Nettlebane

"You'll have to deal with the Hagravens. I've heard about a weapon they've made for sacrificing Spriggans. It's called "Nettlebane.""

- Danica Pure-Spring

Nettlebane is a dagger in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Description
Nettlebane is a unique weapon that is part of the quest The Blessings of Nature given by Danica Pure-Spring at the Temple of Kynareth in Whiterun.

Location
Danica asks the Dragonborn to travel to Orphan Rock in search of the dagger. There, a Hagraven is sacrificing a number of Spriggans with the blade, defended by several hags and witches. Once obtained from the Hagraven, the Dragonborn must bring the blade back to Danica Pure-Spring. She then sends the Dragonborn to Eldergleam Sanctuary to obtain Eldergleam Sap.

Lore
According to legend, Nettlebane is the only weapon old enough to cut through the bark of the Eldergleam Tree since the tree is older than the existence of metal itself and thus is unharmed by other weapons. Danica Pure-Spring needs the sap from the Eldergleam to restore the Gildergreen Tree in the center of Whiterun's Wind District to its original glory.

Upgrade Material
Nettlebane may be upgraded at a grindstone with Ebony Ingots; however, this action is not affected by the Ebony Smithing perk.
