Bring 10 Stalhrim Ore and 15 Ebony Ingots to Halbarn | Other missions TES V: Skyrim - Dragonborn Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Notice! You can complete this mission only after finishing Retaking Thirsk!

Speak with the blacksmith Halbarn in Thirsk Hall to learn that lots of materials are needed to rebuild the forge. Collecting the required amount can take you quite some time, as they are rather rare. What's more, in order to mine the precious Stalhrim, you will need a special tool (it can be obtained during Retrieve the Ancient Nordic Pickaxe).

The locations where you can find Stalhrim are:

• Benkongerike - 3 pieces can be obtained from a sarcophagus in the Great Hall;
• Gyldenhul Barrow - 6 pieces can be obtained from sarcophagi coffins by the entrance;
• Kolbjorn Barrow - 6 pieces can be obtained from two sarcophagi (see: Unearthed);
• Raven Rock Mine - 3 pieces can be obtained from the sarcophagus (see: The Final Descent);
• Stalhrim Source - 30 pieces can be obtained from the sarcophagi (see: A New Source of Stalhrim);
• A small island north of Northshore Landing - 6 pieces can be obtained from the sarcophagi;
• After completing A New Source of Stalhrim, you can visit Baldor Iron-Shaper in Skaal Village - he sometimes has some on sale.

Obtaining 15 Ebony Ingots will also take you a while. There are basically three sources of this material:

• A couple ingots can be bought from the blacksmith Glover Mallory in Raven Rock;
• Quite a bit of ebony can be mined from the Raven Rock Mine (after completing The Final Descent you gain a free access there);
• Ash Spawns can leave behind random material (including ebony ores) - the biggest number or there monsters can be found in the temple in Raven Rock (see: Clear the temple from ash spawn).

Bring Halbarn the required resources to end the mission. Note that from now on the man will become an ordinary blacksmith with whom you can trade. What's more, if you have the Amulet of Mara, you will be able to marry him (both homo and heterosexuals).
