Turning in the Lordvessel to one means you cannot later give it to the other.

Rumors. It was originally believed that Sif could be spared and allowed to limp away during the last segment of the fight. This is not true and the only way to progress in the game is to kill Sif; it is not an optional boss. Your dealings with Sif have no impact on the Forest Hunter covenant.

He will relate to the player their destiny, as well as other story-related information.
