Detailed Walkthrough

Here There Be Dragons

After your adventures at Whiterun's Western Watchtower during Dragon Rising, a proliferation of dragons are about. In your travels, ask an innkeep, jarl or steward for some work. You will learn that a dragon has been harassing travelers and citizens around its lair, and the jarl of the hold has put out a bounty on the dragon. You are an enterprising sort, with newly acquired dragon soul absorbing powers and shouts, so take up the job.

The Dragon Hunter

Seek out the offending dragon in its lair. There is a wide variety of dragon that you may encounter in each lair you visit. Once defeated, and the dragon soul is absorbed, be sure to remove the dragon bones and dragon scales. These are quite valuable in the local shops, and later, can be used to improve dragonbone and dragonscale armor.

The Bounty

Once the dragon is dead, you will be directed to the jarl or steward of the hold to receive your payment.

Notes

• If you are tasked to kill a dragon at a lair that you have already cleared, the dragon there will respawn.
• You need to have completed Dragon Rising first before receiving this quest.

Stage	Finishes Quest	Journal Entry

• The following empty quest stages were omitted from the table: 0, 200.

 

Notes

• Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, 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.
• If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
• On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage BQ04 stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest using resetquest BQ04.
