The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Sneak into the fort.
1 of 4: You could skip the sneakery and go around to the fort's main entrance to get the "Take over the fort" objective, but that's not the best way.
2 of 4: Instead, sneak toward the quest arrow to find the trap door that leads into the fort's prison.
3 of 4: Note that if you're not sneaky enough, you may fail this objective before you can reach the trap door. However, that won't stop you from using it.
4 of 4: You'll get the "Free the prisoners" objective when you enter the fort through the trap door (or get detected by the Stormcloaks).
