Karthwasten is a small mining town on the road between Markarth and Dragon Bridge. As you enter, you’ll see the inhabitants arguing with Silver-Blood mercenaries over the rights to the nearby mines, which you can help resolve in your own way. Other than that mere distraction and the nearby mines, this town has little else to offer adventurers.

o Ainethach (Male Breton, must do the quest “Convince Atar to leave Sauranach Mine” and side with him first).

MISCELLANEOUS QUESTS

Convince Atar to leave Sauranach Mine

You can get this quest after seeing the argument after arriving in town and then talking to Ainethach. Offer to help him with his problem to get this quest. Atar is inside Sauranach mine with several mercenaries. You can try to persuade him (I failed at speech level 37) or just bribe him to get him out. OR you could just attack and kill all of the mercenaries, which if you ask me is always a fun idea. There are four in total, and when you’re done you can loot them and report back to Ainethach for a 600 Gole reward. You’ll also be able to marry him, if you wish.

OR you can work WITH Atar and convince Ainethach to sell the mine. By going this route you’ll need to bribe/persuade/intimidate Ainethach and then report back to Atar that he won’t be a problem. This will get you 600 Gold for your cut and the quest will be done.

Skyrim is the homeland of the Nords, a fierce and proud warrior people who are well suited for the bitter cold and mountainous terrain which defines the land. Now scarred by civil war, Skyrim faces its darkest days with the return of the legendary dragons and their leader, the World-Eater Alduin. The future of Skyrim and even the lands beyond hangs in the balance, as the people await the prophesized Dragonborn, a hero born with the power of The Voice and the only one who can contend with the dragons. You are that Dragonborn; your task is to investigate why the dragons are returning, and discover a way to defeat them. At the same time, you’re free to explore Skyrim at your own pace, uncovering its many wonders along the way.
