Irkngthand Thief Home


Archontic

Recommended Posts

I've just finished the Thieves Guild quest line for the fourth time, and it has suddenly occurred to me that the Irkngthand (particularly the sanctuary), with a little sprucing up (draining the water, fixing the pipes, shoveling up the dirt, etc;) would make a fantastic home. It's roomy, and there's a quick exit via Bronze Water Cave just west of Windhelm. A great little hideout, and in my opinion the perfect real reward for completing the Thieves Guild quest line.

 

It's also worth mentioning that the "Eyes of the Falmer" statue is arguably all that's left of what they once were. I don't know about you, but I haven't encountered any Falmer ruins, or any indications as to what they were actually like before the Dwemer enslaved them, save a couple of brief books. I think the statue is incredibly important, and it's easy to forget just how significant it must have been to them. It's all that's left of their identity. Plus, it amazing, and you don't see it anywhere else.

 

If you wanted to fill it with more stuff you could either hollow out a tunnel or two, or use wooden ramps leading up to a suspended wooden cabin of some sort. Either way, it seems like a brilliant location to me.
