:30:02
A thane whose entire fortune
consists of two gold pieces...
:30:07
...must believe in the offer
of a bell of solid gold.
:30:12
- Solid gold?
- Solid gold.
:30:15
As tall as three tall men.
:30:19
- Three tall men?
- Yes.
:30:22
I swear to you by all the gods,
I'm telling the truth.
:30:26
Don't swear by the gods.
They have deserted me.
:30:29
But I know the bell exists.
I can get it for you. All I need is a ship.
:30:35
But how can a thane with only two gold
pieces find or even equip another ship?
:30:41
I can arrange all that.
:30:43
- Because of you, I have nothing left.
- Yes, you do.
:30:46
You do have something.
:30:51
- You have the finest ship in the North.
- Not that ship! That's the king's ship!
:30:57
It's your ship.
It was built by your men.
:31:00
- It's King Harald's ship!
- He practically stole it!
:31:03
But he paid for it.
:31:05
Harald cheated you.
It's still your ship.
:31:08
He speaks the truth.
:31:12
But what about a crew?
:31:15
Getting a crew will be no problem.
:31:18
One whisper of a golden bell
and you could fill 100 ships.
:31:22
- Right.
- They may not be as credulous as I am.
:31:25
Now, you just leave the crew to us.
:31:28
- And the king?
- And leave him to us.
:31:30
- He'll hang me.
- He won't hang you. He'll hang no one.
:31:34
He'll harm no one.
:31:36
We'll take a hostage...
:31:44
The forward stay is slack. Tighten it.
:31:49
- Check those barrels.
- Good evening, shipmaster.
:31:53
What do you want?
:31:54
- King Harald ordered us to bring you ale.
- King Harald?
:31:58
Just to whet your whistles
before you sail.
