Collect preserved organs for a scholar
Tinzen, representing the Coterie of Organized Scholars, has asked me to recover research sampled [sic] from Dragonhome.


Quick WalkthroughEdit

  1. (Optional) Talk to Nezashul at the Bards College.
  2. Travel to Dragonhome.
  3. Find the preserved eyes, heart and brain.
  4. Return to Tinzen in Solitude.

Detailed WalkthroughEdit

A scholar named Nezashul has requested that someone retrieve preserved organs from the draugr of Dragonhome so he may study how they're kept in good condition. Dragonhome is located on a cliff along the northwestern coast.

The organs you seek can be found in three locations. To begin, head south in the large open-air chamber close to the entrance, and take the southwestern tunnel west until you reach a large chamber. A canopic jar containing preserved eyes is located among the rubble on the edge of the platform where several members of the Dragon Cult are honing their combat skills. Once you have the eyes, head down the stairs in this room and take the hallway leading west. Head north towards the room with water in it, and look for the canopic jar containing a preserved heart in the northern corner of the room. A Dragon Cult Assassin and Battlemage are relaxing near the jar.

Once you've collected the heart, head back west and take the hallway leading north. Take this hall all the way up to the middle-northern room. A canopic jar containing a preserved brain is located in the hallway east of Aspirant Yolstagg and his ritual. Once you've gathered all three preserved organs, return to Tinzen in Solitude to receive payment for your gruesome work.

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
