No matter how trivial it may be, the whole plot is tied to prophecy. It so happened that the events preceding and occurring at the moment of the appearance of the Main character in the world Skyrim, almost completely coincide with this very prophecy. The latter says that the greatest of dragons will soon appear - Alduin, after which all those who were not lucky enough to be born a dragon will have to become dead, and in general a complete Armazdian will come.

Concerning events, proving the entry into force of the prophecy, then this is nothing more than Civil War, which began between the Empire and the Stormcloaks. This is what all movables call themselves Ulfric Stormcloak, who, by the way, killed the previous king of Skyrim - Toruga. After which the full-scale fighting between these two factions.

After talking with Odahviing, go up to the upper tier Dragonsreach Galleries And release captured dragon, you can pull the lever yourself, or you can ask the guard. Then speak again with Odahviing, who will keep the agreement and will take you The main character to the temple of the Dragon Cult Skuldafn. After landing, the protagonist immediately faces a fight with draugs and dragon, so be prepared for a grueling battle. The draugs methodically fire at the hero from the other side of the bridge, so it is logical to first deal with them, and only then defeat the dragon.

On the way to the portal to Sovngarde, a three puzzles:

• WITH first puzzle you will encounter in the second room of the Skuldafn Temple. She represents herself three rotating cabinets and a lever behind them. If you carefully examine this room, you will see that on the walls next to the outermost (left and right) cabinets, as well as above the two grates in the front of the room, patterns are drawn. Simply turn the end tables to according to patterns, and then, depending on which grille needs to be opened and the cabinet in the middle. Since the path leading to the portal lies through the grate on the left, the order of the patterns on the tables will be the same as in the screenshot.
• Second puzzle waiting for you in the room with raised wooden bridge. This task is even easier, next to each rotating cabinet there will be a corresponding picture, you just need to turn the cabinets in in the right order, and then pull the lever on the top level of this room and the bridge will lower. From left to right: Fish, Snake, Bird.
• Third puzzle this is a door that has three revolving stone rings. In front of it you will meet Draug, the overlord from whom you need to remove the Diamond Claw. Then look at the pattern on the palm of the resulting Diamond Claw and turn the spinning circles according to the prompt. Top down: Wolf, Butterfly, The Dragon. Next, press the button in the middle of the door and it will open.

Walking into a room with a word of power " Storm, Storm Call", move along the corridor on the left and leave the Temple. Then turn left and go up to the portal to Sovngarde. Having reached it, you will witness how the Dragon Priest Nakrin takes the Staff necessary to activate the portal. Destroy the priest and take the staff. Then put it back where Nakrin took it from and jump into the portal. Once you get to Sovngarde, the quest “Home of the World Eater” will be completed.

Skyrim walkthrough of the Sovngarde quest

Quest begins after you go through the portal to Sovngarde. You need to login Hall of Valor and together with three heroes of past years, develop plan to destroy Alduin.

Sovngarde represents something receptacle of souls, where those who are worthy feast at an eternal festival in the Hall of Valor, waiting for the moment when the god Shor will call them to the last battle. This quest is not anything complicated, you can call it one of the simplest quests in the main storyline. The only obstacle for you will be shield bearer of the god Shor– Tsun, which is necessary win, so that the Main Character gains access to the Hall of Valor. You will find Shor at the Whalebone Bridge, just follow the path from where you appeared and you will certainly encounter him.

The fog of Sovngarde can be dispersed using the Clear Sky thu'um.

Upon entering the Hall of Valor, first talk to Ysgramor, and then with Hakon One-Eye, Felldir the Old And Gormlaith Golden Hilt. After the protagonist listens to their plan, this quest will end.

“Dragon Slayer” – the last fight with Alduin

Exercise begins after the protagonist discusses the past with three heroes battle plan against Alduin.

You need leave the Hall of Valor and move to the place where your comrades are waiting for you - Ysgramor, Hakon And Felldir. Uniting your cry with them “ Clear sky“, dispel the fog sent by Alduin, this must be done three times, since the evil dragon sends it again and again. After he gets tired of doing this, Alduin will fly in on his own and then the usual fight with the dragon awaits you. Use “ Dragon Slayer” and hit Alduin with everything you can get your hands on.

