AC Valhalla Title Update 1.6.1 – Release Notes (ubisoft.com)
Guess which bug won't (again) be fixed in the coming patch?
June 2021 > September 2022.
I doubt it will ever be fixed. The support will hopefully end by the end of the year so we won't to have to play ever again this terrible messy game.
Hi @MattRicc2 I'm sorry that the issue that you are experiencing with 'A Challenge From the Gods' has not been resolved with today's update.
They are aware of the impact this issue is having for the affected players such as yourself and are working hard on a fix. Unfortunately this particular issue has not been something that can be fixed easily which is why it is taking sometime. I can assure you that the development team is doing all that they can to resolve this.
As a gamer myself I do sympathise with you and fully understand your frustration.
Once we have more information for you we will update this thread.

I knew that this problem had been resolved, but it didn't work at all.
During this quest, only the phrase "Complete the main story" appears, and it does not interact with the old woman.
I checked the game files 10 times, but nothing changed, I can't complete the challenge, and I can't get the weapon.
help me.
@qscv1212 Hi there, sorry to hear you're running into this issue! What version of the game do you have installed? You can see the patch notes for your version on the main menu when you first open the game.
I also recommend running through our basic PC troubleshooting if you haven't already.
@qscv1212
hello,
did you solved this issue (unable to start "A Challenge From the Gods") ?
if yes, I would be curious to know how you did, because a PS5 player have the same issue (in the French Ubi Forum)
After completing Snotinghamscire Alliance I cannot continue in the main story. I am power 339 and have completed Asgard and A gift from the otherworld. I have also completed the following alliances: Grantebridgescire, Lunden, Jorvik, and Vinland. Please help! I enjoy playing this game, but what can I do to continue the main story? I have the quest "A Challenge from the Gods" however I cannot track that mission.
Hey @Pr0tekter, thanks for reaching out! Just to check, did you already speak to Hildiran and then watch the following cutscene? If so, can you provide me with a screenshot showing your patch version? This should be visible in the lower corner of the main menu.
Hi @Pr0tekter I'm sorry to hear that you are unable to progress in the main story or start the quest 'A Challenge from the Gods'. Have you encountered any crashes since completing the Snotinghamscire arc?
Could you please provide a video to demonstrate these issues. In the video we would need to see the following:

Yes, my game shutdown a couple of times. I have tried to verify the files, which was good. Here is the link of everything that you need:

Hi @gnajs thanks for the video provided.
@gnajs @Pr0tekter I forwarded both of your save files on to the development team to investigate.
@gnajs the development team have confirmed that you will need to speak to Petra in Ravensthorpe and complete her quest in order to proceed in the quest 'A Challenge From the Gods'. If the issue still persists after this, please let us know.
@Pr0tekter the development team have confirmed that you need to complete more mastery challenges earning bronze and silver medals. Can you confirm if you have started any Mastery Challenges yet? If not please to try access the shrines on your map to see if you can play them.
Is anyone still experiencing this completed the main story and a few extras but it's stuck on progress through story I've spoke to her and aand she's settled in but won't let me talk to her to trigger fight scene
I'd really like this resolved as I'd like to fully complete the game but it's putting me off doing it if I can't do the master challenges
