Arano Ancestral Tomb is a large, Daedra infested tomb on the southern tip of Tel Branora's island. The tomb is overrun by Daedra, who have defiled the tomb and seem to be in the process of attempting to burn the urns. The poor state of the tomb is apparent even before entering, the sand outside is littered with skulls and urns.
There is a spoiled potion, a Telvanni Cephalopod Helm, a Bearskin Cuirass, the Heavy Armor skill book 36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 12, some ingredients (including some Daedra skin, Daedra's heart and ghoul heart), an apprentice pick, two keys (for a locked (10) chest and door), and some minor weapons.
Family MembersEdit
There are three known members of the Arano family:
- Direr Arano, a noble and owner of Arano Plantation
- Rernel Arano, a miner in the Abaelun Mine
- Roner AranoTR, a pawnbroker in Mournhold
InteriorEdit
The Arano Ancestral Tomb is all one interior cell, but forks into two sections. A title has been added for convenience to divide this walkthrough and do not reflect the in-game names.
The inner door to the tomb is trapped. Behind the trapped door is a hall with four altars. Three leveled Daedra roam this part of the tomb. You can carefully deal with them one by one if you keep an eye on their movement. It is clear soon after entry that the Arano Ancestral Tomb is not in a good state. All the altars in this section of the tomb are missing the urn, and it looks like a tapestry has been torn down. Tucked beside the leftmost altar is a Telvanni Cephalopod Helm.
A short hallway to the right leads to two bonepits, both with small chests with random loot. One of the bone pits have urns stashed into it. Ten gold sit on one of the plinths. An unlocked door leads into another room with knocked down urns, and a torn down tapestry. A spoiled potion and the Key to the Arano Tomb Door can be found on the altars. This room also contains a hostile Daedra.
Left SectionEdit
To the left of the entry hall is another door leading into a vaulted hallway. Defended by another random Daedra, this hallway is not in a much better state than the other rooms, although at least some urns haven't been fully knocked off the altar. 25 gold can be found here, as well as a Nordic Bearskin Cuirass. At the end of the hallway is another unlocked door.
A dark room with another Daedra is found on the other side of the door. It has little loot beyond an apprentice lockpick and an iron shield, but it is the only room with intact urns. A locked (10) and trapped door leads to the innermost room of the tomb. The key to this door may have been found earlier right section of the tomb.
The Daedra seem to have been hard at work in the innermost room, and you'll find one last Daedra here. A fire has been lit in one of the bone pits, three steel spears pierce the tapestry, and a massive firepit is full of urns. Two rare ingredients, a Daedra's heart and a ghoul heart, remain by the bone pits. A key for the two small chests in this room can be found on the ledge of the corner between the fire pit and the unlit bone pit.
