Lif took part in the retaking of Grantebridge, and fought valiantly for the city. After the city was reclaimed, Lif took up his old position as Soma's advisor and master shipbuilder.

	~~=== Eivor's Investigation ===~~
	Recognizing that Wigmund had been aided by one of her top advisors in initially capturing the city, she dispatched Eivor to investigate Lif, Birna, and Galinn. If Eivor (the player) names Lif the traitor, he will be cut down by Soma, despite being canonically innocent. If Birna is named the traitor, Lif will be taken hostage by Galinn and will die in an effort to escape his grasp. Only if Galinn is named the traitor (the canonical ending), will Lif survive the encounter and continue to serve Soma and Eivor.

	~~=== Hunting Down Wigmund ===~~
	Assuming he survives the investigation, Lif takes part in the raid on the [[An Island of Eels\|Isle of Ely Monastery]], where Wigmund is taking refuge. Lif will fight valiantly and will become Soma's main advisor after the battle, following Birna's decision to join the [[Raven Clan]].
