Chillwind Depths

Chillwind Depths is a mountain cavern on the border of Hjaalmarch and The Reach.

It is the largest single source of Bleeding Crown, Blisterwort, Imp Stool, Namira's Rot, and White Cap.

Notes

• A Solitude guard will sometimes remark, "The road to Whiterun's not safe these days. Lots of travelers just... disappear, south of Dragon Bridge. Can't find a trace of them." A map marker for Chillwind Depths will be added when this occurs.
• An Adventurer's Journal in an abandoned camp down along the river, just across from the main road, tells of the adventurer's curiosity regarding an attack on a trade caravan, and his intention to investigate, leading him to this cave.
• There is a dead Redguard couple surrounded by Falmer arrows lying next to a wagon and a dead horse to the northwest across the river from the abandoned camp. The Redguard woman carries a Merchant's Journal referring to attacks on trade caravans.
• There is a pillar just inside the cave. You can circle around and jump onto this, then use Whirlwind Sprint to fly through the doorway across a small gap and loot the final room while avoiding most or all enemies in the cave.

He is found dead in a Falmer cage and possesses a Torn Note in which he pleads in his final days of life for forgiveness from who appears to be his lover, Eydis.
