The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I get this door open?
1 of 5: You can try to pick the lock, but it'll be a tough one.
2 of 5: As Illia mentions, one of the local hagravens has the door's key.
3 of 5: Go through the doorway in the east wall and down to a wooden door that opens on the hagraven's chamber.
4 of 5: Get the hagraven's attention, then sprint back to Illia's position to get her to join the fight. That'll make killing the hagraven and her witch pal quite a bit easier.
5 of 5: Get the Darklight Tower key from the hagraven's body, then optionally loot her room before opening the locked door.
