Secunda's Kiss

Secunda's Kiss

This is a rather poor camp inhabited by two giants. It contains an unlocked chest and two mammoth cheese bowls by the campfire. The chest contains typical low level loot and a charred skeever is on a spit, roasting over the campfire. There are eight tundra cotton and three lavender plants in and around the painted and decorated stones around the camp. There are two iron ore veins on the mountainside above the camp to the east. Although it is to the north of the mountains that separate Whiterun Hold from Falkreath it is considered part of Falkreath Hold (see notes).

Notes

• Whiterun guards may tell you about this camp in passing dialogue: "The circle of stones to the southwest? That's Secunda's Kiss. The Giants hold it sacred, so tread carefully."
• Low level players can take advantage of a bug which prevents the Giants found here from reaching them. By standing on the Ore Vein side of the cliffs and aiming down into the camp, it is possible to Range and kill both Giants even as a new character. A collision bug prevents both from scaling the inclined path leading up to the Ore Veins leaving players free to dispatch of them without being killed with one hit. As a side-note, the Giants will sometimes clip into the landscape mesh but Arrows and Projectiles will still be able to reach them, if this occurs players will lose any possible loot from the Giants if they do not roll back down the hill upon death.
• It is one of the most common bounty quests given in Falkreath.
  • Version 2.0.0 of the Unofficial Skyrim Patch modifies this location to be part of Whiterun Hold, instead of Falkreath Hold.

Bugs

• The local map refers to this location as "Secunda's Shelf".
  • The Unofficial Skyrim Patch, version 2.0.0, addresses this issue. The local map will refer to it as "Secunda's Kiss" to correct the mismatch.
