A spinner Nornir Chest requires you to find the three spinners around the chest, then throw your Leviathan Axe (by pressing and holding L2, then pressing R1) at either the left or right target to change the rune displayed on the spinner. In this case, you want to make the spinners show runes for P, F, and C. For the specific location of the chest, you can refer to the map above.

This Spinner is directly up and to the left of the Nornir Chest. Throw your axe at the right spinner target once to reveal the F rune.

If you continue down the path to your left from the first spinner, you'll find a Wulver. Defeat it, then look over the branch blocking your way to see a gazebo on the cliff in front of you. The 'C' Spinner is inside. You'll need to aim a little higher than the target because of the distance. Hit the right target once to reveal the C rune.

If you backtrack to the Nornir chest, then walk a few paces down the path on your right, you'll spot the last Spinner covered in blue brambles up next to a large tree. Ignite the brambles with your Blades of Chaos (press and hold L2, then press R2.) Then you'll be able to hit the left spinner target once to show the P rune.

Your reward for opening this Nornir chest will be a Horn of Blood Mead. Collecting enough of these will increase your maximum Rage so you can use more Spartan Rage attacks like Fury or Valor.
