You go to the crypt to the N and to the rear of the barracks. The spectral presence of Queen Nurnhilde is waiting for you.

Talk to Queen Nurnhilde, she tells you to relics you have are very important and when they were removed the draugr were disturbed. You are told that the relics must be returned to the exact spot they were taken from.

Objective: Enter the Royal Tombs
You enter Fort Morvunskar

Objective: Find the First Burial Chamber
When you enter the first burial chamber Queen Nurnhilde will tell you that the old Nord cup should be placed on one of three alters (simple, nondescript and ornate) but she does not know which. She tells you that the cup was to honour those who served the royalty and that you should examine the cup and chose wisely. You may examine (use) the alters to get a fuller description before choosing on which to place the cup.

The cup belongs on the simple alter.

When you enter the second burial chamber Queen Nurnhilde tells you that a book was taken but a page has been torn out. You must find the missing page and return the retored book to the pedestal.

Objective: Return the Nord book
There is a single page on the floor near the brazier to your right. There is a damp page on the floor just in front of Queen Nurnhilde’s ghost. There is a dusty page on low shelving to the NE rear of the burial chamber. There is a dry page on a marble table to the NW rear of the burial chamber. If you talk to Queen Nurnhilde she tells you a number of books were damaged and that someone with your skill should be able to compare the contents of the book to the pages you have found to select the correct page. You should use the various quest items to determine which page belongs in the book, Truth of the North. Use the alter to place the book and select the correct page to go with it.

The dry page belongs in the Truth of the North book.

Objective: Talk to Captain Hamar
After defeating Shukul gro-Aglukyou return to speak with Captain Hamar, who has now retaken and is waiting inside Fort Morvunskar with his men inside just inside the south gate. He tells you how they retook the fort and thanks you for your assistance.

Objective: Talk to Queen Nurnhilde
The quest ends with Queen Nurnhilde thanking you and saying you should keep her amulet so that you will always be connected.

Notes
  • At the time of writing this quest does not lead on directly to Victory at Morvunskar. After talking with Queen Nurnhilde, Lieutenant Koruni who gives you the Victory at Morvunskar quest does not appear to be at Fort Morvunskar.

    Although this quest is not a pre-requisite, within the general storyline of ESO this quest comes before Snow and Flame.
