Description

Hidden beneath the rocky slopes near the Thalmor Embassy, Reeking Cave is a damp, foul-smelling cavern tucked away from view, its entrance sealed by moss and shadow. The air inside is thick with decay and mildew, and the narrow tunnels echo with the dripping of stagnant water. Bones litter the floor—some animal, some not—and the walls are slick with grime, making every step feel uncertain. Used secretly by the Thalmor as a hidden escape route or holding cell, the cave once held prisoners deemed too inconvenient for diplomacy. It also houses a troll, drawn to the filth and darkness, making it dangerous for any who stumble upon it unprepared. Despite its small size, Reeking Cave is steeped in secrecy and menace—a place of silence, rot, and forgotten lives left to wither in the dark.
