The Crater Regions
The Plains	The Jungle	The Sinkholes

The Plains- Spirit Mementos 1 - Brooch[]

This Artifact is found and assembled as part of the Casualty of War: The Brooch Favor. To start it, head for the Eastern area of The Plains and stand at the spot where you first arrived, facing towards the frozen lightning bolt. Here, head East-North-East and check behind a tree. The spirit and half of the Brooch will be there. To assemble the Artifact and complete the Favor, head for the South-Eastern corner of the area, the top of a cliff that overlooks down into The Sinkholes below. Here you'll find a Traveller named Egil (or two Draugr if you already defeated him). The other half of the Brooch will be here close to the skeleton.

The Plains - Lore-U 1 - Egil[]

Type: Scroll

Egil the Oath Guard is found in the South-East corner of The Plains, at the top of a cliff overlooking The Sinkholes below to the East. This is the same spot as the second half of the Artifact described above.

The Plains - Odin’s Raven 1[]

This Odin's Raven is located in the North-East corner of The Plains, close to where Brok's workshop is. You can spot it to the East, perched on the opposite side of the chasm.

The Plains - Lore 1 - Seidr[]

Type: Lore Marker

This Lore Marker is found on the Eastern side of The Plains, up where the Celestial Altar is. It'll be between that and Brok's workshop, close to the local Mystic Gateway.

The Plains - Yggdrasil Rift 1[]

This Lindwyrm is located in The Plains, specifically in the Eastern Celestial Altar where the Odin's Raven and Lore described above is. Once you've cleared this spot of Seidr, head to the North-Eastern corner and drop down to the edge of the canyon/river. Here on your left will be the Realm Tear, behind a tree.

The Plains - Nornir Chest 1[]

Type: Bell

This Nornir Chest is found in the North-Eastern corner of the initial starting area of The Plains, close to the Celestial Altar. However you cannot complete it until you've made your way up to the Celestial Altar from the South and cleared out the local Seidr. Once you have, look for a ledge on the Eastern edge and kick down the metal plate: that’ll let you ascend up from the West without having to go all the way back around. The Nornir Chest itself is found to the left of the ledge you can use to get up to the Celestial Altar, in front of a small pool. The R Rune is up to the left of the chest, while the C Rune is off to the right, at the back of the pool. The N Rune is the trickier one. Leap up the ledge to the Celestial Altar, then head all the way to the left to the edge. To your left will be the N Rune's bell: use a Blazing Surge to clear away the Hel's Bramble. The R and C Rune bells will ring long enough for you to climb back up and ring the N Rune's bell, but you can circle around the rocks to the left and hit it from the lower level as well if you wish (although it is a slightly tricky shot under time pressure).

The Plains - Odin’s Raven 2[]

This Odin's Raven is found in the Western half of The Plains. Head to the spot just West of the frozen lightning bolt and look North-East: you'll see the Raven here perched on top of a cliff.

The Plains - Odin’s Raven 3[]

The third Odin's Raven in The Plains is located in the Western half of the region. In the main lake area, head to the North-West corner, mount over a fallen stone column, then drop down the cliff. Ahead and on your left will be a cave. Head over to the edge of the cave, then look down and to the left to spot the Raven grooming itself below.

The Plains - Odin’s Raven 4[]

This Odin's Raven is found in an area of The Plains that is technically only accessible at night, however there is a way to reach it during the daytime. From the location of Odin's Raven 3 described above, continue to the other side of the tunnel and leap up to the top of the wall ahead. Once you've made it up, look for the spot where you can look down to a lower area in the South-West. From the right angle, you can see the Raven perched on a rock below. Strike it with your Axe.

