Orothri Ancestral Tomb

Orothri Ancestral Tomb is a large tomb home to a sacred artifact.

To get here, follow the coast south from Firewatch or north from Helnim and look for the Dunmer stronghold of Mandaran. Walk east along the path leading from this place and you will see the entrance to the tomb on your right.

The location features in the Imperial Cult quest, The Sword of Taldeus, but you can seize this titular object without beginning the quest. To do this, look for the two rooms with barred windows that overlook the main chamber. You'll need to reach the southern one of these room. A sarcophagus on the eastern side of this room bears a triangular button. Press this to open the passage to the main chamber on its western side. In the final chamber you will find the Sword of Taldeus resting beside the bones of Taldys Orothri, a saint of the Imperial Cult.

Other valuables in this chamber include a Glass Sparkcleaver and an Amulet of Slowfalling. Elsewhere in the tomb you can find the Axe skill book 36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 16 (in the southeastern corridor) and an Ebony Dagger, which lies hidden on a ledge in the tall room with barred windows on each side.
