When inbound Sovngarde, walk down the stairs, and there will be a Stormcloak Soldier. He will say that he cannot reach the Hall of Valor due to the deadly mist.

Note: I can articulate the mist using the Articulate Skies shout.

Hall of Valor in Sovngarde (Shor's Hall).

Note: the soldier does not always start in the beginning, and there is a skilful chance the soldier will non exist encountered until part way through the mist. Do not worry, the mist will not engulf the Dragonborn, every bit they speak with the soldier.

If the player has killed Ulfric, his soul will be here, saying, "We tin't get anything washed in this fog" and will tell them to turn back. Also, Galmar Stone-Fist can be institute saying, "Dragonborn, even in death you dog my steps?" and "How come you're hither? The rex of this realm volition cast you out - cursed be your proper name by all sons of Skyrim, with scorn unceasing."

Conversely, if they followed the Stormcloak quest, Rikke will exist hither if they killed her.

Also, if they take finished the Companions quests, Kodlak Whitemane volition exist wandering in the fog.

If they have completed the Bards College quest "Tending the Flames," they can see Svaknir, who wrote the verse they retrieved, along their path.

Whalebone Span [ ]

Tsun guards the Whalebone Bridge.

At the end of the path, the Hall of Valor comes into full view. The royal building is situated at the far side of a neat chasm that can merely be reached by crossing the Whalebone bridge.

In front of the bridge stands Tsun, the Nordic god of trials against adversity who will begin dialogue when approached. The first two questions give some background nigh Tsun and his relationship with Shor. He likewise gives some insight into the current situation in Sovngarde. In the last question, Tsun asks why he should allow the Dragonborn entry into the Hall of Valor. The correct of nascency will always be bachelor, however the other options will only appear if the respective society questlines have been completed.

"What brings yous, wayfarer grim, to wander here, in Sovngarde, souls-end, Shor'south gift to honored dead?"

Who are y'all? "I am Tsun, shield-thane to Shor. The Whalebone Bridge he bade me guard and winnow all those souls whose heroic finish sent them here, to Shor's lofty hall where welcome, well earned, awaits those I judge fit to join that fellowship of honour."

I pursue Alduin, the Earth Eater. "A fateful errand. No few have chafed to face the Worm since first he set his soul-snare hither at Sovngarde's threshold. But Shor restrained our wrathful onslaught - peradventure, deep counselled, your doom he foresaw."

I seek entrance to the Hall of Valor. "No shade are yous, every bit usually hither passes, but living, you lot dare the land of the dead. Past what right do you request entry?"

By correct of birth. I am Dragonborn. "Ah! It's been too long since last I faced a doom-driven hero of the dragon blood."

By right of glory. I pb the Companions of Jorrvaskr. "I welcome the chance to challenge the blade of Ysgramor's heir, honored shield-brother/sis to Kodlak Whitemane, whom I've watched for in vain."

By right of cleverness. I am Master of the Higher of Winterhold. "Well met, mage of Skyrim. The Nords may have forgotten their forefathers' respect for the Clever Arts and crafts, merely your comrades throng this hall. Here in Shor's firm we award information technology nonetheless."

By right of blood. I Listen for the Night Mother. "Y'all trespass hither, shadow-walker. Shor does non know yous. Perhaps earlier the cease y'all will earn the right to pass this way. Welcome I do non offer, only your errand I will not hinder, if my wrath you can withstand."

By correct of plunder. I am a Nightingale of Nocturnal. "Practise not mistake the night-shrouded thief's stealthily-taken spoils, stolen and unearned, for a warrior's plunder, won in honorable battle. Your doom already binds you to your dark mistress, but your errand I will not hinder, if my wrath yous can withstand."

Tin can I enter the Hall of Valor? "Living or dead, by prescript of Shor, none may pass this perilous span 'till I gauge them worthy past the warrior's exam."

This prompts a battle with Tsun. When his health reaches about 60%, he will yield and permit the Dragonborn to cross the span to the Hall of Valor. If they endeavor to skip the test, they will die when they walk on the span - even if they have god mode on with console commands.

Note: If the thespian uses mist form as a vampire lord during this boxing he volition yield and allow them to cross^DG

Hall of Valor [ ]

Shor'southward Hall, reserved of the honored expressionless.

Upon entering the Hall of Valor, Ysgramor himself will greet the Dragonborn:

Ysgramor: "Welcome, Dragonborn! Our door has stood empty since Alduin first fix his soul-snare here. By Shor'southward control we sheathed our blades and ventured not the vale's dark mist. But three await your give-and-take to loose their fury upon the perilous foe. Gormlaith the Fearless, glad-hearted in boxing; Hakon the Valiant, heavy-handed warrior; Felldir the Old, far-seeing and grim."

He will instruct the Dragonborn to speak to Gormlaith Golden-Hilt, Hakon One-Eye and Felldir the Old - the 3 heroes who defeated Alduin in the past. Approaching them will initiate the following dialogue:

Gormlaith: "At long last! Alduin's doom is now ours to seal - just speak the word and with high hearts we'll hasten along to smite the worm wherever he lurks."
Felldir: "Concord, comrades - allow us counsel take before battle is blindly joined. Alduin'southward mist is more than a snare - its shadowy gloom is his shield and cloak. But with four voices joined, our valor combined, we can blast the mist and bring him to battle."
Hakon: "Felldir speaks wisdom - the World-Eater, coward, fear yous, Dragonborn. We must drive away his mist, Shouting together, and then unsheathe our blades in desperate boxing with our black-winged foe."
Gormlaith: "To battle, my friends! The fields will repeat with the clamor of war, our wills undaunted."

One time their speech is completed, they volition ready their weapons and charge outside to face Alduin. This completes the quest and begins Dragonslayer.
