Send Ivarr to Valhalla or Deny Ivarr Valhalla?

Decide if Eivor sends Ivarr to Valhalla or denies him in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Learn the immediate consequences of your choice in the King Killer arc.

Alright, so you've reached a pretty significant moment in Assassin's Creed Valhalla: the choice regarding Ivarr the Boneless. This isn't just about one character's end; it's about how you, as Eivor, perceive honor and the afterlife for a warrior. You've got two main paths here, and what you choose can ripple through your relationships and the overall narrative.

The Choice: Send Ivarr to Valhalla or Deny Ivarr Valhalla?

This decision pops up after Ivarr has completed his… well, his 'boneless' business. He's lying there, and he's looking to you, Eivor, for the final rites. What you do next shapes his end and potentially how others, like his brother Ubba, perceive his legacy.

Option 1: Send Ivarr to Valhalla

If you choose to send Ivarr to Valhalla, you'll be giving him his axe. This is the traditional Norse way – a warrior's death, a path paved by Valkyries to Odin's hall. Ivarr, upon receiving his axe, seems to find peace, hearing the Valkyries' call before passing. It's a moment of respect for his warrior spirit, acknowledging his desire for glory in the afterlife.

Option 2: Deny Ivarr Valhalla

On the flip side, you can deny Ivarr his warrior's end. This means Eivor doesn't give him the axe, effectively condemning him to Helheim, the Norse underworld for those who don't die in glorious battle. Ivarr's reaction here is one of distress and despair. He dies, but not with the honor he seemed to crave. This choice sends a different message about Eivor's judgment or perhaps a more pragmatic view of Ivarr's actions.

What This Means for You

The immediate impact is Ivarr's final moments. But remember, choices in Valhalla often have longer-term consequences. How you handle Ivarr's end can influence conversations and relationships later, especially with characters like Ubba, who are deeply connected to Ivarr. It's worth considering what kind of leader Eivor is becoming – one who upholds tradition, or one who makes tougher, perhaps more somber, calls.
