Legend has it that the excavation of Wansalen was halted, and the halls abandoned, when the Elven miners roused and angered an ancient rock-spirit called a Gheatus. But the wise Sapiarchs of the Crystal Tower dismiss this story as a fable with no truth to it.
Wansalen

Wansalen is an Aldmeri ruin in northeastern Auridon, on the western edge of Quendeluun containing Ebonheart Pact soldiers and undead. The tunnels are off limits to the First Auridon Marines as they are prone to collapse. As a result, forces of the Pact have been using the tunnels as a base of operations on Auridon.

To reach the skyshard, go straight into the large room with two staircases, follow the watery path south, and head to the corner of the west room between two guards.

LayoutEdit

The Supplementary Orders are laying on the ground next to a dead Argonian at the entrance. When you enter the first large chamber, you'll find that some of the Argonian, Dunmer, and Nord soldiers scattered across the floor of the ruin aren't sleeping quietly: they'll rise as zombies and attack you. Another copy of the orders can be found atop a crate near the stairs descending into this chamber, and a chest can spawn in the nook with the campfire to the right as you approach this stairwell.

Another chest can spawn against the northernmost wall in the first chamber, behind a stone altar with a skeleton on top of it. Zombies fill the central and southern halls, accessible via the staircase on the west side of the room. If you loop back around to the east side of the map while traversing this hallway (just keep going straight instead of turning right to enter the delve boss' room), you'll find the remaining members of the Ebonheart Pact's expedition to Wansalen holed up in a room.

The Skyshard can be found off to the side in the corridor with water.

The southernmost chamber contains a garden as well as the delve boss: a necromancer named Nolonir. A chest can spawn beside a pillar immediately to the right of his ritual site.
