Broken Helm Hollow is a small cave located on the southeast side of the mountain southeast of Riften.

Description[]

The entrance is to the left of a large waterfall that is the location for the treasure marked by Treasure Map IX. There are two bandit guards outside with another three along with their leader inside. There are two corundum ore veins in the cave. One located north of the cooking place and the other is located in a torture room behind a secret door, which is opened wit a pull-chain near the rear of the cave.

Whirlwind Sprint can be used to run from the ramp up to the chest area to the rock shelf on the northwest side of the cave where there are two imp stool nodes and a Namira's rot node.

The location is one of the locations in the area that is closest to the Morrowind border.
