00:12TASTE THEIR BLOOD, VALHALA AWAKE!
00:30TASTE THEIR BLOOD, VALHALA AWAKE!
00:37AASG!
00:39TASTE THEIR BLOOD, VALHALA AWAKE!
00:44AASG!
01:02Commander! Hold on!
01:04Tell Ivar his gates are safe.
01:09The valent blood flows in your veins, not his!
01:12Why must you...
01:14Dammit! She's bleeding out! Get the litter, now!
01:32We survived the winter, Frosthell. Look, the stone still stands.
01:37My lady! Praise the gods you live!
01:43Where is my husband? Lord Ivar, he is...
01:46Indispensed, my lady. Upstairs.
02:04Ivar, he is dying.
02:04Ivar, Ivar, he is dying.
02:10Ivar, Ivar, Ivar, Ivar...
02:14Ivar, Ivar, Ivar, Ivar, Ivar.
02:15Oh, fuck.
02:22You gave me the Valen steel, Ivor.
02:25If the commander sees this on my finger, she'll have my head.
02:30Let her try.
02:31I'm done hiding behind that warmongering bitch.
02:34She still commands the vanguard, Ivor.
02:36The soldier's blood swear to her name, not yours.
02:39Not anymore.
02:40I've spent three years purging her captains.
02:43Every blade in this keep answers to my coin now.
02:45Her seal, a useless strip of iron.
02:47She's wounded, broken and blind.
02:49What can she possibly do?
02:50But the people still love her.
02:52The scourth sing of her victories.
02:54She bled for my land.
02:55I am the Lord here.
02:56She is just my soldier.
02:59Someone's coming.
03:00What if it's her?
03:02Good.
03:03It's time she learned her place.
03:09In my bed, Ivor?
03:12With my own scribe?
03:17You were gone too long, Brine.
03:20A man gets cold in the north.
03:24Where did you get that ring?
03:26Forgive me, my lady.
03:27The Lord said the ancient rings of the keep belong to the ruler.
03:30And right now, Ivan rules.
03:32It suits her better than a hand clocked in battlefield mud.
03:37My beautiful Brunhild, by this steel I swear I will never betray you.
03:41If that day ever comes, my life is yours to take.
03:48Three winters.
03:49That is all it took for a stray dog to forget who fed him.
03:53You want my keep, Ivor?
03:55Let's see if you can hold it.
03:57Guards, strip them.
03:58Throw this trash into the snow.
04:11They don't fear you anymore, Brine.
04:15Save your breath, my sweet lady.
04:17These spears belong to the Lord now.
04:22I said drag them out.
04:28Always so naive, Brine.
04:30Abdication is suicide in the north, don't you know that?
04:34You left to bleed in the snow, and I bought every soul left behind.
04:37How dare you?
04:38Watch me.
04:39Take her down.
04:40Shit.
04:42Unhand me, you traitors!
04:46You have no idea how long I've prayed for this day.
04:51I have walked in your shadow for three long winters.
04:54A beggar who married into a great house.
04:56Your captains whisper about you, the king praises you, and your victories choke the life out of me!
05:01If I didn't need your sword to keep the Ulf clan from my throat, you'd be dead already!
05:08I am sick of you, Brine.
05:10Sick to my core!
05:12You are nothing but a common rat.
05:21Careful, my lord.
05:23She is the king's commander.
05:24We need her alive.
05:25Lock her in the high tower.
05:27No visitors without my seal.
05:28Yes, Lord Avar.
05:31You will burn for this.
05:33The only thing I regret is not cutting your throat three winters ago!
05:49You truly intend to keep her caged?
05:51And give her the chance to take back my seat?
05:53Never.
05:54She still bears the Valen name.
05:57The king...
05:57The king favors her.
05:59He personally signed her war scroll after Frostbite Canyon.
06:02A sudden death would bring his inquisitives to my gates.
06:04So?
06:05She lives then.
06:07For now.
06:10But alive, she touches no silver, commands no steel.
06:13Lock her away until the north forgets her name.
06:17When the storms pass...
06:20The crown belongs on a head as sharp as yours.
06:24Watch that ice lion.
06:26Frosthowl is her last tether to this world.
06:28While that beast draws breath, she has hope.
06:30I want it crushed.
06:32Consider the beast broken, my lord.
06:34Don't you ์ฃฝ'm by แป ฤรขuล...
06:49And his father keeps by going.
06:50Coop...
06:51Cough, coowych...
06:52No!
07:02I have walked in.
07:03your shadow for three long winters father you warned me the north has no room for trust
07:19you stole a castle Ivar but hold the north in your dreams let the winter begin
07:54Aldrich commander it's me I swapped the slop they meant for you you need to eat keep your strength up
08:03where do we stand the keep is crawling with southern salesman's we cannot trust them but
08:0942 of the old guard are hiding in the old barracks waiting on your word but the gods play cruel
08:16games
08:17speak Aldrich the keep is an iron cage now we can't pierce their lines frost out is he alive
08:26he's alive chained in the lower pits the collar's cutting right into his flesh
08:31Leah's dogs watch him night and day they're taking their spite out on him
08:38how bad is he we've got to break him out
08:44hold storming the gates is a death sentence stay hidden don't let Ivan catch your scent
08:50wait for my mark yes commander
09:17wait for me
09:21now
09:28Wait. Tell Ivarg I want him here.
