The Gutted Mine is a small silver mine high in the Jerall Mountains, southwest of the Shrine of Azura.
It is locked and can only be opened by doing the Azura. The mine is occupied by five vampires called "Afflicted Brethren." It's dotted with eight silver veins and the coffins often contain gold.
After the quest is completed it's only possible to access part of the cave, as a large stone has blocked the corridor halfway in.
Some plants can be found near the entrance: 3 Blood Grass, 1 Milk Thistle, and 6 Wormwood.

Azura[]
Ages ago, five of Azura's followers fought and destroyed the vampire Dratik, but all were infected with Porphyric Hemophilia. Knowing their fate, they locked themselves in the Gutted Mine to prevent themselves from ravaging the world. Azura, caring for her worshipers, wants them killed and freed of the curse.
