The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Where are these four now-active dragon mounds?
1 of 6: There's one just a short way north of Serpent's Bluff Redoubt (see the Markarth section of the World Map Exploration Guide) where you can witness Alduin resurrecting a dragon named Nahagliiv.
2 of 6: As before, ignore Alduin and focus all of your attacks on Nahagliiv, starting when he's still just an animated skeleton.
3 of 6: After that dragon is killed, Esbern and Delphine may take off on their own instead of following you anymore. If so, you can follow them along and get the other three dragons later, or you can go get them now and then get to Karthspire on your own.
4 of 6: One of the other three mounds is a short way SW of the west end of Soljund's Sinkhole. It should have a leveled, non-named dragon flying around near it.
5 of 6: Another mound with a recently resurrected dragon near it can be found just SW of the pool at Evergreen Grove (which is in the Falkreath section of the exploration guide).
6 of 6: The other mound is fairly close to Greenspring Hollow (Morthal section of the exploration guide). Go SW from the hollow and cross the stream, then keep going SW to find the mound past a large hill.
