Forgotten Names[]
Velehk Sain is a Dremora bound to a Daedric Relic in The Midden beneath the College of Winterhold. If the decision is made to release him, he will provide a map to his treasure. The treasure will not appear until he has been encountered, nor will it appear if he is killed instead of freed.
The map is very misleading. Once at water level, head directly west from the College of Winterhold to a rather flat peninsula that appears to have a path going up it. Walking to either side all the way around the peninsula will reveal a large statue of Talos, and below that on the ground should be the treasure. The peninsula is just southwest of Ysgramor's Tomb. Another way to find the treasure is to stand by the beached rowboat at Pilgrim's Trench and look southeast.

Bugs[]
|
This section contains bugs related to Shrine of Talos: Sea of Ghosts. Before adding a bug to this list, consider the following:
|
- PS3 A Snowy Sabre Cat might spawn nearby, run up and tackle all the booty, making all of it, except the chest, fall through the ground.
- 360 PS3 If Velehk Sain is killed during his dialogue the treasure may not appear, even if the map is in possession.
- 360 If the Dragonborn dies after freeing Velehk Sain and before retrieving the treasure, the quest to get the treasure will leave.
- PC 360 PS3 Sometimes even when you have the map and you have released Velehk Sain the treasure will not appear.
- PC (Fix) This can be fixed by going back to the Midden where the iron fist is and typing the console code
setstage dunMidden01QST 50. Then listen to everything Velehk says and do not attack him. - PC (Fix) Alternatively, one can use the console code
setstage dunMidden01QST 80to have the treasure appear at the location directly. The command must be entered before arriving to the shrine; if entered there, one must leave and return to the location for the Treasure to appear properly. The Treasure will appear whether or not the Dragonborn has the map, and even without starting the quest at all.
- PC (Fix) This can be fixed by going back to the Midden where the iron fist is and typing the console code
- PS3 It is possible to acquire both Velehk Sain's Treasure and all of his available items. By using The Staff of Paralysis (or spell possibly) and the Wabbajack to immobilize him and keep him from reentering oblivion. As soon as the map is given, paralyze then wabbajack then paralyze again.
