[suspenseful drum music]
- [Narrator] On the edge of an ancient land,
across rolling hills and rocky cliffs,
along the shores of two seas lay
the principality of Tmutarakan.
It was the time when the mighty Scythians
succumbed to the ravages of history.
When the last of their people disappeared,
along with their ancient gods and many heroes.
It was the time for new battles and the glory of heroes,
those brave at heart and strong in spirit.
And now the time had come for new legends.
[thunder cracking]
[rhythmic music]
Last year, I drank some excellent wine
and it was here in this tavern.
The swill that we make is far from excellent,
but we sure are famous for it.
[both laughing]
So what's your name?
You can call me anything,
as long as you're a paying customer.
And where's Kudim?
Who?
The owner of this tavern.
He was murdered.
Why is that?
He watered down the wine and cheated customers,
and then he got caught fornicating
with a woman who was the wife of a local merchant.
Are you sure she wasn't your wife?
[both laughing]
- Watch yourself.
[rhythmic music]
[chicken bocking]
[suspenseful music] [thunder cracking]
[rhythmic music]
- Let's roast this duck to take with us?
Hey, master?
[dramatic music]
[grunting]
- No wait!
Your turn.

[horses neighing]
[birds squawking]
- Were they the ones who maimed you?
- No, it wasn't.
Some other Polovtsians attacked me
on my way to Konchak.
- And I was supposed to go instead of you.
- Then, Tatiana would've been mine.
- You think life with her is sweet?
If only I'd known how stubborn she was
and I will say you wouldn't have lasted, not even a week.
[chuckling]
[tense music]
- We're honored to see you and your son,
Lord Oleg, at the border to welcome us.
[tense music]
- Lord Vladimir is offering me to take Chernigov.
I see he's giving his neighbor
what he couldn't manage himself, but I am not offended.
I will take it.
Was he too busy to pay me a visit?
[chuckles]
Then you, noblemen, are my guests.
- Today they're his guests, tomorrow subjects,
if it's one thing I know,
Oleg wants Kiev for himself.
[suspenseful music] [birds squawking]
[dramatic metal music]
- [Warrior] Get cover, we're under attack.
[dramatic music]
[grunting] [swords clinking]
[horses neighing]
[grunting]
[suspenseful music]
[birds calling in distance]
- That's him.
- You should've captured him.
- Yes but he killed himself.
I was too late, Lord.
- But you saved my life.
- It's my duty, my Lord.
- Hey Master, Lutobor!
My master, it's your wife, she's giving birth!
It's a future warrior!
- Go to her, Lutobor.
[bright music]
- No, no, Master, you can't go in!
Not yet, you have to wait here!
No sir, you have to wait here.
No please.
- [Prov] Be patient now, be patient.
Your lady will deliver very soon.
Every new life begins with suffering.
- Since when are you so wise?
- [laughs] When my wife was giving birth
to our sixth child I got drunk so I would suffer less
and it worked.
Everything will be fine.
[Tatiana screaming]
[baby crying]
[suspenseful music]
- [Lutobor] So, a son?
- Wouldn't you love your daughter?
- Oh no, I wouldn't.
How dare she be born before my son?
Give me.
- Look here, you do have a son, Master.
[baby crying]
[peaceful music]
[Lutobor laughing]
[bagpipes playing]
- [Gur] Lord Oleg is here!
[trumpet blaring]
He's here!
Lord Oleg's here!
He's arrived.
[trumpet blaring]
[bagpipes playing]
[bright rhythmic music]
- So, you have a son now?
- Yes, my Lord.
- Will you name me the godfather
or do you have another choice?
- Are you joking?
I would never have dared to ask.
- Let's see him, let's see him.
- Tatiana!
[bright music]
[peaceful music]
[bright music] - Oh.
Look at you.
Look at that, he looks just like you.
[both laughing]
In a year's time, I want a grandson just like him.
[bright music]
Lutobor, now this sword is yours
until your son is old enough to hold it.
- [Lutobor] It's an honor, Lord.
- You have earned it, Lutobor.
Show us your swordsmanship.
- This sword is beyond praise, Lord.
[rhythmic music]
[grunting]
[crowd cheering]
[Kumai laughing]
- Are you any good in real battle?
