The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Tucked into the snowy cliffs southeast of Winterhold, Stillborn Cave is a haunting, frostbitten cavern that winds deep into the frozen earth. Despite its name, the cave is far from lifeless—its icy passages are teeming with danger. Chaurus, Falmer, and their twisted bio-luminescent tunnels dominate the lower depths, marking it as yet another stronghold of the fallen Snow Elves. The upper portions of the cave are eerily quiet, lit by glowing fungi and scattered with signs of failed expeditions—discarded gear, broken weapons, and bones frozen in place. As one descends, the temperature drops and the threats increase, with twisted Falmer architecture and organic chitin structures overtaking the natural stone. Stillborn Cave is a place of cold, silence, and sorrow—where the remnants of a forgotten people fester beneath layers of frost, and where the only warmth comes from the flicker of torchlight in the dark.
