The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Kill Paarthurnax.
1 of 3: NOTE: Killing their revered leader will greatly annoy the Greybeards at High Hrothgar. They won't turn hostile to you, but they'll want nothing to do with you anymore.
2 of 3: Travel back to the Throat of the World, then go over to where Paarthurnax is sitting.
3 of 3: You're going to fight him pretty much like you did Alduin. Hit him with Dragonrend frequently to prevent him from flying around while either pelting him with arrows and spells or whacking him with a powerful melee weapon. Again, having a follower, a summoned creature, and some serious fire resistance and healing items is advised.