After defeating the main antagonist of the main storyline, you can learn a new thu’um from Tsuna “ Call of Valor». Leave Sovngarde You can again by talking to Tsun.

On this cheerful note and ends main storyline of the game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

When the dragon talks about the need to have wings to get to Skuldafn, we can agree to his offer to take our hero to this place on himself. To free the dragon, you need to demand it from the guard. After delivering us to the world of Alduin, the dragon will have to be released, since he agreed to help us only on the condition that he was free. Before sending us to Skuldafn, we should stock up well on all useful potions, spells, weapons and armor. We are facing a decisive battle on which the fate of the entire kingdom of Skyrim depends.

Walking through the temple and the path to Sovngrad

After this, the hero will again have a conversation with Odaving and a flight to Skuldafn. The dragon will leave the hero and he will begin to make his way to the temple, where he may meet two more dragons who will turn out to be hostile to him. It is quite difficult to fight with them, since the terrain around will be rough and hiding from them is quite difficult.
You will have to use the cry over and over again, which brings them down from heaven to earth.
After defeating them, you will need to gradually move forward. In the temple itself there will be a classic set - draugr and simple traps, which can be solved very simply and there will be absolutely no difficulty with them. Although, if you go on this trip unprepared, you may quickly run out of necessary and healthy ingredients and if you haven’t mastered any healing spells, you’ll have a pretty tough time. If you do the wrong thing and try to break through without a fight, then a huge crowd of draugs will begin to pursue the main character, who will have a hard time getting away from them in the cramped catacombs. It is very difficult to engage in battle with such a horde, since they will simply be crushed by the mass.
Conclusion - you need to go carefully, luring out enemies gradually and preferably one by one. Having passed all the tests of this kind, we rise to the very top. There is a temple here, which is full of traps and all kinds of combination locks, some of which are very difficult to unravel, but they are quite logical and can be easily analyzed. By the way, if you need to destroy several draugs at once, you can very successfully throw a bunch of oil on them and set it on fire. This is very effective and saves a lot of time and ammunition, as well as medicine.
A summoned creature will be very helpful in this campaign, of which you should already have several by this time. The fire atronach is good, it has a huge amount of armor and good damage, so it can survive for a very long time. If it is destroyed, it can very effectively destroy everything around it in clouds of its flame. Of the pitfalls to watch out for, be sure to check out combination lock almost at the very end of the road. Here you need to place two stones in the correct type of position, which is quite difficult and every mistake is fraught with large damage from neighboring walls. In one side stone we place a drawing of a fish, and in the other a snake, and in the third we leave an empty opening. We press the lever and the door opens. You could get these clues yourself - they are located one level below this place. At the top we have to defeat Nakrin and use the seal using the staff. We take this very staff from the defeated Nakrin. Also, among other things, the creature has one of the masks, which provide certain extremely useful bonuses. We see a portal that has opened, which leads directly to Sovngrad, where we need to jump. After which the quest will be successful

Alduin's Wall

We need to escort Esbern to Delphine. To do this, we give him time to collect his notes and hit the road. On the spot we go down to the same Delfina basement and listen to the old man. He offers to look at Alduin's Wall, which supposedly will help us find out weak spots dragon and defeat him. We wait for Dolphin and go to the wall, which is located in the Temple of Heavenly Harbor. If you don’t want to go with Delphine, you can immediately meet her and Esbern on the spot. We enter the temple, destroy the outcasts and go out to the raised bridge. To lower it, you need to rotate the three columns so that they have the same sign, as on the far right. When the signs match, the bridge will lower. We pass along it and go out into a room with pressure plates. You can only step on the slabs with the same sign that were on the previous three columns. Following only them, we get to the chain and pull on it. Now the trap is not scary, you can safely walk on any slab you like, and besides, the bridge will drop just ahead. We go forward and go out to the entrance directly to the Temple of Heavenly Harbor itself. To open the passage, we stand on the seal and spill our blood on it. The path is open, we go into the temple. Esbern, having examined Alduin's wall, reports that the dragon can only be defeated with a special Shout, which, unfortunately, we do not know. But the Greybeards probably know about this, you need to go to them. Throat of the world

