every mass, Lord.
45:15Every mass said by one hundred priests or more has been heard.
45:19Look at him.
45:19Look at him.
45:20He is well.
45:20God is good.
45:22Praise him.
45:29Yes.
45:30Praise him, Father Belker.
45:40You did well.
45:41Why the tears?
45:48They are for the stranger's child.
46:15So, nevermind.
