1
00:02:45,174 --> 00:02:47,802
Your Highness, we celebrate your victory.
2
00:02:49,262 --> 00:02:50,805
Try again next week, Ander?
3
00:02:51,055 --> 00:02:52,932
We are at your service.
4
00:02:59,105 --> 00:03:00,982
That was a stunning display, Thor.
5
00:03:03,234 --> 00:03:06,153
You were victorious,
despite the trouble with your sword's grip.
6
00:03:06,279 --> 00:03:09,282
- Trouble?
- Plainly, it was too slick.
7
00:03:09,407 --> 00:03:11,617
I'll reprimand the dwarves for you.
8
00:03:11,701 --> 00:03:12,994
Good idea.
9
00:03:22,587 --> 00:03:23,629
Sif.
10
00:03:25,590 --> 00:03:27,592
You missed seeing my victory.
11
00:03:27,675 --> 00:03:30,803
I left right after your opponents
threw you back your weapon.
12
00:03:32,972 --> 00:03:36,142
Well, there was a problem with the grip
due to the dwarves' habit of...
13
00:03:36,267 --> 00:03:40,021
So now you're blaming the dwarves.
Whose idea was that? Loki's?
14
00:03:40,146 --> 00:03:42,481
Are you saying
I shouldn't have won today's match?
15
00:03:42,690 --> 00:03:44,275
Not just today's.
16
00:03:48,196 --> 00:03:51,073
A comment like that
requires an explanation, Sif.
17
00:03:51,365 --> 00:03:53,868
I'll tell you what needs explaining, Thor.
18
00:03:53,951 --> 00:03:56,537
Why you have never once
ceded victory to the Einherjar,
19
00:03:56,662 --> 00:03:59,165
the most celebrated warriors in Asgard!
20
00:03:59,248 --> 00:04:01,209
I am simply more skilled than they.
21
00:04:01,292 --> 00:04:02,418
How can that be?
22
00:04:03,044 --> 00:04:05,880
They have battled the fiercest
creatures in all the nine realms,
23
00:04:05,963 --> 00:04:09,008
and you have never even
left the royal grounds.
24
00:04:09,383 --> 00:04:11,886
You forget I also have the strength of Odin.
25
00:04:12,136 --> 00:04:16,349
Yes, and the authority.
They have no choice but to lose.
26
00:04:16,682 --> 00:04:19,268
Why do you have so little faith in me, Sif?
27
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:22,188
I am the only one who has faith in you.
28
00:04:22,605 --> 00:04:25,566
Everyone else treats you
like a spoiled child!
29
00:04:25,650 --> 00:04:26,609
That is enough!
30
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,201
You've never had
an honest fight in your life.
31
00:04:35,701 --> 00:04:39,038
Since you're a fair hand with a blade,
32
00:04:39,121 --> 00:04:42,208
perhaps you should
make an honest man out of me.
33
00:04:43,042 --> 00:04:45,044
Be careful how you jest.
34
00:04:45,336 --> 00:04:47,129
Choose your weapon, wench.
35
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:59,433
A barn tool.
You think less of my skill than I realized.
36
00:05:14,490 --> 00:05:16,033
Good-bye, Thor.
37
00:05:19,871 --> 00:05:21,789
Thor was wrong about you, Sif.
38
00:05:22,039 --> 00:05:24,083
You'll fit right in with the Valkyries.
39
00:05:25,376 --> 00:05:29,839
You do your brother no favors, Loki.
Stop protecting him.
40
00:05:49,317 --> 00:05:50,276
There we were,
41
00:05:50,651 --> 00:05:53,696
clinging to the side of
a sheer mountain of ice,
42
00:05:54,322 --> 00:05:57,450
plumes of fire
billowing up from the gorge below.
43
00:05:59,493 --> 00:06:02,371
Fire? In Jštunheim?
44
00:06:02,497 --> 00:06:04,165
Dragons, love.
45
00:06:05,082 --> 00:06:06,584
How many were after you?
46
00:06:06,667 --> 00:06:08,294
- Seven.
- Ten.
47
00:06:08,377 --> 00:06:10,129
At least a dozen.
48
00:06:13,299 --> 00:06:16,469
And Frost Giants were
advancing on the horizon.
49
00:06:16,552 --> 00:06:18,679
There was no escape, but...
50
00:06:18,804 --> 00:06:23,226
But the Warriors Three would not be
so easily diverted from their quest,
51
00:06:24,185 --> 00:06:27,980
for the Sword of Surtur
is worth risking both life and limb.
52
00:06:31,943 --> 00:06:35,488
Well, look who it is! Greetings, Thor.
53
00:06:35,613 --> 00:06:38,324
Congratulations on your victory
in today's match.
54
00:06:38,658 --> 00:06:42,703
Of course, his victory pales to
those found outside the arena.
55
00:06:47,375 --> 00:06:50,878
Perhaps you'd like to
join us on our next quest, Thor.
56
00:06:51,003 --> 00:06:52,338
You know he can't, Hogun.
57
00:06:52,421 --> 00:06:54,215
He's not allowed to leave the kingdom.
58
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,054
You dare mock the prince of Asgard?
59
00:07:00,179 --> 00:07:05,059
Thor, we speak only in jest.
We're friends, remember?
60
00:07:09,897 --> 00:07:12,191
What crawled into his keg?
61
00:07:18,030 --> 00:07:20,366
Your Eminence, we managed to learn
62
00:07:20,449 --> 00:07:22,785
that the Valkyries have
established a new training camp
63
00:07:22,910 --> 00:07:26,372
in the branches of Yggdrasill,
west of Svartalfheim.
64
00:07:28,249 --> 00:07:29,584
Father.
65
00:07:33,713 --> 00:07:36,507
Skala, how could you
come by this information
66
00:07:36,591 --> 00:07:39,427
when the scout tracking them
has failed to return?
67
00:07:39,969 --> 00:07:44,432
We were able to follow Brunhilde
after she had secretly met with Lady Sif.
68
00:07:45,975 --> 00:07:48,686
Thank you, all.
This concludes today's council.
69
00:07:49,604 --> 00:07:50,563
Gentlemen.
70
00:08:01,157 --> 00:08:04,160
Now, Son, tell me what troubles you.
71
00:08:04,452 --> 00:08:08,247
Father, I wish your permission to ride
with the Einherjar on one of their patrols.
72
00:08:08,498 --> 00:08:09,749
You know my answer.
73
00:08:09,957 --> 00:08:11,417
But I do not agree with it.
74
00:08:11,626 --> 00:08:14,754
You are the son of Odin, and, as such,
75
00:08:14,837 --> 00:08:17,757
you have different responsibilities
than that of a warrior.
76
00:08:17,965 --> 00:08:20,927
But at least a warrior knows
the true limits of his abilities.
77
00:08:21,177 --> 00:08:26,098
I see what brings you here.
You believe you've outgrown your training.
78
00:08:26,724 --> 00:08:31,229
Some say the Einherjar let me win, Father.
Is that true?
79
00:08:32,730 --> 00:08:33,940
Yes.
80
00:08:35,358 --> 00:08:36,317
Why?