09:35You think you're still a Yarr, or the king himself? Know your place, Thrawn.
09:45What of Lea, then? Or is she too grand for the dungeon?
09:50Oh, Lady Lea will definitely see you. In fact, she's already on her way.
09:54Word of advice, Thrift, Lady Winston is in a foul mood today. Pray to your gods.
10:05Look at you. The proud blood of House Vian, the great Valkyrie of the North, rotting in a cage.
10:13How pathetically to Rhajik.
10:16Did you come all this way just to bark, Lea?
10:21Of course not. I came to offer a gift. A final viewing. Guess what it is?
10:30Your beloved Frostbeast. Frost Howl.
10:34Are you here to torture me, or him?
10:39Always the sharp Valkyrie.
10:42So will you grant me the pleasure?
10:47Lead the way.
10:48You aren't afraid?
10:50Of a snake like you?
10:52He's my blood. My family.
10:55You're the one who should be trembling.
10:57Give me one excuse, and I'll choke the life out of you.
11:02Watch her! Don't let her near me!
11:15Oh, I'm terrified. But it's not my blood on the stones, Valkyrie. It's yours.
11:31Bruce!
11:37Good boy. Stay down. I'm all right. Hold on, I'll get you out of here.
11:45What a touching display. I never knew a beast could possess such loyalty, Brian.
11:50I wonder, when the cold steel bites, will he die for you or watch you bleed? We'll see.
11:56What are you doing, you wretched snake?
11:59I'm simply conducting an experiment. Did you not hear me? Do it.
12:08Lady Lear, Lord Ivor said the beast must remain unharmed.
12:13Ivor isn't here to save you, old man. In this keep, my word is law. Speak another word and you'll
12:19rot in the dark.
12:20Forgive me, my lady. Your word is law.
12:31Stop! Touch him and I'll end you! Face me, you cowards! Face me!
12:42While you were away, I made sure to take good care of him.
12:46He was a wild one at first, mauled two of my men.
12:50But now, look at him. So obedient.
12:55Lear, stop! Face me, he did nothing wrong!
13:02His only crime is belonging to Brynild Veiland.
13:05And that is a sin.
13:12I'm begging you. Please stop. Take the castle.
13:16Take the keek, whatever you want.
13:18Just stop!
13:19The proud Valkyrin. Begging on her knees. This is the best show in the north.
13:24Lady Lear, this...
13:27Did you not hear me?
13:29But the Lord said the beast still has tactical value.
13:32Don't worry. I know exactly what I'm doing. It's just a little lesson.
13:38No! Frost Howell, don't touch it!
13:47Get in there, you useless cribs! Pin him down! Now!
14:12Frost Howell!
14:14Frost Howell!
14:25Who told you to kill it? I told you the beast had tactical value!
14:30Ivor, don't be angry. It was her.
14:34Brynild, what happened here?
14:37She forced her way into the pits. The tamer only struck it to save her life. It was an accident.
14:42I told you, Lear. If he dies, I'll make your life a living hell.
14:48Ivor, look at her. I tried to save her, and now she blames me for the beast's death.
14:54Punish me if you must. It's all my fault.
14:57Have you lost your mind? You have no idea the storm you've brought upon me.
15:01The old guard were already whispering mutiny. Them a perfect excuse.
15:05Frost Howell was my blood. My family. For twenty winters he stood by me. He was no beast.
15:11It was a bloody lion, woman.
15:14A lion to a rat. But today, the North will bleed for him.
15:19I know you're grieving, but don't blame Ivor. You shouldn't have broken out of the tower.
15:24If you stayed in your cage, none of this would have happened.
15:27Is that so?
15:31What are you doing?
15:33By the Aulid's decree, the covenant of the gods, the Blackstone Signal names the Truesurps strip-usurps crown.
15:42Kneel before the blood of Valens!
16:00No. How?
16:02How? I ransacked every inch of this castle.
16:07My father's last card wasn't meant for a scavenger like you to find.
16:12Take her! Strip the Sigeon from her hand! She's a traitor in a cage! She has no right to-
16:17Seize her! Take the stone! Now!
16:26I said take her! Are you deaf, you bastards?
16:41You wear his colors, but you bleed for the North.
16:44House Vaemon gave you your Thrial coin and broke the Ulf clan when they marched on your homes.
16:49Remember who's blood bought the ground you stand on!
16:56This is mutiny!
16:58You'll hang for this!
17:00All of you!
17:07Ivor, what do we do now?
17:14You thought mastering a fortress meant mastering the North?
17:18Always so naรฏve.
17:24Take them down.
17:26I'll deal with them when I have the time.
