Watching episode 18 made me sad about Askeladd's mom...

i mean, she deserved the punishment (she was complicit in the murder of multiple people and freed a murderer). the only bad part about that scene was that kjetils reasoning was stupid, which was done in order to make him be in the wrong in this scene

Beating a pregnant woman to death is a well deserved punishment for trying to escape. Ok 🥴

L01MK said:

1. I never said that
2. He didnt beat her to death
3. You're arguing in bad faith. She didnt just escape, she was complicit in the murder of multiple people

ZXEAN said:
1. She didn't kill anyone. Moreover Ketil doesn't even know at this point that his men were killed so he basically beat her to death just for escaping the farm.

2. If Shake didn't stop him she would have died right there.

3. I am a manga reader so I know the fate of Arnheid.

L01MK said:
insane how badly you missed my point. Firstly, i was talking about Ketil in a meta way (what the creators of the show decided to do with his character. The way the events transpired in the series, he is clearly unwell and in the wrong). Secondly, being a slave doesnt mean you can just go around murdering people (or being complicit with it) with no repercussion

L01MK said:
To reiterate for anyone reading this. I dont disagree that what happened to Arnheid was terrible and that Kjetil is a terrible person the way he is portrayed in the series. I was just saying that her actions throughout the series were worthy of punishment (trying to escape as a slave doesnt mean its ok to be complicit in murder or to free a murderer) Especially in the age and place this series is set. However i felt Kjetil's character couldve been used in a better way in this scene and that there was potential for the scene to be better.

Having repurcussion doesn't undermine what the justification is behind their reasoning...

ogking31 said:
You're the type of person to say slavery is okay and trying to be free isn't okay. That's literally what you're saying.

L01MK said:
Youre responding to a point i didnt make. Again. Ofcourse slaves are justified in wanting freedom.
Bad faith argument.

ZXEAN said:
@L01MK

3.  Ok? How does that matter?



Anyway I understand your reasoning. I also think what Gardar did was wrong but we already saw in what kind of situation he was in. I don't think there was any other option left for him in order to escape the farm.

EDIT: i shouldve know better and not made a comment like this in a forum filled with rabid fanboys who will misconstrue everythin you say just because you criticized the series

Maybe she deserved some punishment for being disobedient, but beating a pregnant woman within an inch of her life is not it. Ketil should have stopped when she explicitly told him about the child, but nope he had already lost it by then.

ogking31 said:
Then your point is??? Self defense isn't the same as warranting killing people for no reason. But wait this punishment is warrant because she tried to defend someone who was trying to be free and trying to free her? you literally see from the start of the series of wanting to be free. 

This argument makes no sense

I agree with you, from a slave owner's perspective (based on the society presented in this show) she deserves punishment for her actions, however the motives behind Ketils beating he gave her was not at all justified nor were the motives behind it.

L01MK said:

1. I never said that
2. He didnt beat her to death
3. You're arguing in bad faith. She didnt just escape, she was complicit in the murder of multiple people

EDIT: just noticed i worded my first comment incorrectly, so i understand why you got that out of my comment. i didnt mean it that way.

You missed the part where slavery is wrong. Her husband escaped by killing his abusive captor, and then was attacked by multiple other people. With a modern day perspective, you shouldn’t think that people trying to escape slavery are deserving of being punished.

Killing a dozen people for your own sake isnt justified.

Sagenaker11 said:
so you're saying he should stay quiet and be treated like crap throughout his life. Where do people like you come from lol

K-Arlovski said:

If it was one life he took, o k. taking like what, almost 10 or over 10 is just straight up murderer

Sagenaker11 said:
lol what stupid logic, so if 10 of them charge towards you, are you going to just ignore it 😅😅. Gardar never attacked anyone, everything he did was reactive in nature. He never went out of his way to kill anyone, he was only trying to defend himself and get to his wife
