God of War guide: Volunder Mines walkthrough and collectibles

In God of War, once you’re free to explore all there is to offer on the Lake of Nine, you’ll likely head to the various towers and landmarks shrouded in the mist throughout the body of water. Each of these has various items, enemies and more to explore. We’ll breakdown what you can find at one of these such locations, Volunder Mines, located southeast of Tyr’s Temple.

The very first thing you’ll notice as you dock into this hidden area is a Mystic Gateway back to Brok’s shop. Right upon the beach are two small steps leading into a dark caves. On either side are two corpses which have some hacksilver in them. At the center of the cave is a passage leading into the next area.

Immediately upon passing through, you’ll find a lore stone and a pathway over a small bank of water leading to yet another passage to go through. On the other side is Brok, who upon speaking to him, will give you the Dwarven favor, Second Hand Soul.

Everything worth exploring in the Volunder Mines are detailed in our ”Second Hand Soul: walkthrough and collectibles guide.
