Angarvunde: Medresi Dran and the Wandering Dead*

Angarvunde

Once inside, you’ll meet a rather abrupt and objectionable Dark Elf named Medresi Dran. She’s attempting to reach a treasure buried deep within Angarvunde’s musty corridors, but her helpers have abandoned her.

Remove the wandering corpses. Head through into the main hub chamber where they are, and deal with them in your preferred attacking style. You return to Medresi, informing her that two doors stand in the way of your progress, and they each must be opened via further exploration. She hands you a key, which opens the doors on either side of the portcullis; these lead to a mechanism that lifts the two sections of gate.

Angarvunde Ruins

The door to the northwest leads to a small maze of interlocking corridors and rooms. Work your way through them methodically, watching for pressure plates that launch traps. When you reach the steps up to the two doors with spears blocking your path, remove them by pulling the lever between them. Head across, and weave through another series of corridors and rooms until you reach steps and a corner corridor leading back into the original Angarvunde area. Work your way to the lever in the alcove and pull it.

Angarvunde Catacombs

The door to the southeast leads to the Angarvunde Catacombs, a much deeper maze of chambers that begins with a (careful) descent down a hole. Trek along the corridors and into a Draugr crypt. Fight your way through, up some trap-filled stairs (run quickly, or after the darts are expelled), then through another tomb complex. Ascend several stone steps to reach another lever. After you yank the alcove levers on both sides of this crypt, the gate opens fully.

Angarvunde

Medresi isn’t waiting around for the likes of you; she dashes forward into the treasure room and is promptly crushed as the floor trap is sprung, impaling her into a maw of ceiling spikes. Step through the opening in the raised floor and down the spiral steps to a Word Wall.
