The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Perched along a steep mountainside northeast of Falkreath, South Skybound Watch is a crumbling Nordic tower that once served as a sentry post overlooking the ancient road to Whiterun Hold. Its base is partially buried by snow and overgrowth, while the upper battlements lie in ruin, open to the cold sky and mountain winds. Despite its decay, the structure still offers a commanding view of the valley below and the distant peaks beyond. The tower is linked to its northern twin—North Skybound Watch—through a long-abandoned mountain path, now blocked by fallen stone and time. Rumors persist of necromancers and wild mages using the ruins for hidden rituals, and strange lights have been seen flickering through the tower at night. For most travelers, South Skybound Watch is just another relic of Skyrim’s long and bloody past—but for the brave or curious, it remains a place where power may still linger among the stones.