81
00:08:36,442 --> 00:08:40,404
You chose to turn your training
into public entertainment.
82
00:08:40,696 --> 00:08:45,743
But this kingdom cannot afford to see
its prince defeated week after week.
83
00:08:46,035 --> 00:08:48,746
So you, too, doubt my abilities.
84
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,084
Being a king is not about
drawing a sword in battle.
85
00:08:53,167 --> 00:08:55,628
It's about avoiding battle entirely.
86
00:08:55,795 --> 00:08:58,923
Hiding from conflict sounds more like
one of Loki's strengths.
87
00:08:59,006 --> 00:09:00,800
Perhaps he should inherit your throne.
88
00:09:01,008 --> 00:09:06,430
Perhaps he will. But as for you,
there will be no leaving Asgard.
89
00:09:06,514 --> 00:09:11,143
I am your king and your father,
and you will obey me.
90
00:09:37,170 --> 00:09:39,172
You may come out, Algrim.
91
00:09:42,258 --> 00:09:45,344
I'm impressed.
You have detected me in shadow.
92
00:09:46,053 --> 00:09:47,138
Not many can.
93
00:09:48,097 --> 00:09:50,683
Truth be told, I can't either.
94
00:09:50,766 --> 00:09:52,935
But I don't know of a time that
you didn't come and check on me
95
00:09:53,060 --> 00:09:55,146
after I had a fight with Father.
96
00:09:55,229 --> 00:09:59,358
Typically, because you would insist on
pursuing some sort of foolishness.
97
00:09:59,775 --> 00:10:04,071
And I always let you talk me out of it.
But not this time.
98
00:10:05,156 --> 00:10:10,203
Thor, where are you going
that you need such a weapon?
99
00:10:11,370 --> 00:10:14,749
Are you aware that there was
a test of manhood for young warriors?
100
00:10:15,208 --> 00:10:16,417
A secret quest.
101
00:10:16,542 --> 00:10:18,085
Yes, I know of it.
102
00:10:18,211 --> 00:10:23,216
It's a rite of passage.
Warriors pursue it every year. No one dies.
103
00:10:23,549 --> 00:10:26,552
Because the object of the quest
will never be found.
104
00:10:26,802 --> 00:10:29,764
The test is not
in finding the Sword of Surtur
105
00:10:29,847 --> 00:10:30,973
but in looking for it.
106
00:10:31,098 --> 00:10:34,936
So, it is the art of trespassing you aspire to.
107
00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:38,022
Yes, it is. When it's in Jštunheim.
108
00:10:38,397 --> 00:10:43,402
Thor, our truce with the Frost Giants
is fragile at best.
109
00:10:43,778 --> 00:10:45,780
They must not find you in their realm.
110
00:10:46,239 --> 00:10:50,243
They won't.
You think too highly of those lumbering...
111
00:10:51,202 --> 00:10:54,664
Forgive me, Algrim.
That was thoughtless of me.
112
00:10:55,706 --> 00:10:57,500
Rest easy, Thor.
113
00:10:57,959 --> 00:11:03,464
But, if nothing else,
let my people's fate serve as an example.
114
00:11:03,923 --> 00:11:06,217
The Frost Giants are dangerous.
115
00:11:06,467 --> 00:11:10,513
I know. I promise to be vigilant. And, Algrim,
116
00:11:10,638 --> 00:11:13,266
as always, this stays between us.
117
00:11:14,267 --> 00:11:17,854
I will remain silent for as long as possible.
118
00:11:17,979 --> 00:11:20,523
Thank you. You are a good friend.
119
00:11:39,167 --> 00:11:40,751
I'm doing it.
120
00:11:41,627 --> 00:11:43,713
Now try your hand at influencing it.
121
00:11:44,505 --> 00:11:46,299
Keep it to three words.
122
00:11:54,724 --> 00:12:00,897
A spell's power is in its whisper.
A true master needs only to think it.
123
00:12:14,869 --> 00:12:16,662
You find humor in this?
124
00:12:16,913 --> 00:12:22,293
Loki, you granted magic to water.
It became a snake, and a snake bites.
125
00:12:22,919 --> 00:12:24,295
You did it perfectly.
126
00:12:24,378 --> 00:12:25,505
I did?
127
00:12:25,588 --> 00:12:28,049
Don't you know how amazing you are?
128
00:12:28,549 --> 00:12:32,470
Metal and rock are easy,
but to have an apprentice control water,
129
00:12:33,054 --> 00:12:37,600
it's a triple threat, for it is also mist and ice.
130
00:12:38,768 --> 00:12:40,228
Amora.
131
00:12:44,065 --> 00:12:45,274
Leave us.
132
00:12:46,150 --> 00:12:47,860
Yes, Your Highness.
133
00:12:52,573 --> 00:12:53,950
Do you need something, Brother?
134
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,869
Yes. How is your magic?
135
00:12:57,203 --> 00:12:59,664
It happens to be fairly advanced. Why?
136
00:13:00,081 --> 00:13:02,458
Because we're stealing aboard
the Thunder Runner,
137
00:13:02,583 --> 00:13:04,585
and we'll need your talents on our journey.
138
00:13:05,628 --> 00:13:07,713
I lied. I'm not very good.
139
00:13:20,601 --> 00:13:24,146
This is it.
We'll conceal ourselves in the hold.
140
00:13:24,438 --> 00:13:26,899
Conceal ourselves? From our friends?
141
00:13:27,275 --> 00:13:28,901
Friends who are not foolhardy enough
142
00:13:28,985 --> 00:13:31,696
to set sail with the sons of Odin
on their vessel.
143
00:13:31,779 --> 00:13:34,574
- Now make haste before...
- A mere seven days,
144
00:13:34,657 --> 00:13:38,578
though it will feel like an eternity
while in the throes of battle
145
00:13:38,703 --> 00:13:40,746
against the beasts of Jštunheim.
146
00:13:40,872 --> 00:13:43,416
Bring us something, won't you?
147
00:13:43,541 --> 00:13:48,337
Perhaps a claw or fang
of a savage white bear would please you.
148
00:14:22,330 --> 00:14:25,124
It's astonishing, Loki.
149
00:14:25,208 --> 00:14:27,710
This is a view of Asgard
like we've never seen.
150
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,296
And one I never cared to see.
151
00:14:30,379 --> 00:14:31,756
You always fret.
152
00:14:32,131 --> 00:14:34,258
The Warriors Three have
returned from this adventure
153
00:14:34,342 --> 00:14:36,969
for the last three seasons
with nary a scratch.
154
00:14:37,553 --> 00:14:41,390
But we're royalty.
We're not equipped to handle adventure.
155
00:14:41,766 --> 00:14:45,686
Fear not, little brother,
for I am a skilled hand with a blade.
156
00:14:46,020 --> 00:14:47,438
I'll protect you.
157
00:14:48,397 --> 00:14:51,734
Sif was right. I've done him no favors.
158
00:14:57,490 --> 00:14:58,741
Algrim?
159
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,162
Sire? Is there trouble?
160
00:15:03,496 --> 00:15:07,375
No. I'm just looking for my sons.
