Th3Antioch wrote: In the book Pocket Guide to the Empire, Third Edition: Skyrim it mentions Whiterun Hold along with it's neighbor 'Hrothgar'. Is it possible Hrothgar is a different name for a hold like the Rift or the Reach or Falkreath? High Hrothgar is not a Hold, nor is it an alternate name for any known hold. Rather, High Hrothgar is the mountaintop monastery belonging to the Greybeards. If it is part of a Hold and not a neutral location, then I would think that it would be located in Whiterun hold. Also, the guide you read is sort of known to be extremely inaccurate about certain things. While I can not think of a specific example, there are several that I know of.
