The Plight of the Warlock

Guide your way through Assassin's Creed Valhalla's 'The Plight of the Warlock' Mystery. Learn where to find the Hunter, talk to the Warlock, and make your choice.

Alright, so you've stumbled upon a Mystery called "The Plight of the Warlock" in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. It's located in the Rygjafylke region, specifically on the riverbanks just south of Nottfall. If you're coming from Fornburg, it's a bit of a trek west, or you can just hop on your longship and follow the fjord past Nottfall.

When you get there, you'll see a Hunter chilling near a wooden post, hiding in a bush. Go chat with him. He'll tell you he's after a Warlock who apparently poisoned his sister. The Hunter will then lead you down a path towards the Warlock's hut, which is nestled in the woods.

Once you reach the cottage, it's time to talk to the Warlock. Turns out, he's not the bad guy here. He'll explain that he was actually trying to *save* the sister from an illness, not poison her. After this little heart-to-heart, you'll be faced with a choice: side with the Hunter and kill the Warlock, or believe the Warlock and take down the Hunter. Either way, you'll snag 20 silver and 1,200 EXP. Just a heads-up, fighting the Hunter is a bit tougher because he's got a shield that'll block your attacks, and it turns out he's actually a War-Band Chief during the fight!