We return to High Hrothgar and find Arngeir. Unfortunately, he does not know the Crick we need, but Paarthurnax, the leader of the Greybeards, knows him, and it would be a great honor to meet him. But because We will be a stranger to him, we need to learn some Shout, thanks to which we will have the honor of meeting the leader. We follow Arngeir and study the Clear Sky Creek. Thanks to him, we will be able to climb to the very top of the mountain, where Paarthurnax is located. To do this, simply aim at the ice whirlwind and use “Clear Sky” on it. Having climbed the mountain, we meet Paarthurnax, who, in fact, is a dragon. Getting straight to the point would not be a very nice thing to do, so first you need to greet each other. We study the “Fire Breath” Shout, which Paarthurnax gives us, and use it on the dragon. After that he is ready to listen to us completely. We tell him that we want to learn the Dragon Slayer Shout. But to our misfortune, he does not know this Shout, but the Ancient Scroll will help us with this. You need to discuss this with Esbern or Arngeir.

Ancient knowledge

The closest place to get to is Arngeir, so we go to it. He advises us to ask about this scroll at the College of Winterhold, so we will have to head there. Having reached the College, we are met by Faralda, who says that getting to the magicians is not so easy. We explain to her that we want to go there just like that, but she will ask her to offer something in return for the College. We tell her that we are Dovahkiin, and by using the Scream on her, we prove it. The path to the magicians is open, we follow to the Hall of Elements, from where we go to the Arcaneum. There we find an orc named Urag gro-Shuv. We ask him about the scroll, and so that he becomes much friendlier with us, we tell him that we are Dovahkiin. The orc will agree to help us with information on finding the scroll. We give him a little time, after which he will put two books on the table. We read them and tell Urag that the book “Reflections” is completely unreadable. He says that it was written by a certain scientist named Septimius Segonius. Surely he can help us find the scroll. We head to his lair, which is located on a small island among huge ice floes floating on the sea. This mad scientist is only willing to help us if we give him some notes. We go to Alftand and penetrate the ice caves. Following them, we go out into some kind of metallurgical workshop. Destroying the Dwemer spiders and spheres, we follow the corridors, go up to the second floor and go out to the door leading to the Animatorium. We pass between the walls and come out to an inclined rise, on which three small devices are visible that launch deadly traps. We step over them and go further to the closed grate, behind which a lever is visible. We pull it, after which the grate will lower. Now you need to go down to the very bottom of the cave, moving both along a spiral staircase and through rooms inhabited by Falmers. Going downstairs, we go to Alftand Cathedral. We jump over the mechanisms for launching traps on the floor and go out into the large hall. The path further is blocked by a grate, which can be lowered only by turning the lever, which is located a little higher behind. We go forward, destroy the Dremora centurion and activate the mechanism that will open the way to the Black Reach. Having got into it and having admired the huge mushrooms, we follow to the Mzarka tower. Going up to the panels, insert the empty dictionary into the dictionary stand and press the four buttons in turn from right to left. True, in order for the third button to appear, you will have to play around with the first two right ones. We take the Ancient Scroll and go back to Skyrim.

If after all this you say that this is not one of the most beautiful games, I will bite you!

Alduin's Curse

We have the Ancient Scroll, now we need to read it at the time gap in the Throat of the World. We stand at the place of the gap, which can be detected by the curved air, go to the interface, in the “books” section we take the scroll and read it. We went back in time when Alduin was banished to our present time. Having seen and recognized the “Dragon Slayer” Shout from the Nordic heroes, we return to our time and prepare for the battle with Alduin. Using the “Dragon Slayer” we have studied, we knock Alduin out of the sky and begin to attack with all types of weapons or magic that we have. Paarthurnax will also help us with this. But no matter how hard we try, we won’t be able to destroy the dragon. He soars into the sky and disappears on the horizon.

