The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles Hints
Xirethard
1 of 10: Move north and then west to find a metal door that leads to a long N/S hallway.
2 of 10: This and the next few hallways will all have spells shooting down them frequently thanks to some spell-slingin' statues positioned at their ends.
3 of 10: Keep to the sides and use the side alcoves to help you avoid being hit as you make your way along.
4 of 10: Take the first right you come to, then turn right again immediately after that.
5 of 10: Then make two quick lefts so that you're going north along another long N/S hallway.
6 of 10: At its north end is an east passage with a button on a wall that'll deactivate all of the spell-slingin' statues. (Not that that'll do you any good now -- you're past all of them!)
7 of 10: Past the next metal door, you'll be ambushed by three of Syl's loyal dark seducers.
8 of 10: After they're all dead, go up the stairs near the room's NW corner and then cross it on the bridge the archers were standing on.
9 of 10: As you move across the room to the east, a gate will close behind you and some secret walls will open up, revealing three more dark seducers to fight.
