Yngvild

Description
Yngvild is an isolated ice cave situated on an island directly east of Dawnstar. The Necromancer Arondil has taken refuge here, having been evicted from Dawnstar after the towns populace found his experiments in Necroanimus to be less than tasteful.

It can be postulated that Yngvild was once a barrow for ancient Nordic Battlemaidens as it was found by Arondil to be uniquely populated with the corpes of only female warriors. Through successful experimentation, Arondil now has a formidable, purely female, Draugr force at his command.

Additionally, Arondil has perfected a means to reanimate freshly dispatched mortals into a uniquely spectral minion. The Yngvild Ghosts are, in fact, Dawnstars young milkmaids that had either stumbled upon or were collected by Arondil and summarily reincarated to do his evil, and evidently, perverse biddings.

Scattered throughout the cave are Arondil's Journals, which chronicle his endevours more completely. The journals are a subject of intrest to parties of Vekel the Man of the Thieves Guild and can be retrieved as part of a miscellaneous objective for reward.

Enemies

 * Arondil the Necromancer: A highly skilled Ice mage. Is capable of dealing significant Frost damage and slowing movents to a crawl. Paralyze and Slow can be used to good effect.
 * Yngvild Ghosts- note, at the last room where Arondil and his favorite ghost are, if you sneak past them and take the greater soul gem on the pedestal, then the ghost will attack and kill Arondil for you. But then she will attack you.
 * Draugr

Notable Loot

 * Arondil's Journal (Parts 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 )
 * Stone of Barenziah in the Final room next to the last journal on the desk.
