"Like the old Deep Folk, the Nords seek to dig up the blood of the Reach. We've always known magic sleeps in these stones, but only a fool would break them. Our place is to listen to the song of the earth and the beating of the heart." —Shaman Ulvoch
Entrance to Sanuarach Mine

Sanuarach Mine is an abandoned mine found in Karthwasten. It was originally excavated by the Nords who lived in the village, before the area was reclaimed by the Reachfolk of the Crow-Eye Clan. The clan chose to leave the mine untouched.

However, unbeknownst to them, the Gray Host discovered that netherroot, a plant integral to the creation of harrowstorms, grew inside the mine. Thus, they tunneled inside from Blackreach to cultivate it right under the nose of the clan.

During the related quest, a ritual to restore the village's wards fails, and evidence gathered points to the cause of it coming from Sanuarach Mine. You and Apprentice Fialyn will need to enter the mine and investigate.

Your delve begins in a mushroom laden corridor covered in cobwebs. You'll descend into a large chamber riddled with wooden scaffolds and populated by Gray Host vampires. Climbing the scaffolding to the south in the first large room will lead you into a tunnel with a netherroot vine. Two vampires are empowering a gargoyle in the next room. Killing one of the vampires will awaken the gargoyle.

Through the northern tunnel lies a fork in the road: turning left will bring you to a large two-story room with a gargoyle on the upper level. Another gargoyle ritual is taking place in the middle of the staircase. There's a tunnel leading north out of the second floor into a furnished section with wooden walls.