Have you seen them?
161
00:15:08,084 --> 00:15:10,127
Not for hours, my lord.
162
00:15:10,211 --> 00:15:14,131
But it is not uncommon for them to be away
from their chambers at this time of night.
163
00:15:15,216 --> 00:15:18,427
Sire, have you found
a reason to be concerned?
164
00:15:19,929 --> 00:15:21,556
Thor and I had an argument.
165
00:15:22,390 --> 00:15:26,811
Quarrels are to be expected.
He is nearing the age of adulthood.
166
00:15:27,186 --> 00:15:28,771
Yes, nearing.
167
00:15:29,230 --> 00:15:32,358
He has yet to arrive,
despite what he believes.
168
00:15:32,483 --> 00:15:34,610
I'm afraid he may have
done something foolish.
169
00:15:35,278 --> 00:15:37,864
You would think
that someone known as the "All Father"
170
00:15:37,947 --> 00:15:41,492
should possess the wisdom
to raise two boys.
171
00:15:41,576 --> 00:15:44,704
They are not your average boys, Sire.
172
00:15:45,413 --> 00:15:50,793
Algrim, am I a good father?
Do I shield them from too much?
173
00:15:51,460 --> 00:15:54,422
Though my children never had the chance
174
00:15:55,631 --> 00:15:57,175
to come of age,
175
00:15:57,925 --> 00:16:01,095
I do believe that keeping sons too close
176
00:16:01,304 --> 00:16:04,265
could very well be what drives them away.
177
00:16:05,474 --> 00:16:10,897
Some lessons, my lord,
can only be learned with real consequences.
178
00:16:11,772 --> 00:16:14,984
So, perhaps that is what
you can teach them now.
179
00:16:17,236 --> 00:16:22,450
Your counsel is wise, Algrim.
And, as always, appreciated.
180
00:16:34,420 --> 00:16:35,755
Loki, wake up.
181
00:16:36,380 --> 00:16:37,465
What?
182
00:16:37,590 --> 00:16:39,133
The ship lies still.
183
00:16:39,467 --> 00:16:41,344
We're in Jötunheim.
184
00:16:47,391 --> 00:16:49,435
Come back, and I'll kill you!
185
00:16:51,103 --> 00:16:52,813
It's smaller than I imagined.
186
00:17:19,340 --> 00:17:22,593
Say, love, do you know where
a gallant warrior like myself
187
00:17:22,677 --> 00:17:26,472
might purchase the claw or fang
of a savage white bear?
188
00:17:33,354 --> 00:17:34,897
Another round.
189
00:17:39,819 --> 00:17:41,988
Going after Nixies now, are you Fandral?
190
00:17:42,238 --> 00:17:43,823
Having established your standards,
191
00:17:43,948 --> 00:17:47,618
let's maybe try your hand at a nice,
plump hobgoblin girl.
192
00:17:49,203 --> 00:17:52,540
You jest, but in the later hours, who knows?
193
00:17:54,792 --> 00:17:58,421
Change that grim face, Hogun,
or we'll make you go sit with the Greeks.
194
00:18:01,215 --> 00:18:03,843
Spending a half fortnight
in this rotting armpit,
195
00:18:03,968 --> 00:18:07,013
merely to steal stories, has lost its charm.
196
00:18:07,388 --> 00:18:10,516
What hasn't lost its charm for you, Hogun?
197
00:18:21,986 --> 00:18:23,571
I believe I'll go turn in.
198
00:18:31,579 --> 00:18:33,623
We're about to get a new story.
199
00:18:33,748 --> 00:18:36,709
I'll secure us a little roasted
mystery meat, boys,
200
00:18:36,834 --> 00:18:39,504
while you two spread out
and see what can be overheard.
201
00:18:39,587 --> 00:18:41,506
Do you know the one about
the three explorers
202
00:18:41,589 --> 00:18:44,884
whose travels never took them
beyond an outpost inn?
203
00:18:47,261 --> 00:18:48,513
Hello, friends.
204
00:18:52,141 --> 00:18:56,729
Sire, what brings you
this far from the kingdom?
205
00:18:56,938 --> 00:19:00,733
A drafty little bucket
named the Thunder Runner. Know of it?
206
00:19:01,108 --> 00:19:03,778
You stowed away?
207
00:19:03,903 --> 00:19:05,655
Upon our vessel?
208
00:19:06,447 --> 00:19:07,698
It gets worse.
209
00:19:09,534 --> 00:19:11,953
And you brought Loki.
210
00:19:12,328 --> 00:19:14,705
We'll all be drawn and quartered.
211
00:19:16,332 --> 00:19:21,420
Relax. Lift your steins for a toast, lads.
212
00:19:21,504 --> 00:19:24,090
To frigid worlds and lost swords.
213
00:19:25,842 --> 00:19:27,677
You took my ale.
214
00:19:28,886 --> 00:19:32,473
You dare lay your foul-smelling paw
on the son of Odin?
215
00:19:35,476 --> 00:19:37,603
Stay your hands!
216
00:19:44,819 --> 00:19:46,404
Fenris.
217
00:19:54,328 --> 00:19:57,039
And I thought his paw was foul-smelling.
218
00:20:28,029 --> 00:20:29,447
Enough!
219
00:20:36,287 --> 00:20:39,665
Barkeep, some fiend is making off
with your cash box.
220
00:20:46,881 --> 00:20:48,174
Excuse me!
221
00:20:50,801 --> 00:20:52,762
Who started it?
222
00:20:52,887 --> 00:20:54,597
Does it ever matter?
223
00:21:16,536 --> 00:21:18,830
- Have you seen my sword?
- No.
224
00:21:19,580 --> 00:21:21,207
Let's look for it.
225
00:21:44,438 --> 00:21:47,024
Greetings, ladies. Perhaps later we can...
226
00:21:52,113 --> 00:21:55,366
Have you seen a sword?
Gold, bejeweled, perfectly balanced?
227
00:22:00,663 --> 00:22:02,415
Here, try this.
228
00:22:05,585 --> 00:22:06,919
Well, it's better than nothing.
229
00:22:17,763 --> 00:22:20,641
Did you use a little... You know.
230
00:22:21,225 --> 00:22:22,226
No.
231
00:22:29,942 --> 00:22:31,611
You're mine!
232
00:22:46,417 --> 00:22:48,336
That just breaks the heart.
233
00:22:49,754 --> 00:22:51,672
Come on, come on, come on.
234
00:23:19,033 --> 00:23:22,453
Well, lads, I'd say
that's enough adventure for one trip.
235
00:23:22,578 --> 00:23:23,538
Agreed.
236
00:23:24,789 --> 00:23:26,916
Then let's put about ship
and head for home.
237
00:23:27,041 --> 00:23:29,126
With charitable winds,
we can be there by morning.
238
00:23:29,544 --> 00:23:31,045
Nay, friends.
239
00:23:31,879 --> 00:23:34,173
We came in search of Surtur's sword,
240
00:23:34,674 --> 00:23:37,260
and we'll not return home until we find it.
241
00:23:39,053 --> 00:23:42,265
You heard my brother. On to Jötunheim.
