The Forbidden Sands area in the Alfheim realm of God of War Ragnarok is an in-game location that leads to the Vanaheim realm. This particular region has a few Nornir Chests for players to discover and unlock.
Unlocking Nornir Chests rewards Kratos with either an Idunn Apple or a Horn of Blood Mead, both of which are rare items spread across the nine realms within God of War Ragnarok. While the Idunn Apple offers health boosting benefits to Kratos, the Horn of Blood Mead increases Kratos’ rage meter by a good amount.
Due to the unique nature of the items they contain, Nornir Chests are guarded by special puzzles. These puzzles come in many forms, but can be broadly categorized into three basic types. These can either be ring the bell time-trials, light the hidden torches, or by destroying environmental barriers that guard the Nornir Chests.
The Alfheim realm has seven Nornir Chests spread across its sub-regions, with the Forbidden Sands area having two Nornir Chests. They are not easy to spot either, and finding and solving the puzzle of the second Nornir Chest can be slightly tricky. This article will walk you through both the Nornir Chest locations and how to solve their puzzles.
The Forbidden Sands area has two Nornir Chests that players can unlock. Both of these Chests feature light the hidden torch challenges, where Kratos needs to light all three Braziers using his Blades of Chaos, Purple Arrows, and the Leviathan Axe as well.
The first Nornir Chest in the Forbidden Sands area is located on the northeastern edge of the Burrows. Eventually, players will come across a stone wall with cracks in it. Break open the cracked portion of the wall to reveal the Nornir Chest.
