The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I get that armor?
1 of 7: You'll first need to use the Olava's Token item Gabriella gave you to get a reading.
2 of 7: Travel to Whiterun, then make the "Receive a reading from Olava the Feeble" miscellaneous objective active so you can use a quest arrow to locate Olava. (If she's locked in her house, wait until she leaves it.)
3 of 7: Talk to her about her token and your future to learn of a mysterious treasure that's waiting for you at Hag's End.
4 of 7: Use the directions given in the Solitude section of the World Map Exploration Guide to get to the Hag's End outdoor area.
5 of 7: Enter the Hag's End interior area and fight your way to a room with a throne in it.
6 of 7: Go behind the throne to find a secret door in the rock, then use the handle that's to the left of the door to open it. (Note that the handle isn't there until after you get Olava's reading.)
7 of 7: Past the door is a dead Dark Brotherhood assassin with the ancient shrouded armor on him. Don't neglect to also loot the large chest of its random goodies.
