The former Viking's fame causes all the soldiers to remember him with the Jomsviking Thorkell recognizing his skills as a warrior once again. Thorkell has Thorfinn talk with Commander Floki in order to request him to become their new leader as he possesses both skills and youth in contrast to their Floki's successor who is still too young. Although Thorfinn does not accept such proposal, Floki has memories of his father Thors who worked alongside him and decides to send two ships to kill him. When Thorfinn's group is leaving, they notice the Jomsviking following them and Thorfinn decides to stay with Hild to protect his allies. Although Thorfinn easily defeats most of the soldiers with Hild's aid, one of them claims they are actually working for Vagn rather than Floki and requests to follow him.

Garm is imprisoned by Floki in the Jomsborg stronghold alongside his hostages for causing Thorkell's rebellion. However, he is later sent to their enemy to negotiate with the Viking. Intriguided by the mercenary's skill for his achievement, Thorkell frees Garm and challenges him to a one-on-one fight. As both are equally matched and suffer several wounds, Thorkell's forces agree with freeing Garm. Meanwhie, Floki's grandson Baldr frees Einar, Leif and Gudrid after learning they are related to Thorfinn and wants to request his aid with leadership of the Jomvikings until he becomes an adult. Though Baldr manages to make Einar and Leif leave, soldiers see this act, forcing Gudrid to act like she is actually a maid. As Einar and Leif are forced to leave, the latter receives an arrow to his back which severely wounds him. Thorkell is also wounded while attacking Jombsborg which causes him to retreat. Einar, Leif and Thorkell's group then find Thorfinn's grup who inform him of the current situation which causes him to decide to rescue Gudrid.

Thorfinn and his allies infiltrate Jombsborg to find Gudrid. One of her friends recognizes Thorfinn by sharing the name of Karli's dog and leads him to Gudrid and Baldr. Despite Baldr's request to have him lead the Jomvikings, Thorfinn denies such proposal. Just then, Floki appears in the area enraging Thorfinn as he finally has the chance to avenge his father. However, when Baldr takes the blame and attempts to shield his grandfather, Thorfinn regains his composture. The Jomsborg then becomes a war area with Baldr proposing Thorfinn to use him as hostage so that Floki's forces will be unable to attack him and eventually leave. However, Garn returns, demanding back his weapons and eventually challeneges Thorfinn to another one-on-one fight. Thorfinn is forced to fight back while Gudrid and Halfdan escape.

The war continues in Jombsborg with Thorkell's arrival to the battlefield, demanding Floki's death. Thorfinn still keeps his original wounds from his previous fight with Garn. As a result, inspired by Askeladd's tricks, Thorfinn gives up his weapon and mocks Garn's own dependence on a weapon to fight. This enrages Garn causing him to give up his weapon but is easily defeated in hand-to-hand combat. Thorfinn eventually leaves the battlefield but decides to stop the war after an encounter with Thorkell. Under orders from Canute, Thorfinn becomes the new leader from the Jomvikings and gives two orders to his soldiers: Floki should be exiled rather than be killed by Thorkell while the entire organization will disbanded. In exchange of freeing Floki, Thorfinn accepts a duel with Thorkell. However, an enraged Gudrid instead tries to take his place in the fight against Thorkell who wonders why is she so interested in his rival. When Gudrid admits she is in love with Thorfinn, Thorkell quits the duel and tells Thorfinn to take care of the young woman.
