8. Find and kill the Pict Chief

You have to infiltrate Stenwege Camp, and find and assassinate the Pict Chief. You'll find him at the top of the camp within the innermost walls. You can try to enter the camp stealthily, but as soon as you are detected Faravid and the others will start an open attack. The door to the inner ring of the camp is locked and the key is in the possession of one of the guards. It is the same warrior who also possesses the ingot.

With the key you can go to the western section of the fort, kill the enemies there and use the key to open the door leading to the inner section of the fortress.

However, there is an easier way to get to the inner part of the fortress. To do this, you must approach the fortress from the northwest side.

Warning: When using the alternative route described below, there may be a problem collecting the ingot that drops from one of the enemy soldiers in the camp. So just in case, it is better to use it when you already have that ingot.

There is a tree there which you can climb up to the wall and then through the hole get to the inner part of the fortress.

Once inside the inner part of the fortress, you can kill the soldiers there, one of them, elite one, has a key to open the tower. You can also sneak to the tower in the middle and climb to its top.

Find and kill the Pict Chief

From there you will be able to perform a stealth attack and then, with a little luck as the margin for error will be very small, you will skip the entire boss fight with Galan, Son of Mordeleg.

Find and kill the Pict Chief

If you don't manage to assassinate him then you will have to defeat him the traditional way. One of the biggest difficulties in this fight will be that it takes place in a small arena and your opponent uses long-range weapon. You can try to destroy oil jars while your opponent is next to them, but be careful not to take unnecessary damage yourself. At some point in the fight, your opponent will destroy the floor and you will fall a level below. There are few more oil jars there.

Find and kill the Pict Chief

After defeating Galan, Eivor will take him outside and try to interrogate him. He doesn't get the chance to do so because Faravad will kill him, claiming that the documents he has found are enough.

Find and kill the Pict Chief

After that you will have a chat with Ulf and Faravid. Whichever option you choose, you will drink wine together and then Faravid will tell you about his plan to defeat the Picts before the winter sets in. H is aware that the Jarl will not agree to such a scenario. You will have to choose how to answer him. You can assure him that you will keep this information to yourself, tell him that you are not going to keep it secret from Halfdan, or choose a third option that seems to be neutral. Either way, your choice will not make a significant difference.

Find and kill the Pict Chief

After completing Honor Has Two Edges you will get or will be able to get Road to Hamartia.
