Season 2: Aslaug
In season 2, Aslaug is comfortably living in Kattegat giving birth to Ragnar’s sons and trying to manage her husband’s wandering eyes when he becomes interested in a servant girl. She tells Ragnar that she is a shaman and can predict the future. To prove this she predicts that her next child will be born with the image of a snake in his eye.
She turns out to be right when she gives birth to Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye.
While Ragnar is away on one of his raids, Kattegat is raided by Jarl Borg and his men. Aslaug and her children with Siggy and Rollo escape into the countryside where Aslaug has a difficult time adjusting to country life (too dirty apparently) and once they reclaim Kattegat, she becomes pregnant yet again despite her warning after Ragnar forces himself on her.
The child, Ivar, is born deformed without the use of his legs but Aslaug loves him all the same.
