Bjorn is a system of ice caves north-east of the Altar of Thrond and almost directly east of Hvitkald Peak. ^[edit]
It is home to the largest population of Fryse Hags on Solstheim.

The ice cavern itself is essentially a circular tunnel broken by two large halls, both of which contain large numbers of Fryse Hags. It is strongly advised that players take out the Fryse Hags one by one as even the most experienced characters can be overwhelmed by the large numbers of hags and the creatures that they summon.

However, it is the easter egg from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back that makes Bjorn famous. If one takes the tunnel left (towards the storeroom and upper level), to the right is a very small branch tunnel. On the floor is a sword, most of it buried in the snow. Looking up, one is greeted by the skeleton of an unfortunate adventurer who appears to have been captured by the Fryse Hags. In Star Wars, Luke Skywalker was imprisoned in this very way but escaped by using telekinesis (the Force) to grab his lightsaber, cut his icy bonds, mutilate his captor and escape. It seems that the adventurer in this case forgot step one and therefore died. Although not very important, the easter egg is fairly amusing for those familiar with Star Wars.
