The Strond is the entrance of this realm, and to find the first Nornir Chest, advance up the cliffs and stick to the left edge of the cliff face. You can look over a ledge and spot the first chest.

The Strond Nornir Chest 2
The second Nornir Chest will be found further up the main pathway. After advancing through the road, you will encounter a Nornir Chest out in the open, with a blocked-off cave. The first time you enter this region, you won’t have the power to open it.
The first rune is located to your southeast if you’re standing directly in front of the chest and facing it. Turn around and see it resting on top of some rocks.
The second rune will be located to the right of the first but elevated on a ridge. Reference the image below to see it.
After you activate the second rune. Advance towards the gap before the Temple of Light entrance. Before jumping across the gap, look to the right to find the third and final rune.