242
00:24:01,409 --> 00:24:03,995
While I commend your aim, novice,
243
00:24:04,287 --> 00:24:07,790
it is evident that
one man has claim on your focus.
244
00:24:10,042 --> 00:24:11,961
My apologies, Brunhilde.
245
00:24:12,503 --> 00:24:14,046
No need to apologize.
246
00:24:14,672 --> 00:24:17,508
We've all joined the sisterhood
for similar reasons.
247
00:24:19,135 --> 00:24:21,012
But this is Konurlifandi,
248
00:24:21,888 --> 00:24:24,682
a place where we sever our reliance on men.
249
00:24:26,267 --> 00:24:29,520
Where we are free to
reach our true potential.
250
00:24:29,604 --> 00:24:31,981
Yes, ma'am. 'Tis why I've come here.
251
00:24:32,398 --> 00:24:34,734
Then I offer this advice, Sif.
252
00:24:34,859 --> 00:24:38,446
Men are useful for one reason
and one reason only.
253
00:24:38,571 --> 00:24:41,073
Beyond that, they should be disposed of.
254
00:24:41,782 --> 00:24:43,659
Now return to the line.
255
00:25:06,349 --> 00:25:09,352
I have to say, I'm close to weeping, lads.
256
00:25:09,477 --> 00:25:14,899
Aye. She was far from pretty,
but she did perform her duty well.
257
00:25:15,024 --> 00:25:17,360
A quality I've grown to appreciate.
258
00:25:17,485 --> 00:25:21,405
Gentlemen, why linger?
We have nowhere to go but onward.
259
00:25:41,175 --> 00:25:45,596
How can you whistle? My lips are frozen.
260
00:25:47,056 --> 00:25:49,642
I've never felt such cold in my life,
261
00:25:49,725 --> 00:25:52,478
yet you walk as if
crossing the spring meadow.
262
00:25:53,479 --> 00:25:55,273
There must be but one explanation.
263
00:25:55,356 --> 00:25:57,024
I'm tougher than you.
264
00:25:57,149 --> 00:26:01,737
Fine. Then I'll let you fend off
the first Frost Giant, little brother.
265
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,034
Stand guard. I sense movement.
266
00:26:22,550 --> 00:26:27,096
Snow sprites. What would we do
without your keen senses, Hogun?
267
00:26:32,727 --> 00:26:35,521
Hey! Thieving little pest!
268
00:26:36,022 --> 00:26:39,984
Keep alert, friends!
Surtur's sword won't be looking for us.
269
00:27:18,523 --> 00:27:19,649
Thor?
270
00:27:28,282 --> 00:27:30,743
You're not giving up, are you, Brother?
271
00:27:30,868 --> 00:27:32,537
I fear Algrim's right.
272
00:27:32,620 --> 00:27:35,122
- About what?
- The sword.
273
00:27:35,248 --> 00:27:37,250
He said it will never be found.
274
00:27:37,375 --> 00:27:39,168
What does Algrim know of it?
275
00:27:39,627 --> 00:27:44,340
He knows Jötunheim well, Loki.
It claimed his people.
276
00:27:44,465 --> 00:27:46,551
It wiped them out as if they never existed.
277
00:27:46,676 --> 00:27:49,804
Nay, it was
the Frost Giants who claimed them.
278
00:27:49,929 --> 00:27:52,223
The land itself is not to blame.
279
00:27:52,431 --> 00:27:56,352
It matters not.
We hold no kinship with the ice.
280
00:27:56,477 --> 00:27:58,855
Therefore, its secrets are safe from us.
281
00:27:58,980 --> 00:28:01,566
Every secret has its clues.
282
00:28:03,943 --> 00:28:05,778
Do you recall the many tales of valor
283
00:28:05,903 --> 00:28:08,406
we were forced to commit to memory
as children?
284
00:28:08,489 --> 00:28:10,575
Yes. I love those stories.
285
00:28:11,117 --> 00:28:14,662
Verily. I can recite
Odin's great defeat of Surtur by heart.
286
00:28:14,996 --> 00:28:16,330
I, as well.
287
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:24,922
Then you should recognize this valley.
'Tis where that defeat took place.
288
00:28:25,006 --> 00:28:29,385
Yes. Yes, I see it. It began there.
289
00:28:32,054 --> 00:28:35,725
Father held the only weapon
that could rival Surtur's sword,
290
00:28:36,142 --> 00:28:38,269
his spear, Gungnir.
291
00:28:44,775 --> 00:28:46,944
Yet he bided his time.
292
00:28:49,739 --> 00:28:54,327
A wise warrior, Father knew
his only hope was to tire the fire giant first.
293
00:28:54,452 --> 00:28:58,080
So exhausted was Surtur,
that to lift his sword,
294
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:00,833
he needed both hands.
295
00:29:00,917 --> 00:29:03,002
- Thus exposing his chest.
- Thus exposing his chest.
296
00:29:17,225 --> 00:29:20,228
It must be there,
at the foot of that mountain.
297
00:29:44,752 --> 00:29:47,839
I cannot take another step.
298
00:29:51,717 --> 00:29:53,970
Stand guard. I hear something.
299
00:29:54,720 --> 00:30:00,184
What this time, Hogun? A moth? A cricket?
Perhaps a...
300
00:30:00,434 --> 00:30:02,270
Don't move.
301
00:30:22,582 --> 00:30:23,583
Enter.
302
00:30:27,795 --> 00:30:31,924
Sire, a visitor from the outer realm
seeks an audience.
303
00:30:32,341 --> 00:30:34,635
You manage affairs today, Algrim.
304
00:30:35,803 --> 00:30:39,432
I have been,
but this concerns Thor and Loki.
305
00:30:39,807 --> 00:30:40,808
Show him in.
306
00:30:50,067 --> 00:30:51,402
What news do you bring?
307
00:30:52,028 --> 00:30:57,867
News? I've come for compensation.
My dwelling was destroyed!
308
00:30:58,159 --> 00:31:00,119
And for what reason
do you seek payment here?
309
00:31:00,578 --> 00:31:03,414
Because the sons of Odin were responsible!
310
00:31:06,167 --> 00:31:08,211
One of them left this!
311
00:31:35,071 --> 00:31:38,157
Brother, over there.
312
00:31:50,878 --> 00:31:52,672
It's magnificent.
313
00:31:52,797 --> 00:31:55,299
And large. Very large!
314
00:31:55,675 --> 00:31:57,844
Who of us knew it would be that large?
315
00:31:57,969 --> 00:31:59,136
Not me.
316
00:31:59,220 --> 00:32:00,805
I'm very surprised.
317
00:32:00,888 --> 00:32:03,057
The dwarves called it Elderstahl.
318
00:32:03,474 --> 00:32:06,936
They fashioned it to
fit the hand of whoever wields it.
319
00:32:07,728 --> 00:32:09,355
Hogun, can you break it free?
320
00:32:09,897 --> 00:32:12,733
Aye. Stand back.
321
00:33:29,101 --> 00:33:30,353
Brother?
322
00:33:30,478 --> 00:33:32,563
I've never felt such power.
