Changes: Snow Veil Sanctum

Latest revision as of 19:14, 20 February 2015

Snow Veil Sanctum is a Nordic ruin located north-north-east of Windhelm.

Note: Both entrances to the site are initially inaccessible, prior to Speaking with Silence: the Snow Veil Sanctum gate is shut off by a metal grate, and the main Snow Veil Catacombs entrance requires a key.

Places[ | ]

This is where Mercer Frey leads the Dragonborn before his betrayal. The Dragonborn must battle a rather large number of levelled draugrs here together with Mercer. A follower may not enter this place though.

Snow Veil Catacombs[ | ]

On the south-east side of a large chamber, up some wooden ramp down a meandering corridor, there is a Model Ship on a trapped pedestal which is of interest to Delvin Mallory as well as a copy of the skill book Three Thieves.

Further into the ruins there is also a word wall with one of the words for the Disarm shout and a copy of Ice and Chitin. It is also where the Dragonborn finally meets Karliah.