17:28Commander!
17:28Mercy!
17:29I only followed orders.
17:31It was them!
17:31They forced my hand!
17:32Reinfeld!
17:33You can't do this to me!
17:35I'm your husband!
17:36I am the Lord here!
17:37You are nothing.
17:39And from this day forth, you shall be less than nothing.
17:46Lea Wincenton, the exiled daughter of a fallen southern house.
17:50Sent north three winters ago to play the humble scribe whispering poison into a weak man's ear.
17:54Did I miss anything?
17:56How do you know that?
18:02You thought you hid it well.
18:04You underestimate House Veyland.
18:07You butchered Frosthowl.
18:09My kin, my blood.
18:11Every drop of agony he suffered, I'll return to you tenfold.
18:14Slowly.
18:17Lock her in the pits.
18:19Right beside Ivath.
18:21Let them choke on each other's rot.
18:23Yes, Commander.
18:25Reinhild!
18:26Mark my words!
18:27If you touch me, the Lords of the South will tear this keep to the ground!
18:31Let them try.
18:41Commander!
18:41The Guard has been replaced with our own kin, but what are the traitors who sided with the South?
18:48Find them.
18:50Those who shared Ivan's bed of treason will share his cell.
18:54The common soldiers who merely followed orders, strip their armor and banish them past the wall.
18:59If they ever step foot in the North again, take their heads.
19:03Yes, Commander.
19:10Commander, we've searched the keep from Vault to Tower.
19:13Lord Ivar's signet ring is gone!
19:15What?
19:21What?
19:22You searched every chamber?
19:24Every inch, Commander.
19:25Even the wall vaults.
19:29Where did Ivar hide the stone?
19:32Commander, could it be on his body?
19:34Or did Leia hide it?
19:35I stripped their bodies myself.
19:38Ivar was waiting for this.
19:40Without the seal, I rule the old guard, but not the heavy banners.
19:43The iron hosts only answer to the Lord's stone.
19:46Keep searching.
19:48Tear the stone walls down if you must.
19:50Find it!
19:53Yes, Commander.
19:55One more thing, Commander.
19:57Before dawn, Leia's handmaiden took a horse.
20:00She rode south.
20:02Who let her through the gates?
20:03The guard said she held a pass, signed by Ivar himself.
20:08The keep didn't know the Lord was in the pits, so...
20:17I'm sorry.
20:23I'm sorry.
20:53Why did you touch the beast?
20:58What are you talking about?
21:02I mean the lion.
21:04Frost Howl!
21:06Why did you kill him?
21:07You said it yourself.
21:09You wanted to cut Brine Mild's tethers.
21:11I said bend his knee!
21:12I didn't say slaughter him!
21:17Bend his knee?
21:19The frost beast only knows Brenhild.
21:22He mauled two of my men.
21:23I broke him.
21:25What of it?
21:26You poisoned him right before her eyes.
21:28Do you have any idea what that creature meant to her?
21:32So what?
21:33Brine Mild values many things.
21:36Do you want to worship them all?
21:38If the lion lived, Brian wouldn't have struck so soon.
21:41We had a trap ready!
21:42But you butchered his ghost, and now she wants us both on the gallows!
21:48You're afraid.
21:50The great Ivan Carlson is shaking it.
21:53I don't fear her.
21:54I fear dying in the muck of this cage, with no way back!
22:03You think the Southern Lords will save you?
22:05Wake up already.
22:07They will.
22:09My handmaid rides with my letters.
22:12A handmaiden's letter?
22:13By the time their banners march, Brine Hild will have our heads on pikes!
22:18What do you want from me?
22:20The blow is struck.
22:22There's no going back.
22:24It's your fault.
22:25All of it.
22:26If not for you, I'd still be the lord of this keep.
22:28I wouldn't be rotting here.
22:30You blame me?
22:31Who came into my bed first, Ivar?
22:33Who whispered that he hated the Valkyria riding his neck?
22:36You're weak.
22:37Don't blame a woman for your own rot.
22:39Hear me, Leia.
22:41If I was hanged by her, I'm dragging you to hell with me.
22:45You're weak.
22:46Ivar?
22:48Suit yourself.
23:03Wait for me, Frosthowl. Soon, their blood will wash the snow.
23:16General, we have visitors from the south.
23:20Who?
23:21Envoys from the southern nobles. They specifically asked to see you.
23:26Here to plead for Ivar or Lear?
23:28Neither. I heard the man leading them is the heir to House Ashford, Tristan Ashford. He's the king's trusted man.
23:36How's Ashford? One of the three great houses of the south. What do they want?
23:41They say they're here to mediate the northern dispute.
23:46Mediate? Since when do southern nobles meddle in the north's affairs?
23:50Let them in. Let's see what they want.
23:53Yes, sir.
24:03General Veyland.
24:05I've heard a lot about you.
24:07I'm here simply because His Majesty has learned of the turmoil in the north and sent me to mediate.
24:12Tell His Majesty there is no turmoil in the north.