323
00:33:32,813 --> 00:33:36,275
This has moved beyond a harmless quest.
324
00:33:36,359 --> 00:33:39,278
We must not be found in Jötunheim
with such a weapon.
325
00:33:39,654 --> 00:33:43,950
Why be concerned, Loki?
I defy anyone to confront us,
326
00:33:44,033 --> 00:33:46,786
especially now that we are armed with this.
327
00:34:16,023 --> 00:34:19,777
We must return to Asgard with due haste.
328
00:34:19,861 --> 00:34:23,489
Agreed, but for that,
we must first make our way north.
329
00:34:24,365 --> 00:34:25,491
North?
331
00:34:26,534 --> 00:34:30,830
We need a new means of travel,
so we'll acquire horses in Konurlifandi.
332
00:34:31,372 --> 00:34:32,874
From the Valkyries?
333
00:34:32,999 --> 00:34:36,085
We'd be lucky to leave with our lives,
let alone horses.
334
00:34:36,210 --> 00:34:37,503
They'll never help us.
335
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,756
They won't, but Sif will.
336
00:34:40,882 --> 00:34:43,926
So, it's Sif that lures you there.
337
00:34:45,928 --> 00:34:47,013
No, Loki.
338
00:34:47,305 --> 00:34:50,141
I'm just attempting to get us home.
That's all.
339
00:34:53,019 --> 00:34:55,980
Hear that?
We're heading to the Valkyrie training camp.
340
00:34:57,356 --> 00:35:00,610
And passing from
one frigid world to another.
341
00:35:01,152 --> 00:35:07,533
Fandral, just how many of their
maiden warriors have you angered?
342
00:35:08,326 --> 00:35:11,537
Let's just say
I bear an unsettling resemblance
343
00:35:11,621 --> 00:35:14,123
to their archery targets.
344
00:35:34,936 --> 00:35:36,437
We have intruders!
345
00:36:04,131 --> 00:36:06,175
They have the scent. Let's go!
346
00:36:25,319 --> 00:36:26,571
Get down.
347
00:36:29,824 --> 00:36:30,908
Look there.
348
00:36:32,660 --> 00:36:35,913
Sentries. We must find
another means of crossing.
349
00:36:36,164 --> 00:36:40,585
You remember the realm charts as well as I.
This is the only northern route.
350
00:36:41,335 --> 00:36:44,630
We've other trouble. There.
351
00:36:50,011 --> 00:36:51,804
Brother, they sleep.
352
00:36:52,013 --> 00:36:53,723
We can just steal past.
353
00:36:54,682 --> 00:36:55,683
Let's go.
354
00:37:27,715 --> 00:37:29,258
Intruders!
355
00:37:30,885 --> 00:37:33,304
Stop the intruders!
356
00:37:38,392 --> 00:37:39,393
Run!
357
00:37:47,109 --> 00:37:48,361
Loki!
358
00:37:52,490 --> 00:37:53,783
Stay back!
359
00:37:56,744 --> 00:38:00,623
We are Odin's sons,
heirs to the throne of Asgard.
360
00:38:01,082 --> 00:38:02,792
We mean you no harm.
361
00:38:03,251 --> 00:38:05,044
Just let us pass.
362
00:38:09,131 --> 00:38:10,466
Go, go, go!
363
00:38:12,301 --> 00:38:13,845
They come again!
364
00:38:15,012 --> 00:38:16,764
I said stay back!
365
00:38:31,654 --> 00:38:32,697
No!
366
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,387
I did not mean for that to happen.
367
00:38:58,431 --> 00:39:02,101
I know, Brother, but we must go.
368
00:39:09,525 --> 00:39:11,277
Inform the king at once.
369
00:39:28,169 --> 00:39:29,337
Thor.
370
00:39:29,462 --> 00:39:30,505
Say nothing, Loki.
371
00:39:31,255 --> 00:39:35,468
It was not your fault.
Those beasts attacked us.
372
00:39:36,093 --> 00:39:37,970
We were the trespassers, Loki!
373
00:39:38,346 --> 00:39:42,725
They were in the right, and now,
two Frost Giants have died by my hand!
374
00:39:54,278 --> 00:39:55,738
What is your report?
375
00:39:56,113 --> 00:39:59,700
Your Majesty, Elderstahl has been found.
376
00:40:00,785 --> 00:40:01,994
By whom?
377
00:40:02,328 --> 00:40:03,913
The sons of Odin,
378
00:40:04,038 --> 00:40:07,208
and they killed two sentries
escaping to the North.
379
00:40:09,377 --> 00:40:10,670
Father?
380
00:40:14,465 --> 00:40:19,512
Prepare my army.
We march on Asgard this day.
381
00:40:43,244 --> 00:40:45,663
He should not be going in alone.
382
00:40:45,746 --> 00:40:47,456
No man should go in there alone.
383
00:40:47,707 --> 00:40:49,125
No man should go in there at all!
384
00:41:18,988 --> 00:41:20,072
Sif.
385
00:41:23,534 --> 00:41:24,994
No! Wait!
386
00:41:25,286 --> 00:41:27,079
What madness brings you here?
387
00:41:27,413 --> 00:41:29,874
I need you.
388
00:41:32,877 --> 00:41:33,878
You what?
389
00:41:34,754 --> 00:41:38,090
I need you to secure five horses for me.
390
00:41:41,844 --> 00:41:44,096
I've no time for your hostility, Sif.
391
00:41:45,139 --> 00:41:46,557
I just require your help.
392
00:41:47,433 --> 00:41:50,353
No. I came here to get away from you.
393
00:41:50,728 --> 00:41:52,605
Now leave before you're discovered.
394
00:41:52,688 --> 00:41:55,650
Listen to me. I've just come from Jötunheim.
395
00:41:55,733 --> 00:41:58,611
Terrible things have happened.
I must get home.
396
00:41:59,070 --> 00:42:01,030
Why would you go to Jötunheim?
397
00:42:02,156 --> 00:42:03,866
To find this.
398
00:42:08,246 --> 00:42:10,081
The Sword of Surtur.
399
00:42:13,668 --> 00:42:15,795
Now, please, will you help me?
400
00:42:19,340 --> 00:42:21,467
On your knees, male!
401
00:42:24,679 --> 00:42:26,681
Or die where you stand.
402
00:42:39,694 --> 00:42:41,571
There is a chill in the air.
403
00:42:43,489 --> 00:42:45,032
A familiar one.
404
00:42:46,367 --> 00:42:48,661
I'll prepare your chariot, my lord.
405
00:43:39,045 --> 00:43:41,881
Geirmarr, I seek an audience
with your father.
406
00:43:42,173 --> 00:43:43,883
You may speak to me.
407
00:43:44,342 --> 00:43:47,637
Then I will state it simply for your benefit.
408
00:43:48,012 --> 00:43:50,932
You violate our peace accord
by your presence here.
409
00:43:51,265 --> 00:43:55,895
We no longer have an accord.
Thor made positive of that.
410
00:43:57,188 --> 00:44:00,274
King Thrym, was our truce so tenuous
411
00:44:00,399 --> 00:44:03,569
that it could be broken
by a youth's careless trespass?
