Ilinalta's Deep is the location of the Broken Azura's Star, in the Questline The Black Star. If you enter the area prior to doing so for the quest, the place will be infested with vampires.
History
Ilinalta's Deep was originally an Imperial outpost, until it fell into the river. Rumors told that the area was cursed and many feared to go there. After murdering one of his students at The College of Winterhold, Malyn Varen came to this area to experiment with Azura's Star, hoping to achieve immortality by trapping himself inside the Daedric artifact.
