Saving Time Itself Walkthrough
Retrieve the Elder Scroll
Return to Beldaburo, which is to the far west of Kvatch along the coast. Once inside, make your way back to the door with the glowing tree on it and open the “Stone Door to Beldaburo Anga”.

Once inside, follow the path to reach a platform that you’ll need to stand on to open the iron gate.

In the next room, DO NOT step in the center of the room as you’ll experience a trap!

Instead, skirt the edges to reach the other side. You’ll find a zombie and two small chests in this room with the fire braziers.

When you’re ready, open the gate on the south side of the room and proceed forward down the stairs. In the next room, you’ll be greeted by Corelian and his skeletal guard.

Take them out then loot Corelian’s body for the Beldaburo Key, Corelian’s Diary, and Elder Scroll.
Deliver the Elder Scroll
Before leaving, loot the Ayleid Coffer between the altar and firepit. Next, press the button on the wall to reveal a shortcut.

OPTIONAL: Use the key on the west side of the room and open the “Stone Door to Beldaburo”. Head to the right first for two small chests.

Head across the way to the other side of the path to find a chest!
When you’re ready to leave, take the shortcut to exit the ruins and return to Ilav in Kvatch. Speak with him to complete the “Saving Time Itself” quest. Speak with him again about “Equipment” then you’ll get to choose whichever weapons and armor pieces you’d like. You won’t be limited to one or the other, however, they sell for nothing!
