Arivanya is an Altmer resident of Windhelm and wife of Ulundil. She is one of the possible women to be murdered by The Butcher at the end of "Blood on the Ice."

Interactions[]

Blood on the Ice[]

If the Dragonborn accuses Wuunferth the Unliving of being "The Butcher," and he is locked away, Arivanya may be the next victim of "the Butcher" in the coming days. Her body will be found outside of Candlehearth Hall, alongside a guard and Calixto Corrium.

However, if the Dragonborn chooses to cooperate with Wuunferth and tracks "the Butcher" to his next crime scene, Arivanya will appear as the next victim, although the crime will be found in progress. The Dragonborn may save her in the marketplace of Windhelm by killing the butcher before he stabs her.