24:16Only one traitor, and he's already locked up.
24:20Hmm.
24:25Might I ask, General, this traitor you speak of, would that be Lord Ivar Carlson?
24:31As I understand it, since he is already Lord. Under the law, deposing a lord requires the king's consent.
24:38I gave him that title, and now I'm taking it back. Got a problem with that?
24:42According to ancient northern law, the holder of the Valen Blackstone can appoint or remove lords as they see fit.
24:49But, General, don't forget the Blackstone is northern law, and here in the south we don't recognize it.
24:55Since when do I need southern approval to run the north?
24:57I know the north has never gotten along with us southerners. But, General, His Majesty would not be pleased to
25:03see things get unpleasant between us. Am I right?
25:09So the three great houses of the south suggest this. As long as you release Ivar Carlson and agree not
25:15to pursue the matter further, they'll report it to His Majesty and we'll pretend none of this ever happened.
25:20And if I refuse?
25:22Then things get complicated. The north and the south have had peace for so many years. No one wants to
25:29see war start again.
25:32Are you threatening me?
25:38I'm stating facts.
25:45Tristan, go back and tell the three houses. The north handles its own affairs. We don't need their concern.
25:49General, are you sure that's your final answer?
25:52Yes.
25:54This is a welcoming gift from the three great houses of the south. I hope you'll reconsider.
25:59When Southermen give gifts, there's always a meaning behind it. They're never free.
26:04General, you know what it means if you accept this dagger.
26:07I don't need gifts from the south. Take it back.
26:11Very well. I'll take your answer back with me.
26:19General Valen, let me give you some advice. Sometimes taking a step back isn't admitting defeat. It's staying alive.
26:25I've stepped back long enough. This time I'm done stepping back.
26:29Interesting.
26:37Did you hear? Someone from the south came to plead for Ivar. Word is the king doesn't want this to
26:42blow up.
26:47So what did the general say?
26:50For a backstabbing traitor like him who bites the hand that feeds him?
26:55The general told them no.
26:57So we're going to war?
26:59Who knows? We're soldiers. We follow orders.
27:10Did you hear that? Someone from the south came.
27:13I told you. The south wouldn't abandon me.
27:18Are they here for you or for their own interests?
27:21Does it matter?
27:23The southern nobles have been itching to get rid of Brinehild for years.
27:26A woman holding the north's military power, she's made plenty of enemies.
27:31Once they send troops to pressure her, Brinehild won't dare touch us.
27:38So, three days at most.
27:40Just wait. Brinehild's about to find out that she can't take on the entire south by herself.
27:53General, the guards at the gate report that the southern envoys camp is still set up outside the city. They
27:58haven't left.
27:59Still here. What do they want?
28:02They're waiting for you to change your mind.
28:06Change my mind?
28:08Let's see how long they can wait.
28:12Has there been any unusual activity in the dungeon?
28:15No. Ivor and Lea are quiet. No trouble.
28:19Too quiet.
28:21That's what worries me.
28:24What do you mean, General?
28:26Tristan's people just arrived and Ivor suddenly went from screaming for his release to dead silent.
28:30The only explanation is that someone got them information.
28:36Find out who's been feeding them messages.
28:39Yes, sir.
28:44Ivor, you really think that'll get you out?
28:47How naive.
28:58My lord, everything is arranged at the dungeon.
29:02Lea's spy has the location of the secret passage.
29:06When do we move?
29:13Not yet.
29:15Now isn't the time.
29:17Then when?
29:20When Brinefield thinks she's already ones.
29:24Weren't you sent to mediate the northern conflict?
29:26Mediate?
29:28That's what the three southern houses want everyone to believe.
29:31My real mission is to get the complete wax seal from Ivan Carlson and use it to bring the entire
29:36north under my control.
29:38But Brunhild's attitude today made it clear she's not letting us see Ivor.
29:42Exactly.
29:43So we'll have to take matters into our own hands.
29:49Brinehild.
29:51What will you do?
29:52I'm curious.
29:56General.
29:56We found who sent the message to the dungeon.
29:59It was a kitchen hand.
30:00He bribed a guard to deliberately reveal the news about the southern Axot in front of Ivor and Lea.
30:05Where is he now?
30:07He ran.
30:08We searched everywhere and couldn't find him.
30:11General, this was clearly planned.
30:13Should we move Ivak and Lea somewhere else?
30:16They're too exposed in the dungeon if someone tries to break them out.
30:20No.
30:21Leave them there.
30:25But...
30:25If they're in the dungeon, isn't that exactly what makes them perfect bait?
30:31Brilliant, General.
30:33Increase security at the dungeon.
30:35And check every secret passage in the castle.
30:37Yes, sir.
30:38Want to break them out?
30:40I'll be waiting.
30:43I'll be waiting.
31:09Quick, there's a secret passage on the south side of the castle.
31:12Follow us.
31:13We have people waiting outside.
31:16He finally came.
31:34Now's not the time for this.
31:36If you attract attention, none of us are getting out.
