The whole game off Ys X: The Nordics revolves around going to different islands and exploring them. While some of these islands are part of the main story, others are optional but it's still recommended to check them out for important items. Raufos Island is in the former category and a rather important one.

Ys X: Nordics – All blessed scrapyards
If you want to equip more equipment on Adol and Karja in Ys X: Nordics, you need to find various blessed pieces of paper on the map.
As you continue the story of Sonnelia Basin, you will find out that Jord is currently present at Griegr Fort on this island. If you want to confront her, you will have to solve many puzzles to get to the top.
Raufos Island Exterior Guide
As soon as you get off at Raufos Island, you first have to take a small path all the way up until you reach the travel point just before entering the fort. You will also notice Hugill on the way here and you can put up your inventory by interacting with it. Once you're done here, you can enter the fort by getting close to the wooden structure and holding your mana string button.
After this you will see a simple path on the left side that does that leads you directly to the first inner part. To enter the interior, go to the window to the left of the door and hold your mana string to pull the leverthat opens the door.
If there's any door you have to unlock in Ys X: Nordics, there's probably one hidden switch or lever nearby which you can reveal with mana sense.
When you exit to the other part of the exterior, you need to move all the way to the left and then pull a box outside with your mana cord. You have to get past this keep your mana strings on the hooks moved by certain chains. This takes you from one platform to another until you reach the top and enter the second interior.
In the last part of the exterior, just take the elevator up and you'll find Earth at the top. You must defeat countless enemies and clear three villagers in this area before reaching Earth.
