The Assassin's Creed Valhalla Closing the Vault quest is another instance where you have to accuse someone of being a traitor, this time known as "The Vault". They're a member of the order in Assassin's Creed Valhalla and you have to do more investigating to figure it out but thankfully, this decision has less bearing on the overall story. This is what you need to know to complete the Assassin's Creed Valhalla Closing the Vault quest.

Who is the Vault in Assassin's Creed Valhalla?

If you've done all the digging you can and still can't decide who the Vault is in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, then worry not. We're here to help. There are four suspects in the Assassin's Creed Valhalla Closing the Vault quest:

  • Hjorr
  • Audun
  • Faravid
  • Ricsige

There's reason to be suspicious of each of them, but the correct person to accuse is Audun. How do you know? He's the only one of the four who knows the wine isn't at the yuletide feast yet and he also is reluctant to drink it, which implies he knows it's poisoned. While some of the others don't want to drink it, they have good reasons for doing so.

Tell Ljufvina that you know Audun is the Vault and a cutscene will happen, which ends with you having to kill Audun, as you'd expect. Take him out and voila, Closing the Vault is complete.

When I'm not knee-deep in a game to write guides on, you'll find me hurtling round the track in F1, flinging balls on my phone in Pokemon Go, pretending to know what I'm doing in Football Manager, or clicking on heads in Valorant.
