Deep Folk Crossing is a Dwemer Ruin and landmark located in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

It is an ancient Dwemer bridge located northeast of Markarth. It lies close to the border of High Rock.

HistoryEdit

Originally, this was the location of the Dwemer city of Bthar-zel, which translates to "allied city",^[1] however only the bridge and a few ruins remain. The name "Deep Folk" is the translation of the word "Dwemer",^[2] however it's unknown if this alludes to anything other than the origin of the bridge itself.

QuestsEdit

Arniel's EndeavorEdit

Arniel requires the Dragonborn to locate a Dwemer Convector, which can be found on the other side of the bridge.

Lost to the AgesEdit

This is one of four locations in which an Aetherium Shard can be found, which are associated with the quest, Lost to the Ages, added by The Elder Scrolls V: Dawnguard.

Notable itemsEdit

This location includes a Dwemer shrine, usually adorned with a Dwarven Helmet and a leveled weapon.

TriviaEdit

• In a random encounter, the Dragonborn meets two children, Sond and Bottar. They are willing to mark this location on the map for a small fee.
