Walkthrough
- 1The chapter starts with a cutscene where Kjotve the Cruel plans to enslave Eivor. Eivor escapes during Kjotve's departure. Loot the surrounding area, including nearby buildings, before moving on.
- 2Replenish your health by picking cloudberries from bushes. These can be used to form a ration for quick healing in battle. You start with one ration slot, upgradeable to six.
- 3Health can also be restored by eating food from cauldrons found in settlements and camps. Loot houses and crates for silver and trade goods.
- 4Open your map and set a custom marker at the northern synchronization point. Synchronize with new points to reveal spectacular views, unlock fast travel, and discover Wealth, Mysteries, and Artifacts.
- 5New points of interest will appear on your map after synchronization. These offer XP and materials for upgrades. You can track up to three points of interest on your compass.
- 6After synchronizing, jump into the pool below and climb out. Head northeast to a small camp guarded by one of Kjotve’s warriors. Defeat them using your bow or by charging in, as assassination is not yet available.
- 7Continue northeast to the Wealth location in the center of the map. Use Odin’s Vision to locate it. Loot the chest and break nearby crates.
- 8Head northwest to Hoettrstrand. Use Sýnin to scout the area and mark enemies with Odin’s Vision.
- 9Enter Hoettrstrand, noting the restricted area indicator. Kill the guards, using dodge and roll to avoid attacks.
- 10Locate the wealth trapped under ice. Use your bow or axe to break the ice, dive into the water, and retrieve the loot chest.
- 11Head northwest to find more wealth within a shipwreck below floating tree trunks. Enter the shipwreck from the southwest.
- 12Return to the surface and use the tree trunks to reach a rock formation to the north. Follow wooden platforms to the mast of an abandoned ship.
- 13Leap onto the mast to its highest spar, then jump to a wooden platform to the east. Climb the rock surface to the southwest and follow the path to a raised ladder.
- 14Use your bow to break the ladder's support, then climb it to reach the wealth above.
- 15After looting Hoettrstrand, head northeast to Avaldsnes for the main objective.
- 16As you approach Avaldsnes, you'll meet Dag, who gives you the Raven Clan Shield. Equip it to your secondary hand slot for blocking attacks.
- 17Enter the settlement by climbing.
