You may now begin the search for five different books, all of which help Ivar learn about the discrepancies with the main religions of the world. Such texts can be difficult to acquire, look for them during searches of dungeons and crypts, or pay a visit to booksellers, such as Marcus of “Books and Scrolls” in Hierarch Square (Novigrad). However, the following locations have a guaranteed copy of each book. Return with a copy of the following:

Book: The Cult of Freya
Location: Electors’ Square, Novigrad. A “priest” of the Eternal Fire turns out to be an alchemist, hiding from the Redania’s and the Church’s purge of all things remotely magical. It does take some small talk to convince the man to show his wares.

When you have tomes worth Ivar reading, journey back to Snidhall Isle, and look for the hut at the base of this volcano. Speak with him again and present the books. After perusing the pages, he vows to travel the world, and plan a way to be with Irma. You can meet Ivar later by the docks in Novigrad, where he’s trying to find a job as a sailor.
