Unsure whether to kill Gorm in Assassin's Creed Valhalla? He likely deserves it, especially after he lies to King Harald about the Raven Clan. Gorm takes every opportunity to stab you in the back, but isn't willing to face Eivor in battle. Still, they say mercy is a virtue.
Killing Gorm isn't the only option you have, so you might prefer to preserve him in spite of his treachery. Whatever you decide, here's the outcome to each of the three choices you can make in regards to Gorm and how they affect the story. This guide will, of course, contain some minor spoilers for Gorm and the outcome, so steer clear now if you'd like to avoid them.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla Gorm decision: Kill, banish or let King Harald decide?
Following a tough boss fight with Gorm's father, Kjotve, you chase after Gorm Kjotvesson, who manages to weasel away from a fight. It's then time to report back to King Harald, who asks for your input on what should be done with him. You have three options in the Assassin's Creed Valhalla Gorm decision:
- Kill him: If you choose to kill him, King Harald understands your decision but he's quick to note that a quick death is too good for someone like Gorm. He's called a worm, exiled, and then told to leave King Harald's land by the next full moon.
- Banish him: Choosing to banish him sees Eivor suggest that Gorm is sent to fend for himself in the wild. King Harald commends your choice and remarks that death would be too easy of a way out. Once again, Gorm will be exiled.
- Let King Harald decide: We know what the third outcome entails, but I'll cover it for good measure. Leaving the decision up to King Harald may be the most "modest and honorable answer", but it simply leads to the same fate for Gorm. He's named a worm and Harald exiles him, just like the other options.
Unfortunately, Eivor's input doesn't hold much weight here as the outcome will be exactly the same no matter which option you choose. Still, it's nice to be asked I guess?
