Description

Just west of Whiterun along the road to the Reach, the Western Watchtower stands as a weathered stone outpost overlooking the plains. Once a routine guard post for Whiterun Hold, its high walls and central fire pit served as a lookout for bandits, wild beasts, and potential threats from the west. In recent times, the tower gained notoriety as the site of one of Skyrim’s first known dragon attacks in the Fourth Era, leaving part of it scorched and crumbling. Despite the damage, it remains partially manned by Whiterun’s guards and now serves as both a symbol of vigilance and a grim reminder of the return of the dragons. The land around it bears the scars of fire and claw, but the tower still stands—scarred, but unyielding.
