The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Bring a Dragon Scale and a Dragon Bone to Esbern.
1 of 4: You should've gotten at least one scale and one bone from the dragon you just killed. If not, go back and get them, or kill and loot another dragon somewhere else.
2 of 4: Once you have at least one dragon scale and one dragon bone, return to Sky Haven Temple and talk to Esbern about them.
3 of 4: He'll give you a unique potion called Esbern's Potion. Drink it from the "Potions" section of your inventory to get a permanent 10% resistance to all dragons' melee attacks.
4 of 4: NOTES: This objective won't disappear from the list like it should. After several game days pass, you can ask Esbern about dragons to hunt to get the "Kill the dragon in [random dragon lair]" objective again. After you finish it and report back to Esbern, you can repeat it again after a few more days have passed.
