WalkthroughEdit
ExteriorEdit
North of the Braidwood Inn is a small path passing a camp that leads east and north up a hill to the entrance of the mine. Outside the mine is a smelter, three owned malachite ingots on the end of a cart, and one owned piece of malachite ore on a crate, with a second unowned piece of malachite ore behind another crate farther to the west. There are no hostiles in or around the mine, although after the quest Dragon Rising, dragons often fly overhead. The mine path continues onward to a dragon burial mound east of Kynesgrove (related to the quest A Blade in the Dark).
North of the inn and west of the entrance to the mine is the miners' camp. It consists of a central campfire around which are three small tents, each containing an unowned bedroll. North of the fire are two food barrels with a rack holding nine owned salmon. Northeast of the fire is a vegetable patch where ten cabbages, four gourds, six leeks, and eight potatoes grow. A tanning rack and a wood chopping block are on the fringe of the camp, and a grindstone is by the northwestern corner of the inn. A nightshade plant and a snowberry bush can be found around the camp.
Steamscorch MineEdit
Inside the mine are seven malachite ore veins (
on the map) and twenty-one patches of fly amanita. The first two malachite ore veins are just inside the mine on either side of the main path, with an empty chest on the right of the tunnel; the other five veins are deeper in. The tunnel opens up to a small area with a table (A on the map) holding a copy of the Enchanting skill book Catalogue of Armor Enchantments, a bottle of wine, and a random healing potion. A pair of random boots can be found on the ground by the table. The mine then splits into two parallel tunnels, both of which lead to the area at the end. The left tunnel contains another table with several food barrels and sacks as well as a pair of leather boots, while the right tunnel leads to a side tunnel containing a malachite ore vein. The remaining four malachite ore veins are all in the area at the end of the tunnels; two of the veins are on the ground, and two more are accessible by climbing the scaffolding in the area.
The mine is worked by a few NPCs and is often patrolled by the Dark Elf mage Dravynea the Stoneweaver. She resides at the nearby inn and offers a miscellaneous quest to bring her frost salts in return for training in the school of Alteration. Dravynea also states it is her job to keep the mine safe and prevent it from collapsing.
NotesEdit
- Once you have completed the quest to locate Roggi's Ancestral Shield, the next time you visit the mine, the shield will be at the top of the ramp against the rear wall of the mine; it will not be marked as owned and will therefore be free to take.
BugsEdit
- If Klija appears at Kynesgrove but you then side with the Imperial Legion and kill her during the quest Battle of the Champions, this version of her will not be disabled and she will continue to live at the camp. ?
