The Secret of Kells Page #2
just talking of you
and of the book.
I think
we are tempting fate,
this is true.
Oh! Fine size of
a place, isn't it?
Mmm.
Good clean air,
fine light coming
from those windows.
Brother!
Very good indeed. Yes.
Is that where
you keep the book?
Hmm?
Uh, is that
where you keep the...
And who might you be?
A very short
Brother I see.
The person who is short
of stature is never
as short of questions.
And of what interest
is the book to you?
Uh, well, the Brothers
were talking
and they said
that Saint Columbkille
himself began it.
Brothers,
now that you've
greeted Brother Aidan,
I must take him to
see the important work
You all have work to do.
The plans are
in my work room.
Ah, but you see,
I was thinking
I could stay here...
Right this way, Brother.
Lad!
Hmm?
Find some food for, uh...
You see,
I am determined to
complete the fortifications
within two years.
So, you're Pangur Ban.
Well, I'm...
Hey, wait.
I'm supposed to feed you.
Wait!
Pangur Ban!
Pangur Ban!
You should
not have come here.
The Northmen will
have followed you...
Was I to stay
and be killed?
I escaped the Vikings
and left them far behind,
Brother Cellach.
Sorry, I mean,
Abbot Cellach.
The book is saved
and I mean to complete it.
Yes.
Well, we have
more pressing things
to complete here.
You mean your wall?
Not my wall, Aidan.
A wall to save civilization.
A wall to save your book!
Pagans, Crom worshippers.
It is with the strength
of our walls
that they will come
to trust the strength
of our faith.
You were always good
at the old drawing,
Cellach.
Yes.
Well, if you'll excuse me,
I have a lot to attend to.
No wall can stop
the Northmen, Abbot.
When they come,
all we can do is run
and hope that
we are fast enough.
Come on, Pangur.
Pangur!
I don't mean
the book any harm.
All I've ever seen
If I could just see
one page...
Please.
Oh. Mmm.
Well!
If it isn't
the little Brother
with the big questions.
I didn't mean to...
I understand.
You got bored eavesdropping
on the Abbot's
private conversation
and decided to rummage
through my things.
Oh, no,
that's not it!
Calm down, lad, calm down.
I won't tell on you.
Maybe I...
The Brothers said
that the sinners are blinded
if they glance at the book.
So maybe I shouldn't.
Is that what you really
believe will happen?
There's nothing
in this life but mist,
is there, lad?
It's your decision,
no one else's.
The cover is not
the real treasure.
Open it!
The work of angels.
"The work of the angels."
Hear that, Pangur?
I didn't know
they made angels