Fallen

We need to find where he is hiding. From Paarthurnax we learn that the palace of Earl Whiterun was once a dungeon for dragons. You can catch a dragon and lock it in a dungeon so that it reveals where Alduin is hiding. But first you need to get permission from the Jarl of Whiterun for this kind of activity. We go to him in Dragon's Reach and ask for help. He will agree to help only on the condition that the civil war between the Imperials and the Stormcloaks ends in peace. Arngeir, to whom we are heading, can help us with this. Now all that remains is to report this meeting to Ulfric Stormcloak and General Tullius. First, we go to the Stormcloaks, whose jarl is in Windhelm. We find Ulfric in the royal hall and tell him that the Greybeards are calling him to a truce. He will not agree to take part in this until he is convinced that Tullius himself will not come there. But we don’t like running back and forth, so we tell him that if Tullius does not come to the truce, then he will show himself on the weak side. After thinking a little, Ulfric agrees, and we go to Solitude to the imperials. We explain to Tullius the importance of this truce, and as an incentive we say that Ulfric himself will also come to the meeting, which he cannot refuse. Now we return to High Hrothgar to Arngeir. The meeting is ready, but Delphine and Esbern also come to it. There is nothing to do, you will have to take them with you. We follow the Graybeards into the hall and sit down in a chair. They will negotiate without our help, we just occasionally support either the words of Ulfric or Tullius, depending on who we are more inclined towards. As a result, the meeting ends in a truce, and Esbern gives us a scroll that gives Odahviing's Summoning Cry. It's time to go to Whiterun and prepare a trap for this dragon. We give a signal to Balgruuf that we are ready to begin, and follow him to the gallery, where a trap has already been prepared. We go out onto the balcony, select the Dragon Summoning Scream, hold down the Scream key and release it so that our voice is stronger and the dragon can hear us. When he arrives, we attack him and gradually lure him into the hall, where the trap will be triggered. After talking with Odahviing, he will agree to help us.

No, seriously! Where else can you see such beauty?!

House of the World Eater

You need to get to Skuldafn, but you can only get there by air. We ask the Whiterun guard to free the dragon, after which we climb onto Odaving and fly to the habitat of all the dragons. Having arrived at the place, we begin to move towards the portal leading to Sovngarde. Making our way through crowds of draugr and dragons, we get to the temple. Having cleared his hall from half-dead mummies, we go out into a room with three columns and a lever. As in previous times, you need to rotate the columns so that when using the lever, open the left gate, because... the right ones lead nowhere, except to the chest. To open the lattice we need, we set up columns with the following signs: eagle - snake - eagle. This must be done from the lever side, because If you look at the middle column from the other side, then the sign will bifurcate. We follow further along the corridors populated by spiders and emerge into another room, but with the same columns. Now, with their help, we need to lower the bridge. The first column is located directly in front of the entrance to this room, the other two are on either side of the lever that is located above. On the bottom column we place the sign of a snake, on the right - an eagle, on the left - a fish. We pull the lever and follow the bridge deeper and deeper into the temple. We go up the steps, turn right into a narrow passage and go out to the bridge. We go along it to a room with a spiral staircase. We go upstairs, where we encounter a closed grate. We destroy the draugr and go into the room behind, where we find the lever from the grate. We go further and go out to the round door, near which the Draugr Overlord is located. We destroy him and take the diamond claw from him. Now you need to open the door. We set the following signs from top to bottom: wolf - moth - dragon. We turn the diamond claw and the path is open. We study the new Scream and leave the temple. Coming out into the light, we turn left, from where we go out to the stairs leading directly to the portal to Sovngarde. Without delaying for a second, we immediately jump into the portal, without getting into a squabble with the local dragons.

