This forboding fortress is a point of contention between the Imperials and Stormcloaks during the Civil War campaign. When not running Civil War Quests, you may instead find Fort Kastav to be populated by a variety of powerful adversaries, including dangerous cultists and fearsome mages. The fort can be infiltrated covertly via a trapdoor that lies just outside the wall to the northwest. The trapdoor leads to the prison—the fort’s only interior area.
Exterior
Slay a few lowly skeletons and two mighty mages to secure the outer compound. This is the most dangerous area of the fort, so take care in how you approach the battle.
Prison
Find a chest in the southeast corner of the prison’s north entry chamber, along with a few potions. A dangerous mage lurks in the southern holding cells. There’s no need to open any of the cells, unless you’re simply after lockpicking practice.
