[ In Arabic ]:
You must send in more troops.

2
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,640
Sound the retreat!

3
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,040
Sound the retreat!

4
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,560
Sound the retreat!

5
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,680
Sound the retreat!

[ In Swedish ]: Cecilia Blanka,
I am here to fetch you.

7
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,560
Knut Eriksson has taken the throne.

8
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,720
I am to take you to the Royal Castle.
You are to be Queen.

9
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,840
Birger Brosa?

10
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,320
Thank you for taking care
of my little boy.

11
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,840
His name is Magnus,
and he's almost a man now.

12
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,520
What does he look like?

13
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,240
What does he like to do?
Does he ride?

14
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,600
Yes, he rides.

15
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,720
-Does he know?
-No.

16
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,760
No, I did not wish
to saddle him with shame.

17
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,080
Cecilia, come here.

18
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,400
Cecilia, he'll be back.

19
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:27,800
He'll be back.

20
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,120
Cecilia.

21
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,200
[ In Swedish ]:
The Lord has brought you

22
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,400
so that you may forgive me.

23
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,280
What am I to forgive, Mother?

24
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,000
My sins...

25
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,560
My sins against you.

26
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:59,280
I wished to crush the happiness
you and Arn Magnusson shared.

27
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:18,760
I tried to punish you
because I never had love.

28
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,200
You are a good woman, Cecilia.

29
00:08:42,560 --> 00:08:48,040
Kind-hearted and forgiving.

30
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:56,120
Your prayers might shorten
my time in Purgatory.

31
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,720
Can you forgive me?

32
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,000
Can you forgive me?

33
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,800
Only God can forgive you.

34
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,080
I curse you, Cecilia Algotsdotter!

35
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:24,040
I curse you
and Arn Magnusson both!

36
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,960
ERLAND: [ In Swedish ]:
My condolences on the loss

37
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,920
of your dear Mother Rikissa.

38
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:20,240
But even in times of sorrow
we need to look ahead.

39
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:27,160
The new King's advisor, Brosa,
put in a good word for you.

40
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:33,280
I have every reason
to trust his judgment.

41
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:39,120
We would like a new,
young abbess in our convent,

42
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,680
and now we have
a vacant position, so to speak.

43
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,840
Abbess of Gudhem,
how do you like the sound of that?

44
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,760
Your own convent?

45
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,280
Thank you, your Grace.
It is a very fine offer.

46
00:12:05,560 --> 00:12:09,600
But I neither can nor wish
to take any vows.

47
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,080
No?

48
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,760
My time of penance is almost over.

49
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,000
I have had my punishment.

50
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,000
At the next full moon,
I will leave Gudhem Abbey

51
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,400
and go to the Queen,

52
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,920
to await my betrothed
at the castle.

53
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:27,600
Tell Brosa that.

54
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:37,640
[ In Arabic ]:
Master,

55
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,600
the Knights Templar
will break camp at dawn.

56
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,200
They have gathered a great army
south of the Horns of Hattin.

57
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,240
SALADlN:
They plan to meet us in the desert.

58
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,080
Fools. They are doomed to perish.

59
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,320
After a great defeat
comes a great victory.

00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,360
BROSA [ In Swedish ]:
You're not bringing much with you

61
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:10,520

00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,000
Cecilia Algotsdotter.

63
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,600
The King and Queen await you
at the Royal Castle.

64
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,320
And I've sent Magnus there, as well.

65
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:30,680
So, now he knows?

66
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,160
Yes, now he knows.

67
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:59,160
BROSA: I heard you declined
the Bishop's offer.

68
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,520
I understand if you need time.

69
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,680
I've had all the time I need.

70
00:22:34,120 --> 00:22:36,040
Blanka!

71
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,120
I'm so pleased to see you!

72
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,480
It's good to meet you at last, Cecilia.

73
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,120
King Knut.

74
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,200
-This is for you.
-Thank you.

75
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,000
Magnus.

76
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,440
Mother?

77
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,880
Magnus, don't just stand
out here in the rain.

78
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,320
You must have wondered.

79
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:02,600
Your father...

80
00:24:05,360 --> 00:24:07,240
Your father and l...

81
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:08,560
I know.

82
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:11,920
You don't have to...

83
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,640
Brosa says he's dead.

84
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,960
Brosa knows nothing.

85
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,920
He's alive.

86
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,080
He's alive in my prayers.

87
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,680
In mine, too.

00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:22,040
[ In Arabic ]: The defeated
salutes you, victorious King.

00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:28,480
Greetings,
my most worthy opponent.

90
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,240
Take a seat.

91
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,800
[ In Swedish ]:
My name is Ebbe Sunesson.

92
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,080
I bring tidings of friendship
from the Sverker clan.

93
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,880
Mark my words: we must act
before the Sverker clan does.

94
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,760
It's just a matter of time
before they lay claim to the throne.

95
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,240
Let them come.

96
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:08,920
We're not strong enough right now.

97
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,800
Pray tell, who is the Queen's friend?

