After finally opening the gate, the two women entered Freyja's Cave, which was a vast stone room. Inside were three large archways carved into the walls, gateways to nowhere that impossibly contained cold fog spilling over stalactites and stalagmites, rubble covered in still-living vines, and a [[Múspellsheimr\|falling river of fire]]. The chamber was flooded in ankle-deep water save for a single stone path to the center, where Odin's Eye rested on a small plinth.<ref name="Cryptic Tutelage"/>		Eivor subsequently traveled to the [[Shrines of the Valkyrie]] scattered throughout England and completed various series of meditation challenges,<ref name="Challenge Gods"/> eventually filling the amulet and bringing it back to Hildiran, who had spent much of her time clearing away the rubble from the door.

	Hildiran quickly spotted the compass and told Eivor to grab it. As the Viking stepped forward, the medallion and the Eye interacted with each other. The spherical artifact's outer shell glowed white and spun as it briefly hovered and projected [[Isu script\|glyphs]], before the amulet's light deactivated it, settling it back in its spot. Hildiran then demanded that Eivor give her the device, saying she would need it to find Odin's Vault, and ~~Eivor~~ begrudgingly complied, handing Hildiran the Eye while she kept the medallion, putting it back in her satchel.<ref name="Cryptic Tutelage"/>		Hildiran quickly spotted the compass and told Eivor to grab it.

			Sometime later, Eivor and Hildiran used the Eye to find Odin's Vault underneath [[Dunwic]] [[fort]], but as its entrance was locked, Hildiran instructed the Viking to travel to more Valkyrie Shrines around England and fill Freya's medallion with energy. After Eivor did so, the two women accessed Odin's Vault, discovering it housed Hildr's armor. At that moment, Hildiran betrayed Eivor, donned the armor, and attempted to kill the Viking to achieve her family's ancestral revenge against Odin, but was defeated. Ultimately, Hildiran was able to reconcile with Eivor after recognizing that she was wiser than Odin, and allowed her to keep both Freya's medallion and Odin's Eye.<ref name="All-Seeing Eye" />
