During your initial visit to this area, certain skills required to access some collectibles won't yet be available.

#1 – Artifact (Kvasir's Poems – Large Society Ground Orb, The Performance)

Once you dock your boat and step into the town, you'll notice a green barrier on the left side near the docks. To destroy it, fire a green arrow at the blockade (aim and press square). Doing so will clear the way and uncover the artifact hidden behind it. If this is your initial visit as part of the story, you'll need to speak with the blacksmith first. He's the next story checkpoint, located just up the path, and he'll provide you with the green arrows needed for this task.

#2 – Lore (Scroll – Shopping List)

Right before reaching the blacksmith's shop, you'll spot a golden lore scroll lying on the ground. It's located in the middle of the market square, just a short distance from the blacksmith.

#3 – Odin's Raven

From the spot where you picked up the Lore Scroll, glance upward. You'll see a Raven perched on a rooftop, just to the left of the blacksmith's shop and near the exit of this area.

#4 – Artifact (Things Left Behind – Griep's Firebomb)

After collecting the previous items, crawl through the tunnel beyond the blacksmith's shop to reach the next area. Once you emerge from the tunnel, turn left and head into another tunnel. You'll find a purple-glowing artifact on the ground inside.

#5 – Legendary Chest (Luminous Recovery Handles – Blades Attachment)

From the location of the last artifact, climb out of the tunnel. As soon as you exit, you'll notice gas or wind emanating from a wooden pillar directly in front of you. To proceed, use the Spear weapon (acquired during Main Mission 10: Forging Destiny) and throw it at the wind in the pillar. This action creates a pathway to climb up. At the top, you'll discover a Legendary Chest waiting for you.

#6 – Lore (Treasure Map – Mining Glory)

Right next to the Legendary Chest, you'll find a yellow-glowing scroll lying on the floor.

#7 – Nine Realms in Bloom (Flower: Sparkthorn)

In the same area, drop down from the Legendary Chest and head downhill until you spot a broken bridge on your left. Above the bridge, you'll notice gas or wind coming out of a wooden chimney. Aim directly across and throw your spear into it to create a path for jumping over the broken bridge. On the other side, you'll find a flower. If this is your first flower, it will begin the Favor "Nine Realms in Bloom," which involves finding all nine flowers.

#8 – Favor: Spirit of Rebellion

This collectible is tied to completing the Favor "Spirit of Rebellion" from Durlin, available after Main Mission 10: Forging Destiny. Durlin offers it at the end of Mission 10, or you can accept it later in the tavern. From the flower collectible, turn around, jump back over the broken bridge, and follow the path with pumpkins to the house at the end; Durlin will still offer the quest after the story.

To complete it, take a boat to Dragon Beach north of Nidavellir, throw a spear at the climbable wall, and cross the bridge at the top. Use the chisel on a blue shrine to reveal glyphs near the statue. Press square on the glyphs to reveal a red chest containing Durlin's hammer. Return it to Durlin to finish the Favor and unlock the "Rebel Leader" trophy. Waypoints are marked with blue icons on the map for easy tracking.

#9 – Berserker Gravestone (Asgard's Fortitude – Amulet Enchantment)

At the northern end of Nidavellir town, locate the Mystic Gateway (marked with a blue icon on the map) and enter it. From there, teleport to the Mystic Gateway at Svartalfheim > Nidavellir Beach, which becomes available during Mission 10: Forging Destiny. After stepping out of the portal, you'll see the Berserker Gravestone directly in front of you.

To interact with this Gravestone, you'll need the story item "Inert Hilt of Skofnung," which is automatically obtained during Mission 9: The Word of Fate. Once you activate the Gravestone, you'll face the boss "Hardrefill the Callous." Defeat this boss to complete the challenge associated with the Gravestone.
