The Draugr’s Grimoire

Hunt the Mark, Earn Your Rings

Every episode’s artwork in the fan app hides the Draugr’s bind-rune. Oath Rings go only to those who prove they looked and listened.

1. Find the mark

Tap the exact spot where the bind-rune hides on the episode’s cover art. Miss three times and it starts to shimmer, mocking you.

2. Finish the nightmare

Watch the episode all the way through in the app. Skipping to the end does not count. The Draugr knows.

3. Claim your rings

Do both and +10 Oath Rings are yours. Climb from Karl to Einherji, unlock sealed lore, and vote in the weekly poll.
