If Eivor kept the necklace, it goes from a quest item to a trinket and can be sold for 62 silver. Despite the woman's claims of a reward if it is returned, there does not seem to be one.
If Eivor kept the necklace, it converts from a quest item to a trinket and can be sold for 62 silver. Despite the woman's claims of a reward if it is returned, there does not seem to be one. As the xp reward is the same regardless of choice, the greatest profit lies in keeping the necklace.
The necklace can be looted without reading the bottle's message in the game's inventory. It can also be looted without speaking to the woman a second time. The drop is random, but it will frequently drop from the very first fish dredged from the river after that point. As with most fishing tasks in the game, it is also possible to "catch" the necessary fish by using [[arrow]]s, even if the fishing line has been unlocked.
