Wondering if you should tell the Grain Merchant about the stolen food inAvowed? Elder Offerings is a quest you can pick up in Emerald Stair that involves choosing between giving stolen food back or using it as an offering. Below, we’ll go through all Elder Offerings quest outcomes inAvowed.

Elder Offerings quest choices

Speak with Governor Ignasi Vidarro

Although the quest log asks you to choose between telling the Grain Merchant and fulfilling Rossana’s request, there is actually another option you can choose. You can choose to approach Governor Ignasi at his home in Fior mes Iverno and select the following dialogue prompt:

‘Did you know Elder Rossana has been leaving food out for the diseased?‘

He will say he is aware of it but hasn’t intervened yet as it isn’t a crucial issue and respects the tradition of honoring the dead. You can then choose from the following dialogue options:

Speak with the Grain Merchant

Approach Ilena the Grain Merchant in the Farmer’s Market southeast of Fior mes Iverno. If you speak with her and inform her that Elder Rossana stole the grain, you’ll have the following options:

Place the grain at the three burial sites

If you decide to visit all three graves and place the food as instructed by Rossana, once you return to her outside of Quilicci’s House in Fior mes Iverno she will give you the ‘Berath’s Blessed Ward‘Unique Trinket. This allows you to take 5% less damage from Vessels (Skeletons) and is worth 300 gold.

Additionally, your journey to the graves will take you past other quest locations such as Kai’s companion quest, ‘Battle Scars,’ and the ‘Missing Rangers’ quest. So, you can fulfill these on the way if you have yet to do so. The quest will launch hordes of Shadow and Vessel enemies on you, however, so don’t expect it to be an easy ride.

Which is the best Elder Offerings choice?

Whichever outcome you choose for Elder Offerings will mostly be down to personal preference. If you’re down on gold, grabbing the 550 from the Governor may be worth it to you. Personally, I prefer the option tofulfill the quest for Rossana. Her Unique Trinket will be missable otherwise and there are plenty of loot crates and other items of interest on the way to the three destinations. In particular, make sure you open the chest within the Truffle Farm and Logging Site (next to the coastal burial site). You’ll also get XP not only from fulfilling the quest but also through the enemies you kill during the quest so it’s worth the trek.