Spirit Mementos 2 - Scroll[]

This Artifact is in the North-Western area of The Plains, and requires a little bit of work to get to. Head for the North-West corner of the main area with the lake and look for some fallen rocks with yellow Wind Fissures in them. Stick a Draupnir Spear in each: you can't destroy it yet because there's a third one on the back. With that set up, head North and mount over the fallen stone column, then drop down the ledge. Ahead will be a cave: grapple across both gaps, then head right around the rock and down the tunnel, guarded by explosive plants and Wretches. At the bottom will be half of the Scroll, alongside the spirit. Once you've talked to them, return outside and leap up the tall wall to get to the Celestial Altar. Here, locate the Mystic Gateway and head to the ledge to the right of it overlooking some red trees. From here you can spot the rocks to your left: stick it with a Draupnir Spear, then destroy the rocks. Drop down the ledge back into the main lake area and head through the new opening to the red tree meadow. The other half of the Artifact will be here next to the glowing skeleton.

The Plains - Legendary Chest 1[]

Contains: Spear Heavy Runic Attack - Honor the Fallen

This Legendary Chest is found in the same red tree meadow as the second half of the Artifact described above. It'll be in the back-right, to the right of the Artifact half. The chest contains the Honor the Fallen Heavy Runic Attack for the Draupnir Spear. While it has the same power as Artillery of the Ancients, it has a bit more Stun, and is a focused shockwave around Kratos, meaning aiming it isn't much of an issue.

The Plains - Lore-U 2 - Jorgen[]

Prerequisite: Nighttime
Type: Scroll

This piece of Lore is found in the Eastern half of The Plains, specifically in the South-Western corner of it. However, it's blocked by a fence of plants during the day, meaning you'll have to go to a Celestial Altar to change the time of day to night. Once you've done that, head to the South-Western corner into a secluded path. Cross the gap with the grapple point, and you'll be fighting another Traveller: Jorgen the Oath Guard. Kill him, and he'll drop the Scroll.

The Plains - Lore-U 3 - Vali[]

Prerequisite: Nighttime
Type: Scroll

This piece of Lore is found in the Western half of The Plains, however you can only access the area it's in at night. You can do this by using one of the Celestial Altars, one of which is in The Plains’ Western half. Once you've done that, you may also have to defeat an Ogre, who's banging onto the door leading to the Lore. Kill the Ogre, then open the door and head down the valley (being careful of the explosive plants along the way). At the end, head left to where the Chest is. Here you'll be ambushed by two Seidr Shadows, as well as Vali the Oath Guard from behind. Kill Vali, and he'll drop the Scroll.

The Plains - Nornir Chest 2[]

Prerequisite: Nighttime
Type: Idol

The second Nornir Chest in The Plains is found at the North-Western corner of the region, however getting to it requires some setup first. To start, it must be nighttime: this allows you to open a gate North of the main lake. You can find a Celestial Altar to change the time of day nearby. Once you've done that, the gate will further be guarded by an Ogre. Once you've defeated it, head through the gate and down the explosive plant-laden path until you come to a split: take the left-hand path. If you've not been down here before, you'll have to face down two Seidr Shadows and a nasty Traveller known as Vali the Oath Guard. When they've been killed, head to the corner to the left of the Coffin and look below: you should see a Scorn Pole laying gas all over the entry gate. Throw your Leviathan Axe at it to remove this hazard. With that done, return to the first gate, then head right: you should vault over a fallen stone pillar, then drop down a cliff into a clearing. On the right is another gate: since you froze the Scorn Pole with the Leviathan Axe, you can safely open it. On the other side, you'll be fighting Seidr Reavers and Shadows, and a Viken, all backed up by more Scorn Poles. Luckily they're the Seidr-buffing variety and not the gas-laying ones. Once you've killed the Seidr, it's time to smash the Nornir Chest's rune idols. The F Rune is located on the Western wall of the area, on top of a rock formation. The R Rune is found inside the trunk of a tree close to the entry gate. The N Rune is found close to the Nornir Chest itself: freeze the nearby Scorn Pole, then check behind the wooden bust statue to find it.