- Want to test my bravery, Polovtsian?
- Are you scared?
- I don't want to contaminate this soil with all your blood.
- [Lord] No swords. But instead, you can wrestle.
Don't hurt the Khan's son too much.
They're my allies nowadays.
[bright rhythmic music]
[grunting]
[Kumai laughing]
[grunting]
[crowd laughing]
[Kumai yelling]

[sword clinking]
- Enough!
[ominous music]
[woman screaming]
- When a blow is threatened, it's seldom given.
[laughing]
- [Kumai] Open the gate!
- Very good fight.
- [Lord] I know, but there could be a problem.
Well.
- Yes, my Lord.
- That was very good fighting, but you may have an enemy.
- No, we'll be fine.
The Polovtsian was asking for it.
- That may be true.
Well, I'm going.
- Won't you stay for the celebration, my Lord?
- I'd be happy to, but I have my princely duties to fulfill.
- Prov!
- [Prov] Safe travel, my Lord.
- Give me.
Feed the musicians and heat up some water
so I can wash the Polovtsian snot off.
- To your health, boys. - Oh yeah.
[crowd cheering]
- What is this?
Look at that, huh?
[ominous music]
- [Tatiana] Easy there, my warrior.
Save your caresses for later.
[gentle music]
- Is it stitched?
- You're good as new.
I'll seal it with a spell.
[gentle music]
[moaning] [lips smacking]
[baby crying in distance]
No, wait.
[rain pounding] [dog barking]
[gasping]
[baby crying continues in distance]
[Tatiana screaming]
Lutobor!
[Lutobor screams]
[Tatiana] Lutobor! [baby crying]
- [Yar] Hurry, we're going now.
[baby crying]
[grunting]
- [Warriors] In to war!
[grunting] [swords clinking]
[sword clinking]
[grunting]
- Hey over here. - They're over here.
- Come on. - Come quickly over here.
- This way. - Get him.
[grunting]
[tense music] [rain pounding]
[screaming]
- [Prov] The bastard's alive.
I've got him. - Can anybody help?
- Please over here!
- [Prov] What are we going to do with him?
- [Warrior] Over here, please!
- [Warrior] What's going on?
- [Warrior] Can anyone hear me?
- Lock him up!
- [Warrior] Somebody help.
- [Warrior] Does anyone know what happened?
What has just happened?
[rain pounding]
[suspenseful music]
[rhythmic music]
[men laughing]
- Pass them to me. - Oh yes.
- Over here. - It's so good.
- Yes. - Oh.
- That's part of me. - Pass them down here.
[rhythmic music]
[laughing]
- [Warrior] What? [laughing]
- Lutobor, my friend, I feel your pain.
We'll find them, I swear that we'll make them all pay.
- Invite you? - Quick,
quick pour me some more.
[laughing]
[suspenseful music]
[Warriors chattering]
- [Warrior] Ah, who cares, pour me another drink.
- [Warrior] Get me out of here.
- Very good, very good. - Cheers.
[laughing]
[moaning]
- [Lord] I just heard about what happened.
What are you going to do?
What do they want?
Ransom or something else?
[ominous music]
What do they want?
- [Lutobor] My wife and son...
in exchange for your life.
[sniffs]
- That is a high price.
And what did you choose?
- My duty to you, Lord.
- Thank you.
Hold on to the poison for now.
[bright bagpipe music]
Here's to my right-hand man Lutobor!
- Cheers. - Ah.
- [Crowd] Hey!
[gagging]
[ominous music]
- [Lord] It was him, he poisoned me!
[suspenseful music]
[sniffs]
- Poison, he has the poison!
[grunting]
[peaceful music]
[grunts]
- My husband's going to track you down!
- We were told not to touch you
but I wouldn't refuse if you got the desire.
[baby crying]
- [Warrior] Get over there.
[dramatic music]
[singing in foreign language]
- So where is Marten?
- He was killed by Lutobor.
- Truly convenient, seeing as Marten
was going to challenge you as the leader.
- I was chosen by Ares as the strongest of the Wolves.
I will lead the pack!
- Ares will decide that.
