Some Yggdrasil Seeds are given to you throughout the main story. You’re first Yggdrasil Seed is given to you by everybody’s favorite dwarves, Brok and Sindri, shortly after completing the prologue. You will travel to realms such as Svartalheim as part of the campaign, but other seeds must be discovered on your own.

One of the first Favours you can start while exploring the Dwarven realm Svartalheim is called the Crucible. It’s a quest that involves you finding two Yggdrasil Seeds to unlock the fiery arena in Muspelheim. A handful of realms will remain locked until you discover their corresponding Yggdrasil Seed and use it while visiting a Mystic Gateway.

These essential items are finite but can’t be wasted, so feel free to use them as you discover them. Every Yggdrasil Seed needed to unlock a realm housing a story quest will be given to you when the time is right. Any extra seeds you collect can be used freely to open the world they belong to.