The Plains - Lore 2 - Apology[]

Type: Lore Marker

The second Nornir Chest in The Plains is found at the North-Western corner of the region, specifically the same area as the Nornir Chest described above. Once you've killed the Seidr here, you'll find the Lore Marker close to the entryway, on the opposite side as the Scorn Pole.

The Plains - Odin’s Raven 5[]

Prerequisite: Nighttime

The fifth and final Raven in the Plains is found in the arena where you fight the local dragon, The Crimson Dread, in the Western half of the region. However, you can only access this area once you've set the time of day to night using a Celestial Altar. Once you've done that, head through the gate North of the main lake, then take a right at the split and squeeze through the tight space. Once you've squeezed through the passage, you'll now be in The Crimson Dread's arena lair. From the entryway, follow the left-hand wall and you'll quickly encounter the Raven perched above a small pit.

The Plains - Yggdrasil Rift 2[]

Prerequisite: Nighttime
Rewards:
- Weapon Upgrade - Gale Spark
- Lindwyrm Scales
- Dust of Realms
- Hacksilver

This Yggdrasil Rift is found in the arena where you fight the dragon known as The Crimson Dread, in the North-Western part of the region. To enter here, it must be nighttime (unless you've been here before and can thus access the Mystic Gateway). Once you've arrived, check the North-Eastern corner of the arena to find the rift. If you've been keeping up, this will be the final location for The Lost Lindwyrms Favor, giving you a Gale Spark!

The Plains - Seasonal Stag 1[]

The Winter Stag, Durapror, is found at The Overgrown Tower, which is where you fight the dragon called The Crimson Death. You can initially only access this area at night, but once you've accessed the Mystic Gateway in the upper area, you can return to this area at any time of day you choose. Durapror will be close to the Mystic Gateway, at the base of a tree overlooking the frozen lightning bolt.

The Plains - Seasonal Stag 2[]

The Spring Stag, Dainn, is listed in The Plains, however it is NOT in the main outdoor area. Instead Dainn is actually within the Wishing Well, a room that connects The Sinkholes and The Jungle together in the middle. You can reach it either via the Crag Jaw arena in The Sinkholes to the East, or XXX in The Jungle to the West. However you arrive here, you can find the Spring Stag atop the cliffs on the Eastern wall of the Wishing Well, close to the route that leads West to The Jungle.

The Plains - Lore 3 - The Lost Pages 4[]

Type: Lost Page
Unlocks: Hilt of Tyrfing

This piece of Lore, a Lost Page, is found in the Wishing Well, a section of The Plains that connects The Jungle to the West and The Sinkholes to the East. You can reach it either via the Crag Jaw arena in The Sinkholes, or the tunnel in The Jungle's Eastern riverbank. Once you've arrived here, climb up to the cliffs on the Northern wall, where you'll find a broken gate you can vault through. Ahead on your left will be the Lost Page. The Lost Page unlocks the Hilt of Tyrfing, which drains Kratos’ health and releases a shockwave, with the shockwave's strength based on the amount of health drained.

Spirit Mementos 3 - Stein[]

Prerequisites:
- Complete the Return of the River Favor
- Nighttime

This Artifact is another two-parter that's part of a local Favor. It's unique however in that it's the only one where the second half is found in a different region from the first. You'll also need to complete the Return of the River Favor and set the time of day to night to find the second half. To find the first half, head to The Jungle and make your way to the top of the dam using the lift. At the top, slip through the crack on the right-hand wall of the dam (you may have to reveal it by blowing up the yellow Wind Fissure with the Draupnir Spear). On the other side, head all the way left to find the first half. For the Artifacts second half, make sure you complete the Return of the River Favor here at the top of the dam if you haven't done that yet. You should also set the time of day to night if it isn't right now: you can do that at a Celestial Altar on the South-Eastern riverbank. Row all the way North until you're back in The Plains, then head West until you reach the end of the river. Here, go North and drop into the Drakki den. If you haven't been here already, you'll have to defeat it before you do anything else. Once the coast is clear, look for a doorway that leads under the local Celestial Altar. To the left of the Altar and a bit down the wall will be the other half of the Artifact.

