The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints
How do I move on from here?
1 of 8: After you absorb the word from the Word Wall, several draugr will break out of their sarcophagi.
2 of 8: Sprint partway back up the stairs and fire on them from there, letting Frea take the brunt of the attack.
3 of 8: TIP: If you have one of the rune spells, like Fire Rune, you can get the draugr to come out of their sarcophagi one at a time by casting a rune on the floor next to the base of each sarcophagus. After they're all dead, you can get the word from the Word Wall.
4 of 8: After the combat is over, look around for some sort of door or passage.
5 of 8: Examine the open sarcophagus that's by itself, to the left of a treasure chest.
6 of 8: It has an iron door in it that requires a key.
7 of 8: Search the dead draugr to find that the one called "Gatekeeper" has a key.
8 of 8: Take it and open the iron door, then go through it to move on.
