Once you reach chapter 2, you will reach the destroyed settlement. There are three runes you need to locate and solve the puzzle before you can head further inside.
Location 1
Explore the abandoned village till you come across a corpse tied to the gate. It will start glowing red, so that is where the puzzle starts. You have to memorize the symbols and match them to the poles scattered across the village. The first pole can be found right in front of the corpse. You can use the abandoned house on the left side to gain a vantage point. Just follow the path to the right of the house to enter through the back, then climb up the ladder. At the end of the platform, look around to find the first symbol and focus on it to lock in
Location 2
If you look just a little further, you will find the second pole with a corpse tied to it. Jump down from the ledge and make your way left. Turn right at the end of the road and keep going till you reach the second corpse pole. Again focus on the pole and align the symbol to solve the second puzzle
Location 3
For the final puzzle, turn around and enter the house that is second on the right. There is another exit that leads out of the house and to the other side of the village. Turn left and follow the path uphill into the broken structure ahead. Exit through the back, turn right, and keep following the path to the right. You will soon spot the final pole
Once you have focused on all three poles, head back to the main gate to complete the ruined settlement puzzle in Hellblade 2. If you like this guide you can check out our other guides as well
