The second Oath Guard you kill drops Hilt of Hrotti; loot it before moving on.
14. Lindwyrm — Crimson Dread arena. Complete For Vanaheim! by defeating Crimson Dread, rescuing Birgir and activating the Overgrown Tower gateway. Climb back down from that gateway into the dragon arena; the rift is directly ahead in its corner.
15. Lindwyrm — eastern altar. At the eastern Plains blacksmith beside the Celestial Altar, climb the stairs to the Seidr lore marker. Move left of the marker and descend toward the lake to find the rift. Incomplete: The left/right descent beyond the eastern Seidr marker needs a route check; the rift is on the lake path below the marker.

Burn the vines before turning the hidden spinner.
6. Odin’s Raven — ogre island. Restore The Jungle’s river and boat to the island where ogres throw rocks. Dock behind the island, then kill the ogres. Search above the red chest on their island for the raven; a dragon taking the last ogre’s corpse does not remove this pickup.

Cross the root route, pass the stag and continue to the dragon den. Drop into its hole and hit the wooden spinner above the cage with the axe to lift its gate.

7. Starblush. Restore the Crater river through Return of the River in The Jungle. In The Sinkholes, reach the Celestial Altar behind Haklangr’s Berserker gravestone. Walk west from the altar and pick Starblush beside the gate that was lowered on the way to Ash Tyrant.
8. Stag of Autumn. Travel to the Sinkholes Entrance gateway in the Crater. Inspect the ground immediately beside the gateway to find the stag before taking the deeper Sinkholes route.

10. The Burning Skies. Restore the river, then boat from the Sinkholes gateway to the arena with the destroyed dragon pillars. Open its river gate with the chain and boat onward to the next beach. Enter the tunnel opposite the next chain gate; break the weak rocks with three simultaneous spears and continue past the Hourglass pickup.

Wishing Well

1. Lost Page — Wishing Well corridor. From the Jungle Entrance gateway, open the nearby chain-operated gate and follow the passage into the Wishing Well.

Return to the chest and connect the two distant braziers with sigils; shoot a sigil into the already lit left fire to ignite the far-right one.
2. Odin’s Raven — gateway chest. After the story, travel to the Burning Cliffs gateway and follow the only downhill path. At the Legendary Chest along this route, inspect the adjacent rock for the raven and throw at it.

Surtr’s Forge

1. Odin’s Raven — forge arch. Return to the forge where you first met Surtr during The Summoning, recognizable by the many swords in the ground. Turn away from the forge and look upward beneath the archway for the raven. The wall below that perch on the left is your exit climb.

4. Hilt of Dainsleif. Take the Lost Page from the Elven Sanctum’s ground-floor library tables. For Svefnthorn, climb Dragon Beach’s chain, use Draupnir on the wooden post and enter Alberich Hollow.

Bring the page and Nar’s Cup to a blacksmith and craft Hilt of Tyrfing.

Lower Realms
