Hammer of the Gods Page #4

- And you trust him?

- Why not?

- Because he's a maniac.

- Oh yeah, that he is.

But he's our maniac now.

Vali!

First the sun,

and now the ashes painted red.

Vali!

Vali!

- Steinar.

- Vali.

- Steinar.

- Are you all right?

What happened here?

What happened?

Men came.

Last night.

I heard voices.

I thought it was you.

How come there's not

a scratch on you?

It's another omen.

We should turn back.

The gods are against us.

Who did this? Thieves?

Thieves would have

taken all the horses.

Someone trying to f*** with you.

You wanna f*** with us? Come on.

Come on!

Ivar, how long will it take

us to get there on foot?

Depends how determined you are.

Determined.

We should wait

for the moon to guide us.

Shut your mouth

about the f***ing moon.

Listen.

Vali, you two, wait here.

F*** this. Let's fight!

Grim!

Argh!

F***.

Steinar!

Arghh!

We should go after them,

finish them off.

We move on.

I told you to wait.

I'm not a child, steinar.

Go and get the girl.

Now.

Steinar!

Steinar!

He died a good death,

with his axe in his hand.

Valhalla won't know

what hit them.

There's a clear

view on the hill.

Vali, get up there,

shout if you see anything.

How's ivar?

Nearly done.

We need to move

on as soon as we can.

We have to reach hakan.

They were no ordinary saxons.

They were too well armed,

too well trained.

They didn't just run into us.

You think we're being hunted?

If Harald made an alliance

with their king,

then getting rid of me

would be part of the deal.

They'd need to know

where to look for you.

Maybe someone's helping them.

Don't tell me you believe

in all that crap about moons and omens.

I believe what I see

with my own eyes.

Right.

Here.

Vali dropped it.

Look at the markings.

It's a Saxon coin.

You think vali is a servant

of our enemies?

If he serves Harald, who himself serves

the saxons, it amounts to the same thing.

All from a piece of silver?

He's my brother.

Half brother.

His mother's a Saxon.

- Listen to yourself.

- You say you believe in reason

and logic.

When it's presented to you,

you turn your back on it.

In what way do my actions

betray a lack of reason?

You run when you should fight.

You set off on this

meaningless quest

when you should be

leading your people.

And then you side

with a bastard traitor

who would stick

a knife in your back,

rather than your oldest friend.

What would you have me do, huh?

Hmm? Kill him?

Better if you did.

He's a child. Think about that.

Think about your two daughters.

Dark times

call for dark deeds, steinar.

You're wrong, hagen.

They call for light.

Steinar!

Come on.

Hurry up!

- We can't outrun them!

- I'll slow them down!
