Follow our guide to complete the Plague Trial in Senua's Saga: Hellblade II. Learn how to solve illusion puzzles, find Lorestones, and escape the fire monster.
Walkthrough
- 1From the Barnstokkr Tree, jump down to the left to find the Plague Trial shard.
- 2Follow the path, jump off the pier into the water, and enter the flooded house.
- 3Continue through the swampy water until you reach a stone arch. Walk to the right of it and look through to make debris disappear.
- 4Proceed to a broken bridge. Continue past it to a wood watchtower.
- 5Ahead is another stone archway. Go behind it and look through to see a wood fence disappear, allowing access to the other side of the watchtower.
- 6Find the third stone archway. Before using it, look behind it to find Lorestone ᚢ (1/2).
- 7Look through the third archway to clear a doorway in a wooden fence. Go through the arch, then return to the previous arch to bring back the fence and a staircase to the watchtower.
- 8Climb the watchtower, cross the bridge, and look right to align the shattered bridge pieces, repairing it.
- 9Cross the repaired bridge and enter the house.
- 10Inside, locate the Rune Door on the left. Do NOT activate it yet. Find Lorestone ᛋ (2/2) on the opposite side of the building. Activating the Rune Door will make this Lorestone inaccessible.
- 11When ready, focus on the Rune Door to activate it. You will be teleported to a maze with a pursuing fire monster.
- 12Navigate the maze, avoiding the fire. The red line on the map can guide you, but be prepared to adapt if paths are blocked.
- 13Runes appear as holes in the wooden walls. Focus on the correct shape to collect them.
- 14Dillion's light, reflected in puddles on the floor, will guide you to the Runes and eventually back to the Rune Door. Follow the light.
- 15After collecting all three Runes, follow Dillion's light back to the Rune Door to exit the maze.
Tips
- The Plague Trial is recommended to be done last due to its chronological placement in the story and Lorestone progression.
- Be very careful not to activate the Rune Door before collecting the second Lorestone, as it becomes missable.
- In the maze, prioritize avoiding the fire monster. If it gets too close, Senua will catch fire and die.
- Pay attention to the reflections of Dillion's light in the water to navigate the maze effectively.
