Previously on "Vikings":

We shall ask the gods
why do they make me earl,

yet kill my son?

- We can have more sons.
- Have we not tried?

Fill me with seed
before it's too late.

If you really want
to be a great man,

should you not be meeting
with King Horik now?

That's where your brother is.

He's already boasting
how he sailed west alone.

But you weren't invited.
You didn't even know about it.

King Horik: There is a Jarl
in Gotaland, Jarl Borg.

He continues to claim he has legal
rights over some of my land.

And now, once again,
he's making threatening noises.

How can I be of help?

Travel to Gotaland
as my emissary?

I shall be forever
in your debt.

Please stay.

Ragnar: Lord of lords,
who will bear me my son?

Jarl Borg: Send a rider tonight
and he'll be back by morning.

Floki: Why don't they let us
dry ourselves and get warm?

If I stay like this,
I will rust.

Rollo: What kind of
fellow is this Jarl Borg?

This is no way to treat guests,

whoever they are.

Arne: Especially if they've
been traveling for days on end.

(Blowing on hands)

(Footsteps scuff the floor)

(Flames crackle)

Jarl Borg: Are you the
emissaries from King Horik?

Well, I can tell you at once you're
wasting your time. It's my land--

and I want it returned to me.

That's all I have to say.

Ragnar: He wants to
make peace with you

and come to some kind of

agreement.

Then tell him if he leaves
my land, we can have peace.

But not before.

How can you make peace,
Jarl Borg,

if you insist on
humiliating him?

Jarl Borg:
If I invade and defeat him,

will he not be
even more humiliated?

Ragnar:
Not if he fights well.

In any case,

I am sure that
he would relish a fight.

(Taps mug on table)

What's your name?

Ragnar Lothbrok.

You are Ragnar Lothbrok,

the one who sailed west?

I am surprised that
you've heard about that.

(Laughs)

How are you surprised?

Everyone has heard
of your exploits.

Why have we not offered our
guests dry clothes and food?

Treat these folk well.

Give them ale, let them
dry out, feed them.

Tomorrow,
you and I will talk again,

Ragnar Lothbrok.

(Retreating footsteps thud
and scuff the floor)

(Wind gusts strongly)

(Plate scrapes)

(Gasps)

Gyda: You haven't
eaten in three days.

(Fire crackles)

You see?

I have fears.

Siggy:
Go to the Seer,

ask if your fears
will come true.

It's sometimes better
not to know one's fate.

Jarl Borg: I take it, from
what you said yesterday,

that King Horik is
prepared to compromise

and offer some deal
regarding those lands of mine,

which he still occupies?

He is prepared to pay you

to renounce your illegal claims

of his lands.

Jarl Borg: You disappoint
me now, Ragnar Lothbrok.

I thought you'd come here
with a serious purpose.

- If you would just name your price.
- Jarl Borg: The land is priceless,

which is why King Horik
wants to keep it for himself.

Rollo: Every piece
of land has a price,

just like every human.

Jarl Borg:
Well, you don't understand.

This is not a small plot of land on
which to grow turnips and onions.

We're talking about
a vast swathe of land,

and on this land,
in the earth, are minerals,

things of great value.

Why else would I assert
my claim?

Ragnar:
King Horik resists your claim,

but still, in good faith,

he is willing
to settle with you.

Rollo: If you will name
a reasonable price.

At the moment,
my price is King Horik's head.

(Borg's men laugh)

Ragnar: Well then,

it seems I am done.

Jarl Borg: Hold on, please,
sit down, sit down.

Let's see if we can find
another way.

What do you have in mind?

What if my claim
was acknowledged

but I was willing to lease the land
back to the king during his lifetime?

Or what if we deferred judgment
on ownership,

but shared the mineral rights?

What do you say,

can we start negotiating
in this manner?

(Cutlery clatters,
Rollo claps Ragnar on the back)

Why not?

Ragnar: I have not been
given the authority to...

negotiate in this manner.

You mean King Horik sent you
here with nothing but a demand?