The Plains - Lore 5 - Stupidity[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Type: Lore Marker

The last Lore in The Plains is found in the raised Seidr Camp just South of the Western Celestial Altar. Getting here however requires you to complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle region to the South. This turns the canyons into rivers, letting you access this area. Once you've got your river in place, head to the South-Western point and dock the boat on the beach. Here on your left will be a cliff face with a grapple point on top: you'll have to use the lower one to the left of it in order to make it up. At the top of the cliff will be a Coffin on the left, and a zipline on the right. Use the zipline to get to the Seidr camp. Once you've cleared the area of Seidr, and looted the Coffin here, check the Eastern area of the camp to find the Lore Marker.

- Lvl 7 Bergsra
- Lvl 8 Bergsra
Rewards:
- 2 Luminous Alloy

Once you've done that, dock at the island and check the Northern tip of the island for the Treasure Map.

The Plains - Lore 4 - A Scar is Born[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Type: Treasure Map

This piece of Lore is located on the small Southern island with two columns that separates the East and West halves of The Plains. The only way to get to it is if you complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle, which turns the canyon into a river. Once you've done that, dock at the island and check the Northern tip of the island for the Treasure Map.

The Plains - Yggdrasil’s Dew 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Boost: +2 Strength

The lone Yggdrasil's Dew in The Plains is at the Northern-most point of the river that divides the East and West halves of the region. If you have a canyon instead, you'll need to complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle region to the South. This turns the canyons into rivers, letting you do the dew.

The Plains - Draugr Hole 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Rewards:
- Weapon Upgrade - Chaos Spark
- Sovereign Coals
- Dust of Realms
- Hacksilver

The only Draugr Hole in The Plains is found in the North-Western corner of the region. Reaching it requires you to complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle region to the South. This turns the canyons into rivers, letting you row over to the dock here and challenge The Hateful. If you've been keeping up with your Draugr Holes, this will be the last one.

The Plains - Buried Treasure 1 - A Scar is Born[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Rewards:
- Amulet Enchantment - Asgard's Justice
- 4 Asgardian Ingots
- 4 Luminous Alloy
- 4 Petrified Bones

Kvasir’s Poems 12 - An Organization: In The Future[]

Prerequisite: Nighttime
References: The Order: 1886This Artifact is found in The Jungle region of Vanaheim, which is part of the more arid Northern half of the realm. To get here, you'll need to set the time of day to night; you can do this by finding one of the Celestial Altars in one of the elevated Seidr-controlled spots. They have a stone tower above them. Once you've done this, head directly South of the Celestial Altar in the Western half of The Plains. You'll want to cross over to the opposite side to the South, but how you get there depends on if you've got a river or not:

If you've not done the Return of the River Favor and released the dam's waters, you'll have to cross over using a rock bridge that spans the chasm. If this is your only option, you'll have to do it at night, otherwise the road to the rock bridge will be blocked by a wall of plants.
If you have done the Return of the River Favor, there'll be a river here instead. To cross, you'll have to get in the boat and row over to the shore here. If you can do this, you won't have to go at night.

Once you're across, head through the tunnels until you come to a large gap. Cross over it by climbing the ruined wall on your left: once across, the Artifact will be in the back-right corner at the feet of a warrior.

The Jungle - Lore 1 - Unforgiven[]

Type: Lore Marker

This Lore Marker is found at the top of the dam in The Jungle. After taking the lift up, defeat any Seidr who may be around, then jump across the gaps. After the second gap, it'll be on your right, next to a yellow glowing plant acting as a light source.

