I Solved the FINAL MYSTERY in the Norse Saga

The Collector. Who is he? No really, who IS he? If you've played God of War Valhalla, you may have come across a glyph named "Memories of the Collector" which claims that the "memories of the Collector are sealed within...". But who actually is the Collector, and why does he matter?
In this video, I'll go over my theory regarding the mystery of the glyph named "Memories of the Collector" and discuss who exactly he is.

People have pointed out that Dwarves go to the light of alfheim after they die. And that's true, but i just don't know how to reconcile how the Mystical Heirloom symbol can be in Valhalla. Its not like its a memory of Kratos, because it doesn't do the same thing it does in the main game. Maybe Alviss was a special case in which the Valkyries took him to Valhalla for all his hard work in capturing monsters. But you guys are tight that Dwarves go to the light of alfheim, i guess i should have spent some time on that on the video given that its the biggest hurdle in the theory 😂

In Midgard there is an alive troll that you can fight quite early in the game before discovering the heirloom. The troll is relatively nearby the area we find the dead Dwarf. Which makes sense that this Dwarf activated the troll and then got killed

A fun easter egg that I'm just putting here in case someone doesn't know, the clip that Kuba used to show the use of mystic heirloom, showed two trolls, Golrab of the ashes and the frost. Here one might think what does Golrab refer to, maybe something norse, but as Eric Williams revealed, it's just 'Barlog' spelled backwards.

Tyr is the Collector, he traveled to different mythologies and collected different things from there, like weapons he uses in bossfights or other stuff from his temple, like vase with a picture of Kratos

There are more statues that either go missing or awaken after you get the Black Rune in GoW2018: namely, the statues near Sindri's workshop at the Foothills of the Mountain, and another one next to one of the Realm Towers (can't remember which one exactly) which you can actually fight

Prometheus, Helios and Rhea (mother of Zeus) are titans, yet they are human-sized, while Cronos, Gaia and others are colossal. The real questions here: 1) Is there an explanation, why some Titans are as big as mountains, while some are identical to humans. 2) HOW did Rhea and Cronos… made Zeus? How big is Cronos’ package? Is that the reason, why Titan’s crotch is so…empty?

[@mark89_zetor71]

If you look at all Cronos scenes, there's no package, so maybe that's a sort of magic.

Maybe the Collector is like the other gods on the Higher Plane of Existence? Maybe the Collector just goes around collecting items from all kinds of people and gods who are important enough to have their history kept alive. Also Question, since Kratos traveled back in time on GOW 2 at the end when he brings the Titans to attack Olympus, did all the people he kill previously to reach the Sisters of Fate (Thesius, Perseus, Icarus and etc.) are technically alive?

I still want to know why you can hear odins ravens in Valhalla. I could be wrong, but they sound like huginn and muninn. I also tried looking around to try and possibly see them but I didn't see any ravens but you can definitely hear their "caws." It could mean nothing of course but I was just curious if there was possible hidden lore there lol.

[@gentlesavage2068]

yo kaptain kuba off topic question in norse mythology loki has 2 brothers named helblindi and byeleistr, do you think we could ever see them in future god of war games, if kratos has more children with another person?

[@hannahbrown187]

Not a theory per se, but I’m currently replaying Ragnarok and post-Valhalla something clicked into place for me. When Odin “blesses” the einherjar who’ve just entered Asgard he says something along the lines of “they come out of Valhalla a little foggy.” Befire this they’re calm and stoic. After, they have the black mark around their eyes and gleefully leap into violent combat. It seems like while Odin couldn’t mess with Valhalla or it’s process directly, he figured out a way to erase the experience from their minds or brainwash them somehow.

Has anyone noticed how the weapons used by the Delos warriors are no different from the Draupnir spear. Even the moves sets.

[@michaeldragonblood6724]

If we assume that the dead dwarf is Alvis, it wouldn't also make sense because why would the dwarfs make a stone memorial despite not finding his body? Plus I have a Big leap of Guess that The Stone Memorial is also Alvis' grave. And like you said, Kuba, that the corpse of that dwarf is possibly a Grave Robber. Meaning he found the Heirloom near the Memorial statue and stole it and went off in Midgard. He maybe is the one that Reanimated that Stone troll near the Bridge to the Entrance of the Mountain back in 2018.

I have a theory about garm. He is a version of vali who is the past son of loki and sigyn who transformed into a wolf and was slain by his brother narfi. I have a theory that vali got cursed by someone(or the demiurge) and killed narfi instead of narfi killing vali and Vali slowly lost his soul and transformed into what garm is today and became the embodiment of chaos. I have a theory that loki fathered him when he was doing some future timetravel and the reason that garm became big is something to do with is godhood and when fenrir was injected into garm it made fenrir the biological son of loki

No. And unless the theory of a Faye DLC happens at some point, they likely won't in the games. It won't be relevant in the next game anymore, probably. So it would eventually be in a book or comic.

​@@Paradox-es3blThat's literally the worst thing about Cory Barlog. He set up the biggest mystery in the series, that's clearly a setup for something in another game, only to not have the guts to actually answer it.

That's the same Dwarf that's in the Prison of Asgard and when you get your first Relic.

[@bydlakbolszewik847]

That's just a generic dwarf model. I think SMS kinda failed with the "Odin dwarf" thing. If they really wanted to highlight its significance, they should have made another model for him, that's not used anywhere else in the game. You can see at least 5 of that same dwarf on the ride through Nidavellir when Odin spits on you, as well as one when Loki goes to Nidavellir with him.