412
00:44:03,694 --> 00:44:05,404
Careless trespass?
413
00:44:06,697 --> 00:44:09,951
He took up Elderstahl
and slew two Northern sentries!
414
00:44:10,076 --> 00:44:11,035
He what?
415
00:44:20,878 --> 00:44:23,798
Odin, you knew not of this?
416
00:44:24,632 --> 00:44:25,591
No.
417
00:44:27,260 --> 00:44:29,220
I'm afraid it changes nothing.
418
00:44:29,762 --> 00:44:34,100
By his actions,
Thor has declared war on Jötunheim.
419
00:44:39,522 --> 00:44:43,568
Your Eminence, what do you seek
in return for averting this war?
420
00:44:53,953 --> 00:44:57,456
All Father, the Frost Giants
continue gathering in the valley.
421
00:44:57,665 --> 00:44:59,584
They await the meeting of their terms.
422
00:44:59,667 --> 00:45:00,793
Which are?
423
00:45:01,210 --> 00:45:04,630
I have until sunrise
to turn over the Sword of Surtur.
424
00:45:05,798 --> 00:45:07,008
He found it?
425
00:45:07,258 --> 00:45:11,637
Yes, and it was used to kill
two Frost sentries in the North.
426
00:45:12,388 --> 00:45:15,850
Sire, we must find them
before the Jštuns do.
427
00:45:15,933 --> 00:45:18,311
With your permission,
I will accompany the Einherjar
428
00:45:18,394 --> 00:45:20,438
to escort them home.
429
00:45:20,813 --> 00:45:23,441
How would you know where to look?
They could be anywhere.
430
00:45:25,318 --> 00:45:27,612
The slayings took place in the North,
431
00:45:27,695 --> 00:45:31,073
where the only sentries would be
posted here at this bridge.
432
00:45:31,199 --> 00:45:35,244
If they crossed over, the route to Asgard
would take them through Svartalfheim.
433
00:45:36,287 --> 00:45:38,164
You would be willing to go back there?
434
00:45:38,539 --> 00:45:40,875
To save your sons, yes.
435
00:45:42,126 --> 00:45:46,005
Your selfless actions
will not go unrewarded, Algrim.
436
00:45:46,506 --> 00:45:47,798
Thank you.
437
00:46:08,903 --> 00:46:11,489
Hear me well, Odin's son.
438
00:46:11,572 --> 00:46:15,368
Asgard has made a grave error
in sending you here.
439
00:46:15,618 --> 00:46:19,455
The error is yours, Brunhilde,
for I did not come alone.
440
00:46:22,375 --> 00:46:24,252
You might as well have.
441
00:46:29,465 --> 00:46:33,427
Hildie, my love,
why don't we end this silliness...
442
00:46:33,553 --> 00:46:35,346
Silence, male!
443
00:46:35,429 --> 00:46:39,350
You will all suffer the same fate
as Odin's last spy.
444
00:46:45,106 --> 00:46:48,860
Do you honestly believe
the prince of Asgard is here to spy?
445
00:46:53,948 --> 00:46:57,034
What I believe is that you have come
to exert your dominance
446
00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,787
over the female who fled your embrace.
447
00:47:00,079 --> 00:47:02,874
I came for horses. That's all.
448
00:47:02,957 --> 00:47:05,793
Please release us.
We must return to Asgard.
449
00:47:06,002 --> 00:47:08,838
You mean, escape to Asgard.
450
00:47:09,297 --> 00:47:10,840
I know of your thievery.
451
00:47:11,132 --> 00:47:13,634
How you wish to deliver
the fire sword to Odin
452
00:47:13,759 --> 00:47:17,597
so that he can further subjugate those
who might rise against him.
453
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:21,225
I am all that keeps that weapon
from falling into the wrong hands!
454
00:47:21,517 --> 00:47:24,395
Who are you to judge a hand's worthiness?
455
00:47:25,229 --> 00:47:28,483
Perhaps its rightful place is in mine.
456
00:47:32,570 --> 00:47:34,572
Attention, wenches!
457
00:47:34,864 --> 00:47:37,450
You will release your prisoners now.
458
00:47:51,255 --> 00:47:56,260
Loki, your brother currently enjoys
his final breaths of life
459
00:47:56,844 --> 00:47:59,472
unless you sheath that weapon.
460
00:48:00,515 --> 00:48:04,352
Loki, do it.
The fire sword must not be used again.
461
00:48:06,771 --> 00:48:08,314
Hand it to me.
462
00:48:22,745 --> 00:48:24,455
Prepare them for execution.
463
00:48:24,539 --> 00:48:25,540
No!
464
00:48:25,873 --> 00:48:29,126
Hold your tongue, Sif, or you will join them.
465
00:48:30,336 --> 00:48:32,213
What manner of witchery is this?
466
00:48:32,797 --> 00:48:33,923
Frost Giants!
467
00:48:38,928 --> 00:48:41,639
Slay them all and recover the sword!
468
00:49:05,955 --> 00:49:07,665
Hello? Anyone?
469
00:49:07,790 --> 00:49:10,209
Someone get us down!
470
00:49:23,181 --> 00:49:24,140
Hey!
471
00:49:56,464 --> 00:50:00,009
Murderer. Now you die!
472
00:50:30,623 --> 00:50:33,084
Now, quickly, help me get these fangs.
473
00:50:57,817 --> 00:50:59,485
Give them no quarter, lads!
474
00:50:59,902 --> 00:51:01,028
Stop.
475
00:51:02,405 --> 00:51:03,364
But the giants!
476
00:51:03,739 --> 00:51:07,618
It's just like men to assume
we need their protection.
477
00:51:07,702 --> 00:51:08,953
Take this and go.
478
00:51:10,079 --> 00:51:13,875
Sif, provide them with horses
and escort them back to Asgard.
479
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:15,334
Yes, my lady.
480
00:51:15,543 --> 00:51:16,836
And, Sif,
481
00:51:17,753 --> 00:51:21,048
only return to us when you are truly ready.
482
00:51:47,867 --> 00:51:50,411
Why does nothing grow in this place?
483
00:51:50,536 --> 00:51:53,623
It was a final gift from King Thrym.
484
00:51:53,956 --> 00:51:57,293
But I thought your war with the Frost Giants
ended in Jötunheim.
485
00:51:57,460 --> 00:52:01,714
The war ended there, but the killing did not.
486
00:52:02,256 --> 00:52:05,301
They set glaciers in motion across the land,
487
00:52:05,551 --> 00:52:08,679
grinding away any hope
that life might ever return here.
488
00:52:09,222 --> 00:52:14,811
Counselor, I realize this is difficult,
but we've been charged with a mission.
489
00:52:17,104 --> 00:52:19,398
Of course. Forgive me.
490
00:52:20,399 --> 00:52:23,778
The children cannot cross this dead world
without water,
491
00:52:23,903 --> 00:52:26,113
and the only source of it lies just ahead.
492
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:29,784
If they're here, that's where we'll find them.
493
00:52:45,466 --> 00:52:47,051
Search the area.