And yet he speaks of peace!

I don't know
what is in his mind.

Jarl Borg: Well then,
maybe you should ask him.

(Borg's men laugh)

Jarl Borg:
Let me make a suggestion:

Why don't you send
one of your men back

so he can put to King Horik
my ideas for a remedy.

If you think that will work.

Jarl Borg: Good. Your messenger
will take several days.

So, in the meantime, why don't you and
your men go and visit our famous ash tree?

It is famous not only for its size but
because it never loses its leaves,

summer or winter.

Some people even say
it's Yggdrasil,

the tree that holds up the sky.

And I will provide you
an escort.

I only have one,
very small request.

I would like one of your men to stay
behind here as a kind of security.

You understand, I hope?

(Swishes drink through teeth)

My brother Rollo
will stay behind.

(Mug thunks on table)

(Ragner slaps
the guards' shields)

Ragnar:
Floki!

(Hooves clop loudly)

(Horse grunts)

Bjorn:
So how long must we travel?

Guide: It can take us three
days to reach the tree.

It looks like rain.

Come.

(Chicken clucks,
low hum of chatter)

Seer:
Why have you come?

Lagertha:
I am frightened for my husband.

Seer: Do you think your husband
is in some kind of danger?

I've had strange
and disturbing dreams.

What happens in your dreams?

Lagertha: Dark shapes
come to me at night.

Monstrous forms.

When I wake,

they skulk in the shadows,
shapeless,

but no sooner am I asleep
than they creep forward again.

Seer:
Ah, yes.

The shadows come from
hell's hall.

No one can ensnare them,
not even the gods.

Lagertha:
What is it that they want?

To take something from you.

My life?

Seer: No, something far more
important to you than that.

My husband's life?

(Sighs)

Tell me.

Seer: Why must you
all force me up

and unearth me to sorrows?

Your husband is in danger,

but not for his life.

He is in danger
from the magical world.

How?

(Sighs)

Answer me.

Seer: I was unwilling to speak
and I will say no more now!

(Twig snaps)

So, Rollo,

how do you get on
with your brother?

We get along fine.

Why shouldn't we?

No reason.

But not all brothers
get on so well.

I know that
from personal experience.

What do you mean?

I too had a brother.

I loved him.

We were very close,
as befits blood brothers.

We fought together
in the shield-wall.

We shared the same women.

When my father was killed, there was
fierce competition to replace him as jarl.

And although
I was his eldest son

I was not sure
I was going to succeed.

However, I was elected
at the thing.

We had a feast to celebrate.

My wife was there...

my young, beautiful wife -

we'd just gotten married -

and all the others who had stood
for election against me.

My brother poisoned them...

all.

I only survived because...

my wife took the cup
I was about to drink from

and drained it herself
in celebration.

I will never forget
her screams.

It's my wife's screams that will
haunt me for the rest of my life.

My brother denied
responsibility,

but his guilt was too obvious.

So I blinded him
with my own hands,

and then I burned him alive.

That's what I know about
the love between brothers.

(Fire crackles)

Ragnar...

would never do such a thing.

Of course not.

No, your brother is different.

Your brother's a great man,

a great warrior.

As am I.

I'm sure you are.

And yet I've never heard
of you.

(Retreating footsteps)

(Rushing water)

Nils:
Whoa...

Our camp is set up over here.

There's some excellent fishing,
upstream, under the waterfall.

I will go.

And I also,

for everybody knows...

- Three eyes are be.
- Ugh!

(Horses splash through water)

(Rushing water)

(Rushing water)

(Water splashes lightly
and drips)

Servant 1:
You! Look away!

- Servant 2: Who are you?
- Servant 1: Look away at once!

What are we suppose
to be looking at?

Arne: I'm blind! See?!
I can't see anything!

(Laughing)

Agh!
(Blade slices)

Agh!

Arne: (Struggling grunts)
Torstein: Arne!

Servant 1: What? You're
going to try to kill us

for protecting the reputation
of our mistress?

