This time, cast any frost spell at the book or pedestal to receive the next clue: Over western river waters, By Karth bounded, south and north On mountains sits a humble crown. It is easiest to get there from Orphan Rock, as it is within sight of the fast travel point. The second pedestal is found at North Skybound Watch, another barrow on the southwestern slope of the Throat of the World, not far northeast of the starting town of Helgen. Here unleash a chilling cry And gild this stand with frost.

Pick up the book again, and you will notice it has acquired a new page: Under Greybeards' morning shadow At this northern watch, long lost Nirn's hoary Throat does scrape the sky. Once you have done so, cast any fire spell at either the book or pedestal. Inside the barrow is a pedestal upon which you can place the book. This clue points to Windward Ruins, a small barrow just southwest of Dawnstar. At this stand wield mage's craft So fierce the sea will boil. The incomplete book contains only a clue in the form of a poem: Northward, haunted northern coastline And south, Dwemer live and toil, A simple place, a shield from draft. Selecting this option will result in Faralda giving you a book, Power of the Elements. Once your Destruction skill reaches 100, a new conversation option ('What else is there to be learned about Destruction magic?') opens up with Faralda, the Destruction trainer at the College of Winterhold.
