The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Perched on a lonely, windswept plateau in the Velothi Mountains, east of Riften and near the border with Morrowind, the Last Vigil is a solemn and haunting location tied to one of Skyrim’s most tragic figures. This remote, snow-covered camp is the final resting place of Taron Dreth, a Redguard warrior whose shattered armor and lifeless body lie slumped beside a cold campfire, surrounded by silence and snowdrifts. There are no enemies here—only the ghost of a story untold. A nearby chest, scattered belongings, and the serene, isolated setting invite quiet reflection. The location's name hints at sacrifice and solitude, its meaning left to interpretation by the player. Last Vigil is more than a campsite—it’s a place of quiet sorrow, where ambition or duty may have ended in despair, and where the mountains hold the final secrets of a lone soul who stood watch until the end.
