The most annoying aspect of this otherwise great game is that certain fights are deliberately hard to find. Searching for them requires considerable backtracking, which can kill the pacing. This is a list of these hidden Verses, locations only, including Alfheim Portals. I kept this brief for convenience and tried to be reasonably spoiler-free.

Introduction
When my directions are particularly vague use the Verse numbers as your general guideline. For example Chapter 2 Verse 8 should be sought out after finishing the non-hidden Verse 7.
Many players would suggest that you shouldn’t even worry about these hidden Verses until you’ve replayed the game, making my avoiding spoilers a pointless distraction. There’s some merit to that approach, but since many of these Verses (particularly the Alfheim Portals) also serve as training for more complex techniques, you might find the game more enjoyable if you try to be a Verse completionist from the start.
Chapter #1
Verse 3 Alfheim 1
After repairing statue, go back down the hole.

Verse 2 Alfheim 5
Go up the steps and destroy the garbage can. The portal will appear underneath a building nearby, next to two benches.
Verse 5 Alfheim 6
When you get to the two statues, go in the opposite direction and look for the balcony. There’s barrels underneath it.
Verse 8
Fight in the lava tunnels. (This isn’t actually hidden, but I found it easy to accidentally skip on replays.)
Verse 10 Alfheim 7
On a small island in the water.
Verse 11 Alfheim 8
After restoring the bridge, go back into the cave.
Chapter #5
Verse 3 Alfheim 9
Back to the start.
Verse 8 Alfheim 10
Get almost to the top, then drop back down to the ground. (You can look down first to see if the glowing portal is activated.)
Verse 10 Alfheim 11
After exiting tower, take lower path.
Verse 13
Backtrack to where Verse 11 was.

Verse 9 Alfheim 17
From red portal, backtrack.
Verse 10

Chapter #12
Verse 3 & Verse 4 Alfheim 18
Kick open the door, then head all the way back to the start. After beating Verse 3 the gate for 4 will appear.
Verse 6 & Verse 7 Alfheim 19
This is slightly complicated so I’ll go into detail. Jump into the enormous engine. During Verse 6 you need to use Witch Time to get all the way to the back of the tube so you can then access 7. Afterwards any projectile weapon can get you back out.
Chapter #15
Verse 1
At this point you know what to do with statues, right?

Verse 12
Investigate the large platforms until they are dead.
Epilogue