The Jungle - Nornir Chest 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Type: Switch

This Nornir Chest is found in the Southern part of The Jungle near the Celestial Altar, meaning to access it, you need to complete the Return of the River Favor first, allowing you to row across. Once you've done this, the Nornir Chest will be directly ahead from where you dock the boat on the shore. The E Rune's spinner switch is found to the right of the Nornir Chest, up a ruin and close to where you start the Casualty of War: The Toy Favor. Hit it once on the left-hand paddle to spin it to the E Rune. The N Rune's spinner is close to the nearby Celestial Altar. Standing there, face East towards the wall you can leap up, then look to the left of it. You should spot some Red Fungi Bramble you can burn down. Once you've done so, hit it once on the right-hand paddle to spin the switch to the curved N Rune. The B Rune is located on top of the building that houses the Celestial Altar. It'll be on the Eastern side; you can reach it from the ground, but you may find it easier to hit it from up the ledge instead. Hit it once on the left-hand paddle to spin it to the B Rune.

Spirit Mementos 5 - Child's Toy[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor

This Artifact is a two-parter, where you find half in one location and half in another. It requires using a boat, meaning you must have completed the Return of the River Favor in the area. Once you've done that, dock the boat at the beach where the Celestial Altar and Mystic Gateway are, then check the Western corner for half of the Artifact. You'll pick up the Casualties of War: The Toy Favor as you do. The other half of the Artifact is in the area where you fight the two Ogres. To get there, you can either go through the back of the local ruins, or head North up the river and take a right to go around the Ogre area itself. Once you've slipped through the gap (and defeated the Ogres if you haven't already), check to the right of the giant ring (which has two dragons facing away, the spirit's clue) to find the other half of the Artifact.

The Jungle - Yggdrasil's Dew 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Boosts: +2 Defense

This Yggdrasil Seed is, like all others, above a river, but in the case of The Jungle, that means you must complete the Return of the River Favor first. Once you've done this, hop into a boat and sail to the South-East corner of the area. You'll find the Yggdrasil Seed hiding behind a stone pillar, behind the ruins where you fight the Ogre and the local dragon, The Corpse Eater.

The Jungle - Odin’s Raven 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor

The single Odin's Raven in The Jungle is over where the Ogre is in the North-East corner of the region. That means that you'll have to complete the Return of the River Favor, flooding the chasms into rivers and allowing you to row to the South of where the Ogre is. From there you can enter the arena: check the Southern wall to find the Raven perched on partway up it.

The Jungle - Legendary Chest 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Contains: Spear Light Runic Attack - Whisper of the World

This Legendary Chest is found among the ruins in the Eastern side of The Jungle. This means that the only way of getting to it is to complete the Return of the River Favor and then row across in a boat. Start by going to the shore with the Celestial Altar and the Mystic Gateway. From the Celestial Altar, head East up the wall, then follow the path right, down the short drop and then left through the ruins. You'll then leap through the ruins using various grapple points, until you get to a safe ledge. One the ledge, face North-East to spot the Red Fungi Bramble, which is covering a grapple point you can use to get over to the chest. Look for a spot of the ceiling that's close to you, then set up a chain of enlarged Hex Bubbles so you can set them off with a Blazing Surge. The chest contains a Light Runic Attack for the Draupnir Spear: Whisper of the World. This pulls enemies inwards before throwing them away in the direction Kratos is facing.

The Jungle - Seasonal Stag 1[]

Prerequisites:
- Complete the Return of the River Favor
- Daytime

This Seasonal Stag has two requirements before you can reach it. First, you must complete the Return of the River Favor, which allows you to explore the South-Eastern half of the area via boat. Second, you need to find the Celestial Altar in that area and change the time to day. Once you've done that, head to the dock in the North-Eastern corner of The Jungle that lets you slip through to the area where you fight the Ogres. Directly across from the entry point are vines with two grapple points: one to pull down a blocking wall, and another to get across the gap back to the North-Western side of The Jungle. Once you've grappled across the gap, you'll find the Summer Stag, Dvallin, straight ahead.

