Vikings' Ragnar never wanted the power a king wields, but now he's stuck with it.

If Ragnar (Travis Fimmel) didn't have enough problems as it was, his new title will bring him a boatload of new troubles in the season 3 premiere.

"The first scene starts out off with all the trouble that power causes," Fimmel said at the 2014 San Diego Comic Con, according to Nerd Repository. "I think throughout this year it really becomes alive, how hard it is to be a leader and all the sacrifices you have to make and all that sort of stuff."

There is an upside to Ragnar's new title, however. The Viking will finally have a chance to explore lands that were once out of his grasp.

"We go to Paris! Last year got caught up with so much family drama in Kattegat. So much drama that Ragnar and the boys, we didn't get to explore like we wanted to," Fimmel explained to Nerd Repository. "We set the farms up in England this year and then we're like 'What do we want to do next?' Ragnar is a very curious character and he wants to see what else is out there. So he gets back to Season 1 where he just wanted to sail somewhere. So we do that at the end of the year. I haven't read the scripts. But we go to Paree."