[grumbling]
[suspenseful music]
[groaning] [whip snapping]
[laughing]
[whip snapping]
[metal jingling] [vocalizing mockingly]
- Huh?
[scoffs]
[door creaking]
- But why, Lord?
I've been faithful to you.
- Yes, I know you've been.
But I want my enemies to think
that you were the one who poisoned me, Lutobor.
And I recognized the poison, it's powdered hemlock.
A person who takes it suffers for seven days
before they end up dying.
So now you have seven days to get your wife and son back,
and also to find the man who wanted me to die.
- Thank you, I will do it Lord.
- Don't thank me just yet.
Now you'll escape,
and then I will announce a reward for your head.
It's the only way, otherwise the enemies
will not believe that you poisoned me, will they?
Spare the executioner.
I still need his services.
[suspenseful music]
[grunting]
- Forgive me, my Lord, for not sparing his life.
[suspenseful music]
[Lutobor] Prov, Prov!
Prov, come here man.
- Master?
- Be quiet.
Where's the captive?
- He's in the shed.
I think he's a Wolf of Perun,
they're a gang of hired assassins.
- Bring me my sword and armor, and clothes,
and water for washing, and quickly!
[dogs barking]
- No wait.
- Do you want to live, Wolf?
- Yes I do, forgive me for God's sake, I've done you wrong.
Evil people took me in
and lured me into doing bad deeds for some gold.
I really only...
- Shut your mouth.
Help me get my family back and I'll free you.
- I'll help you, I swear to God, I'll get them.
[sword clinking]
- I know you don't believe in my God,
but you will take our oath.
You'll swear it at a shrine,
before the idol of your god. Well?
- I agree.
[dramatic music]
[crashing]
[horses neighing]
[grunting]
- Tell me, where is your master?
- I don't know where he is now.
I haven't seen him since he left for the Lord's palace.
[suspenseful music]
[groaning]
- [Marten] So where are you taking me now?
Is this an ancient temple?
A secret shrine?
[fire whooshing]
- Here's your god Perun.
Swear an oath before the idol.
[suspenseful music]
[Marten sighing]
- Perun, god of lightning,
I pledge before you to help
this Lutobor get his wife and his son back.
- And alive And well.
- And alive and well.
- [Guardian] [Laughing] But his oath has no value.
He does not pray to the gods.
- [Lutobor] Who are you, show yourself!
- He prays to a different god.
He is from an ancient tribe that has lost its greatness.
The last of them make a living by shedding the blood,
isn't that true, Wolf of Ares?
You are a Wolf.
Tell us, isn't that the truth?
That is true, and at home I do honor Ares,
but I have respected your god.
- [Lutobor] Tell me who are you?
- [Marten] He's Perun's Guardian, untie me.
- His people swear their oaths on a sword
that has been washed in human blood.
- Why believe you?
- Believe because I am the keeper of ancient knowledge.
- [Marten] He's blind.
- Oh, but is it you?
You are the one...
who is blind!
[whooshing]
[suspenseful music]
[whooshing]
- [Lutobor] Are you seeking death, Guardian?
- [Guardian] Oh, but it is you who found it.
[whooshing] [swords clinking]
[whooshing]
- [Marten] Kill him!
[grunting]
[swords slashing and clinking]
Calm down, he's dead.
Untie me?
[fire whooshing]
- Your people swear oaths on a sword washed in blood.
Give your word.
[suspenseful music]
- I give my word.
[peaceful music]
It's good to have your trust, I won't disappoint you.
[grunting]
[rumbling]
Marten.
- What?
- I said to call me Marten.
- Why didn't you strangle me, Marten?
- Because I honor Ares
and I wouldn't disgrace him before the god, Perun.
So I will keep my word.
[ominous music]
- [Servant] I wonder what it's like to have only one wife.
Don't you get bored?
- One is enough for God's servants.
Let me baptize you.
- No, a faith that prohibits concubines just isn't for me.
Also, how can a single god rule over all?
I mean all the mountains, and the forests,
and the thunderstorms?
- For you, it's about women, not thunderstorms.
[laughing]
I don't think that you have a chance of going to heaven,
mark my word.
[whistling]
[metal clinking]
- [Toryan] Lutobor?
