{{sidequote|This many assembly leaders? It smells of an ambush, sir. Be prepared.|Rikolfr to Ivans{{book ref|sky1|i|3}}|side=right|size=250px}}
After Ivans dismisses Spensa from the DDF, Rikolfr quickly meets up with her to warn her that three National Assembly Leaders have come in person for a briefing on the DDF's status after the latest [[Krell]] attack, and says that that many assembly leaders having come in person rather than just sending their normal subordinates "smells like a trap." He also reports that, while the shipyard the scouts spotted prior to the start of the battle was too far for traditional scanners, they were able to send a science ship to investigate and the scientists predict that, if the DDF could recover it, they could gain "hundreds" of [[acclivity ring]]s. He notes that the shipyards' guns are predicted to go offline in a couple of days, right around the time it is projected to begin falling into the atmosphere, and that the Krell will likely try to destroy it once that happens. He then follows Ivans into the meeting with the assembly leaders, though he remains mostly quite and speaks up only to point out that the DDF could end up committing all their ships to claiming the shipyard.{{book ref|Skyward|i|3}}▼

=== Second Battle of Alta ===
During the Second Battle of Alta,
After Spensa crashes, he brings Ivans new reports and is the only one besides Ivans still watching the battle on the holoprojector; the junior admirals and other staff are all in chaos trying to sound the alarm to the caverns. He reports that the Krell bomber with the lifeburster is less than five minutes away from Alta Base and that all of the emergency gun emplacements are either already down or taking heavy fire. Wheh he asks if they should try to evacuate the command post for a deep cavern, Ivans elects to remain in Alta Base. Although he finds it distressing, he choses to stay with her.{{book ref|sky1|52}}
When Spensa returns in [[M-Bot]], flying at Mag-20, he's shocked by the ship's speed.{{book ref|sky1|52}} When the pilots successfully cause the lifeburster to drop before it can get in position to hit [[Igneous Cavern]] (although within the "death zone" where Alta Base would be destroyed), Rikolfr weeps, though whether he does so out of joy for Igneous being saved or fear of what he believes is his impending death is unclear.{{book ref|sky1|53}} As Ivans' personal aide, he likely attended Spensa's briefing on the information M-Bot hacked from the Krell after the battle was over.{{book ref|sky1|epilogue}}
