The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Hidden in the craggy hills northeast of Shor’s Stone, near the border of Eastmarch, Cragslane Cavern is a dim, smoke-filled hideout that has been repurposed into an illegal skooma den and pit-fighting ring. From the outside, it appears as a quiet cave tucked into the rocks—but within, torchlight flickers over bloodstained floors, stacked crates of contraband, and crude cages once used for animal fights. Run by bandits and skooma traffickers, the cavern is a hub for illicit trade and underground gambling, drawing smugglers, thugs, and desperate souls alike. During the Climb the Steps quest or upon discovering it independently, the Dragonborn may be called upon to clear out its criminal occupants. Cragslane Cavern is more than just a den of vice—it’s a festering corner of Skyrim’s underworld, where lawlessness thrives in the shadows, and every echo carries the weight of broken oaths and spilled blood.
