Not to be confused with Drelas' House.

Drelas' Cottage is a small dwelling in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

It is a small cabin located west of Hamvir's Rest, south of Morthal, in the vale between the mountains. The cottage's owner, Drelas, is a Dunmer mage specializing in dark magic. If he detects the Dragonborn he will become hostile and attack. He uses Firebolt, Lightning Bolt and frost spells, but Ice Spike appears to be the most common.

Notable items

An arcane enchanter and an alchemy lab are inside, along with plenty of ingredients for potions. A chest containing the mage's valuables can be found upstairs. Outside the cottage there is a small vegetable garden and a chicken's nest with three chickens. It is also possible to receive Meridia's Beacon from the chest in his upstairs bedroom.

Trivia

  • A Dragon often spawns flying outside the cottage due to Eldersblood Peak being located nearby, which leads to a word wall, just up the hill northwest of Drelas' Cottage. As with many other Word Walls, there is a dragon guarding it.
  • Even if Drelas is killed, all the items will be marked as "stolen". However this location can serve as a storage area at earlier levels thanks to the various facilities or can even serve as a standard house if the player elects not to be a Thane of any Hold.
