Ancient's Ascent
The route to the wall is through Bonechill Passage, a short cave. It can also be accessed by using a horse to climb the mountains around the area. There are three snowberry plants to the right of the path after exiting Bonechill Passage. There are a couple of wide flights of stairs leading up to a plateau in front of the word wall, with lit braziers at the bottom and top of each flight. There is the remains of a huge arch on the approach and the dragon's chest sits by the base between two short flights of stairs leading up to the wall. Once the Dragon Rising quest has been completed a leveled dragon guards the word wall and will attack as soon as you approach from the cave.
The word wall teaches part of the Animal Allegiance dragon shout.
Notes
- It is one of the locations suggested by Marise Aravel as a place to find ice wraith teeth for her quest.
- Climbing the rocks behind the wall provides a shortcut to Bloodlet Throne.
