AC Valhalla Rowan or Holger

Rowan or Holger in AC Valhalla is a choice that you’ll have to make during the Reporting on East Anglia quest, after reporting to Randvi. Your choice between Holger and Rowan in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a purely moral one. Hear out both sides, and decide what you think is just. Spoiler alert; there is one choice that, I think, is clearly the better one, and we’ll show you which one it is in our AC Valhalla Rowan or Holger guide.

Choose Rowan or Holger AC Valhalla – Rowan is Right or Holger is Right

Whether you choose Rowan or Holger in AC Valhalla, it won’t have any particular effect on the overall story. However, it is a test of your overall moral compass, so it’s a good roleplaying moment for your Eivor. And, having seen the results of both choices, I’m gonna say that one option is clearly the more just – Holger is right. That’s the best choice in my opinion, without getting into spoilers. Keep reading if you want to find out what the outcomes are.

  • Rowan is right – Eivor says that Holger cutting off the horse’s tail has lowered the market value, and he must therefore pay for the whole horse. He doesn’t actually get the horse in return. Holger will be quite displeased, but won’t make to big of a fuss, so they both leave.
  • Holger is right – Eivor says that the tail hairs will regrow, so the damage isn’t permanent; hence, no money has been lost. However, he does warn Holger to never take things without asking again. At Eivor’s behest, Holger will give Rowan a cheeky apology, the latter accepts, and they go off into the sunset as… friends?

So, as you can clearly see, saying the Holger is right but forcing him to apologize is clearly the win-win outcome. I mean, let’s be real, Rowan wasn’t even planning to sell the horse yet. There’s plenty of time for the “damage” to repair itself. Ultimately, of course, the choice is up to you and what kind of character your Eivor is.


If you need help with anything else in the game, we've got a metric ton of other guides for you to check out.
