Treva's Watch
Exterior
The fort is located on a path leading from Ivarstead to Riften on the north shore of the Treva river. A camp inhabitted by Stalleo and his two bodyguards is located by a secret back entrance to the fort, which is east of the main entrance. There is a cart containing a food barrel and sack nearby. Speaking with Stalleo, you can offer your services helping reclaim his home. Approaching the fort will cause several bandit archers to fire upon you from the walls. The main courtyard area comprises several levels and is initially occupied by six bandits, including archers and some heavy hitters. If exiting into the courtyard from the main keep, you appear inside a wooden hut with a lever that lowers the spears blocking access to the courtyard for Stalleo and his bodyguards, although you may wish to wait until you've taken care of any remaining bandits, especially at higher levels. Opposite are wooden stairs leading up to the battlement and a campfire with four whole salmon hanging over it, a long wooden table behind with five seared slaughterfish steaks and three bottles of wine. To the right of this is a set of shelves holding two more bottles of wine. To the east are more stairs leading up to a higher level where another campfire has been lit with two lean-tos with unowned bed rolls under them around the fire and an unlocked chest and long wooden table beside one of these.

The entrance from the Escape tunnel leads into a passage that twists and turns, with two bear traps on the floor. Ahead are stairs leading up to a wider passage. Just before the stairs there is an alcove on the left with a short passage opposite that ends at a cave-in. At the top of the stairs is a bandit with a second further back out of sight, but who will be alerted even to a stealthy kill. Where the passage widens there is a cupboard on the left with a long wooden table opposite. On the table is a bucket containing two bottles of wine, while the cupboard holds a knapsack, an iron mace and a woodcutter's axe. The passage continues to the south before a doorway on the right opens into a dormitory where two bandits one sleeping in the first bed, the second standing at the rear of the room.

Continuing along the passage, you pass an alcove on the right containing a set of shelves holding a random sword, mace and bow, two random pairs of boots and a random helmet. Just beyond the alcove the passage turns to the west and passes a doorway on the left, which is where the bandit chief will be found if not previously alerted to your presence. In this room is an unowned double bed, a dresser, a tall wardrobe, an unlocked chest and a long wooden table with a copy of the spell tome: Bound Sword on top. The passage turns to the north at the far end and leads out onto a balcony over a dining room, where three bandits can be seen sitting at a pair of tables laid end-to-end, chatting to each other. On the balcony is a long wooden table with two common books and a goat cheese wedge on top. Further along is a set of shelves holding a leather strip, a leveled potion of strength and a leveled potion of regeneration. To the left are a stack of straw bales with stairs leading down to the left. At the bottom there is a second pair of tables under the balcony with many chairs pulled up to them both. To the left of the stairs is a tall wardrobe containing clothes. To the west is a doorway out into a narrow passage.
There is a cave-in at the south end of the passage. After a few paces north the passage turns west and opens out into a kitchen where two more bandits can be found. There are many tables and small units down the middle of the room with two campfires against the west wall, one has a kettle in the flames and the other has a proper cooking pot over it. On the tables and units are two joints of raw beef, three carrots, an apothecary's satchel, a rack of dog meat, three chicken breasts and a woodcutter's axe.

The passage ends at the other side of the cave-in seen previously. Take care heading west, as just before the corner, there is a pressure plate on the floor that triggers a spike wall hinged on the right wall. Around the corner a narrow passage leads off to the west and climbs a short flight of stairs before opening out into large circular room with a table and set of shelves in the middle, many food barrels in stacks around the outside and a couple of carts on the right. On the set of shelves is a piece of iron ore, six iron ingots and two leather strips, with another piece of iron ore on the table as well.

Partway up the stairs is a bandit standing guard near a long wooden table. They are standing in an oil slick with an oil lantern hanging above. At the top of the stairs is another large circular room, half of which is raised up a couple of feet with stairs at either end. On this raised section you will find the second bandit chief along with one more bandit.

On the lower level between the two flights of stairs is another set of shelves holding several more common books, a pair of leather bracers hidden in a cast iron pot, two sheaves of wheat and a thistle branch. Using the ladder gives you a good sniping opportunity to deal with the remaining bandits outside. There is also an unlocked chest on the roof.
From the bottom of the stairs following the passage to the south you pass two doorways into prison area on your left, where two bandits are found talking. There are two cells; one adept-locked and the other apprentice-locked along the eastern wall. Between the two cells, on a hook on the wall or fallen to the floor is a key that opens the cells. In the center of this room are two long wooden tables side-to-side in the middle, with many empty wine bottles in a stack of open crates beside them and on the floor loose. On the tables are two legs of goat roast, a horse haunch, two bottles of wine and some bread. On the floor, beside the table is a basket of red and green apples.
