Skyforge (Skyrim)

The Skyforge is an ancient forge located next to Jorrvaskr in Whiterun in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

History
Not much is known about this location, but the forge is said to be older than men and elves. Ysgramor and the original 500 Companions heard about its existence from captured Snow Elves and traveled here to take its power for their own. Here they settled and built Jorrvaskr.

The Underforge
Under the Skyforge is the Underforge where The Circle meet and pray to Hircine. There is also a passage to the right of the stone bowl that leads to a secret exit out of the city. It is here that Companions are indocterined into the Circle by a blood ritual involving Aela the Huntress and Skjor.

Resident Blacksmith
The forge is used mainly by blacksmith Eorlund Gray-Mane to craft armor and weapons for the Companions. Completing the quest Proving Honor will allow the player to receive a skyforged weapon of his/her choice, handcrafted by Eorlund.

Here is a list of the skyforge weapons Eorlund has for sale.
