The Treasure of the Sharksmouth Mountain Objectives

Find the Inscribed Shield

You can find the solutions to the puzzle in an inscribed shield in the mountain. There is a shield on the ground in the middle of the statues that, when inspected, will tell you where the statues must face. The clue mentions what weapon the knights are wielding, so you will need to figure out what weapons correspond to which statue.

Find the Statues in the Lava Cave

Knight	Statue Location
Ser Cruach	At the end of a stone path, you will find two stone platforms. Have Harding or the Lyrium Dagger raise the platforms, then climb towards the statue. This is the statue of Ser Cruach, who wields a hammer.
Ser Dheon	Defeat the nearby darkspawn and mercenaries before clearing out the Blight Boils surrounding the destroyed house. Inside is the statue of Ser Dheon, who wields a sword.
Ser Rian	Clear out the Blight Boils covering a far section of the wall to reveal another statue. This is a statue of Ser Rian, who wields a bow.
Ser Ifean	Have Lucanis or the Lyrium Dagger summon a platform that you can use to cross a gap. Jump onto a wooden beam and make your way toward the statue of Ser Ifean.Ser Ifean wields a shield.

There are four statues scattered throughout Sharksmouth Cave which will tell you what weapon was equipped to which knight. Once you have all the information you need, return to the four statues and rotate the statues to face the correct way. You can check the shields near the statues to discover who each statue is.

When rotating the statues, follow the directions on the clue with the center of the room as the front.

To solve the puzzle, the stautes must be facing the following directions (from left to right):

• The first statue must be facing front.
• The second statue must be facing the back.
• The third statue must be facing right.
• The last statue must be facing left.

Interact with the statues to to change where they are facing.

Enter the Treasure Room

Once the statues are facing the right direction, you will hear a gate opening in the distance. Make your way to the now unlocked treasure room. The treasure room will contain three chests, including one that contains the Unique Item Meredith's Legacy.