Sovngarde

We are from Sovngarde, the city of souls. We go down the steps and meet a Stormcloak soldier. According to him, Alduin is hiding in this fog, and to defeat him, you need to go to the Hall of Valor and team up with other heroes. We head to the place where Tsun is blocking our way at the entrance to the hall. Despite the fact that we are Dovahkiin, he will not want to let us through until we prove to him that we are a strong opponent. We give him the first number so that he will regret that he started all this in the first place. We cross the abyss along the dragon bones and enter the Hall of Valor. After talking with Ysgramor, we approach the three Nordic heroes whom we saw when we traveled back in time using the Ancient Scroll. Having united with them, we set out for Alduin. Dragonslayer

Together with the heroes we go outside and follow them. With the help of the “Clear Sky” shout, we help the heroes get rid of the fog, but this will happen the third time. When the fog clears, Alduin himself will fly to us. Using the “Dragon Slayer”, we force it to land and begin to attack. When Alduin is defeated, we approach Tsun, who will return us back to Skyrim and also teach the Summoning Shout of the Nord Hero.

This concludes the main plot and we can move on to other unfinished business, and I'm sure there are many more.

House of the World Eater(orig. The World-Eater's Eyrie) - quest of the main storyline in the game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Brief walkthrough

1. Free Odahviing;
2. Talk to Odahviing;
3. Get to Alduin's portal leading to Sovngarde;
4. Get to Sovngarde.

Walkthrough

The captured dragon Odahviing will say that Alduin fled to Sovngarde, where he feeds on the souls of the dead. His portal to Sovngarde is located in the ancient temple of the Skuldafn Dragon Cult, high in the Jerol Mountains. But here’s the problem - you can only get there by air... Odahviing could take Dovahkiin there in exchange for freedom. To release it, you need to pull the chain at the top.

Unfortunately, the flight over Skyrim will not be shown. The protagonist will simply immediately be in place. Odahviing will say goodbye and fly away, and the hero will immediately face a battle with two dragons and draugr. Since the dead will be very annoying, it is better to kill them first, and then the dragons. The same order applies to subsequent fights. Fire breath is very effective for destroying draugr (even if only one word of the power of this “mind” is revealed).

After exploring the surrounding area, there is nothing left to do but enter the temple. The essence of the task with stones is as follows: turn the drawings of the side stones to the corresponding drawings on the walls, depending on the active drawing on the central stone, which is visible from the side of the lever, either the right gate or the left one will open.

After this, the hero will have a fight with frosty spiders.

The clues to the next three stones are located next to them. The bottom one is a snake, the right one (from the entrance) is a bird, the left one is a fish. The bridge will fall, allowing you to pass through the door to the next level of the temple. Here you will have to fight the draugr, the main military leader or dragon priest, take the diamond claw from him and open the door. Combination from top to bottom: wolf - butterfly - dragon.

Here you can learn the “Storm Call” cry, which causes a real storm, with thunder and lightning, as expected. Effective against mass concentrations of the enemy. Before leaving, it makes sense to visit the room on the right. It has several shelves, and on the bottom of them, in a bowl, lies a flawless diamond and several other precious stones.

Here, finally, is the way out. Having killed the draugr, main character can ascend to the portal. If it is difficult to deal with the undead, then the hero can simply dodge and throw them off the cliff by shouting “Ruthless Force”.

After defeating Nakrin, one of the eight high dragon priests, you can get his mask and staff, necessary to open the portal. Sovngarde is waiting!

Notes

• You don't have to kill Nakrin. By shouting “Slow Time” you can bypass the priest, although this will make it impossible to get his mask, which makes it impossible to get Konarik in an honest way.
• The journal says that Skuldafn is located in the Jerol Mountains, although judging by the map, the temple is located in the Velothi Mountains.
• If you summon any creature, it will go over to Nakrin's side.
• However, the two Dremora Lords are able to kill Nakrin before he can capture them.

Bugs

• Sometimes the Whiterun guard who must pull the chain to release Odahviing dies. Then you will have to release the dragon yourself.
• Also, when opening a riddle gate, a bug occurs in which it is impossible to open it in any combination.

Skyrim - 54 ( Main quest- House of the World Eater)

Main quest - "House of the World Eater"

“House of the World Eater” is one of the final quests of the main storyline in game The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. In this mission, the protagonist will have to travel to the Skuldafn Dragon Cult temple, located east of the Jerome Mountains. It is there that there is a portal with which you can be transported to Sovngarde and fight the final boss - the dragon Alduin, the Devourer of Worlds. It is impossible to return to Skyrim until the task is completed, so do not forget to stock up on potions and learn unlearned spells and shouts.

