While we have them to thank for a few things that made them a bit more civilized for being "heathenous savages" (*coughGROOMINGcoughcough*) I don't think they would have really known something like that. Or if they did it would have been a lot more in a crude fashion than that. I am a little gleeful at this anime because HI SCA NERD, and after visiting Norway, Sweden, Denmark.

Vic Boss 612 Posted December 30, 2019 24/Finale Reveal hidden contents - Sweyn trolling the shit out Askeladd by bringing up Wales, looking for signs of weakness - Calls him on it, oh shit - He won't back down when it comes to Wales, even if it fucks up everything - It's not worth the cost to conquer Wales, and some of the people are sighing in relief because they didn't want to say it out loud too - And now Sweyn's showing that he approves of Askeladd's actions, god damn the sneaky bullshit going on here :shiny: - "Wales or Canute, choose one." HOLY SHIT - "The only merchandise Wales produces is slaves" Askeladd's fucking kill-you eyes - Thorfinn gone just like that - Shit-talking Sweyn to his fucking face, in front of everyone :shiny: - "Don't push your luck, you savage." - Lucius Artortius Castus - HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT - And now he's taking as many fucking Danes as he can with him - He's putting on an act, but it's also what he's always wanted to do - FLOKI ENTERS THE FRAY - "You killed the King!" "What are you talking about? I'm here, alive and well." :shiny: - Canute just stole Thorfinn's kill ? - "Just hurry up and do it."

Tassifox 418 Posted December 30, 2019 Reveal hidden contents Shouldn't talk shit about his mama. Poor Canute having to follow through with Askeladd's plan Whelp I guess his first stab is gotta count somehow Askeladd dropping the big question on Thorfinn. Yup gonna strike the prince since he stole his revenge That's an interesting way to lead into a possible season 2. ISO Share this post Link to post