The Jungle - Lore 2 - City of Possibility[]

Prerequisites:
- Complete the Return of the River Favor
- Daytime
Type: Rune Read

This Lore has the same requirements as the Seasonal Stag described just above, and can be reached from its location too. Once you're at the Stag's location, head down the path, where you'll have to make your way around a chasm via a long U-Turn whilst dodging spitter vine plants. When you jump across the chasm for the first time, make sure to kick down the gold chain. When you jump across the chasm a second time, keep an eye out on your right for a stone wall: you'll be able to slip through here to get to a Drake's lair. In the middle of the lair is a circular Vanir-made pit. Drop down it to wind up in the bottom of a cage. To get out, turn around to spot a wooden spinner: hit the left-hand side with the Leviathan Axe to turn it and raise the cage momentarily. Once you're out, the Runes will be on the right-hand side of the stone wall where the wooden spinner was.

The Jungle - Legendary Chest 2[]

Prerequisites:
- Complete the Return of the River Favor
- Daytime
Contains: Amulet Fragment - Jewel of Yggdrasil

This Legendary Chest is found in the same spot as the Lore described above. It'll be between the lowering cage, Once you're out, the Legendary Chest will be in the corridor leading to the exit gate.

The Sinkholes - Nornir Chest 1[]

Type: Torch

The first Nornir Chest in The Sinkholes is found at the beginning of the level. After taking the zipline down from The Plains, turn around and head forwards to find it in a small shaded area. The C Rune's torch will be to the right of the chest, sitting above a small pond. The N Rune's torch is to the left of the chest, on a cliff overlooking a battle area below. In order to reach it, you'll have to set up a chain of enlarged Hex Bubbles using Sigil Arrows, which you can then set off with a Blazing Surge. The R Rune's Torch is found on the cliff above the Nornir Chest. Climb up the first ledge nearby as if you were returning to The Plains, then make a U-Turn to the left and look up: the torch will be visible high above. You can use another Hex Bubble Chain to reach it.

The Sinkholes - Lore 1 - Everything Ends[]

Type: Lore Marker

The lone Lore in The Sinkholes can be found early on in the region. Take the zipline down from The Plains, then head right and through the tunnel with the Scorn Plant. On the other side, make a U-Turn to the right to find a Seidr camp: defeat the Shadow, Viken and Revenant here, then check to the right of the stone archway to find the Lore Marker.

The Sinkholes - Seasonal Stag 3[]

The Autumnal Stag, Duneyrr, is found in The Sinkholes. He'll be very close to the Mystic Gateway at the Sinkholes Entrance, where the river is (or chasm, if you haven't unblocked the dam in The Jungle yet).

Kvasir’s Poems 11 - Eastern Specter[]

This Artifact is found in The Sinkholes, one of the more arid regions in the Northern half of Vanaheim. You cannot visit this area until you complete the Creatures of Prophecy main quest. It's found in the arena where you fight the Crag Jaw: to get there, climb up the wall next to the Mystic Gateway at The Sinkholes’ entrance at the river, then head through the tunnels. Once you're there and have defeated the Crag Jaw, head for the North-Western corner of the arena and look for the Red Fungi Bramble: destroy it with a Hex Bubble and Blazing Surge combo. Slip through the gap, then head left, then right to go up the stairs. The Artifact will be at the top, at the feet of a dead warrior.

The Sinkholes - Yggdrasil’s Dew 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Boost: +2 Vitality

This Yggdrasil's Dew is, like most others, found above a river. However until you complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle, there won't be any. Once you've got the river in place, you'll find the dew by going to the Mystic Gateway for The Sinkholes Entrance, then rowing South-West: you'll go around a bend and find the dew on the left-hand wall as you approach the gate.

