You have to go around the forest to reach Candletop Lighthouse.

Elkwood Forest is not as dense nor as dangerous as Blackbriar Forest (to the north) but it is nor an easy place to travel through. So, let’s take a quick tour of Avalon, starting due south:Ĭandletop Lighthouse and Elkwood Forest - This is where the Gil-Gamesh’s family first arrive on Avalon. Thanks to artist Amy Kruzan (follow on Instagram at fantasygraphicsbya) you can follow the adventures of the Gil-Gamesh and the rest of the MoonDrake family, from the dragon isle of Emmyr in the northwest, eastward across the Fenris Mountains to Merlin’s Pinnacle, and south to New Camelot. Plus, having the option to fast travel in God of War as you please makes things so much easier.For the first time in more than 20 years, you can actually see the island of Avalon as I mapped it out in my mind when I started writing the Forever Avalon series. Sure, you can explore even before that, but it’s easier if you have everything you need on hand. Given the fact that you need certain powers to open different chests and solve some puzzles, and that different areas of the Lake of Nine unlock as you push through the story, my advice is to complete the main story before you go into full exploration mode. Kratos will then step into the realm between realms, and you can walk around or sit still for a while until the next gate opens, transporting you to where you wanted to go. The first one you’ll encounter is in Temple of Tyr, and Brok will explain how they work. To fast travel in God of War, you have to approach and activate one of the Mystic Gates. Listen to what Brok has to tell you he’ll let you know when full fast travel unlocks. Later on, proper fast travel between all Mystic Gates will become available. Initially, fast travel will only be able to get you to the Temple of Tyr. However, this won’t truly unlock until you push further into the game. You can freely explore the world to your heart’s content. The first way is the most obvious: going on foot / by boat. There are several ways that you can revisit areas in God of War.
