Walkthough

Speak with Sorine Jurard after returning to Fort Dawnguard with Dexion Evicus and she will tell you to ask Isran about recruiting Florentius Banius. Isran is reluctant at first, but will tell you to search for Florentius in Ruunvald, located in the mountains east of Shor's Stone and north of Riften.

Ruins of Ruunvald

Upon locating Ruunvald, the Dragonborn will find a journal outside hinting at something amiss with the ruins. All of the Vigilants that had been working on the ruins have been subjugated and will attack the Dragonborn on sight. Two Vigilants have Huskies. The ruins contain 3 malachite ore veins and at least 1 lose malachite ore.

Temple of Runnvald

Upon entering the second part of the ruins, the Dragonborn will find Florentius locked in a cage being attacked by Minorne, Moric Sidrey, and a charmed Vigilant. Minorne will have the key to Florentius's cell. After a brief "discussion" with Arkay, Florentius will agree to assist the Dawnguard and will head to Fort Dawnguard.
