Did they ever explain the feral warriors?


The ones that all of a sudden woke up and the king played by John Hurt said they were under some type of spell?

Believe in yourself and create your own destiny, don't fear failure.

It is revealed that Cotys is conquering Thrace. So the "feral warriors" are really just the natives planning a surprise attack against the tyrant Cotys. It never explains where the existing "rotting corpses" came from, though.

The reminded me a bit of God of War's Kratos.

I kept thinking, gosh those Picts sure got lost on their way to Scotland.

It was all fake.

There was no magic spell holding sway over their minds.

They acted and were dressed and painted up to give them a frightening appearance to their enemies.

But when enough casualties were inflicted on them, they ran. That wouldn't have happened if they were spellbound or whatever, that was the clue that they were just normal guys.
