Skyrim – HundoDex

Unearthed

Fund the dig in four stages of 1,000, 2,000, 3,000 and 5,000 gold, clearing out the draugr each time the miners break into a new level. The last stage reaches the Dragon Priest Ahzidal.

  • Questline: Dragonborn – Around Solstheim
  • Given by: Ralis Sedarys
  • Reward: The relics of Ahzidal, the mask Ahzidal and a word of Cyclone
  • Add-on: Dragonborn
  • Where: Kolbjorn Barrow

How to start

Speak to Ralis Sedarys at the buried Kolbjorn Barrow, south-east of Raven Rock. Geldis Sadri at the Retching Netch can point you there.

Good to know

Each stage takes a few days of digging before the next can be paid for. The Black Book Filament and Filigree is in the last chamber, and Ralis can be spared and hired as a follower.
