How to obtain

  1. Gather three Malicious Blood and offer them at the Strange Bowl in the Aesir Passage.
  2. Enter The Prison and defeat Kall Fimbulbringer, including the middle Aspect gauntlet.
  3. Pick up the Sacrificial Blood after the fight and return it to the Sacrificial Stones.

What it's used for

  • Defeat Kall Fimbulbringer in the Prison.
  • Carry the blood back to the Sacrificial Stones to trigger the ending.
  • It is separate from Malicious Blood, the pre-fight offering.

Common mistakes

  • Taking it to the Aesir Passage instead of the Sacrificial Stones.
  • Expecting it to grant a Forsaken Power; Kall does not grant one.

What happens after Kall

Kall Fimbulbringer drops Sacrificial Blood when defeated in the Prison beyond the Aesir Passage. Loot it together with the Crown Jewel. Kall does not drop a Forsaken trophy and does not unlock a Forsaken Power, so there is no boss-stone power to activate.

Take Sacrificial Blood back to the Sacrificial Stones where the journey began. Its interaction advances Valheim's ending sequence. Store it safely or portal home after the boss rather than carrying it through unrelated exploration.

The similar name creates the main mistake. Malicious Blood is collected before Kall, one per Jotun Invasion, and three are offered to the Strange Bowl. Sacrificial Blood appears only after Kall and belongs at the Sacrificial Stones. If an altar rejects the item, check the icon and name before assuming the progression event failed.

Frequently asked questions

Where is Sacrificial Blood used?

Take Kall’s drop to the Sacrificial Stones to advance the ending sequence.

Is it the same as Malicious Blood?

No. Three Malicious Blood summon Kall; Sacrificial Blood drops after the fight.

Can Sacrificial Blood go through a portal?

Yes. Sacrificial Blood can pass through a standard portal, so you can return to the Sacrificial Stones through your established network after defeating Kall.

Ending-item checklist

  • Returning to the Strange Bowl with the post-fight blood.
  • Waiting for a Kall trophy or Forsaken Power that does not exist.
  • Leaving the boss arena without checking that both major drops were collected.

The Sacrificial Stones are the original world-start monument, not a new Deep North altar. Use a portal network to return safely and leave the Crown Jewel at the Black Forge base first if desired. The ending interaction is the sole progression purpose documented for the blood, so it does not need to remain in a combat loadout.
