Their link was highlighted when the deceased Athelstan appeared to both Ragnar Lothbrok and King Ecbert in "Vikings Season 4" Episode 3 ("Mercy"). Fans of the "Vikings" series witnessed the depth of the friendship Althelstan gave to Ragnar Lothbrok and King Ecbert.
Variety cites the History series creator Michael Hirst in confirming that Ragnar Lothbrok and King Ecbert will definitely reunite in a singular encounter in "Vikings Season 4" Part 2. "So two of the greatest characters in the show come together and in a most extraordinary way," Michael Hirst promised Ragnar Lothbrok and King Ecbert fans.
Screener cites Zap2IT in reporting that Michael Hirst promised that Athelstan will be present in "Vikings Season 4" Part 2. Specifically, "Vikings Season 4" Part 2 Episode 20 is an Athelstan episode and perhaps this is where the sub-arc on Ragnar Lothbrok and King Ecbert will climax.
Reports speculate that Ragnar Lothbrok may kill King Ecbert in "Vikings Season 4" Part 2. Ragnar Lothbrok himself has a date with death coming up in "Vikings Season 4" Part 2.
According to The Seer (John Kavanagh), Ragnar Lothbrok will die on the day that the blind man sees him. If so, Athelstan may find company in Ragnar Lothbrok and King Ecbert before "Vikings Season 4" Part 2 is out.
