Thorfinn spent his childhood in icy Iceland, captivated by tales of Vinland, a mythical land of peace and abundance far beyond the sea. His father, a warrior with a gentle philosophy, taught him that no one deserves to be an enemy—yet Thorfinn’s reality is steeped in violence. Now a hardened mercenary, he fights in the brutal conflict between the Danes and the English, his heart consumed by vengeance. The war rages on, fueled by Viking mercenaries who thrive on chaos and bloodshed. Among them, Thorfinn stalks Askeladd, the cunning warrior who took his father’s life. In this unforgiving world, where battle is the only certainty, Thorfinn clings to his quest for retribution. Yet beneath his rage, echoes of his father’s words linger, challenging his belief that war is the only path. The dream of Vinland, a land without strife, feels impossibly distant—but perhaps not entirely lost. Edit Translation

Prepare for tears, gore, amazing action scenes, and great storytelling!
This journey is brutal, heartwrenching, as it is inspiring and heartwarming. It truly deep dives into the Viking world to give you various enlightening perspectives. Full of great characters, world building, and a story arc you won't be able to see coming until it is upon you!This kid, Thorfin, will steal into your heart faster than you expect, and you will love him like he is your own son/brother!
The journey is long. Once the action kicks in, it stays consistent for most of s1. Ending on a cliff hanger but s2 is already here to show you the next phase of Thorfin's journey. My heart breaks for the kid who has seen too much too young, and had to endure hell just to survive. The young man he becomes is truly worthwhile to see in s2 though! The people he meets as he goes have great character development too. You will find he way he reshapes the world around him just by existing in it, truly is done so well. The best of all, the character development of Thorfin himself, is stupendous, bring tissues for the ride.