- Maybe I am, but I don't remember your face.
- My name's Toryan, a merchant.
We met once before.
I heard some stories about you.
- What kind of stories?
- About your strength and bravery.
- And? Anything else?
- Lord Oleg's searching for you.
There's a big reward, a nice price for your head.
But I will not hand you over.
Your father said a word for me before the Lord once,
but I can't be sold or bought, either.
And not even for gold.
Though, for so much gold, a father would sell his own son.
- Could Toryan spare two horses?
- I don't have many, but I will give you two.
So you stay for the night, have some food, some rest.
I'll give you the horses tomorrow.
They need to rest well, too.
Tired horses won't take you too far.
- That's true, the horses are very tired.
- But don't tell anyone
I didn't hand you in for the reward.
People will think Toryan's gone mad
and won't do business with me any more.
Well, now my dear guests, enjoy our food.
Come on, eat.
[baby crying]
[suspenseful music]
[Tatiana screaming] [baby crying]
[grunting]
[Tatiana screaming] [clothing ripping]
[struggling] [baby crying]
[Tatiana whimpering] [baby crying]
- [Lutobor] Savage! You animal!
Why did you kill them?
They just sheltered us.
- The merchant's still alive.
- Lutobor, please spare my life.
- He was going to send a messenger to the Lord,
and he was going collect the reward.
- In the name of God, please don't kill me.
- What's your god's name?
Is it Dajbog, Perun or maybe Hors?
- I'm begging you in the name of Jesus.
The devil tempted me to be a greedy man.
[Marten laughing]
- The devil tempted him, then they sheltered us.
I think you aren't so good Lutobor, at judging people.
And so Toryan's honor cannot be bought or sold, can it?
Yeah?
[grunting]
- Harder, harder.
Harder.
You will be given to the man
who's the one who paid us to kidnap you.
[suspenseful music]
- Who is he?
- You'll find out when he comes to get you.
It will be you alone, without the child
and as for your little son,
he will either be sacrificed
or else trained to become a Wolf.
Our young boys start eating off a knife
as soon as they're weaned.
[ominous music]
The training is very tough.
Only one out of ten becomes a Wolf.
- And starts killing people for gold?
- Hm, we Wolves do not kill, but instead we hunt.
For otherwise, my people would perish.
- Well then I will pray for my son to avoid such a fate.
- Then pray, but in our land, your god is powerless.
[birds squawking]
- [Lutobor] You're not human, you're an animal.
- Yeah, I am an animal.
But when I'm not the hunter, I'm being hunted.
Now, we're both being hunted.
- What?
[arrow whooshing]
- Go on, go, go now.
- After them. - After them, go, go.
- Come on. - Go, go, go.
[arrows whooshing]
- Get them. - Get them.
- This way. [arrows whooshing]
- Hurry, hurry. - Go, go, go.
- Here, over here. - Go on faster.
- Come on. - Faster.
- Come on. - Get him.
[arrows whooshing]
- Get down. - Get him.
[horse neighing]
[grunting]
[dramatic music]
- [Warrior] There, get him.
- Come on. - He's dead.
Get after him.
- Come on!
[arrow whooshing] [grunting]
- [Marten] Let's get down the hill!
Come on, get up, get up.
[ominous music]
[Marten] They'll follow our tracks and find us.
- [Lutobor] So, we'll give them a fight.
- This could be suicide.
We're outnumbered.
And they're warriors, not peasants with pitchforks.
- Warriors or peasants, I really don't care.
[grunting]
I can't escape with an injured leg.
Hey Marten?
Marten?
He left me to die.
- [Warrior] Hey over here.
[ominous music]
- One has disappeared, but we're still on their track.
I need three of you, come with me!
We'll head him off at the pass.
[screaming]
[ominous music]
[grunting]
[ominous music]
[footsteps thudding]
[Kumai laughing]
And we meet again.
Prepare to taste the blade of my sword.
Your death will be slow.
I'll chop you up and then feed you to the animals
and when all that's left is your head,
I will find your wife and you'll watch me tear her up.
Your bastard will be my slave and my eunuch.
He'll live with the dogs and he'll scrub my boots
while I drink wine out of your scull at the Lord's table.
