Dragonstar West is the first part of the city of Dragonstar that will be encountered. It can be reached from Dragonfields and leads to Dragonstar East.
Its inhabitants mostly fall into the category of being either the cause or the result of the ongoing conflict between Hammerfell and Skyrim: some of them will attack you on sight while the others will beg you for help. The former can be dealt with in the usual manner; the latter can be helped. They will make one of several requests:
-
- Talk
- Simply talking to the refugee will give you 100XP
- Food
- Food is short in the city and many refugees make a plaintive request for bread. If you are prepared to give them some, you receive 300XP
- Gold
- Some refugees simply want money. You can refuse, or give them either 25 or 100 gold. 25 gold nets you 100XP and 100 gold will give you 425XP.
- Medicine
- Some of the refugees know somebody who has lost their sight. If you can give them a Cure Blindness Balm you gain 1,000XP
The Mages Guild can be found in Dragonstar West and can be joined by talking to Colleen. Eranthos will offer training to Battlemages, Spellswords and Sorcerers, and will also buy and sell spells.
Completing the merchant services are three stalls in the center of the region, buying and selling Armor, Consumables and Weapons.
There are three Shadow Gates in this area. The one to the north blocks the entrance to Geldwyr Manor, in which lies the powerful Penumbric Throwing Knife and Geldwyr Shield. Behind the eastern gate is a brazier with an unusual effect: once activated, a shadow enters the room and then merges with you, increasing your strength by 5.

Messages and NotesEdit
In the merchants area, there are two memorial plaques. The first one reads:
- "Meya Violet was a great merchant captain. Her selfless skills of negotiation made the Dragonstar guild great. No one knows what took her that night. We honor her, and pray we can sustain her greatness."
The second one reads:
- "Meya Violet was a visionary leader of the Merchant Captains of Dragonstar. She disappeared shortly after the outbreak of the war. Her husband, Volstok Violet, vanished while searching for her just a couple weeks later."
When opening the chest in (?):
- "You find a bundle of Raider Chew, rumored to permanently increase your Strength at a lesser cost to Intelligence and Agility."
