Related QuestsEdit
- Nocturnal: Recover the Eye of Nocturnal from a pair of thieves in Leyawiin.
NotesEdit
- This cave can be fully explored before starting the related quest. However, the quest object (the Eye of Nocturnal) will not appear until you have started the quest.
- Inhabited by leveled trolls identified as "Kalperklan Trolls" (and "Azhklan Trolls" outside). Depending upon your level, these trolls can be much stronger than normal trolls. Strangely, all Kalperklan Trolls carry several sets of calipers. Use the water to your advantage if you are struggling with them.
- If you are trying to complete the Shivering Isles quest Work is Never Done, the trolls in this cave can be a useful source of calipers.
- This cave contains 2 Cairn Bolete plants.
- Tidewater Cave also appears in ESO.

Zone 1: Tidewater CaveEdit
This is a relatively straightforward dungeon with a number of branches, two of which lead underwater, so having some form of water breathing may be helpful. Upon entering, you will find yourself in a large corridor guarded by a troll and an animal. At the first junction, a passage leads first south, then east to a small chamber with a minor loot chest and a bedroll (b) guarded by a troll and 1-2 animals. Backtrack to the main corridor and head north, possibly encountering another animal on the way. The next junction leads east to a flooded chamber containing two slaughterfish and a floating minor loot chest. Return to the main corridor again and head north to a T-intersection where another animal lurks, then head west and south into the second flooded branch which contains a minor loot chest along with the Eye of Nocturnal (Q), if you are on the related quest. You can also optionally head east from the T-intersection into a large chamber guarded by a troll and possibly an animal. However, bar a few skeleton corpses, there is no loot here. Return to the entrance the way you came.