Ha! Shame on you!

Arne: We came upon your
mistress by chance.

We are strangers here,

traveling to the great ash
tree, guests of Jarl Borg.

Servant 1: Jarl Borg? Then why
didn't you say so at once?

Torstein: We will just
return to our horses then.

You spied on me.

We meant no harm.

Servant 1: They say they
are guests of Jarl Borg.

Are you alone?

We are traveling with
Earl Ragnar Lothbrok.

Then I think that Earl Ragnar owes
me an apology on your behalf.

Don't you?

Ragnar: I never knew that

fresh fish was also
packed in salt.

Listen, it's not our fault.

We just saw her bathing.
What were we supposed to do?

Fish.

You did not see her, Ragnar.

So you get your cheek slashed

and now I'm supposed
to apologize

for you two staring
at a naked body.

That's what she said.

Who is she, anyway, to put such
a high price on her nakedness?

We didn't ask.

I'm intrigued.

What's so intriguing?

Sometimes the gods put things
like this in front of us

as some kind of test.

She has set me a challenge

and I am up to task.

See, I'm less interested in
what you say is her beauty,

than what I suspect is her wit.

So tell her

I invite her here to join us...

Neither dressed

nor undressed.

What else?

Neither hungry

nor full,

neither in company

nor alone.

Can you remember all of that,

one eye?

(Goats bleat, geese honk)

Siggy:
What did the Seer tell you?

He said that it's true;
That Ragnar is in danger.

From whom?

I don't know.

Who do you think?

(Seagulls cry outside)

I think he is in danger
from himself.

(Water rushes nearby,
men chatter quietly)

Man: Have you ever been
to Yggdrasil before?

Man 2:
No.

(Birds chirp,
chatter dies down)

Young woman: So, Earl Ragnar,

I come to you as you desired:

Neither dressed nor undressed,

neither hungry nor full,

neither alone...

nor yet in company.

Do I pass your test?

I owe you an apology.

I accept.

Could I offer you some,
uh, horrible salted fish?

I'm very tempted.

You can get tired
of fresh fish.

Come.

Sit, please.

May I ask your name?

My name is Aslaug.

We're on our way to see
the great ash tree.

Of course.

You are welcome to join us.

Will you come along, Aslaug?

(Low hum of chatter,
fire crackles)

Siggy:
(Gasps)

- Siggy, what is it?
- Oh, no, it's nothing.

Oh, I visited my cousin
a few days ago.

She had just buried
her young son.

Why did he die?

One day he was fine,
and the next he

caught a fever that

made him sweat and cry out in
the night, and the next day...

she put him in the ground.

(Exhales shakily)

(Goat bleats nearby,
baby cries)

Siggy:
(Exhales slowly and shakily)

(Baby cries)

(Slicing and chopping sounds)

(Distorted thump)

(Distorted wheezed breath)

(Long, slow exhale)

(Labored breath)

(Breath hisses)

(Distorted landing thud)

Bjorn:
But if it is Yggdrasil,

then it must be the same tree

that Lord Odin
once hanged himself from.

Aslaug:
Why not?

All things are possible.

(Birds chirp)

Ragnar: "I hung from a windy
tree for nine long nights,

wounded by a spear,

dedicated to Odin,

from that tree of which
no man knows

from where its roots run."

(Doors burst open)

(People coughing)

(Labored whisper)
No, please...

Look after my daughter...

First.

Athelstan:
It's all right.

(Wheezing)

(Coughing)

(Men chatter and laugh)

Arne: (Sighs drunkenly)

What's wrong, boy?

What do you think?

My father is making
a fool of himself.

Arne: He's enjoying himself in the
company of a beautiful woman.

What's foolish about that?

Some day you'll do
the same thing.

If Lagertha were here,
she'd cut his balls off.

Arne: (Laughs)

Then it's a good
thing she's not.

Listen to me, my friend.

Your father and mother
are a famous couple.

They love each other.
Everybody knows that.

