Tedd Deireadh, The Final Age is the last real stretch of The Witcher 3’s main story. Right after On Thin Ice, the White Frost breaks loose over Undvik and a new Conjunction of the Spheres seems to begin. Eredin’s dying words about Avallac’h appear to be true, so Geralt and Yennefer race to the elven tower Tor Gvalch’ca to stop him.
How to start Tedd Deireadh, The Final Age
It starts automatically when On Thin Ice ends. The suggested level is 30 and the quest gives 1,000 XP. Geralt’s health is refilled at the start, so you don’t need to meditate after the Eredin fight.
The ride to Tor Gvalch’ca
You follow Yennefer on foot, then on horseback, while fire falls from the sky and monsters from other worlds appear all over the island: ice giants, forktails, cyclopses, arachasae, elementals and Hounds of the Wild Hunt. Near the tower Yennefer shields you from the Frost and opens a hole in the barrier around it.
Inside, Avallac’h throws down his sword when Geralt challenges him. He never betrayed anyone: facing the White Frost was Ciri’s own idea. Whatever you say, she will go.
Your choices come back
As Ciri enters the gate she sees flashbacks of key moments from the game. These are the choices that decide her fate. If at least half of them were positive she survives; otherwise she does not come back. Which ending you get is shown in the next quest, Something Ends, Something Begins. Our Witcher 3 endings guide lists every choice that counts.
Tips
- Werewolf decoction is handy for the long run, and Nekker Warrior decoction helps keep your horse from panicking.
- Yennefer rides erratically. Following her on foot is fine; nothing fails if you lag behind, and you can even loot and fight.
- Stay close to Yennefer near the tower, or the Frost will hurt you.
- There is no waypoint at the very end. Just walk up the path to the tower.
- Last words to Ciri: your final line changes her mood, but it does not seem to change the ending. Wishing her luck is a nice send-off.
