Things left behind are artifacts you can collect in the land of the Dwarves, Svartalfheim. You must collect six Artifacts, called Things Left Behind, in Svartalfheim. These items can be identified with a purple light above each object. You can find a few of these artifacts early on in God of War: Ragnarok. For the others, you will need to explore the Realm and complete a specific side quest. Each of the Things Left Behind Artifacts gives insight into Dwarven life. Finally, people that wish to know more about Svartalfheim will need to finish the collection.

Artifacts

Below are all six artifacts and their locations.

Hreidmar's Brassard - Aurvangar Wetlands

• Dock on the shore, head to the chest, and freeze the geyser to the left.
• Use the Blades of Chaos to climb the cliff and retrieve the Artifact.

Griep's Firebomb - Nidavellir

• Shortly after Sindri upgrades Atreus's arrows, a path can be opened to the other side of Nidavellir.
• After exiting the sewers, there are a few barrels directly to the west that can be broken.
• Follow the path and loot the Firebomb in God of War: Ragnarok.

• The Althjof's Statue is on the left side.
