Haafingar - Skyrim - Curating Curious Curiosities

[Music] welcome back ladies and gentlemen to the next installment of curating curious Curiosities my name is camel and in this video today I'm going to curate to you the Curious Curiosities found in Skyrim's hinga region ainga is the smallest hold in area it also appears to be the most remote being located on a peninsula on the far northwest coast much of the hold is Rocky and mountainous with soaring Snowy Mountains surrounding the north and west of solitude though the lower Ling areas are mostly comprised of forests and hills and for the first curiosity we have the clam diggers Camp Clam Digger that's one of my nicknames on a Friday night clam Digger's Camp can be found west of North watch keep right where my character is located currently and as we can see here there is a rock next to the water covered in clams there is also a tent with a cooking spit and some supplies now at no point will you ever find an NPC in this Camp it is completely unpopulated although it does appear that someone has been here quite recently so down by the water we will find the rock covering clams all of these clams will have meat in them as well they are UNH harvested next to the fire we can find a wooden crate filled with clam meat there is also a bowl inside the tent with one clam meat inside it it is strange how this is completely unpopulated yet it is quite obvious that someone has been here recently perhaps the Clam Digger received an ill Fai we can only imagine what happened to the poor Clam Digger for the next curiosity we have the force sworn Ambush Camp which is located north of deep wood redout once here we will find a small Dale with the classic Force warn tent inside we'll find a chest and some meat and a coin sack if we walk through this Dale we will find two force one who were alive there is also a series of bear traps if we come towards the Ambush Camp from the other direction we could also find a closed bear trap which has killed a Nord who this Nord was or or where this no was traveling will always be unknown and the fact that these Force Wen are so far north and not actually in the reach but in the halfinger region does beg the question why perhaps they were banished for the next curiosity we have howling Wolf's Folly which can be found just above steepfall burrow here we will find a destroyed Tower there will be a leveled creature in there or in my case a frost TR there are also two dead deer and a fallen Stormcloak soldier the Stormcloak soldier will also be in the lockpick skill book proper lock design and around the back of the Fallen Fortress we will find a jibit with a skeleton inside it missing a foot funnily enough there is also a jibit on the ground which has since Fallen what crimes did this poor jibed skeleton perform to receive such a painful and slow death for the next curiosity we have the hinger saber cat Lair which can be found to the north east of the falmore embassy as we approach this beautiful high mountainous location the feeling of Beauty will soon be turned to horror as we see a dead deer and a dead Argonian next to this mysterious and unnamed Argonian will be a coin purse and the Argonian will also be carrying the pig pocketing skill book guide to better thieving this poor Argonian could not have felt farther away from home as he was mul to death by a saber cat poor bastard for the next curiosity we have pin cushion Pete who can be found at top the mountain which is north of solitude and as we approach this Steep and perilous area at top the mountain overlooking Solitude we will see bloodstained snow and we will also see pin cushion Pete and we will also see how pincushion Pete got his name there will be five leveled weapons sticking out of Pete and a mace smashing in his skull next to Pete will be a light armor skill book called the rear guard just above Pete there will be a tree with a staff of fireballs and a napsack leaning against it it really does make me wonder who pincushion Pete was because he really annoyed someone five separate weapons sticking into him at such a remote location as well a top one of the highest mountains in skym and his arm has also been severed and for the next curiosity we have the heringa Nordic burial ruins which can be found due east of the thalore embassy and as we approach this beautiful yet kind of sad sight we will notice that the Nordic burial ruins have themselves been buried whether this was due to an avalanche or a rock slide where suppose we will never know on the right of the stairs we can find three burial ears with just the standard burial ear items contained within these ruins do beg the question perhaps someone or something was buried in this ruin that was so powerful and dangerous that extreme magical forces had to be conjured to bury this Nordic ruin in fragments of mountain to contain the darkness within it for the next curiosity we have Fool's Gold Island which can be found Due West of broken or Grotto and here we will find quite a curious sight indeed a flag at the top of a small island with a skeleton embracing it perhaps this skeleton was betrayed by fellow Gold Diggers on either side of the island we can find gold or veins so the fact that the gold is still there and present on the island makes me think that no one got the gold and this poor skeleton feel a much darker fate than being betrayed by a friend and a darker fate than that is dark indeed and for the next curiosity we have the CBF cave which can be found west of pine Frost Tower CBF of course standing for can't be bothered which as we can see from a distance does look like any other cave has the little gap between the rocks and the snow and the wind blowing out from it but if we get very close there's no cave at all it's just a trick perhaps there was a cave that was meant to go here and it never did I suppose the purpose of this cave that never made it is up to interpretation one of my theories is is that this cave was meant to connect Skyrim to another Province because this cave is actually found on the northwesternmost border of Skyrim for the next curiosity we have the north island now North Island can be found north of orphan's tear on this island we can find clams Barnacles bird's nests grass pods but most curiously we can find Nightshade now this Nightshade is