31:41We'll talk once we're out.
31:43We'll talk once we're out.
31:59Finally out.
32:03We'll talk once we're out.
32:12I'll be back.
32:14Mark my words.
32:19I'll be back.
32:26Mark my words.
32:29General, we have a problem.
32:30The dungeon is empty.
32:32Ivar and Lea are gone.
32:37When did this happen?
32:40Sometime last night.
32:43We found two guards knocked unconscious.
32:46The iron gate at the south passage was pried open.
32:49Someone on the outside must have helped Ivar and Lea.
32:53How could this happen?
32:54I gave the orders.
32:56How did they manage to break them out?
32:59They knew exactly how to avoid the guard rotations.
33:02I suspect there's a mole inside the castle.
33:06Find them.
33:08Turn the castle upside down if you have to.
33:09I want to know who the traitor is.
33:11Yes, sir.
33:17Tristocker, was this you?
33:28Sit.
33:32Lord Tristan, when will the southern nobles send troops?
33:35That bitch Brinefield humiliated me.
33:37I want to lead the army myself and take back the north.
33:39Send troops.
33:40Do you think war between the north and south is some child's game?
33:45Do you really believe you're important enough to start a war?
33:48Or you think far too highly of yourself?
34:00Then why did you go through all this trouble to save me?
34:04I didn't save you because you needed saving.
34:07I saved you because still useful.
34:10What do you mean?
34:13The north's wax seal.
34:15I know you have it.
34:17I don't know what you're talking about.
34:19You don't?
34:20Then why else would I have saved you?
34:21Guards!
34:23Take these two back to Brynhild's castle.
34:25You give a noah hisp, you!
34:27Lord Tristan, we can talk about the seal.
34:30But first, shouldn't we discuss how to deal with Brinehild?
34:36Brinehild.
34:36Go on.
34:38Brinehild's biggest weakness right now isn't her injury or her military power.
34:42It's her pride.
34:44She thinks she has complete control over the north and no one would dare touch her.
34:51So?
34:52So we use her pride against her.
34:56We feed her false intelligence that Ivar is fleeing toward the Barbarian Territories.
35:01She'll personally lead the pursuit.
35:02And when she does, we can take the north in one move.
35:07How do you know she'll go herself?
35:12Because she hates Ivar.
35:19I guarantee it.
35:20When it comes to Ivar, she won't trust anyone else to handle it.
35:24And then?
35:25Here.
35:26An abandoned watchtower.
35:28Strategically sound, easy to defend, hard to attack.
35:31We set the trap there.
35:32Bronwild won't bring many men to chase Ivar.
35:33And then?
35:35Kill her.
35:36Killing her would cause the north's veterans to retaliate like madmen.
35:39That works against us.
35:41She's already wounded.
35:42All we need to do is trap her.
35:44That buys us time to circle around from the east,
35:46take her castle and claim the entire north.
35:48You've thought this through.
35:50I've been by Brynhild's side for so long.
35:52You pick up a thing or two just by watching.
35:55Go back for now.
35:56I'll think about the plan.
35:58My lord.
35:59I said, go back.
36:11My lord, do you really trust them?
36:13What do you think?
36:19My lord, I don't think that Lea woman can be trusted.
36:22Of course she can't.
36:24Her and Ivor both, obsessed with revenge.
36:26She's just smarter about it than that fool Ivor.
36:29Then why did you-
36:30I'm thinking about something else.
36:32What?
36:33If Brynhild finds out Ivan is fleeing towards the barbarian territories,
36:36she'll definitely come after him herself.
36:39Lea was right about that.
36:40It's her weakness.
36:41And once Brynhild falls into our trap,
36:43war between the north and south becomes almost certain.
36:47War right now isn't a good thing.
36:49Then, should we warn Brynfield?
36:51She wouldn't believe us.
36:53Then what are you planning to do?
36:56I'll follow them.
36:57See what they're really after.
36:59And if Brynfield does show up-
37:01No, my lord.
37:02What if you get hurt?
37:07Get things ready.
37:08We leave at first light.
37:11Understood.
37:15Are you really going to lure Brynhild to that watchtower?
37:25What else?
37:26Do you have a better plan?
37:27What happens if we can't beat her?
37:30Can't beat her?
37:31We have plenty of men.
37:33And she's still wounded.
37:34And you're still afraid?
37:35But Tristan-
37:36Tristan?
37:38You think he's really helping us?
37:40Don't be naive.
37:41He only broke us out for the seal.
37:43Then why did you give him the plan?
37:45If I hadn't, he would have sent us back already.
37:48Besides, I don't just want to trap Brynhild.
37:50I want her dead at that watchtower.
37:53You softened?
37:54Don't forget, we got Frosthow killed.
37:56You've been with her for years.
37:57You know what Frosthow meant to her.
37:59She'll never let us live.
38:00I'm not.
38:01Good.
38:02We leave at first light tomorrow.
38:03You tell Tristan the sealers.
38:04Keep him calm.
38:05I'll arrange the men.
