The Sleeping Tree

Quick Walkthrough

1. Investigate Sleeping Tree Cave.
2. Search Ulag's corpse for Ysolda's Message.
3. Speak to Ysolda in Whiterun.

Detailed Walkthrough

Travel to Sleeping Tree Camp and find the cave inside the camp, northwest of the Sleeping Tree. Enter the cave and start your investigation. It would be a wise choice to leave the giants and their herd mammoths in peace, especially if you are low level. Move swiftly and enter the cave before they turn hostile to you.

Ulag's corpse can be found on a stone inside the cave with a giant wandering nearby. Search his body, where you'll find Ysolda's Message and a sample of Sleeping Tree Sap. If you don't want to fight the giant, get out of the cave with the message as quickly as possible. After reading the message, you'll get an idea about what caused Ulag's death. There was an arrangement between Ysolda and Ulag for purchase of the sap, which Ulag would obtain from the Sleeping Tree. Unfortunately, he risked the wrath of the giants one too many times, and ended up paying with his life.

Travel to Whiterun and speak to Ysolda about the note you found. Ysolda will quickly realize what happened and offer you the same arrangement she had with Ulag, 150 gold for each sample of sap you bring to her. She'll be satisfied with the deal and remind you "Be sure to bring any more Sleeping Tree Sap you find to me." You may also ask her for more information about the Sleeping Tree itself.

Notes

• The Official Skyrim Patch 1.5 makes Ysolda essential (to alleviate issues with the A Night To Remember quest, though it also prevents you from accidentally failing this quest as well).

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 dunSleepingTreeCampQST 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 dunSleepingTreeCampQST.
