Northmen - A Viking Saga Page #2

Synopsis: A band of Vikings are stranded behind enemy lines on the coast of Alba as their longboat goes down in a dreadful storm. Their only chance of survival is to find a path to the Viking settlement, Danelagh, traversing an unfamiliar and hostile land they have never known. The journey becomes a race for their lives when the King of Alba sends his most feared mercenaries after them. But when the Vikings meet a kind Christian Monk who preaches with his sword, the hunters become the hunted as the Vikings set deadly traps, mercilessly decimating their pursuers one by one, culminating in a final and deadly encounter.

True. But wounded

by an arrow...

...your family will

still pay the full price.

Who are you?

Since this is obviously

not your land...

...I shall ask you first.

I'm Asbjorn.

Son of Egill.

So tell me Asbjorn,

son of Egill...

...what do you and your flock seek

in this part of the country?

The people are poor.

There are no monasteries to raid.

There are still some

tongues to be cut out.

We need to find a healer for our

wounded friend here, Christian monk.

He will not last the day.

He needs shelter.

This is not a good place.

What was that?

One false move and

the pretty dies.

Release her, she's mine.

Pretty.

Drop your weapons!

Drop-it.

Drop them.

Move back. Back!

The keen archer.

Drop-in now.

Thorald?

Let go.

Back away!

Run!

- Not bad for peace loving Christian monk.

- Yes, he's pretty good.

You shall find shelter

this way.

And why should we trust you?

You do not have to.

Lay your wounded

comrade here.

And get the fire started.

Enough weapons to wage war

against the whole of Britain.

The weapons are all that's

left of men...

...who like you, confronted me.

Yeah, right.

Hold him.

Don't fight it.

That is all I can do for now.

You may shelter

here until dawn.

We stay here tonight...

...so that Bjorn can regain his strength...

...and then we continue.

Make no tent on thy ship.

Never sleep in the house.

For a foe within doors

you may view

I know.

I don't trust Christians.

They pray peace, they rule with the sword.

I'll take the first watch.

As soon as they know we are after

they'll just kill her and leave her behind.

And he says we want

to bring her back alive.

Dunchaid is an old man.

Have you considered what will happen to us

when Inghean and her husband succeed him?

That's why we can not

bring her back alive.

The reward will still be large enough.

I will tell the men tomorrow, it was

the King's decision to murder his daughter.

Then he said,

Come to me...

...all you who are weary

and carry heavy burdens

...and I will give you rest.

- Who said that?

- Son of God.

The man who died on the cross?

See it as a symbol

The way I see it,

is that your God is weak...

...and our gods are

strong, so...

What brings you to this land,

Northmen?

We were banished

from our homeland.

Then our ship founded off

the coast not far from here.

Now we have to buy our way

into one of the Viking settlements in the south.

So, your plan is get the bounty

for your prisoner.

You're not that dumb

for a Christian.

And you are not that clever

for a pagan.

Do you have any idea

who she is?

Of noble birth

...perhaps a daughter of...

King?

Yes. You fools have

captured the Lady Inghean...