494
00:52:56,769 --> 00:52:59,188
Ander, you're slipping.
495
00:53:00,481 --> 00:53:03,943
Your Highness, rest assured.
It won't happen again.
496
00:53:04,402 --> 00:53:08,406
And to think the four of us didn't qualify
to train with the Einherjar.
497
00:53:10,825 --> 00:53:13,369
Thor, Loki, it's good to see you.
498
00:53:13,661 --> 00:53:17,456
Algrim, never have I seen a friendlier face.
499
00:53:17,540 --> 00:53:19,292
How did you know to come for us here?
500
00:53:19,500 --> 00:53:21,502
From the Frost Giants.
501
00:53:21,627 --> 00:53:24,839
They have amassed in Asgard
and threaten war.
502
00:53:25,256 --> 00:53:28,384
They... You mean, because of me.
503
00:53:28,885 --> 00:53:32,471
It was an accident, Algrim.
There was no malice intended.
504
00:53:32,889 --> 00:53:36,267
Malice or not, they now demand the sword
as recompense.
505
00:53:40,855 --> 00:53:45,735
No, this weapon is a seeker of death!
We cannot just hand it over!
506
00:53:46,152 --> 00:53:49,947
Your father agrees with you.
That's why he sent us.
507
00:53:50,031 --> 00:53:54,076
Thor, you've carried
this burden long enough.
508
00:53:54,202 --> 00:53:55,953
Allow me to take it from you.
509
00:53:56,329 --> 00:53:59,624
Gladly. It is pure evil.
510
00:54:08,049 --> 00:54:11,552
No. It is the Frost Giants who are evil.
511
00:54:12,220 --> 00:54:17,141
The pain, the persecution, the enslavement.
512
00:54:17,266 --> 00:54:20,895
The eternal suffering
they caused my people.
513
00:54:21,020 --> 00:54:23,481
There was no end to their cruelty.
514
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:25,399
Algrim?
515
00:54:25,525 --> 00:54:29,403
And though this weapon
has caused you much grief,
516
00:54:29,529 --> 00:54:32,949
there was a time when it offered great hope.
517
00:54:33,074 --> 00:54:35,034
A promise of freedom.
518
00:54:35,326 --> 00:54:39,330
This place haunts you, Algrim. We must go.
519
00:54:39,580 --> 00:54:43,626
Did Odin ever tell you that
we came to him first?
520
00:54:43,751 --> 00:54:48,005
That we asked for help
in our war against the Frost Giants?
521
00:54:48,089 --> 00:54:49,674
But he refused!
522
00:54:49,924 --> 00:54:55,096
We were forced to turn to
Surtur and this sword for our very survival.
523
00:54:55,680 --> 00:55:00,101
Only then did your father join the war.
Against us!
524
00:55:02,061 --> 00:55:06,274
He struck Surtur down
and sealed the fate of my people!
525
00:55:06,524 --> 00:55:07,483
Algrim!
526
00:55:07,608 --> 00:55:10,736
Now I understand why I was spared.
527
00:55:11,612 --> 00:55:15,658
To avenge the dark elves.
To deliver judgment!
528
00:55:19,287 --> 00:55:20,288
No!
529
00:55:52,403 --> 00:55:57,950
If you return home,
I'll bury you in the ashes of Asgard!
530
00:56:08,836 --> 00:56:10,296
What do we do?
531
00:56:18,638 --> 00:56:22,558
We track down the horses
and then find a way to stop him.
532
00:56:47,792 --> 00:56:49,502
Odin's dark elf.
533
00:56:50,795 --> 00:56:52,421
He carries Elderstahl.
534
00:56:53,422 --> 00:56:55,591
We should seize it now
before he reaches safety.
535
00:56:55,925 --> 00:56:58,845
I gave Odin until sunrise.
536
00:56:59,095 --> 00:57:00,513
We will wait.
537
00:57:10,481 --> 00:57:11,649
Algrim.
538
00:57:16,904 --> 00:57:18,865
Here, Sire!
539
00:57:29,917 --> 00:57:30,877
Why?
540
00:57:32,461 --> 00:57:35,381
You more than anyone should know why.
541
00:57:35,590 --> 00:57:39,302
You still hold me responsible
for the fate of your race?
542
00:57:48,019 --> 00:57:50,563
You could have defeated the Frost Giants!
543
00:57:50,771 --> 00:57:54,609
No. That war could not have been won,
544
00:57:54,817 --> 00:57:58,488
even if I had sacrificed every life in Asgard.
545
00:57:59,113 --> 00:58:00,198
You lie!
546
00:58:16,172 --> 00:58:18,090
We found a way to win!
547
00:58:19,300 --> 00:58:23,930
Surtur. He was no savior. He was a demon!
548
00:58:24,263 --> 00:58:28,601
He aligned himself
with you only to conquer Jötunheim.
549
00:58:28,726 --> 00:58:31,270
But he would not have stopped there.
550
00:58:49,622 --> 00:58:54,085
By bringing him into your fight,
you risked all the nine realms.
551
00:58:54,377 --> 00:58:57,421
Easy to say when your people still live!
552
00:59:20,528 --> 00:59:24,699
The sun rises, Father,
and Odin still possesses Elderstahl.
553
00:59:31,539 --> 00:59:32,707
Begin.
554
00:59:41,090 --> 00:59:43,050
Return fire!
555
00:59:45,469 --> 00:59:46,929
Release!
556
01:00:23,508 --> 01:00:24,550
We're too late.
557
01:00:31,015 --> 01:00:33,893
Sif, Warriors Three,
you must help hold the line.
558
01:00:34,227 --> 01:00:36,187
Loki and I will save our father.
559
01:01:05,007 --> 01:01:08,177
Be honest. You can fight, can't you?
560
01:01:08,261 --> 01:01:10,555
Of course.
Have we never told you of the time...
561
01:01:10,638 --> 01:01:13,391
Can you fight?
562
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,644
Yes, if we must.
563
01:01:34,036 --> 01:01:37,915
Algrim, you will gain nothing from this.
564
01:01:41,169 --> 01:01:45,631
It's enough that
the war you avoided is upon you,
565
01:01:45,756 --> 01:01:51,762
and these walls which you protected
at the cost of my people will crumble!
566
01:02:04,609 --> 01:02:07,820
That sword has taken its last life, Algrim.
567
01:02:08,112 --> 01:02:12,492
Not as long as
the House of Odin still stands.
568
01:02:16,621 --> 01:02:17,997
Father.
569
01:02:19,415 --> 01:02:22,335
Please, please, hold on.
570
01:03:41,873 --> 01:03:44,500
I cannot forgive this betrayal, Algrim.
571
01:03:49,839 --> 01:03:53,759
But I cannot forget
the many years you were my friend
572
01:03:54,051 --> 01:03:55,803
and my family.
573
01:03:57,138 --> 01:03:59,390
Monster!
574
01:04:19,410 --> 01:04:21,120
Brother, it's all right.
575
01:04:21,704 --> 01:04:23,331
It's all right.
576
01:04:37,428 --> 01:04:39,138
Stay with Father.
577
01:05:04,330 --> 01:05:07,333
Your Eminence, I am Thor, son of Odin.
