Many players are puzzled about whose soul is in Atreus’ Knife in God of War Ragnarok. While playing the game you might notice that his knife feels a bit different. And as you get to the later part of the story you will learn why it is. So in this guide check out whose soul is in Atreus’ Knife in GoW Ragnarok.
Whose Soul is In Atreus’ Knife in God of War Ragnarok?
Atreus’ Knife has the soul of Fenrir in it. Before we get on with the details, there are some spoilers ahead. You should at least complete around 15 minutes to half an hour portion of the starting section of the game. As for the spoilers related to the mid to late game, I’ll not explain them in much detail. So if you are all caught up with a good portion of the game, here is what you should know about the Atreus’ knife.
At the start of the game, Freya attacks Kratos and Atreus. After the duo manages to escape her they reach a point where Fenrir dies in the arms of Atreus. And during the final moments of the wolf, Atreus chants some words. “Sofna, upp fra dessu, sofna hedon, sofna, sofna, sofna…. “. And while he chants these words we can see the wolf’s eyes get white and begin to glow. Eventually, we see the soul leaving the wolf’s body. It gets divided into 4 fragments. While the three of them float away, one of the pieces gets inside Atreus’ Knife. And with it, the wolf passes away.
The thing you need to know is that it wasn’t a mere miracle. Atreus learns from a certain NPC that it was a spell that he used on Fenrir. It allows the caster to take a soul and store it in some object.