38:09Ivar, this time, it's either you or me.
38:22General, scouts report from the south.
38:24Ivar and Lear were spotted near the abandoned mines east of here last night.
38:27Herders saw their campfire.
38:28They're moving east, towards the Barbarian lands.
38:32East.
38:33They're trying to cut around the north through Barbarian land?
38:36Probably.
38:36Since we signed the ceasefire with the Barbarians after the last war, if they enter Barbarian
38:40territory, our men won't be able to pursue without starting another conflict.
38:44That would leave us with the south breathing down our necks and the Barbarians stirring
38:48on the other side.
38:49That's bad for us.
38:54Then I'm leading the pursuit myself at first light tomorrow.
38:57But General, your internal injuries haven't healed.
38:59You can't fight.
39:00And what if it's a trap?
39:01Ivar got away.
39:02Do you expect me to just sit here?
39:04Even if it's a trap, I'm going.
39:06I can't let them leave the north that easily.
39:11How many men?
39:12A dozen light cavalry.
39:14Fast horses.
39:15More men will just slow us down.
39:17Yes, General.
39:33Frost Howl.
39:34Just wait.
39:36I won't let your death be for nothing.
39:38I'll make sure you didn't die in vain.
39:45My lord, we've confirmed the plan.
39:48Ivan and Leah have decided to leave at first light tomorrow to set the trap at the abandoned
39:52watchtower to the east.
39:53What about Brinehild?
39:54Our men haven't sent word back yet.
39:56But according to Leah's plan, someone should be feeding Brinehild false information to lure
40:00her in.
40:00What's meant to come will come.
40:03My lord, are we really following Ivan's group?
40:05I told you.
40:06I'm going alone.
40:07You stay here and wait to provide backup.
40:10But my lord, if Brinehild really falls into the trap, Ivor has more men, you'd be- I'd be alone.
40:14I know.
40:16Brinehild, don't disappoint me tomorrow.
40:33General, you look awful.
40:35Let me lead the pursuit.
40:36You stay at the castle.
40:37No.
40:39I'm going.
40:40For the glory of the north, seize the traitors.
40:43For the glory of the north!
40:51General, there's a hunter's cabbage up ahead.
40:54Maybe we should rest for a bit.
40:55Your face.
40:56No.
40:57The tracks are getting fresher.
40:58They're just ahead.
41:07Brinehild.
41:27General, it's too quiet.
41:29Could there be an ambush?
41:34Even if there is an ambush, we're still going in.
41:36The tracks end here.
41:37They're definitely inside.
41:38General, let me go in with you.
41:40No.
41:41Too many people will just get in the way.
41:43Guard the entrance.
41:44Don't let anyone out.
41:58Come out.
41:59I know you're here.
42:01Ha ha ha ha.
42:14Brinehild, you actually came in alone.
42:16Should I call you brave or just stupid?
42:19Against the two of you, I'm more than enough.
42:21Sister, don't be like that.
42:23We're old friends.
42:24Can't we sit down and talk?
42:25Fighting is so uncivilized.
42:28I have nothing to discuss with animals.
42:31You killed Frosthal.
42:32I'm settling that debt today.
42:34Sister, the Beast Tamer poisoned Frosthal by accident.
42:38What does that have to do with me?
42:39I'm innocent.
42:40You can't blame an innocent person.
42:42Innocent?
42:43You don't even deserve to say that word.
42:47Brinehild, you still think you're the North's war goddess?
42:50Get real.
42:51You're a washed-up has-been.
42:53A pathetic loser who couldn't even protect her own mount.
42:56I've purged your old guard.
42:57The North's wax seal is in my hands.
42:59What do you have to fight me with?
43:02Ivor, are you done?
43:03What?
43:04You're done.
43:06Now it's my turn.
43:09Yeah!
43:34This is bad.
43:36Stop her!
43:38Don't let her get close.
43:40Useless!
43:40So many of you can't take down one wounded woman!
43:51Stay back.
43:52Don't come any closer or I'll...
43:56Or you'll what?
43:57Where else can you go?
44:06You called me a has-been?
44:08A pathetic loser?
44:11Open your eyes wide and look closely.
44:14Who's the real loser here?
44:16I...
44:17I was wrong.
44:18Brinehild, please spare me.
44:20We were married once.
44:21Married?
44:23Did you think about that when you gave Lea the ring?
44:27Did you think about that when you locked me in that tower?
44:30Did you think about that when your mistress killed Frosthal?
44:32Did you think about that when your mistress killed Frosthal?
44:37Did you remember we were married then?
44:39That was Lea.
44:41Lea made me do it.
44:42It was all her idea.
44:45Ivora, you coward!
44:47How dare you blame me!
44:53You think you're worthy of anger for me?
45:11Brinehild, this time...
45:13You're finished.
45:19Kill her.
45:20Do it now!
45:21Let her taste what it's like to die!
45:25Ivar, do you really dare to kill me?
45:28The North's veterans won't let this go.
45:31I am the North's war hero.
