This small, eerie pond lies on the west side of Eastmarch, just north of the Hold’s larger and more prominent western hot springs. The pond derives its name from the tiny isle found in its center—when viewed from above, it resembles an eye.

Exterior

Exterminate the small cluster of Mudcrab near the pond’s central “eye,” then search for a trapdoor on the central isle, which leads into Mara’s Eye Den. There’s little else of interest around the pond.

Mara’s Eye Den (Interior)

This small underground cavern was once a smugglers den but has since been taken over by a more blood chilling foe—vampires. Slay the cursed beings, then loot the place for loads of valuables, including a Skill Book that’s mixed in with other books in a small crate. There’s no need to pick the locked cage here—nothing of interest is found within.
