• Blood of the Divines: Recover the blood of a god for Martin.

[edit] Notes

• Sancre Tor is an Ayleid phrase meaning "Golden Hill"
• There is an unmarked road that leads here, running from Bruma to Chorrol.
• The surface ruins contain several chests with loot (two in the main tower, two in the southeast tower, a locked one in the southwest tower, one in a small northwest tower, one by a small northern tower), as long as you're willing to take on all of leveled bones undead (skeletons and/or liches) wandering the ruins. There is also a Sidri-Ashak Runestone just north of the main tower. There is a boss bones undead near the entrance of the fort.
• The catacombs can only be entered with the Sancre Tor Key; you'll acquire the key as part of the main quest during Blood of the Divines. If you try to open the main door without the key, you are told: "A weather-worn iron plaque is affixed to the door above an imposing lock. The inscription is barely legible: 'Sealed by authority of the Grandmaster of the Blades, 36th Year of the Reign of Tiber Septim'".
• Inside the ruin you will encounter leveled ethereal undead (ghosts and/or wraiths), four Undead Blades, and undead Warden Kastav. See the quest description for more details on the interior of the ruin.
• The exterior of the fort has quite possibly the largest area out of every other Ayleid ruin, cave, mine, and fort.
• The fort is one of the best sources of ectoplasm.
• The doors in the zones below noted as (locked, says 'key required' but there is no key) are actually obstacles such as a caved in hallway. There is no door, and none will appear on your map. These passages are used by the ghosts when they walk back to the main chamber.
