Twilight Tomb in Skyrim: how to get through?

Latvia

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has many dungeons that can be encountered both while completing quests and during free exploration of the game world. Most of them are intricate branches of passages and corridors in which you need to solve puzzles and fight enemies that are stronger than you. Below we will look at one of these quest places called Twilight Tomb.

Description of the place

You will get into this dungeon solely through a quest. You need to start completing the Thieves Guild quest line. In one of the quests, the character will be sent to the temple of the Daedric princess Nocturnal, in which he must go through the path of a pilgrim. Your hero will have to try his luck and pass all the tests in order to receive the princess's approval and return to the guild with a completed mission. You must also return the artifact to the tomb. You can gain access inside only with the help of the Skeleton Key, so it is impossible to get into the location without a quest, before and after it. in Skyrim it is located in the Jeroll Mountains near Falkreath. To renew the Thieves Guild's connection with Nocturnal, you will have to return the Skeleton Key to its rightful place. And along the way you will encounter several stages with traps and dangerous enemies. All stages of the tomb can be divided into rooms. We will consider them further.

First, second and third stages

At the beginning of your journey in the Twilight Tomb in Skyrim, you will meet a guard who, in fact, will not tell you any useful information, except for one thing. The guard will recommend that you pick up Nystrom's diary, which describes the features of the pilgrim's path.

At the first stage of passing the Twilight Tomb in Skyrim, you need to fight the shadows of the guards. They attack quickly and loudly, but pose no real danger. Therefore, you can easily cope with such opponents even with average equipment. However, using stealth against them will not work.

The third stage is the corridor. In it you will have to find a lever in the form of chains. They will open a passage, after which all the lights will go out and you will see an open door to the Nocturnal statue.

Fourth and fifth stages

In the last two stages of the Twilight Tomb in Skyrim, the difficulty will increase significantly. First you will find yourself in a corridor with traps, in which you need to find a workaround. However, only heroes with the Master level hacking skill can open it. If you have a Skeleton Key in your inventory, then you will not need this skill.

At the last stage you need to find a well and jump into it. Below, pick up the note on the corpse. The floor of the well will react to the presence of the key, which will lead to the activation of the passage. Several more enemies await you, after which you need to put the Skeleton Key in its place and return home. Now you know how to complete the Twilight Tomb in Skyrim.

Twilight Tomb- Temple of the Daedric Princess Nocturnal, located west of Falkreath. This tomb was built in the Jerol Mountains as a test for those eager to get to the altar of Lady Fortune. For many years, the secret order of Nightingales, the chosen and most faithful followers, guarded the peace of this place. However, shortly before the start of the events of the game, due to the betrayal of one of them, Mercer Frey, the temple was sealed and Nocturnal turned her wrath on the culprits - the Thieves Guild, depriving them of her favor. Only the lonely ghost of Gall, the last of the faithful, waits inside for the one who can correct what he has done. And the Black Lake is silently waiting for the same thing - the door to the Eternal Shadow, incomprehensible to mortals...

This dungeon is only accessible during the quest “Return of Twilight”, in which Dovahkiin must return the Daedric artifact Nocturnal back to her temple. The tomb door can only be opened with the Skeleton Key.

After his return, Nocturnal will return his gift of good fortune to the Guild. Also, the renewed Nightingale triad will be given the right to choose one of three special blessings. And Dovahkiin will be able to return here, if necessary, in order to change this choice.

• Month- the ability to switch to invisibility once a day during a moment of secrecy.
• Half moon- a powerful rage spell (enemies fight each other).
• Full moon- a strong “vampire” energy blow, taking away and transferring to us a serious portion of health (again, once a day).

There is also an alchemical laboratory on the territory of the ruins.

Items

• Lockpicking skill manual "Basics of lock design";
• stealth textbook "Irrefutable Witness";
• Enchantment textbook “Tragedy in Black” - a little north of the tomb, near the sanctuary of Akatosh;
• chest with random contents.

Quests

Notes

• There is a cache in the laboratory, opened with a button in the second room.
• Sometimes it can be difficult to find the levers to open the door in the room with the Nocturnal statue. They are located behind the eagle's heads, to the left and right of the statue ( see screenshot).
• "Nystrom's Diary". His skeleton is located to the left, from the central “alley” in front of the main gate to the tomb.
• On the mountain north of the tomb, in a circle of mushrooms, there is a random staff, a Father of Niben textbook, and a glass arrow.

Bugs

• If the conversation with Gall is interrupted, you just need to talk to him again.
• During the fight with the second Nightingale Guardian, you should not die in a narrow corridor, the save may be damaged.
• Sometimes you can’t talk to Karliah at the end, and without this you won’t be able to leave the tomb. You can wait 24 hours.
• Sometimes the door does not open at the very beginning. It’s worth going around the left corner, there is a hole in the textures (you can use the Swift Dash Shout).
