A Brother's Keeper

Follow Sigurd to the cave of Goinnhellir.

Break the ice wall by striking it with a weapon or shooting it with your bow.

Continue following Sigurd and respond to his dialogue options. The outcome remains the same regardless of your choices.

After a scene with an orb, step onto the platform with Sigurd and Svala to trigger another scene.

You will find yourself in a longhouse-like building. Use Odin’s Sight to locate the quest objective and proceed through the doors.

You will encounter fallen warriors who refer to you as Havi.

After the scene with Sigurd and Svala, a play battle will begin. You will have infinite stamina, health, and powerful attacks.

Kill as many enemies as you wish, then speak with Sigurd on the rock.

Fight Sigurd. It will only take a few basic attacks to defeat him.

A cutscene will play, and you will find yourself back in the starting location of this strange world. The day will repeat.

Speak with Sigurd in the center of the field of battle, kneeling on the ground.

A scene will play, and Eivor will notice their father. The scene ends, and Eivor wakes up.

Walk outside to begin another scene.

Search for Varin, Eivor’s father, among the warriors.

Charge to the battlefield and find Sigurd again.

After mistaking another man for your father, you will wake up again.

After the scene, return to the battlefield.

Search for Sigurd on the battlefield. He will be in the same place as usual after a few moments of fighting.

A scene will play where Eivor walks with Odin.

Follow Odin until you have the opportunity to speak, initiating a fight with Odin.

To fight Odin: Odin cannot be damaged as he has no health bar. Your health will be replenished when depleted. You must lose all your health at least once to trigger a new phase, at which point Sigurd will appear through a distant doorway.

To escape Odin: Open your inventory and unequip your axe. This will allow you to run to the doorway without Odin pulling you back.

After the scene, you will find Sigurd at Basim’s mercy. Chase Basim.

Confront Basim: Basim can kill you. Avoid all of his attacks, including an unblockable/unparryable dive which results in an assassination animation. Look for the red rune aura above Basim before he attacks.

Basim’s regular strikes are swift but can be blocked and parried. Keep moving to avoid smoke bombs.

Dodge or roll away from Basim’s ranged attacks (indicated by a red marker).

Watch out for Basim climbing stone pillars and jumping down.

Hit Basim a few times with basic attacks to speed up the fight and prompt dialogue.

Strike Basim with a stun attack to trigger a cutscene.

Basim will run away toward Sigurd. Chase him through climbing obstacles and under objects.

Reach Basim and Sigurd, and a cutscene will play. You will then fight Basim a final time.
