Begin the quest by speaking to Jorn, the dwarf located in the Keldagrim Mines, northwest of the Blast Furnace.
Step 1: Uncovering the Mystery
Jorn informs you about strange occurrences in the Northern Lands and asks for your help. Accept the quest and agree to investigate the mysteries of the North.
Step 2: The Hidden Entrance
Head to the North Mountain and search for a hidden entrance. It’s recommended to bring your combat gear as you may encounter aggressive creatures in this area.
