The Ancient Tale
While at Brodir Grove, you may find an old Nord, in his dwelling there. Initiate a conversation and ask him about his story. He will begin telling you about he and three Nord friends, who were on a conquest to find the entrance to Sovngarde, the divine fortress built by Shor, as a reward to the honourable and the vailant. Legend has it that any man who openly find the gate of Sovngarde will rest in the splendor of the mead halls for an eternity. Along the way, though, Ulfgar's friends met an unfortunate demise at the hands of a sorceror, Grimkell who turned them to stone. He slew this sorceror, but it was too late: His friends were doomed to stand in the Grove, ever watchful. Ulfgar continued his search, in vain, for he never found Sovngarde; Not even in nearly 500 years.

A Nord's Last Request
Ulfgar asks for your aid, but offers no hint whatsoever as to where to start. Even going to the three stones at the Grove (Erlendr, Nikulas, and Hunroor) offers no help. The best thing to do, as with most Miscellaneous Quests, would be to continue until you stumble across any further direction.

Searching, What A Tedious Task
It seems no one is able to help you, for everyone you ask will say that they've never heard of Sovngarde. Where do you look when you want information? In books, of course. The best bet is to find a bookseller; Which may prove to be hard put to such a task, since you're on an island, at any rate. Eventually, you will come to the mead hall of Thirsk, where you will find Bereditte Jastal, a bookseller. You must buy Sovngarde, a Reexamination from him for only 75 gold. The book states that Sovngarde cannot be discovered in the physical world, nor on it's landscape. ONe must die an honourable and noble death to reach the endless halls of Shor.

A One-Way Ticket To The Afterlife
Upon recieving this information, head back to Ulfgar, and give him the book. He acknowledges the message, and aks you to kill him, for the sake of his unfinished quest. Take this moment to make a save game, in the event of death, for Ulfgar is a very strong opponent compared to the enemies of Solstheim. On his dying words, he thanks you. Be sure to pick up his unique weapon, Stormfang.