578
01:05:08,793 --> 01:05:10,753
I humbly return Elderstahl to you
579
01:05:10,837 --> 01:05:14,757
and offer myself as your prisoner
in hopes of ending this conflict.
580
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:23,850
Kill him.
581
01:05:26,811 --> 01:05:27,979
Wait.
582
01:05:28,229 --> 01:05:29,522
Where is Odin?
583
01:05:29,939 --> 01:05:33,985
Algrim, the dark elf, betrayed us.
My father lies dying.
584
01:05:34,527 --> 01:05:35,653
And the dark elf?
585
01:05:36,112 --> 01:05:38,781
He is dead, slain by my brother.
586
01:05:42,493 --> 01:05:45,872
I warned your father against
giving him sanctuary.
587
01:05:50,668 --> 01:05:53,171
There are many who seek this weapon,
588
01:05:53,296 --> 01:05:57,717
for with it, even the weak can
rise up against Jötunheim.
589
01:05:58,593 --> 01:06:00,553
So I accept your peace offering.
590
01:06:02,430 --> 01:06:04,557
The war ends.
591
01:06:06,476 --> 01:06:10,521
Father, we are on the cusp of victory.
592
01:06:11,564 --> 01:06:15,234
Do not underestimate
the might of this kingdom, Geirmarr.
593
01:06:16,027 --> 01:06:19,489
Besides, we have what we came for.
594
01:06:22,909 --> 01:06:24,243
And what of my fate?
595
01:06:27,413 --> 01:06:30,208
Two Jštuns died by your hand.
596
01:06:34,295 --> 01:06:39,091
But you have saved countless others
by returning this weapon to us.
597
01:06:42,094 --> 01:06:46,849
Now go. Tend to your father, son of Odin.
598
01:07:20,049 --> 01:07:21,384
Loki.
599
01:07:27,223 --> 01:07:29,350
You've been hiding in this temple
long enough.
600
01:07:31,352 --> 01:07:34,397
I'm not hiding. I like it here.
601
01:07:36,816 --> 01:07:38,860
I know you lament your actions,
602
01:07:39,318 --> 01:07:42,446
but you did what you thought was right
to save us.
603
01:07:42,530 --> 01:07:45,449
No, I sought vengeance.
604
01:07:47,994 --> 01:07:50,496
Thor, I am convinced that,
605
01:07:50,580 --> 01:07:53,374
in Algrim's place,
I would have acted no differently.
606
01:07:54,917 --> 01:07:58,421
Who of us knows what we're capable of
when family is threatened?
607
01:07:59,839 --> 01:08:03,509
Hopefully, we'll never again be
faced with such choices.
608
01:08:04,510 --> 01:08:07,680
I'm going to see Father. Will you join me?
609
01:08:08,473 --> 01:08:10,183
I will.
610
01:08:11,517 --> 01:08:12,643
Later.
611
01:08:23,196 --> 01:08:25,281
Are you up for a visitor?
612
01:08:25,364 --> 01:08:27,074
Of course. Come in.
613
01:08:30,077 --> 01:08:31,245
How is your brother?
614
01:08:31,662 --> 01:08:32,663
He'll be fine.
615
01:08:33,372 --> 01:08:34,540
And you?
616
01:08:35,291 --> 01:08:36,542
I will be fine, as well.
617
01:08:37,585 --> 01:08:39,670
I imagine much is on your mind.
618
01:08:40,213 --> 01:08:42,798
Father, I should have listened to you.
619
01:08:43,841 --> 01:08:46,302
I was just so eager to prove myself.
620
01:08:46,886 --> 01:08:48,679
And I should have listened to you.
621
01:08:49,305 --> 01:08:50,306
Why?
622
01:08:51,057 --> 01:08:54,811
You came to me as a man,
seeking to test your mettle.
623
01:08:55,728 --> 01:08:57,688
I saw only a boy.
624
01:08:57,814 --> 01:08:59,065
Because I was.
625
01:08:59,565 --> 01:09:02,819
Father, due to my heedless actions,
I ignited a war.
626
01:09:02,902 --> 01:09:08,074
Yes, you did,
and you saw what little it takes.
627
01:09:08,866 --> 01:09:11,369
But then you also saw the value of peace,
628
01:09:11,577 --> 01:09:15,540
even when its cost can be so very great.
629
01:09:16,666 --> 01:09:19,001
Such wisdom took me ages to learn.
630
01:09:19,836 --> 01:09:24,549
Son, never has the House of Odin
stood on firmer ground
631
01:09:24,757 --> 01:09:26,175
or been more revered.
632
01:09:26,843 --> 01:09:28,803
You have done this kingdom proud.
633
01:09:36,644 --> 01:09:39,939
We hadn't even gotten to Jötunheim
when our troubles began.
634
01:09:40,064 --> 01:09:42,942
Stopping for a little repast
at an outland pub,
635
01:09:43,192 --> 01:09:49,448
we found ourselves surrounded by
the most vile beasts of all the nine realms.
636
01:09:50,449 --> 01:09:51,742
White bears?
637
01:09:51,826 --> 01:09:53,161
Wolves, love.
638
01:09:53,327 --> 01:09:58,833
These fiends eat white bears for breakfast,
as do I.
639
01:09:59,834 --> 01:10:01,210
How many were after you?
640
01:10:02,044 --> 01:10:03,546
- Seven.
- Ten.
641
01:10:03,629 --> 01:10:05,006
Thirty-four.
642
01:10:08,176 --> 01:10:11,679
Lads, have I caught you
filling their ears with lies again?
643
01:10:12,180 --> 01:10:15,183
Well, it was the dead of night after all.
644
01:10:15,308 --> 01:10:17,560
With nary a torch lit.
645
01:10:18,060 --> 01:10:20,480
Because I'm certain I counted at least 50.
646
01:10:21,814 --> 01:10:27,695
He's right. Fifty. Fortunately,
I knew the art of disemboweling.
647
01:10:27,862 --> 01:10:31,741
They attacked with matted fur
and dripping fangs,
648
01:10:31,824 --> 01:10:34,702
intent on feasting on Asgardian meat!
649
01:10:34,827 --> 01:10:37,788
So, naturally, they went after Volstagg first.
650
01:10:46,464 --> 01:10:49,509
I understand your father
continues to gain his strength.
651
01:10:49,634 --> 01:10:52,345
He does, with new scars added to old.
652
01:10:52,637 --> 01:10:54,931
Good. I am happy to hear that.
653
01:10:56,390 --> 01:11:00,353
And what's this I hear about you being
recruited to train with the new Einherjar?
654
01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:02,855
As if you didn't have
anything to do with that.
655
01:11:03,231 --> 01:11:07,235
No, you've proven your worth.
Your acceptance was your doing.
656
01:11:08,277 --> 01:11:10,696
Although, I am pleased
it's no longer a mere maiden
657
01:11:10,822 --> 01:11:12,824
that bested me with a barn tool.
658
01:11:13,115 --> 01:11:14,575
Care for a rematch?
659
01:11:14,826 --> 01:11:16,202
Absolutely.