very very far away from all of The Nightshade I do believe the next closest Nightshade is in solitude this is a strangely Barren and Frozen area for this Nightshade to be growing if there's one thing that we associate with Nightshade it is the Dark Brotherhood what would the Dark Brotherhood be doing on an island so far north and remote I cannot say but after extensive searching of the island I was able to find a spine and a femur which in terms of the island which is quite big is quite close to The Nightshade that's all there is and they are found next to each other a leg and the spine the mysteries of North Ireland ask more questions than they answer why is their Nightshade growing here and why is there a human spine and a human leg here the mystery of North Island will always be present but it does make me think that this island had some sort of connection with the Dark Brotherhood the fact that the Nightshade are growing so far away from all other Nightshade and so specifically right next to human bones definitely connects some dots to the Dark Brotherhood and for the next curiosity we have the lying n rout which can be found north of broken or Grotto on this tiny Island we will find two ntic Barnacles and a n root but the interesting thing about this ner rout is that it isn't a plant ner root it's not in the ground this is a n rout that has already been picked and then placed on the ground just for a comparison the N rout on the left is how we normally find a n rout a plant in the ground that's making that very familiar n rout ringing noise whereas the known route on the right is the known route that we have present on this known route lying Island where it is a known route that has already been harvested and then dropped on the ground which is seldom seen apart from inside Alchemists shops So What on earth is this n rout doing out of the grounds and sitting on a rock who has placed this here and why and for the next curiosity we have the pine moon bear Lair which can be found southeast of pine Moon cave we will find a bear and a maiden not so Fair there are also some other human bones and a dead goat lying around this Bandit is carrying nothing of Interest what was this Bandit doing out here all alone to receive such an ill fate delivered by an s's claw and jaw is that blood from a wound or is that blood from her for the next curiosity we want to be behind Angeline's aromatics in solitude so if we have Angeline's aromatics right here what we want to do is turn around and run up this ramp here we want to keep running up now we want to go between the Fletcher and the roof of Angeline's aromatics we want to jump over the wall there and to behind the building here we will find a dead ska and a desecrated corpse as we can see the desecrated corpse was obviously Once An Imperial Soldier it will also be carrying 50 gold septums it's only a wonder what happened to this Imperial Soldier did it have something to do with a ska if so then why is the ska also dead I cannot say for certain what happened here if we pick the Cor up we can see that the breastplate is completely caved in this would imply it has been smashed with something this corpse has no backstory or explanation to it for the penultimate curiosity we want to head to the well found in solitude's trade area once at the well we can find a fishing pole over the well which is quite strange because I'm certain there are no fish down that well perhaps it's there to amuse a child or some kind of deranged homeless character has been fishing in a fishless well to past the time perhaps someone dropped something down the well and was trying to fetch it with the fishing line there are many possibilities to explain this now for the final curiosity and Skyrim's half finger region we actually have a series of Curiosities and firstly down at the docks in solitude on this separate and decayed Warf we can find a potion of Health on this wooden post it seems a bit strange but there are all kinds of strange things lying around Skyrim but if we head over to the boat we can find another post of healing which is inside the boat under one of the seats so already we have two Health rated potions in close proximity of each other now if we head into Solitude we want to go to Eric's house and if we pan around between the back of the house and the Solitude City wall we will find this ledge which has another potion of healing so now we have three health related potions in solitude next we want to head to brill's home and on a wall above his garden we can guess what once again find another red potion which turns out to be another potion of healing this is the fourth Health rated potion found in or around Solitude this is starting to get suspicious next as soon as we walk into Solitude between the inn and the alchemical shop there is a pile of wood on the left and there is another potion of healing lying there quite hidden and out of the way and seemingly random but when we take into consideration all of the other healing potions lying around I'm sure it's beginning to raise a few eyebrows next have we come to this spot on the wall above the Solitude Castle Courtyard we can jump down this ledge and find a bird's nest but if we turn right in the corner there is another potion of healing this is the sixth potion of healing in and around Solitude if we come out of the castle Courtyard and turn around this tree here in between these two rocks we can find yet again another potion of healing my God someone one needs to be healed urgently in solitude this is the seventh potion of healing found in and around Solitude and lastly on the roof above the BS College we have you guessed it another potion of healing this one is actually a lot more curious because there are two Elven Arrows with the potion of healing why are there two Elven arrows and a potion of healing and let's not forget to ask a question why are there eight potions of healing laying in Hidden areas all around Solitude the fact that they in all of these hidden places especially this one with the two elephant arrows does make me think this has something to do with an assassination although I don't know why a hidden assassin would need a potion of healing I personally don't have any real explanations for this one this has really got me stumped hopefully someone can explain this
