Walkthrough

The main path to the tower approaches from the north, with stone steps leading up to a doorway in the lowest of the tower's three floors. It is also possible to climb the mountain behind Fort Fellhammer to reach the tower from the southwest; from this direction, you will reach the middle floor first.

There is nothing of interest on the lowest floor, which features only a spiral stone staircase leading up to the middle floor. At the top of the stairs is a large hole in the wall leading out onto a wooden platform. A bandit wielding a one-handed weapon guards this level. Inside against an internal wall is a novice-locked chest containing minor loot with a mounted wolf head above it. To the left is a stack of crates with a small coin purse and two silver ingots on top. The internal staircase continues to the top floor, where a bandit chief stands looking out to the north, allowing you to attack from behind. A quiver of eighteen random arrows rests on a table. To the right of the table is a lean-to with an unowned bedroll under it, and farther to the right are some barrels containing food.

Notes

• Two corundum ore veins are east of the tower on a small plateau on the side of the mountain.