How to get to Alduin's portal leading to Sovngarde

It is impossible to get to the required place by land in this task: the temple is located on a high mountain, where there are no roads, outside the map that can be explored. The only one who can help in this matter is the dragon Odahviing, caught and chained in stocks on the airfield of the castle in Whiterun.

Odahviing will vow to serve Dovahkiin in exchange for freedom and help with moving to Skuldafn. The flight itself is not shown in the game: the hero simply teleports to Right place, as during fast travel. After transportation, Odahviing will say goodbye and fly away, but when further completing unfinished quests on the territory of Skyrim, he can always be summoned using the cry “Call of the Dragon.”

Temple of Skuldafn in the mission “House of the World Eater” in Skyrim

Immediately upon his appearance, the hero will receive a warm welcome in the literal sense: he will be attacked by three squads of draugr, each of which is led by a dragon. The opponents are strong, however, as in any quest, their level is adjusted to the character’s level. Although the game is approaching its conclusion, there will be no difficulties in exterminating them if by that time the player has managed to get hold of good equipment. After the massacre, you can go inside the temple. The most effective cry against draugr is “Fire Breath” (even if only one word has been learned).

How to solve the puzzle in the mission "House of the World Eater"

Inside there are several locked doors that can be opened by activating special mechanisms. There is nothing left to do but solve the proposed puzzles. In the first one, you need to turn the columns, turning towards the drawing on the wall the same drawing carved on the stone. Combination: fish (towards the stone), bird (towards the lever), snake (towards the stone).

After this, having defeated the frost spiders, you can move on. Naturally, during the passage you will have to fight with draugr, many of which can use screams.

The clues for the next three stones are located next to them. The bottom one is a snake, the right one is a bird, the left one is a fish. After activating the lever, the bridge should fall, along which we move further and rise to the second floor.

Here you will have to defeat the draugr overlord and take the key to the next door from him. The hint is written on the key itself. To do this, you need to open your inventory and turn the key back to yourself. Combination: wolf, butterfly, dragon. There is also a Wall of Power here, with which you can learn the “Thunder Call” cry.

In front of the portal itself, the dragon priest Nakrin will be waiting for the protagonist. It is recommended to attack him before he gets to his staff, otherwise it will be much more difficult to kill him later. The staff is the key to the portal. Having passed through it, the hero will find himself in Sovngarde. By killing the priest, you can also pick up the Konarik artifact mask, the ninth and last in the game.

Bug with Odahviing and others in the mission “House of the World Eater”

When watching the walkthrough video, you may get the impression that everything in this task works perfectly. However, many players note that, despite several patches, this is one of the most buggy quests in the game. The most famous bugs that were found:

• The Whiterun guard, who is supposed to pull the chain and free Odahviing, does not listen or even disappears somewhere. In this case, you must pull the chain yourself.
• Odahviing doesn’t listen, he repeats, “We’ll fly now,” but nothing happens. To get into the temple with two doors, only loading an earlier save outside the castle will help and re-entry into the room.
• In the first puzzle, the specified combination may not work. You will have to find another one by selecting it, turning the columns one by one. Since there are only 27 combinations, you can manage it quickly.
• In the second puzzle, the middle stone may not turn (seen on Xbox), making it impossible to open the door. You will have to reboot outside the temple and re-enter it.
• The rings that activate the bridge do not work, so the structure does not lower. To go further, you can use the Swift Dash skill and jump onto the platform.
• If you kill the dragon priest before he uses the staff, then the hero himself will not be able to take this item. To get to the portal, you will have to jump.
• Dragons before entering Skuldafn can “blunt” and fly in circles without attacking the hero. When killed, the bodies will lie motionless on the tops of the columns.

It has been noticed that the more mods a player installs, the higher the likelihood of any bugs occurring: some add-ons conflict with the original game and with each other. It’s difficult to say which one should be removed: it all depends on the specific assembly and is determined by “random poke.”
