Notable Items

• A copy of the Archery skill book The Marksmanship Lesson can be found in a side room a couple of rooms past the kitchen, in a room with a trapped chest.
• A copy of the Lockpicking skill book Proper Lock Design can be found on a table at the top of one of the outer towers
• A copy of the Alteration skill book The Lunar Lorkhan can be found on a shelf at the top of one of the outer towers

Notes

• A large number of wolves are found in the fort; most are locked in cages, but will attack immediately if you release them.
• One circular room holds a caged pit, presumably where wolf fights are staged. In this room there is a master-locked cage with considerable loot (mostly gold) inside.
• A huge amount of dog meat can be found in the kitchens, and throughout the fort. Reading the cook's journal will provide insight into the abundance of sub-standard meat.
• The entire dungeon can be bypassed through a series of locked doors leading up to the tower.
• The bandit chief of the fort has a unique bit of dialogue, in that he might say "So you're the one who's been down there killing all my wolves. You're gonna die for that!"
• One silver ore vein is located 210 ft north of the fort's tower, on the far side of the rocky area there.
• The location of the highest tower can be tricky to find. Once you are in the exterior middle section of the fort, follow the northern wall down a short set of wooden stairs and veer left (north) to a wooden door. A key for this door is found on a long wooden table in a large tent located near the top of the fort's exterior. There is an active campfire adjacent to the tent.

Bugs

• Occasionally in the chamber where the pit fights are held, the door to the caged bar/bookie area will be open/unlocked and one of the two cells (one of which holds the corpse of a dark elf) will have a master level lock (despite holding little to no loot). ^?
