This imposing stronghold stands just south of the village of Shor’s Stone [9.25]. The Rift’s eastern road runs directly through the fort. You may therefore breach the fort quite easily, or opt to slip in through the cave. Fort Greenwall is a point of contention between the Stormcloaks and Imperials, so you may find soldiers occupying this space instead of bandits, depending on the status of the Civil War quest line.

Exterior

Dispatch a legion of bandits to secure the fort’s outer grounds. Then begin raiding its various interior sections.

The prison connects to the Captain’s Quarters, and its basement is infested with Frostbite Spiders. Cut through thick webs to make your way to the bottom, then unlock the Master-level door to access a chest.

Captain’s Quarters

The bandit’s stalwart chief lies in the Captain’s Quarters and won’t go down without a fight. If you can’t break into this area via its locked trapdoor entrance, enter through the fort’s prison instead. Touch the small shrine you discover in here to instantly rid yourself of all diseases. A Skill Book sits on the shelf in the master bedroom.

Cave

A small cave runs beneath Fort Greenwall. Enter via its northern mouth and pick an Expert-level gate to make your way through, emerging at a well within the fort. As you explore the cave, find a letter at the bottom of the southern pool that explains what fate befell the nearby floating corpse.
