"These are the Guardian Stones, three of the thirteen ancient standing stones that dot Skyrim's landscape."
―Ralof/Hadvar[src]

The Guardian Stones are a group of three Standing Stones which can be found along the road southwest of Riverwood.

Location[]

After completing "Unbound," continue to follow either Ralof or Hadvar and they will lead the Dragonborn to Riverwood. The Stones are located southwest of Riverwood, and north-northwest of Helgen close to the river. They consist of the Warrior Stone, the Mage Stone and the Thief Stone.

Quotes[]

Upon accepting and activating one of the Guardian Stones, Ralof or Hadvar will comment on the Dragonborn's decision:

The Warrior Stone[]

  • "Warrior, good! Those stars will guide you to honor and glory." – Ralof
