You will come into a room in which stairs lead down, but a sturdy metal grate blocks your passage.

Set the Ivory Dragon Claw in the slot just above Daynas’ body to lower the bridge and continue in. Take the Ivory Dragon Claw from his robes and leaf through the notes to learn that you’ll need to uncover the Gauldur Amulet Fragment here in Folgunthur and in two other locations. Daynas Valen can be found at the very edge of the second floor ledge, but isn’t in any condition to give you useful information. You can pull the lever or just jump over to the stairs. There’s a floor trap at the bottom of the staircase. Proceed further and fight some draugrs in the next room. The first room has familiar-looking animal tiles and an imprint of a claw, which you don’t have yet. If the numerous freshly bloodied bodies aren’t indication enough, the booby traps rigged throughout this small area should deter even the most intrepid adventurers. The inside of Folgunthur looks just as uninviting as the outside. Investigate this further by paying a visit to the journal’s owner, Daynas, inside Folgunthur. Head to the location on the map, a small campsite just outside Folgunthur, and read Daynas Valen’s journal sitting on the ground.
