Stillborn Cave

Stillborn Cave is a cave located in .
==Location==
It is located north of Windhelm. There are two different entrances to the cave itself. Upon entering the more easily accessible end, the Dragonborn arrives in a cavern with a chaurus or a giant frostbite spider down a flight of stairs. If encountered with two chaurus as well as a Falmer, the Dragonborn has entered into the hardest end of the cave first, so be prepared.
==Walkthrough==
When entering from the easier end and turning right, the Dragonborn may encounter a chaurus or a white giant frosbite spider. Further into the cave, there is a room with two Falmers. There are three paths from here. To the right, there is a Falmer chest with loot inside. Next, head to the room forward. There is a room with a Falmer Skulker and random chaurus. The Falmer Skulker may appear with a valuable staff. In the room you can find another Falmer chest with loot inside.
Going back to the room and heading left there is a tripwire triggering a Falmer claw trap. The next room contains a Falmer and two paths. Going right leads to a room with two Falmers waiting to ambush the Dragonborn. Another chest is straight ahead from the entrance.
The leftward path leads to a waterfall walkway where there is a large cavern containing the "boss" for the cave: a leveled Falmer, and two chaurus. On the upper level where the boss Falmer was waiting, there is a final chest.
This is a possible location for Shalidor's writings in the "Shalidor's Insights" quest.
