Hall of Stories

Hall_of_Stories.jpg Hall of Storie
These halls are not exactly a location, but a re-occuring room found in some nordic ruins. These are large, open hallways with puzzle doors at the end. These puzzle doors each correspond with a claw and a combination. The combination for the door is found on the bottom of the claw, as explained by the journal of Arvel the Swift. There are only 11 of these halls in Skyrim, yet the treasures beyond them are generally important to the story or of great value, such as the dragonstone, a way to reach Sovngarde or even an incredibly rare Dragon Priest Mask. The Dragonborn will also come across a Hall of Stories while fighting in the civil war. The walls of these hallways tell many stories, as the name suggests. One image seems to depict many Draugr bowing towards an almighty Dragon Priest.
