Walkthrough

  • This quest is obtained by talking to Thane Svarah Sun-Hair after completing What Yet Lingers and Avvar Allies.
  • After talking to him, walk along the river, passing the checkpoints.
  • You need to find the path leading to the Ruins guarded by Hakkonites. 
  • Kill them, go towards the small campsite and wait for Kenric and Harding to arrive.
  • After speaking with them, head to the northern part of the stronghold.
  • Here you will find a puzzle of switches that you need to solve to get through to collect some loot.
  • You activate them by stepping on them. You can reset them using the lever.
  • You need to do it in such a way that the combination looks exactly like the one in front of the door.
  • Do it in this order:
    • First Door: The one in the center, then the 4 around it (Up,Down,Left,Right) (not the corner ones). 
    • Second Door: Then hit all the switches on the outside (including corner ones). Do not hit the center.
  • Then head up the stairs and destroy the barrier using veilfire atop the wall. To get to it, use the wooden scaffolding to your left to clmb up.
  • Then head inside till you find another veilfire. Use it to examine the 2 runes (one in each corner). 
  • Then head back to the veilfire, where you will see a lever closeby. Use it and activate the spire.
  • The cutscene will show you the direction where you need to go. Head that way till you reach a large gate.
  • Activate all the levers to open the gate. Quest completes upon using the last one.
