Harlaug

Harlaug on Giant's Tooth^CC

Harlaug is a Nord warrior and the ferryman for Dawnstar. He wears farm clothes, a pair of boots, and carries an iron war axe. You can hire him to sail you to Solitude or Windhelm for 50 gold, or Icewater Jetty for 500 gold.

During the quest A Dying Wish^CC, Harlaug is the only ferryman who will agree to bring you to Giant's Tooth. He will venture with you to the island and will wait on the shore to bring you back to Dawnstar. He will thereafter offer to take you back to Giant's Tooth as often as you like, 50 gold each time.

DialogueEdit

He can greet you with:

"Looking to hire a boat?"

"I can take you to any port on the coast."

"May not look like much, but my boat can get you there faster than walking."

When you first speak to him:

"Where are you headed?"

Windhelm./Solitude.

"Climb on in the boat and get comfortable."

After you're seated, he'll say:

"You just enjoy the fresh air and leave the rowing to me."

When traveling to Windhelm he can say:

"Windhelm eh? City of kings, they say. Hope you packed warm though."

When traveling to Solitude he can say:

"Ah, Solitude. Best port in Skyrim. You should try the Spiced Mead while you're there."

However, if you tell him you're interested in traveling to an island near the border to High Rock:

An island near the border to Highrock.

"The one with the ruined castle? Don't you know that place is cursed? Even seasoned sailors steer far around that place."

I need to go there anyway.

"I'll take you as far as I can, but I'm not hanging around and it's gonna cost you extra."

Take me near the castle to the west.

"Climb on in and let's get this over with."

When traveling to the island he can say:

"They say anyone who steps foot on that island will meet an early death... hope you know what you're doing."

If you don't have the gold he asks for, he'll be annoyed, and reply:

"You think I do this for my health? Come back when you've got the coin."

A Dying Wish^CCEdit

You can try speaking to the other two ferrymen when looking to book passage to Giant's Tooth, but only Harlaug will be willing to bring you. He will offer to bring you back and forth as many times as you like, even after the related quest:

I need safe passage to Giant's Tooth. (50 gold) / I want to go back to Giant's Tooth. (50 gold)

"I understand. Climb on in and let's get this over with."

When you arrive on the island, Harlaug will wait for you on the shore while you face the island's dangers. He will offer to bring you back to Dawnstar:

I'm ready to go back to Dawnstar.

"I understand. Climb on in the boat and get comfortable."

NotesEdit

The version of Harlaug you see at Giant's Tooth is essential and is actually a different NPC (BaseID: FExxxB1E).

BugsEdit

Harlaug may not let you travel to any destination, reciting his voicelines but not traveling anywhere. ^?
