During his trip, he visited many parts of the homeland of the Nords, met many good and bad people, saw many amazing miracles, and, it seemed, nothing could strike his imagination.
But, as soon as he spoke with a ghost somewhere in the Dwemer ruins, which are scattered throughout the province of Skyrim, where there are fragments of ethereum and how to get into the magic forge, he began to worry more than anything else.
Ghost

Eterium is a rare mineral with magical properties. Katria conducted an entire investigation while trying to find the forge. And the results of the adventures can be found in the diary and the ancient book if you search her rotten corpse. Her body will lie not far from the meeting place with the ghost of an adventurer, down the overturned column, over the abyss. By the way, Katria will kindly offer help in finding the forge. And her tips can be very useful.
First shard
After reading the book and the diary, the hero realized that the entrance to the forge was securely hidden from prying eyes. To get there, you need a special key. Its parts - fragments of ethereum - are hidden in four places. Fortunately, one of them is located here in Arkntamz. True, in order to get it, you will have to activate five locks in a certain order. There is a hint, it is on the last page of Katriaβs diary or on the body of a dead adventurer lying near the gate.
Only after that the hero will be able to pick up the first fragment. He will have to find the remaining fragments of eteria. And although they can be mined in any order, it is unlikely that it will always be as safe.Second shard
Finally he got here. Mzulf is a Dwemer ruin, consisting of four zones. Entrance to them opens only after receiving a certain task, but the hero does not need to get inside. A fragment of ethereum lies in the storeroom of the Dwemer, which is located south of Mzulf.
There are no enemies there. But you can find a lot of Dwemer metal and other valuable items. But most importantly, there will be another key fragment. The difficulty is to open the three castles that separate the splinter from the hero. But he managed, and now fragments of eteria in the amount of two pieces lie in his shabby pocket.

In one of the premises of the city, somewhere at the very end, on the stand, an ethereal fragment will lie, and the ghost of Katria will stand nearby. They are within reach, but the Dwemer sphere and the spider are in the aisle. The hero will have to destroy the obstacle, because only after that he will be able to pick up the fourth part of the key.Itβs done, the fragments of ethereum are collected, now you can collect the key. The spirit of Katria will breathe a sigh of relief and say that everything is almost over, and there remains one, the last stage. And then, offering to meet near the forge, she will disappear again.
Eterium Forge
The Etheria Forge is one of many magical places in the province of Skyrim. Eterium fragments need to be brought here. Here, in the ruins of Btalft, there will be a Dwemer structure in the form of a sphere and an arrow, with a small depression in the middle. There, the hero inserts fragments so that they merge into a certain symbol - the key. After that, the elevator leading to the forge will open, and it remains only to close a couple of valves to block the steam that interferes with the passage.
Having reached the forge, the hero will meet several Dwemer spiders, spheres and a huge centurion attacking with fire. The price of victory is too high, but worth it. When the last enemy falls, he will be able to calmly examine all the chests and collect trophies, and then go to the forge to choose a worthy reward:- Crown of Eteria - allows you to activate two guardian stones at the same time.
- Eterium staff - allows you to call a Dwemer spider or sphere.
- Shield from ethereum - when hit on the shield, the enemy dematerializes for 15 seconds.
For Katria, the best gift would be the completion of her life's work. She will be glad to know that all her theories turned out to be correct and that the forge really exists. After that, she will disappear again, only forever.
