The Mountainside Caverns extend onwards from the Ruined Temple and continue the path on the quest for The Urn of Sacred Ashes. The caverns are not as large as the Temple but hold some good items.
Places
- Feeding Chambers: About midway through the caverns and located to the east of the map, a room with several goats and sheep. Three drakes will spawn, dropping drake scales when killed. These can be given to Wade at Denerim who will use them to craft Wade's Drakeskin Armor Set.
- Hatchery Room: A cavern with a lot of dragon eggs within located at the very top right room of the caverns. Another three drakes will spawn which when killed provide a total of three more scales for Wade.
- Final cave: This is where Kolgrim is located. He will ask The Warden to defile the Sacred Ashes: agreeing to his proposal will start the associated quest; however, refusal to do so will result in Kolgrim and his guards turning hostile and a battle will ensue.