Berserker Gravestone - Haklangr the Bearded[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor

This Berserker Gravestone is found in The Sinkholes, however you cannot access it until you complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle, which restores the rivers and opens up more areas to explore. As well, you'll need to open up a gate that allows access to the South-Eastern area of The Sinkholes where the flower is. To do that, go to the Mystic Gateway for The Sinkholes Entrance and climb into the tunnel above it. You'll emerge in the right spot: after fending off the dragon, head right and use the chain to lower the gate. Once you've done this, return to the Mystic Gateway, grapple across the river, then hop in the boat and row for the circular area where the dragon first attacked. The Gravestone will be in the circular area in the middle of the river; you can dock to the East of it and then jump across.

The Sinkholes - Starblush[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor

This Flower is found in The Sinkholes, specifically in the same area as the Berserker Gravestone described above. From the Celestial Altar, face the river, go South-West, and you'll find the flower as you approach the gateway.

Across the Realms - Bantam Melon[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor

This Across the Realms ingredient is found in the same area as the Berserker Gravestone and Across the Realms ingredient described above. At the Celestial Altar, face the river, then head North-East and use the chain to lower the second gate. Jump forward across the gap, then left across the river to find the Bantam Melon.

Spirit Mementos 4 - Hourglass[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor

This Spirit Memento can technically be started as soon as you can get to The Sinkholes the earliest. However you cannot find the other half of it until you complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle, which allows you to complete it. Once you've done this, head to the Mystic Gateway for The Sinkholes Entrance and then head down the tunnel above it. When you emerge outside, head right, lower the gate if you need to, then jump the gap and go right where you'll go back inside. Here, freeze the Scorn Pole with the Leviathan Axe so that you can proceed through the gap on the right. Around the corner from here will be the first half of the Artifact! You'll now have two ways to continue forward:

If you've already raised both gates in the circular area you passed through earlier, you can get to the boat by going to the North-East end, jumping across the river, then going to the dock near the Celestial Altar.
If you haven't raised both gates in the circular area, you'll have to backtrack back through both tunnels and then grapple across the river near the Mystic Gateway to return to the boat. Find the dock in the circular area so you can lower the North-Eastern gate blocking the way.

Once you're through, head for the beach North-West of the tunnel's entrance and dock there. Head through the gate; if this is your first time here, you'll have to deal with both Draugr and dragon fire. At the end of the tunnels you'll block the dragon with debris and have to climb up the right-hand wall to escape. Instead of doing that, check the end of the tunnel to find the other half of the Artifact.

The Sinkholes - Odin’s Raven 1[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor

The lone Odin's Raven in The Sinkholes is found in the area where you encounter and fight the local dragon, The Ash Tyrant. Because of this, getting to it requires completing the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle, which restores the rivers and allows you to more fully explore the region. Once you've opened the way to The Ash Tyrant's lair, you may spot the Odin's Raven up on the left-hand wall. You have two approaches here:

Head North-East and dock at the shore, then make a U-Turn around the rock to a chain that lowers the gate. From here you can hit the Raven, but only with the Draupnir Spear: it flies straight for a few seconds before it drops.
Alternatively, head up to The Ash Tyrant's arena and go to the South-West edge. You can then nail the Odin's Raven from here, even with the Leviathan Axe.

The Sinkholes - Nornir Chest 2[]

Prerequisite: Complete the Return of the River Favor
Type: Totem

The second Nornir Chest in The Sinkholes is found just before the lair of the local dragon, The Ash Tyrant. As a result, reaching it means you must first complete the Return of the River Favor in The Jungle, which restores the rivers and allows you to more fully explore the region. Once you've done this, the Nornir Chest will be under a tree overlooking the river below, just before you climb up to the arena. The B Rune's totem is located on the white pillar that you need to climb to get up to The Ash Tyrant's arena, at least when you first arrive here. The E Rune is found on top of a square stone column to the right of the Nornir Chest, close to the gold chain down to the docks below. The T Rune is found at the Northern edge of this area, on a ledge of the dirt cliff on the right.