45:33If you kill me, his majesty will be furious.
45:36You'll be hunted to the ends of the earth.
45:39Don't listen to her.
45:41As long as she lives, we'll never have peace.
45:44Once she's dead, the North will have no leader.
45:47Even if his majesty is angry,
45:49the three southern houses will support you.
45:51I'll find a way to put you back on the throne of the North.
45:54Brinehild, don't blame me.
45:56You brought this on yourself.
45:58Do it now!
46:00Hurry!
46:13Tristan?
46:14What are you doing here?
46:21You're from the southern nobility.
46:24How can you side with someone from the North?
46:26Don't lump me in with you people who call yourselves southern nobilities.
46:29Setting traps, using despicable tactics against a woman.
46:33Can you call yourselves nobles?
46:36Besides, if the North's commander dies here,
46:39the North and South will go to war.
46:42None of you will benefit from that.
46:44Do you...
46:46Do you even know what you're doing?
46:48The three great houses won't let this slide.
46:51You're a beaten dog.
46:53Since when do you speak for the three great houses?
46:56You.
46:57Guards!
46:58Seize them!
47:04Why?
47:05Why did you come?
47:07I don't know.
47:08Maybe I just didn't want to see you die in a place like this.
47:14Kill them both!
47:16Leave no one standing!
47:18I don't know.
47:22Take her and go.
47:23I'll cover the rear and hold them off.
47:27After them!
47:29Don't let them escape!
47:31Yes, don't let them escape!
47:46Hold on.
47:47Don't fall asleep.
47:51You still haven't answered me.
47:53What?
47:54Why did you save me?
47:57Because you're Brinehild Valand.
48:00The North can't afford to lose you.
48:13Bear with it.
48:28Answered what?
48:29Why did you save me?
48:36Is that so hard to answer?
48:38My mother also died alone after being betrayed.
48:42When I see you, I see her.
48:47Your mother.
48:51Get some sleep.
48:53Aldric will come for you tomorrow.
49:09He bandaged my wounds?
49:14Does the wound hurt?
49:16No.
49:17You know, every time you say it doesn't hurt, that's when it hurts the most.
49:27Your wounds need to be re-bandaged.
49:33Go ahead.
49:38This doesn't look good.
49:42You have a fever.
49:44I know.
49:54Bear with it.
49:55This is my mother's formula.
49:57It's good for wounds.
49:58Your mother.
50:00What was she like?
50:01She was a seamstress.
50:04But she married a southern noble, thinking he would give her a good life.
50:08He squandered her dowry and abandoned her.
50:10She raised me alone, sewing clothes for others.
50:13She wasn't even 40 when she died.
50:16In her hand was still his portrait.
50:18Do you hate him?
50:19I did.
50:20For years.
50:21Then I realized...
50:24hating someone is exhausting.
50:30So I didn't want to see you end up like that either.
50:46Tristan.
50:47Yeah?
50:48Do you have some kind of agenda for the North?
50:51Why are you asking?
50:52Because what you've done doesn't make sense for someone in your position.
50:55You're from the South.
50:57I'm from the North.
50:57Saving me doesn't benefit you at all.
50:59In fact, you've even made enemies of the Three Great Houses because of me.
51:02Maybe I just didn't want to see you die in a place like that.
51:05But you didn't have to take that risk.
51:08Breinhild.
51:09Some things don't need a reason.
51:11I've been betrayed once.
51:13I don't trust anyone anymore.
51:15I know.
51:16Then why do you still...
51:17I'm not asking you to trust me.
51:20I'm just doing what I want to do.
51:24Then leave.
51:25Leave at first light.
51:27I don't want to owe you anything.
51:29Fine.
51:54General, are you all right?
51:56Forgive me for leaving you here alone while I led the Pursuers away.
52:00Later, Tristan's men found us and told us you were here, so we came to get you.
52:05Where is he?
52:06He left after giving the message.
52:13Let's go back to the castle.
52:23So I didn't want to see you end up like that either.
52:26He saved me.
52:27I should at least let him know I'm all right.
52:30Forget it.
52:32I'll tell him in person when I see him.
52:49So close.
52:51We were so close to dying in there.
52:54And whose fault is that?
52:56You couldn't even stop one woman.
52:58More than a dozen men against one, and she still fought her way out.
53:03So it's my fault?
53:04This was your idea.
53:06Maria, you said Brinevilded would definitely come after us herself.
53:09You said setting the trap at the Watchtower was foolproof.
53:12And what happened?
53:14She came, and we still couldn't handle her.
53:17So you're blaming me now?
53:18Did I tell you to mention Frostowel in front of her?
53:20Did I tell you to provoke her?
53:22You can't control your own mouth, and now you're barking at me like a dog?
53:26Then why didn't you stop me?
53:28I see now.
53:29You were hiding in the back, just waiting to watch the show.
53:33Ivor, you're the most useless man I've ever met.
53:37Brinevild gave you military power, gave you status, and you couldn't hold on to it.
