Vikings season 4 ending explained
The Vikings season 4 closed with the introduction of Heahmund, who is a religious man. This character left the viewers with several doubts as to his motives, which seemed unclear at the time. During the season, the main protagonist for the Vikings series, Ragnar, is shown to be badly wounded and in a bad state. He would eventually go on to die and his sons would set out to avenge his death, in different ways. During this time, Floki begins to train Ivar, one of the sons of Ragnar. He manages to turn him into a bloodthirsty Viking. As the seasons play along, a number of events take place throughout the run. Towards the end, however, the Viking army fights against King Aelle whom they brutally defeat.
It is also revealed that Helga has been murdered and Floki finds her body. Devastated at the sight, he musters courage and buries her, giving her a more respectable ending. Meanwhile, the brothers argue with each other jovially as to who will kill their father’s murderer. The sons of Ragnar wait patiently as they eagerly wait to avenge the death of their father. It is later revealed that Bjorn makes a side deal with a mysterious character. Later, the brothers are anguished as they are denied the chance to kill their father's murderer and wish to punish the court and the country for dishonouring their father’s death. The arguments get heated to a point where Ivar throws an axe killing Sigurd. This forever divides the brothers.
