Shriekwind Bastion is a Nordic ruin located north of Falkreath. Inside is the word wall for the Elemental Fury shout.
It can be entered by two separate entrances: North Shriekwind Bastion and South Shriekwind Bastion.

This part of the bastion consists of a number of terraces surrounding a central circular area. A chest with ~875

Entering the bastion via south gate leads to a lower path letting you eventually exit via the north gate, and an upper path that dead ends in a word wall. Many skeletons and vampires infest the bastion, and coffins are not uncommon.
