Fellglow Keep is a huge fort east-northeast of Whiterun, and home to a group of renegade mages from the College of Winterhold.

The fort consists of three sections: Fellglow Keep Dungeons, Fellglow Keep, and Fellglow Keep Ritual Chamber. Part of Fellglow Keep and all of Fellglow Keep Ritual Chamber are only accessible during the Hitting the Books quest. The keep can be reached by following a path from the northern Valtheim Tower.

Exterior

There are two Mages and a flame atronach guarding the exterior of the keep. One of the mages is standing lookout on a damaged tower, while the other is standing by a campfire near the main entrance to Fellglow Keep. It is initially locked and requires a key to enter. The flame atronach is to the southwest, near an entrance to Fellglow Keep Dungeons, which is the entrance you will have to enter and navigate from to reach the interior of the keep. There is a long wooden table to the right of the main entrance with a haunch of horse meat, a bottle of ale, a portion of grilled leeks, a small coin purse and a sprig of frost mirriam on top. There is a small vegetable patch to the east of the campfire. It consists of a potato plant, three leeks and seven cabbages. There is a chicken wandering the area and to the southeast a shallow pool that contains a salmon.

Fellglow Keep Dungeons

The entry leads into a narrow passage that has suffered quite a lot of damage, with fallen stones blocking part of a short flight of stairs leading down to the east. There is a dresser and barrel on your immediate left with a common book and an iron dagger on top, while on your right is a bucket containing two samples of scaly pholiota fungus. There are numerous barrels and sacks containing ingredients and food throughout the dungeon and keep. At the bottom of the stairs there is an iron battleaxe on the ground. The passage enters a small room that is partially flooded, where a Nordic barnacle is growing on some masonry on the ground, while amongst some rubble on the right is an iron mace. The passage continues to the southwest, through an open door. There is a bear trap in front of the door with a second trap a short way along the next passage. Ahead is another partially flooded room, this one has a balcony to the left where an ice mage is standing on guard with two frostbite spiders. There are two more Nordic barnacles and three slaughterfish egg clusters in this room as well as at least four salmon swimming in the flood water. There are many crates and unusable barrels around the room, on the balcony and throughout the dungeon and keep, with many items of clutter among them. There are stairs along the rear wall leading up to the balcony. In the southern corner is a long wooden table with a goat hide, bottle of ale, portion of grilled leeks, and an iron dagger on top. Behind the table, among thick cobwebs is a blue butterfly wing, while beside it is a counter with two petty and a random empty soul gems and common book on top. In front of the counter is a pair of iron boots and a basket containing a leg of goat. Against the northeast wall is a set of shelves holding a potion of healing, a potion of minor magicka, five common books, a leather strip, three bottles of alto wine and four bottles of wine. To the left is a small square table with two more common books and a random pair of gauntlets on top, while to the right of the shelves are two pieces of firewood.

To the southeast is a passage leading down a few steps to a T-junction with a pressure plate on the ground. This triggers a poison dart trap from the right. Passageways lead to the left and straight on. The latter ascends a few steps before turning to the right. There is an end table by the turn with a random potion of stamina on top. Around the corner is a closed wooden door into a small room containing an apprentice-locked chest, a set of shelves holding an iron cuirass, a random cuirass and an iron warhammer, with a random shield in front. Beside this is another small end table with a leather strip on top.

Back at the junction, take care as a few paces along the passage to the left is a shock rune trap on the ground (Note: this rune has been reported to be invisible at times, so tread carefully; additionally, if you trigger it from a distance, it may alert the mage in the next room). Beyond this is a food barrel with a flute on top by an open door that leads into a larger room with four cells along the far wall. To the right of the door is a torture rack and hanging from the ceiling is a small cage. There is a mage around the corner to the right. Three of the cells have captive leveled vampires locked in them. You can either kill each of the vampires with ranged magic or a bow, or if you unlock the cells they will rush through the door to the southeast and attack a group of mages that have been performing dissections on a pair of master vampires, a Khajiit and Nord. The vampires will then leave the dungeon without attacking you (unless you attack them first). The cells are all apprentice-locked and can either be lockpicked or on the southeast wall, to the right of a wooden door are four levers that each open one of the cells. The vampires may be carrying useful items including potions. There is a steel warhammer leaning against the wall by the rack. Under the levers is a dresser with a set of clothes and a hat on top. To the right of this is a long wooden table with an iron dagger, a common book, a salt pile, five loose septims and an emerald, some of these are in a wooden bowl. Beside the table is a set of shelves holding a random mace, a medium coin purse, two common books, a bottle of alto wine, a bottle of wine, and two bottles of ale. Against the northwest wall, beside some rubble from a cave-in is a stack of crates with an iron war axe on top.

The next room contains three mages, who will be dealt with by the vampires if you released them, otherwise you may be in for a difficult fight. There are four wooden tables in the room with experiments on top; two with dead master vampires on top, against the northwest wall and in the middle of the room between two pillars, a third with a dead Khajiit on top against the southeast wall and the final table against the northeast wall with a dead Nord on top. The first three have leveled mages standing beside them. On you right as you enter is a table with a set of working shackles on top and beside this, against the southwest wall is a set of shelves holding four books and a pair of iron gauntlets. To the left is a passage that has caved-in with a patch of Namira's Rot fungus growing among the rubble and to the left of this is a stack of crates with an iron mace on top. In the northern corner is a cupboard with two common books and a salt pile on the shelves. There are three small cages hanging from the ceiling, one in the southern corner has a dead Khajiit inside, while the others contain only bones. Along the northeast wall is a wooden block with an iron dagger and a salt pile on it, another set of shelves holding six more books and a bowl of bone meal, and a dresser containing clothes with a random potion of healing on top.

