Exterior

On the eastern side of the plateau between Solstheim’s high peaks rests Hrothmund’s Barrow. Hrothmund was the founder of Thirsk Mead Hall. The remains of a stone formation in the shape of a wolf are spread across the snow.

Interior

A dripping wet initial cavern has steps that lead you up to a set of double iron doors. Before entering, check to the right (east) for a hidden pull chain and rock wall that opens to a tunnel. At the end of the tunnel is a second chain that opens an entrance to a small grotto with a chest and scattered gold and gems. Through the iron doors is a ceremonial burial crypt, half submerged in water. This recedes during the quest, when you take Bujold the Unworthy to meet the spirit of Hrothmund, who appears only as an unearthly voice. You cannot take his axe. There are two chests here.
