"Mhuvnak was known as one of the most gifted builders of architecture in Dwemereth, greatly expanding their underground kingdom with ingenious constructs until his disappearance on an expedition deep into Nord lands." —Guylaine Marilie

Frostvault is a group dungeon in northern Eastmarch.
It's part of the Wrathstone dungeon pack DLC, along with Depths of Malatar. It is a Dwarven vault buried deep in the mountains of Giant's Run, and one half of the Wrathstone Tablet has been sealed within.
Despite events in Volenfell, the scholar Tharayya refuses to be deterred from her quest for Dwarven relics. Tharayya's research leads her to a long-lost Dwarven ruin buried in a thawing glacier, where the Dwarves secreted away an object of immeasurable importance. Within the complex, a massive vault holds a piece of the legendary Wrathstone, a tablet carved with mysterious and arcane writing. With your help, she'll brave the Frostvault and seek the Wrathstone.
Backstory Description[edit]
- Update 21 Patch Notes
Despite events in Volenfell, the scholar Tharayya refuses to be deterred from her quest for Dwarven relics. Tharayya's research leads her to a long-lost Dwarven ruin buried in a thawing glacier, where the Dwarves secreted away an object of immeasurable importance. Within the complex, a massive vault holds a piece of the legendary Wrathstone, a tablet carved with mysterious and arcane writing. With your help, she'll brave the Frostvault and seek the Wrathstone.
Locked away deep within the glaciers of Eastmarch, the frozen entrance to the Dwarven Vault of Mhuvnak has thawed, finally allowing explorers, adventurers, and treasure hunters to enter. Already on the scene, Redguard scholar and archeologist Tharayya needs your help to breach the Frostvault … A vault buried deep within the glacial rifts of Eastmarch has its own inherent dangers, but Frostvault's defenses also stand ready to test you and your group. Relentless Dwarven automatons, deadly traps, and the Coldsnap Goblin tribe bring more than a few surprises for unsuspecting adventurers … The Dwarves hid their half of the Wrathstone tablet for a reason, but don't let the Frostvault's frozen defenders stop you from claiming your prize. Are you willing to venture deep into the ice, fight past Mhuvnak's defenders, and plunder the vault?
