Illusion Trial (Left Gate)
How to Get All Lorestone Collectibles in Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice
The Illusion and Fire Trials can be done in any order. Go right and you’ll head to the Fire Trial where Surtr awaits, go Left and you’ll be in the Illusion Trial. If you happened to go right first, just head to the next section of this guide, then come back when you’re finished with that.
5 – Once you enter this area head up the hill towards the ruins and search to the right.
6 – Continue on until you reach a large locked gate. There’s an illusion gate to the left (use your focus) that leads to a new path. Follow it, taking out and avoiding enemies as necessary, until you eventually reach a few more of these gates, one of which will leave you in front of a huge castle. Go through and you’ll be able to enter the castle and unlock the two doors inside (make sure to unlock both). Now, go back outside of the castle (lots of backtracking, we know) and reenter through one of the doors you unlocked. Go upstairs, and cross the wooden beam to grab this collectible. Phew, that was a tough one.
7 – After you face the second group of enemies in this area it will be right in front of you on your path to continue.
8 – Right after getting Lorestone #7, continue to the next area and search the back, right section.
9 – Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice’s story will eventually have you investigate a large gate. After doing this, turn around and use the middle illusion gate to fix a broken bridge. Cross that bridge and activate the drawbridge that you come across. This leads to another gate that lets you into a castle. Look for a small cave you can crawl into for this Lorestone.