To the left of the Khajiit against the southeast wall are two more sets of shelves holding four more books, a filled common soul gem and a swample of bleeding crown fungus. There is a barrel with a salt pile on top.

Through the door is another caved-in passage with a flight of stairs descending on your right.

This next room is circular with one mage on guard opposite by a large fireplace. There is a random pair of boots on the hearth and a long wooden table to the right. On the table is an iron dagger, a leather strip and some bread and cheese. Opposite the fireplace, against the wall is a set of shelves holding clutter and a random empty soul gem. Beside this is another woodcutter's axe. There are two barrels to the left of the fire with a random helmet on top. There are three levers in the middle of the room that open the three cells to the east, southeast and south. Orthorn is in the middle cell and two wolves are in the furthest cell unless the mage is able to release them to aid him in fighting you. You can choose whether or not to release Orthorn and even if you take pity on him you are not required to allow him to accompany you. In the northern corner of the cell containing the wolves there is a medium coin purse it is difficult to see due to cobwebs.

There are three doors from this room not including the entrance you used. The door to the west opens into a small storeroom containing an apprentice-locked chest, a sideboard with an iron warhammer, an iron greatsword and a pair of iron gauntlets on top and a set of shelves holding a common book, a thistle branch, a salt pile, medium coin purse, a bottle of wine and a random potion.

The next section is brightly lit and there is a small unit with a bunch of jazbay grapes and a leather strip on top. The passage descends a flight of stairs to the northwest. You can hear someone receiving instruction ahead.

Fellglow Keep Ritual Chamber

The door opens into the Ritual Chamber, where you will finally find The Caller. Regardless of whether you are sneaking you will be instantly spotted and she will initiate a conversation. She is the leader of the group of renegade mages, and is quite upset over your presence and the destruction you have caused. She also possesses the three books that you require for the Hitting the Books quest that are located within this room. The books you seek are on three plinths, one in the center of the room and two in the center of alcoves behind.

Your options are essentially:

  • Fight The Caller: either through certain dialogue options, by attacking her, or by picking up one of the quest books;
  • Trade the books for Orthorn: through some dialogue options, The Caller will offer the books in exchange for your companion; if you accept, Orthorn will walk back to the keep, while you may pick up the books and leave without a fight. If Orthorn is not with you, and you tell her "Maybe we can come to an arrangement," she replies that you have nothing she is interested in.
  • Persuade her to give you the books: She will then let you pick up the books without fighting;
    • If you successfully persuade The Caller, Orthorn will act as if you accepted her trade, saying "How could you leave me here?" and walking off into the keep.

She will raise a Frost Thrall to aid in fighting you and will teleport each time you close with her and deal damage, have a follower or raising your own atronach can greatly help in the battle. Once she is dealt with collect the books Fragment: On Artaeum, The Last King of the Ayleids and Night of Tears. The Caller carries a Fellglow Ritual Chamber Key that opens a door to the northwest where you will find a boss level chest with a random shield leaning against it, a cupboard to the left holding a random helmet, a bowl hiding a bowl of bone meal, a bulb of garlic, a satchel, five soul gem fragments, a random filled soul gem, a copy of The Wolf Queen, v8, a random potion of healing, and a random potion. Beside the cupboard is a soul gem stand holding a random empty soul gem. To the right of the chest are two barrels of ingredients and beside them is a stack of crates with a sheaf of wheat, a medium coin purse and a gourd on top. There are a couple of food sacks among some rubble on the left and a trapdoor that opens a room in Fellglow Keep. The room has a door that is barred from this side. Through this is the two leveled rooms seen previously. The door opposite leads outside via the main door that was previously locked.

If Orthorn helped you, after the fight, Orthorn may tell you he will stay away from the College for a while, and leave you.

Notes

  • The room across from The Caller can't be opened unless you have the Fellglow Ritual Chamber Key. This key can't be pickpocketed and can only be obtained by killing The Caller or by using the Wax Key perk on the vampires' cells in Fellglow Keep Dungeons. However, the door bar after exiting through the trapdoor can be lifted from the opposite side, enabling access to the treasure room before even meeting The Caller.[verification needed — see talk page]
  • As soon as you turn in the quest Hitting the Books, the upper part of the castle will be blocked, and more enemies will have spawned. If entered through the main entrance to Fellglow Keep (after you obtained the key) you end up directly in the living quarters. Right up the stairs there is the room to the right where some smithing equipment and an enchanter is found. The other two passages to the upper part of the castle are blocked by collapsed ceilings.
  • You cannot clear this location during Hitting the Books since the boss is disabled for the duration of the quest.
  • The insurgent mages do not share factions with the permanent Atronachs both inside and outside of the keep. It's possible for the mages to detect you without alerting the Atronachs, or the Atronachs attacking you on their own.

Bugs

  • If you clear out Fellglow Keep before you accept the quest Hitting the Books, during the quest the game will crash when trying to enter the dungeon.
    • Ficheiro:Pc22.pngTo avoid this, enter coc FellglowKeep03 in the console, then complete the quest Hitting the Books, and use the console again to exit the keep (e.g., coc Riverwood).
