What to Tell Ivarr?

Discover the dialogue options when speaking to Ivarr about Ceolbert's death in Assassin's Creed Valhalla and the consequences of your choices.

Alright, so you've just found out what happened to Ceolbert, and now it's time to confront Ivarr. This is a pretty big moment in the 'Bloody Path to Peace' questline, and how you handle this conversation can shape Ivarr's reaction and the path forward. You've got three main ways to break the news to him, and each one carries a slightly different weight.

Here’s what you can say:

• “It was the Britons.”: This is the most direct approach. You hand over the blade and tell Ivarr straight up that the Britons are responsible for Ceolbert's death. It’s blunt, and it immediately points the finger, setting a clear course for revenge.
• “This means war.”: With this option, you’re not just stating a fact; you’re declaring intent. You reveal the blade and explicitly tell Ivarr that the Britons are the culprits, framing it as a declaration of war. It’s a more aggressive stance, leaving no room for doubt about your next move.
• “We failed Ceolbert.”: This option is more about expressing your shared grief and sense of responsibility. You tell Ivarr you failed Ceolbert, then hand him the blade, confirming it was the Britons. It’s a more somber approach, acknowledging the loss before pushing for action.

Honestly, all three options lead to the same outcome: Ivarr is going to be furious and want revenge. The game pretty much funnels you towards this path regardless of your exact wording. So, pick the one that feels most right for Eivor in that moment. The key thing is that Ivarr knows it was the Britons, and that's what really fuels his rage.
