The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I get back to the gate after getting the key?
1 of 5: Go up the log stairs in the wight lord's room, then cross a short stone bridge.
2 of 5: Go up a curving wooden ramp to reach another stone bridge with a magic pedestal trap at its other end.
3 of 5: Sprint across the bridge and grab the pedestal's soul gem to deactivate it, then cross the next bridge to find a barred door.
4 of 5: Raise the bar so you can go through the door, then turn right and go through the room's northern doorway.
5 of 5: A short way down the passage is the swinging-axe-guarded entrance to the room with the locked gate.
