The spinning rune seals are dotted all around the area though. In the area of the Mountain you reach after solving the stag statue riddle, there’s the first Mountain Nornir chest. Of course, once you’re ready you’ll be able to head into the mountain itself, where two Nornir chests are hiding.ġ. Leap across the gap, grab your wind and fling it into the rune spinner on that level, again waiting until the runes align before returning the wind to the centre. Jump back across the platforms to the left of the chest, and climb to the topmost one. Clamber up to the chest again, and take the wind from the centre the rune spinner on the same level as the chest until it matches the rune on the box, then put the wind back in the centre again. Then put the wind on the orb in the centre of this area. Move the wind to the rune spinner on the previous platform, and line it up with one of the runes on the chest. Go back up to the chest itself and leap over to the furthest platform on the left where you’ll see your wind.
Then go around the other side of the gate through the island to grab the wind, and then place it in the holding orb to the left by the other big gate. Go to the big gate near the dock, drop hit and use your axe to break the plants inside in one shot. But when you do the Nornir chest is in the centre of the area. Yay! It goes without saying that you’ll need to have the winds of hell before you can attempt this one. This one requires a bit of manoeuvring, some running and a lot of wind. It’s then just a case of matching the runes on the wind turbine and the axe-powered spinner to the ones on the chest. If you want to check which runes you need to hit, put the wind on the holding point behind the chest. Grab the wind from the ruins and move it to the fallen rune pillar back towards the chest, at which point the runes will spin. Then head back up to the ledge where the chest is and go all the way to the end. On the right hand side is the wind source, so take it and move it over to the left hand side of the ruins. But you’ll actually need to start down by the turtle at the ruins.
The chest is up on the ledge opposite the turtle’s head in the Witch’s Woods. This one’s a little bit more complicated and not even solvable until you’ve got the winds of hell at your fingertips. And the third is in the small room behind the exploding red vines.ĥ. Another nestled underneath the bridge leading to the Witch’s Cave door. There’s one in the wall in the well you climb to reach the Witch’s Wood again. When you’ve got them, you’ll be able to access every one of the runes required to unlock it. There’s a Nornir chest in the basement of the Lower Levels of the Witch’s Cave, that you won’t be able to solve until you’ve got the Blades of Chaos. I recommend going for the third first and then the last two.Ĥ. There’s one directly behind the chest, another to the left and the third is directly on the other side of the arena. For this one you need to hit all three rune bells in quick succession to unlock the chest. After you’ve fought your very first giant troll, take a moment to spot the Nornir chest that’s lurking in the same battle arena. Stand on the central platform and then raise it up an axe hit or two, then head over to hit the rune that’s hidden behind the wooden plank on the other side.ģ. The first rune is in the cave on the opposite side, the second is behind the central platform and only visible when it’s dropped. The best way to tackle it is to make your way through the puzzle and then drop the central spike panel so you can run along its wooden top as you come back on yourself. The chest itself is easy to spot, but the runes very much less so.

It’s hard to forget the River Pass’s series of spike traps, especially because it hides away the solution to a Nornir treasure. It’s actually on the other side of the bridge, so drop both halves and it’s embedded in a rock on the other side.Ģ. There’s one up in the darkness to the left of the chest another perched on the cliffs behind you and to the left, and the third is the trickiest. However, the seals are fairly well hidden. As you make your way through the fortified part of the map near your home, you’ll come across another Nornir chest just by following the journey’s path, it’s pretty hard to miss.
