King Canute is one of the most intriguing characters of "Vinland Saga". Since his introduction in the first season, Canute has really developed as a character, giving up his shy and childing behaviour to mature and fit the role of the feared king of Denmark. His character allows the series to explore the perspective of royalty over the story and address mature themes like authority, manipulation, personal ambitions and ambiguous morality of a ruler.
For this montage I included "The King" from the OST of Season 2, but all the other tracks are actually from Season 1 which has bren reprised to fit with the character's journey. Once again "Awaken" identifies itself as Canute's theme, whereas "Countdown" is mostly used whenever Canute has visions of the decapitated head of his father. The last track, "Rusty Sword", has been used in Episode 23 and identifies with Canute's resolution to become a more peaceful ruler after his confrontation with Thorfinn.
