The Beheading Of A King - Amon Amarth[00:00:00]
A mighty fleet came across the strait[00:00:17]
But Erik was prepared[00:00:20]
Five hundred Germans had come to his aid[00:00:24]
On horseback with their spears[00:00:27]
The fleet was carrying two thousand men[00:00:32]
Eager to draw blood[00:00:39]
But as they were about to land[00:00:46]
Erik released his heards[00:00:53]
One thousand men[00:01:12]
And five hundred horsemen[00:01:13]
Came charging down the beach[00:01:15]
When the sea-king saw this force[00:01:19]
He gave order to retreat[00:01:22]
All obeyed except one ship[00:01:26]
It held the king's own son[00:01:29]
He despised the thought of flight[00:01:32]
And attacked on his own[00:01:36]
The Danish fleet had to turn around[00:01:41]
They charged King Erik's men[00:01:47]
But it was too late to save his son[00:01:54]
His life was already spent[00:02:01]
The fighting continued bloody and fierce[00:02:08]
And the bloodshed was immense[00:02:15]
Two thousand warriors died that day[00:02:22]
Most of them were Danes[00:02:29]
The Danish king was captured[00:02:48]
Most of his guards were dead[00:02:51]
For a ransom he was released[00:02:55]
Then his people took his head[00:02:58]
