After many years of seclusion, he will urge his sons Ivar The Boneless and Bjorn Ironside to the throne. Especially giving a personal favor to the first. It will continue on until the next "Vikings" Season 5 episodes.
The Old King will take liking to Ivar The Boneless, his favorite son. Even, mentoring him to the throne. In Parent Herald's report on "Vikings" Season 5, it describes Ivar as "this son of Ragnar Lothbrok possesses pathological cruelty. The big question: is Why Ivar?
Specifically, referring to Ragnar Lothbrok's words---"Power. The power of a king." A king needs to have a surmountable power to lead, Ivar the Boneless may be a king's son but he is limited than his brother. In effect, he could just be a puppet to his father's power game in "Vikings" Season 5.
