The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I get the Ceremonial Sword?
1 of 3: Go down the NE tunnel in the large multi-path room to reach a room with two draugr on the opposite walkway, plus maybe a draugr wight on a higher-up bridge. If you wait where you are for them to come after you, they may be injured or even killed by the swinging gate trap that's down on the lower floor.
2 of 3: After they're disposed of, go down to the lower floor and past the swinging gate trap carefully, then turn right past an open gate to reach the higher-up bridge. (Watch out for the wight and any other draugr who didn't come after you earlier.)
3 of 3: Cross the bridge and go through some iron doors to find the open sarcophagus that has the Ceremonial Sword in it. Watch out for two draugr to attack when you approach the sarcophagus, plus another one on the way back.
