Hope this guide helped you out.

Back on the beach, head toward the mountain and up the stairs; open the door to enter Helheim.

Focus the lore stone [35/44] inside to learn more about Sigurd, then head left or right and open the door where Garm resides, a great beast guarding Helheim.

Crawl underneath the broken gate and walk toward the second one; go underwater and quickly move toward the light, resting there until the noise stops. Repeat this process until you reach the fire; grab a torch, then turn around and light all torches in the area then find the room off to the side. Light the torch and push on through toward the blue light. Light the torch there too and focus toward the wooden beams and the water to trace the first rune.

Next, head up the stairs, then up a second set of stairs at the top. Before exiting, take a peek to the left of the next door to find another lore stone [37/44]. Enter the next room and light the torch, then focus the symbol on the wall to find the second rune. Open the door nearby then take a left; keep going straight until you see a stairway leading downward into an unlit room, where Northmen will appear. Fight them, then pick up your torch and light all torches in the room. Ascend the small stairs then focus the ground below to trace the final rune.

Head back to the rune door and open it, at which point the beast will appear and chase you. Run until you fall and drop your focus medallion. Shimmy across the ledge toward the open gate; grab the torch nearby and proceed straight ahead, then take a left to find another rune door.

Fight the Northmen that appear, then head back the way you came, this time taking a right. Look at the broken wood to trace the rune, then head through the previous door; light the torch in the cave then continue across the beam. Take a right in this next room to find a lore stone [38/44] that will teach you about the dragon Fafnir. Then, take a left downstairs, where you'll find another lore stone [39/44], this one teaching you more about Fafnir and Sigmund.

Focus the rune door, then turn around and take the left route, crouching and moving forward until you find a fire pot. Light it, then return to the rune door, this time heading through the waterfall. Take a right and quickly run straight and slightly to the left, knocking down the small bridge. Relight your torch, then turn around, heading toward the waterfall and up the small stairs where you'll light the second torch. Now the rune pattern will be complete: observe it through the gate to trace it. Open the rune door, making sure to relight your torch before you head through. Focus the lore stone [40/44] to learn yet more about Fafnir and how Sigurd killed him.

Continue on through the tunnels until you finally face the beast (Fenrir), which is also the 'shadow' you heard in your head before. At first he'll do little to stop your attacks, but will soon begin to vomit 'darkness'. Ride it out until the light reappears, at which point he will disappear. Search for it, then it will lunge from the shadows. Dodge this attack if you can (or force yourself to get back up if you can't), then go on the offensive. Repeat the process until the beast is slain (seemingly).

Fenrir will have more fight left in him, but you will survive and defeat him in a cutscene. Afterward, you'll learn Fenrir is the monster your father has become.

Head deeper into the mountain; at the bridge, take a left and go up the ladder, then take a right and focus the lore stone [41/44] to learn more about Ragnarok. Go upstairs, then focus the broken bridge to fix one section of it. Turn back around and fight a large group of Northmen. Once defeated, return to the area above the ladder from before, but this time take a left, then a right up two sets of stairs. Focus the bridge below to fix the second section of it.

Walk onto the bridge, then turn around and look toward the doorway. Enter through the doorway; take a right and focus the lore stone [42/44] to learn more about the Ragnarok. Turn back around and crawl into the tunnel, then go up the stairs and take the first door into the room with the Northmen. Defeat them, then peer out over the nearby ledge to completely fix the bridge. Turn around and head up the stairs to find another lore stone [43/44], which will teach you yet more about the Ragnarok and the last battle of the gods.

Take the stairs all the way to bottom into the prison area. Look to your right for an open cell with a lore stone [44/44] inside. Next, unlock the gate on the right pathway, making your way to the bridge. Fight the Northmen that appear. They will do their best to surround you, so make especially great use of evasion and blocking to survive. Head through the gate and approach the mirror to 'let go' of your old self, then through the portal.

Once through the portal, you'll watch your mother burn alive. The 'shadow' (your father) is behind it; learning this sends Senua into a rage. Approach Hela; she will knock you back and send Northmen after you. Once they're defeated, approach her again; this time she will send avatars of the gods after you. Defeat them twice, then approach her yet again. This time she will send an infinite number of Northmen after you. It's not possible to defeat them all.

Next, Hela will 'kill' you, after which you will let Dillion go once and for all, thus concluding the game.