So don't begrudge your old man
a little harmless fun, huh?

(Claps Bjorn on the back,
laughs heartily)

(Ragnar and Aslaug
murmur quietly)

(Flames crackle)

(Approaching footsteps)

(Ale pours from pitcher)

Jarl Borg: I trust all
is to your satisfaction.

You feed me very well.

Jarl Borg:
You're an important guest.

We would like to keep you entertained
until your brother returns.

You always talk
about my brother.

What choice do I have?

He is your earl.

(Sighs, annoyed)

Which one would you like
tonight?

Why don't you take
both of them?

I don't need to be bribed
with women.

What is it you want, Rollo?

What is it you really want?

(Thunder of galloping hooves)

Floki:
Fenrir, the giant wolf,

could not be constrained
by any means known to man,

so the dwarves forged a chain,

but not from metal.

Nothing made by man
could constrain Fenrir,

so they forged it
from the things we cannot see

and the things we cannot hear.

Like the breath of a fish...

the sound a moving cat makes.

The roots...

of a mountain.

You know?

(Laughs)

Of course I know!

These things interest me!

(Horse whinnies nearby)

I came to ask about Jarl Borg.

He won't sell.

He wants to make a deal.

King Horik:
I'm not interested in deals.

That would make it hard
for Ragnar.

King Horik: Ragnar will come
to the right conclusion,

and make the right decision.

Don't you care
if the negotiations fail?

(Non-committal)
Mm...

(Gasps)

Look!

(Rain patters)

(Water pours)

(Coughs and gasps)

(People cough and wheeze)

(Water drips
as Lagertha wrings out a cloth)

(Weakly)
I am going to die.

No,

you are not going to die.

The Seer might think that he
is the only one in Kattegat

with the gift of prophecy,

but he's wrong,

and I know you are not
going to die.

(Coughing and wheezing)

Aslaug: I should tell you the
truth about who I really am.

I am Princess Aslaug.

My mother was
the shield-maiden Brunhilde.

Everyone knows the
renown of your mother.

But I am not her.

I am myself.

Both my parents are dead now,

and I did not know them anyway.

Why did you come along with me?

Because I had no choice.

Hmm...

(Kissing)

Why did you do that?

Because I had no choice.

(Men snore softly)

(Soft sighs of pleasure)

(Kissing,
sighing with pleasure)

(Birds chirping)

(Horse nickers)

Bjorn:
I hate you.

It's disgusting.

I could not help myself.

Shall I tell that to Lagertha,

your wife?

If you want to.

You cannot love her that much
after all,

no matter what you say,
no matter what people think.

I don't care what people think.

Of course I love your mother.

(Men chatter quietly)

Bjorn: Swear to me that
it will not happen again.

I swear to you
it won't happen again.

I love you.
(Swift kiss)

Now, go play.

(Chuckles)

(Bird chirps)

Man:
(Coughing violently)

(Coughing)

(Harness jingles, goats bleat)

(Chickens cluck)

Unnngh!

(Wagon rattles
as it trundles away)

(People coughing and wheezing)

Siggy: (Screaming hysterically)
No!

(Wailing)
No!

(Wailing)
No!

(Gut-wrenching sobs)

(Weakly)
Athelstan?

(Quietly) He is so weak
he cannot eat.

Pray to the gods,

please, for him.

(Comforting kiss)

(Grunts of effort)

(Torchlight crackles)

(Flames crackle and roar)

(Men snoring softly)

(Kissing)

(Gasping and sighing
with pleasure)

Ragnar: (Whispers)
Wait, no.

(Gasps)

I said no.

(Panting)

(More forcefully)
No.

(Ragged breathes)

(Men snore softly)

(Takes a calming breath,
exhaling sharply)

Lagertha:
Lord of lords...

we make this offering to you,

hoping you will
find it pleasing.

He will make no compromises,

no deals.

He say you must name

Or?

He didn't say "or."

has been entirely wasted,

Ragnar Lothbrok.

You and your men must leave here