98
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,840
I am Cecilia Algotsdotter.

99
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,840
She's been a lay sister
at Gudhem Abbey.

100
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,200
A nun?

101
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,640
She doesn't look like a nun.

102
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,000
That's my mother
you're talking about.

103
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,320
Is that so, boy?
And where is your father?

104
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,360
He's a Knight Templar
in the Holy Land.

105
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,560
Then you have my condolences.

106
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,800
What do you mean?

107
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,520
Jerusalem has fallen.

108
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:58,000
The Knights Templar
were slaughtered like dogs.

109
00:30:58,120 --> 00:30:59,120
All of them.

110
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,000
Every last one.

111
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,000
You lie!

112
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:21,480
I may sin from time to time,
but I never lie.

113
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,560
If you can defeat me,
you may call me what you like.

114
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,520
Magnus. Magnus, calm down.

00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,560
BROSA:
Let's be sensible.

Our families

We have all lost kinsmen.

118
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,440
I don't think any of us
wants more bloodshed.

119

No, but we would like you
to reconcile with the Sverker clan.

120
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,040
If you expect me
to turn over the crown,

121
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,680
you are sorely mistaken.

122
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,480
If Sverker Karlsson
wanted the crown,

123
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,680
he would have taken it away
from you long ago.

124
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:42,480
No!

125
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,040
Is the King unwell?

126
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:04,440
Well, he'd be in better shape
with less beer in him.

127
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,240
This is best for everyone.

128
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,880
BLANKA:
Don't go back to the convent.

129
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:44,040
We will always be friends,
even if I wear a habit and a cross.

130
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,840
But I can't stay.

131
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,520
I must devote my life to something.

132
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,840
The convent is the only life I know.

133
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,080
Welcome back.

It is you!

It is you!

138
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,320
Mother.

139
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,120
Have we changed so much?

140
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,200
Our souls are unchanged.

141
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:27,520
You are the Cecilia I remember.

The famous Knight Templar!

Or are you a farmer?

146
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:26,520
What a sweet home you've built
for you and your pretty wife.

147
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,040
I suggest you deliver
any message you may have

148
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:32,880
immediately,
without dismounting.

149
00:39:35,720 --> 00:39:38,000
Watch over her.

150
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,000
The woods round here
are not as safe as they were.

151
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,200
Especially now as your King Knut
lies on his deathbed.

152
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,520
He won't be able
to hold the throne much longer.

153
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:14,600
How much time does he have?

154
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,400
I'm not sure,

155
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:22,640
but he's passing blood in his stool,
and that's never a good sign.

156
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,000
The Sverkers have made
Ebbe Sunesson their commander.

157
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,560
And he has the Danish King
behind him,

158
00:40:32,720 --> 00:40:34,800
as well as the Danish army.

159
00:40:37,720 --> 00:40:40,600
We aren't ready
to meet the Danes in battle.

160
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,480
There's only one solution.

161
00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:46,400
What did you say?

162
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,240
I said there is only one solution.

ARN:
One, two, three.

164
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:00,640
Good!

165
00:41:00,720 --> 00:41:03,560
Five, six.

166
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:05,400
One, two...

167
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,400
ARN, VOlCE-OVER:
I have seen so much evil.

168
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,080
So much death.

169
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:40,720
I prayed to God
never to see war again.

170
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:45,160
But if the Sverker King
draws his sword,

171
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:46,640
war will be upon us.

ARN:
Sverker has declared war.

His forces will soon be here.

178
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,560
It will take more than courage
to defeat them.

179
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,600
But I swear to you,
we will be ready.

180
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,080
God be with you, Magnus.

181
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,320
I know you will return.

182
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,040
Everything's ready.

183
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:34,680
I don't know.
Our men are fearful.

184
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,120
Listen to me!

185
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,240
Cast aside all doubt.

186
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,840
Believe!

187
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:07,840
Believe in our victory.

188
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,840
We chose this place.

189
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,920
Not the Danes
and not the Sverkers.

190
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:17,040
We chose this time.

191
00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:20,680
Not the Danes
and not the Sverkers.

192
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,000
Believe.

193
00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:30,720
God stands by those
who are strong in faith.

194
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,640
That is why we shall win
and peace shall reign.

195
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:51,480
Horsemen! Forward!

196
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:35,360
They're trying to scare us!

197
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:45,960
Prepare!

198
00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,080
Charge.

199
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:56,680
Ready!

200
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:04,640
Wait...

201
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:31,080
Now!

202
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,560
It's a trap!

203
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:51,080
Now!

204
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:04,720
Prepare again!

205
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:07,080
Charge!

206
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,640
Charge!

207
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:29,960
Now!

208
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,400
Charge!

209
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:56,600
For Norway!

210
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,400
Now ride off!

211
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:03,040
I will never leave you again.

212
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:13,920
You're hurt?!

213
00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:24,080
Arn? Arn!

214
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:11,960
The Virgin Mother
never abandoned us.

215
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:20,520
I love you.

216
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:24,560
I love you.
