The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints

Speak to Karliah.

  • 1 of 6: Go to the SW corner of the huge entry chamber to find a dwarven sphere to fight near the start of a passage.
  • 2 of 6: Go down the passage to find another room with a dwarven sphere in it. (Note that it may not drop down and attack until you move through the doorway that leads to the next room.)
  • 3 of 6: As you move into the large multi-level room, three dwarven spheres will activate and attack at once. You might want to draw them back the way you came in hopes that not all of them will follow you at once.
  • 4 of 6: The next room has several pop-up flame-trap pedestals that you'll want to keep your distance from in order to avoid getting flamed. Watch out for several of those and a couple of dwarven spiders as you make your way to the gate at the south end of the room.
  • 5 of 6: Move on past that until you come to a lift on your right that'll take you to the Irkngthand Grand Cavern area when you use its lever.
  • 6 of 6: Move forward from the lift to meet up with Karliah and get the next objective.
