Trivia[]

  • If the Dragonborn sided with the Forsworn during the quest "No One Escapes Cidhna Mine," the Forsworn in Druadach Redoubt will be friendly. The Forsworn Briarheart can then be killed (considered the "leader" despite Madanach's presence) in front of the others and they will not attack.
