Breaking the Siege of Kvatch Walkthrough

1 Enter the Oblivion Gate

Make sure to prepare before entering the Oblivion Gate, as you'll face a lot of enemies inside. When you're ready, approach the gate to enter the Plane of Oblivion.
2 Reach the Blood Feast

Once inside the Plane of Oblivion, head northwest. You can use the Clairvoyance spell to guide you to your next objective.

Along the way, you may encounter Ilend Vonius under attack. Help him, and he’ll join you on your journey.

Continue uphill until you reach the Tower Portal to The Blood Feast. Inside, you'll find Magicka Essences that replenish your Magicka. Make good use of them, especially if you're playing as a Mage.
3 Head to the Repears Sprawl

Climb your way up through The Blood Feast, fighting enemies along the way. Take the door on the west side to enter the Rending Halls.

Navigate through the halls, avoiding or defeating the Frost Atronach and Kynreeves you encounter.

Proceed forward until you reach a door leading back into The Blood Feast, then take the stairs and enter the Corridors of Dark Salvation on the south side.

Keep moving forward, then head outside. Cross the walkway and enter the Reaper's Sprawl.
4 Take the Key from the Keeper

Inside the Reaper's Sprawl, defeat the Dremora Sigil Keeper. He’s a tough enemy, so watch out.

After defeating the Keeper, loot his body to obtain the Sigil Keep Key.
5 Speak to the Prisoner

Speak to Menien Goneld, who is imprisoned in a cage. He will tell you to go to the top of the Sigil Keep to close the Oblivion Gate.
6 Reach the Sigil Keep

Head back to the Dark Salvation and use the key to open the Citadel Hall Door on the north side of the area. Take the stairs until you reach a door that leads back into The Blood Feast.

Make you way upstairs and interact with the Ruined Portal. This will teleport you to the other side of the area, closer to the Sigil Keep.

Keep going up until you reach the door to Sigillum Sanguis. Use the key to open it and enter. Inside, you'll find a Blood Fountain that restores Health. Make sure to use it before proceeding.
7 Activate the Sigil Stone

Climb the ramps to reach the top, where you'll see a Sigil Stone in the center of the chamber. Watch out for the Dremora guarding it.

Interact with the Sigil Stone to close the Oblivion Gate. The tower will then collapse, and you’ll be teleported back to Kvatch.
8 Return to Savlian

Now back in Kvatch, speak with Savlian and report that you’ve closed the Oblivion Gate.
9 Clear the Enemies in Kvatch

Join Savlian and his soldiers as they advance into Kvatch. Help them defeat the enemies in the area.

Once the area is cleared, enter the Chapel of Akatosh and talk to Savlian again. This completes the Breaking the Siege of Kvatch quest and unlocks the The Battle for Castle Kvatch side quest, which you can take on at any time.
