There is a room with a chest and three chains on the wall. Two of the handles open secret doors leading to some gear and empty coffins. There is a circular stone with three handles in the center of the room. Eventually, one will come to a room with two gates, a large gate to the north and a smaller one to the south. Head left and go up the stairs this leads to a few corridors and rooms containing skeletons.

The first part goes through multiple hallways containing skeletons and vampires, which later leads to a large open area. After it is discovered, it can be fast traveled to. The South Shriekwind Bastion entrance north of Falkreath enters the dungeon approximately halfway through by a hidden door.Īlternatively, the mountain can be climbed a short way through Peak's Shade Tower, which allows Shriekwind Bastion's discovery. The bastion has three entrances, one at South Shriekwind Bastion, one at North Shriekwind Bastion and the exit leads to Shriekwind Bastion Overlook, an unmarked vista point overlooking Falkreath. In the book Opusculus Lamae Bal, her screams became known as the Shrieking Winds, which still haunt certain parts of Skyrim. The ruins are typically inhabited by Vampires, and as such its name can be traced back to the tale of Lamae Beolfag, the first Vampire. It holds a Word of Power for the Dragon Shout Elemental Fury. The bastion is located low on a mountain northeast of Falkreath and west of Pinewatch.
