Kratos strangles the bear until it shape-shifts back to Atreus, who suddenly developed his bear powers from his intense emotions.

While searching for the teen, Kratos and Mimir are attacked by a bear named Bjorn. Kratos dreams about Faye but is awoken by Mimir, who is worried since Atreus hasn't returned home from burying Fenrir.

Kratos accepts and falls asleep at the house. When the duo reach their home, Fenrir, one of their wolves, is close to dying Atreus recites a funerary chant before asking his father to let him grieve for and bury the wolf. In Midgard, three years after Fimbulwinter began, as Kratos and Atreus were returning home after a hunt, they were attacked by Freya, who then failed to kill Kratos.