- Way too many words.
Now shut your trap and fight.
[ominous music]
[grunting]
[swords clinking]
[Kumai yelling]
[swords clinking]
[grunting]
- That was a good fight, I think.
[Arrow cracking] [Lutobor screaming]
Bandage your leg and drink lots of water.
I'll go and fill the canteen up.
Water will be scarce from now on.
[ominous music]
Lutobor, don't drink the -
[ominous music]
[grunting]
[ominous music]
[groaning]
- [Berendey Woman] Don't take anything from the living!
- That water was no good.
[screaming]
Who the hell are they?
- [Marten] They're Forest People, they worship Veles.
They're giving us to Berendey, that one.
- [Lutobor] It looks like no one can beat him.
- [Marten] Why no one?
No a crowd with some spears or another Berendey could.
- Could both of us beat him?
- Not a chance, but we could try.
- Uh-huh.
- Well, we can't just give up.
[rhythmic grunting]
Lutobor, well, it was nice knowing you.
[grunting continues]
[Marten laughing]
- What is that on him, huh?
[speaking in foreign language]
We do not take servants of their god, god, as sacrifices.
He'll be our slave.
Now all praise to Veles!
Throw the other one!
[Forest People cheering]
[grunting]
[rhythmic drum music]
[chanting in foreign language]
- [Forest Person] Down!

[Lutobor sobbing]
[singing in foreign language] [peaceful music]
- Lutobor?
[Lutobor continues to sob]
[water rushing]
Why aren't you happy, Lutobor?
We escaped death, so you should be rejoicing now!
- I should be happy...
because I killed innocent people in a frenzy?
- No, because a gift was revealed in you!
You can transform into a bear in battle.
- This gift isn't from God, but from the Devil.
I committed a sin that'll never be forgiven.
- I hate to tell you,
but with that gift, you'll commit many more sins.
- No, I won't, I won't.
[Lutobor screaming]
- Once a bear has awoken in you,
you can't stop or expel him.
- Oh I can, and I will.
The bear is only awakened if the warrior drinks the potion,
and I will never drink it again.
- I hear you, but if the gift is strong in you,
the bear awakes without drinking the potion
and if the gift is powerful you can tame the beast,
but your spirit has to be strong.
- But God is merciful, merciful!
He won't let me shed any more innocent blood.
- Lutobor, that god of yours is weak.
Ares is strong
and he has an appreciation for bloodshed.
- What about your blood,
that is spilled by one of your own with a treacherous blow?
[water rushing]
[Marten laughing]
- Now come on.
[ominous music]
We're almost there.
Now I need to blindfold you.
- Do all outsiders get blindfolded
when they come to visit?
- No some don't even get blindfolded,
instead they get sacrificed to Ares.
[arrows whooshing]
[suspenseful music]
[Warriors grunting]
[grunting]
- [Anagast] That's enough!
Didn't you say that Marten was killed?
What do you say, Yar?
- [laughs] I'll tell you!
[suspenseful music]
- Lutobor.
- Don't be afraid, everything's fine, I promise.
- [Gur] Oh great one,
we honor your greatness through the seasons, always.
- [Marten] Now Ares, hear my words.
I challenge Yar, leader of the pack.
Now make your ruling!
- [Anagast] The challenge has been made.
- I accept the challenge of this Wolf,
now make your ruling.
- Challenge has been accepted.
- Anagast, I fulfilled the agreement,
now release my wife and my son!
- What agreement is that?
- The lives of my wife and son for the Lord's.
I poisoned him.
- Is that true?
- We didn't have an agreement with you.
The agreement was with the man
who paid us to kidnap her.
- What is this?
What about the letter and the poison?
- What letter is this?
We don't know how to write.
[Wolves laughing]
- And who paid you to kidnap my wife?
Name?
- I'm afraid his name must be kept a secret,
according to our agreement.
As for your fate,
it will be decided after Ares has ruled.
[peaceful music]
- [Marten] Lutobor.
- You swore an oath.
- [Marten] Don't worry, I will kill Yar.
I'm stronger than he is,
don't doubt me,
I will keep my oath.
- What will happen to you?
- Ares decides who will lead.
