God of War Ragnarok: How to find and solve the Strond Nornir Chests in Alfheim

sportskeeda.com:

As soon as players arrive in the Alfheim realm of God of War Ragnarok, they will find themselves in the Strond region, a fairly linear section of the map that leads towards the Tower of Light. Before rushing over to the Tower of Light, players can spend some time exploring hidden artifacts and chests that can be found in the Strond region.

This feature will guide players through the areas where they can come across both the Nornir Chests in the Strond region of God of War Ragnarok and how to solve their respective puzzles:

Shortly after arriving in Alfheim, Kratos and Tyr will eventually reach a point where there are two large stone steps leading upwards. Avoid taking the stone steps and drop down the ledge located to the left to find the first Nornir Chest.

The first Nornir chest puzzle is a 'light the torch' challenge, where Kratos has to ignite all three torches, hidden somewhere in the vicinity of the Nornir Chest with the Blades of Chaos.

The first torch is located opposite the Nornir Chest, right on the edge of the cliff. To light a torch, players need to hold their L2 button and lock aim on the target (in this case, the torch which needs to be ignited) before tapping the R2 button. This will result in Kratos igniting the torch using his Blades of Chaos.

To light the second torch, players need to turn around and walk towards the frail wooden structure. Once you're there, peer down while facing south to find a rune with the letter “n” on the edge of a cliff. Ignite this rune with the Blades of Chaos, just like before.

To get to the final torch, head back to the stone steps where Tyr is standing. Climb the stone steps and look to the left to find a ledge. Drop down this ledge to find a torch with an “R” rune written on it.