53:41I gave you a plan, and you couldn't execute it.
53:44Besides pushing the blame onto others, what else can you do?
53:47Say that again?
53:48I said, you're a useless man.
53:56I said, you're a useless man.
54:00Hit me.
54:01Go ahead.
54:02If you hit me now, who's going to help you contact the Southern Nobles?
54:06Who's going to clean up this mess for you?
54:11So what do we do now?
54:13Tristan has clearly sided with Brinevild.
54:15The Three Great Houses won't be able to do anything about this either.
54:18We'll deal with that later.
54:19First, tell me where the wax seal is.
54:21I'll send someone to retrieve it.
54:23The seal.
54:24You're still trying to hide it from me?
54:26Don't think I don't know you stashed it away somewhere.
54:28Otherwise, with Brinevild's temper, she would have torn us to peace and fed us to the dogs long ago.
54:32We wouldn't have lasted this long.
54:34Dignhunk long.
54:37It's in the dungeon of the castle, hidden in a crack in the wall.
54:41What did you say?
54:43You hid it in the dungeon where we were being held?
54:45The most dangerous place is the safest.
54:48You idiot!
54:50Brinevild has probably searched that dungeon from top to top by now!
54:57Draw me a map of the dungeon right now.
55:00Mark the exact location of the seal.
55:02You're still going to send someone to get it?
55:04Brinevild isn't stupid.
55:05She's definitely increased security by now.
55:07If we don't get it back, we're both dead.
55:10Once we have the seal, we'll have leverage to negotiate with the three great houses.
55:14The southern nobles will only side with us if there's enough benefit for them, you idiot!
55:29Make sure you draw it clearly.
55:31If something goes wrong this time, no one will be able to save us.
55:35If you send someone again, aren't you afraid Brinevild will catch them?
55:39So what if she does?
55:40She won't do anything to us until she finds the seal.
55:43Don't forget, even though Tristan is the southern envoy, he alone can't make decisions for the three great houses.
55:50You're terrifying.
55:52Stop wasting time, just draw.
56:05Right here?
56:06Yes.
56:08Third level of the dungeon.
56:10The seventh cell from the entrance on the left.
56:12The fifth brick from the bottom on the third row of the stone wall.
56:15There's a hidden compartment behind it.
56:18That's where I hid the seal.
56:19I put it there myself, no one knows.
56:23I see.
56:24You even hid this from me.
56:26Fine.
56:27Other people definitely don't know either.
56:28Leave this to me.
56:29I'll have our mole retrieve it.
56:31Are you sure he's reliable?
56:33Brinevild already suspects something after last time.
56:35So what if she suspects?
56:36She hasn't caught anyone yet.
56:38Besides, that kitchen hand is still hiding in the kitchen washing dishes.
56:42No one knows he's our man.
56:43Even if he gets caught, he doesn't know our current location.
56:47What are you afraid of?
56:52The fifth cell.
56:54The sixth cells.
56:56The seventh cells.
56:58This is it.
57:05This is it.
57:15I had a feeling someone would come.
57:18But I didn't expect it to be you.
57:24Let me go.
57:26I was just looking for something.
57:27I don't know anything.
57:35Looking for something.
57:36Looking for this.
57:44Take him away.
57:59General, the kitchen hand confessed to everything.
58:03He's been Lear's mide in the castle all along.
58:06Yesterday, he received orders to retrieve the seal.
58:09Ivar was clever, hiding the seal in the most dangerous place.
58:12Who would think to search the dungeon walls?
58:14The most dangerous place is often the safest.
58:17Too bad he forgot.
58:18The north is my territory.
58:21Here, nothing can be hidden from me.
58:24General, shall I send men to capture them?
58:26Sending men rashly would only give them an excuse.
58:30Those people are itching for us to make a move so they complain to his majesty.
58:34So we just let it go?
58:35Of course not.
58:37Without the seal, they've lost their bargaining spine with the southern nobles.
58:41Soon enough, they'll have nowhere to go.
58:44Like stray dogs with no home.
58:46When that time comes, not one of them will escape.
58:59What did you just say?
59:01Say it again.
59:02The man we sent was caught.
59:04The seal...
59:05Brian Highhild has it back.
59:07Didn't you say that hiding place was foolproof?
59:09Now look what happened!
59:11The seal is gone.
59:12And we have nothing to tell the southern nobles.
59:14Tell me, what else can we do?
59:16So it's my fault?
59:18You're the one who insisted on retrieving the seal.
59:21Now that something's gone wrong, you're putting all the blame on me!
59:23So what's your suggestion?
59:25That Brian Vild strikes first and hangs our heads from the city walls like banners?
59:28That's not what I meant.
59:29We're out of time.
59:31Without the seal, no one will help us.
59:32The Three Great Houses certainly won't.
59:34They only care about profit.
59:35Right now, we're hot potatoes.
59:36Whoever touches us gets burned.
59:38Then, what do we do?
59:40There's only one place left that will take us.
59:43Where?
59:44The Barbarians.