No one will challenge me, I'm stronger than them.
The pack must have a leader.
Anagast will forgive me, he will punish me,
but he will leave me alive
and as for Ares, I know he'll forgive too.
I swore an oath.
- What happens when Yar kills you?
- Then it will be bad, Lutobor.
You'll be sacrificed
and your son will be raised by a Wolf.
Your wife will be given to the one who paid the gold.
Don't worry, I will kill Yar.
I know, I'm stronger.
Hold on, it's not the gods' thing, it's people.

Is there anybody who wishes to challenge the new leader?
Does anybody wish to challenge the leader?
- [Lutobor] I will challenge him.
- [Yar] There's no way he can challenge me.
He's an outsider.

[Rumbling]
[Lutobor startles]
[Lutobor groaning]
- Where is my family?
- Your family has become the pack's catch.
They have been paid for in gold.
- I killed the old leader and I am the new one,
so that would mean the catch is mine too.
- You are our leader now, alright then.
The leader gets the first bite.
Follow me.
So, from now on, the pack is your family.
- I'm not going to live with the pack.
There's nothing honorable
in killing innocent people, Anagast.
[Anagast groans]
- But we don't expect you to kill.
- [Lutobor] What Do You expect of me then?
- You're a warrior.
Even when the beast awakes in you, human nature prevails.
But we are different.
We're assassins by trade.
- Don't you want to live in peace?
- There's no one to protect us,
so that way the last of us will perish.
- If you stay here, you'll perish.
- [Anagast] [scoffs] Of course, I know that.
[child giggling]
[peaceful music]
- Give me my family back, Anagast, we don't belong here.
- But you can't go back, remember?
You are the Lord's enemy.
- What if I'm not?
The man who paid you to kidnap my family
is the Lord's enemy.
The Lord is alive and well.
He's just pretending to be ill.
He trusts me, I'm his right-hand man.
If I can find out who wants him dead
he will trust me even more.
I will say a word for you.
He will take you under his protection,
if you agree to be loyal to him.
I just need to know who the enemy is.
[Anagast laughing]
- I think we can help with that.

[door creaking]
- [Lord] Oh, finally!
I'm so tired of lying on this deathbed.
- My Lord, I have done as you wished.
- Now let's see just who wants my death, let's see.
Did someone make you do this?
- Luchezar, Kiev's envoy said
I'd rule under Kiev's protection.
Forgive me, Father, don't kill me!
- Hm, and how could I?
You're my only son.
[sobbing]
- Lord is dead.
- [Luchezar] All hail now to the new Lord of Tmutarakan!
May he rule wisely under the guidance of the Lord of Kiev!
[all cheering]
[women screaming]
- [Lord] Don't celebrate my death yet, Luchezar.
[swords unsheathing and clanking]
[grunting]
[suspenseful music]
[peaceful drum music] [wind blowing]
- [Lutobor] You made a wise decision
in taking the last Scythians under your protection.
They'll serve you faithfully.
- Well, where are they now?
[horses neighing]
- See, they trust your word, Lord.
[rhythmic singing]
[peaceful music]
[suspenseful music]
- [Lutobor] What is happening, what is happening?
No!
[grunting]
[arrows whooshing]
[women screaming]
- [Woman] Help!
[yelling]
- Take cover. - Help.
[Lutobor groaning]
[women screaming]
- [Woman] No, help!
[women screaming]
- [Woman] Run.
[women screaming]
- [Woman] No, no.
- [Man] This is terrible.
[somber music]
[rhythmic singing]
- Tell me why, Lord?
- In my land there will be only one people, mine,
and one power, that's mine.
- I have been loyal to you my whole life.
We had an agreement, you gave me your word.
- My subjects do not make agreements with me.
They only make pleas and serve me well.
So serve me well.
- I am not your servant.
- Who are you then?
- The last warrior.
[Lutobor] Goodbye, Lord.
[ominous music]
- We've wanted to hunt down those bandits for a while
and now finally it's done.
- Lutobor killed my son.
- He has gone to get his wife and son.
So he is yours, if you like.
- Come, we're riding now.
- [Warrior] Riding now.
- [Warrior] Yeah!
- Let's go. - Here we go.
