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.

- Come in! Come in!

- No, No!

If I be a man of God,

"said Elijah to the captain and his fifty men,"

What is that crazy monk up to?

Then let fire

burn down from heaven

and consume thee!

That will hold them

for a while.

Men!

Bring in him.

Put him out!

Who are you?

We came for her.

Her loving father

ordered us to kill her.

You are lying,

You are lying.

Tell me the truth.

Tell me the truth!

No!

This does indeed

not look like a rescue mission.

We have to get out of here.

Thanks to this monk,

we're trapped.

O ye of little faith.

Get as many weapons

as you can carry.

Come on.

Follow me.

We don't have much of a choice now.

I need to see their bodies.

Where are they?

Clever.

So, what you know of our pursuers?

We have to know

who our enemies are.

You should be

feeling honored.

He sent his best men on the hunt.

His wolf pack.

There said to come from the wild mountainous region

somewhere far in the east.

The Carpathians.

And still just a bunch of murderers.

If it were up to me, they would never

have set a foot on our land.

And if it were up to me?

...you stay here and

out of our way, birdie.

She is useless.

Her father will not pay for her.

He wants her dead.

Let's just hand her over to these mercenaries then...

...at least we have chance

of making out of this country.

Jorund, are you really

that stupid?

Perhaps her father will not pay...

...but any his enemies

certainly will.

Now, move.

Where are you taking us, monk?

Have patience.

What does it mean?

It tells of the path of the serpent,

the ancient Pictish route to the south.

- To the Danelaw.

- Danelaw, what is that, a town?

What?

It's not a town. But a group of Viking

settlements where we can find safety.

What are these, boats?

Your knife.

This is the coast line.

That was my tower.

The highlands...

the moor...

...the Danelaw.

- Is that simple?

- That simple. Except for here.

The King Dunchaid

still has a line of fortifications

Then we break through them.

Not even your great army

was able too.

But there is another way.

With boats, as in painting...

...we can sail around

the fortifications.

Hold it. So now

we will be led by a monk?

Who's to say he is

not luring us into a trap

He is not leading you.

I say we have no other

option but to accept his help.

Asbjorn, the monk

is not one of us...

...he is a Christian,

you should think again.

Who gave us a shelter,

who helped us to escape?

If he wanted us dead,

or caught he's had opportunity enough.

Your decision.

But I shall have my

eye on this monk.

The Path of the Serpent.

The Pics used it for scouting

and hunting.

Goes across the entire highlands.
