The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints

What's the regular way to get to the same area?

  • 1 of 13: Open the gate with the scrye device, then go past it and activate the "Chapter II" book to get teleported to a new area. (Note that you can then turn around and read the "Chapter I" book to return to where you were, but that's not useful.)
  • 2 of 13: Go down the winding corridor until you reach a large room, then try to sneak-attack the seeker that you can see between two large book stacks ahead.
  • 3 of 13: After killing that seeker and another one, look NE of the altar that's in the back of the room to find a ramp.
  • 4 of 13: Past the second moving bridge, go left to find a bit of treasure, then go the other way to find a "Chapter III" book.
  • 5 of 13: Read it to be teleported again, then move into a huge open area. Before crossing the bridge ahead, look to the right for a ramp.
  • 6 of 13: Go up it and along until you find a scrye device, then use it to extend the stone steps on both sides of the small central "island."
  • 7 of 13: Go back down to the bridge, then cross to the island and kill the seeker that's on it before crossing the next small bridge. A bit past it are some steps leading up to a closed gate.
  • 8 of 13: Look to the south of the gate for some more steps, then kill off the nearby lurker before going up them and a ramp to find the scrye device that opens the gate.
  • 9 of 13: Go through that gate and up some steps to find another closed gate, then look SW from it to see the steps that lead up to its opening scrye.
  • 10 of 13: Watching out for another seeker, go to the back of the area past that gate and wait for it to "extend" in a warpy-looking way. After it does, you can go to its other end to find "Chapter V" and "Chapter VI" books.
  • 11 of 13: Use the "Chapter VI" book to get it to teleport you, then go down to where there are "Chapter VII" and "Chapter VIII" books.
  • 12 of 13: Use the "Chapter VII" book to get to a small "island" with a seeker on it. Kill it, then use the scrye device before using the "Chapter VI" book to return to where you were.
  • 13 of 13: Now use the "Chapter VIII" book to get to where the shortcut would've taken you.
