Dragonstone

The Dragonstone is a stone tablet that depicts a map of Skyrim, marked with the locations of Dragon burial mounds. It was crafted following the Dragon War and was meant to document the burial of the Dragon-Lords in Skyrim for when Alduin returned. It was created in the days that followed Alduin's defeat in the Dragon War. It was protected by the Keeper of the Dragonstone, a Draugr, in his tomb at Bleak Falls Barrow.

The Dragonstone was kept in secret in the ruined temple until it was tracked in 4E 201 by Delphine, a member of the Blades that went into hiding. She was able to rendezvous the information to her associate, the court-wizard of Whiterun, Farengar Secret-Fire, who sent the Last Dragonborn to acquire the tablet from the temple. They were successful, besting the Keeper and delivering the stone to Whiterun. With the tablet, Delphine copied the map with rubbings to track the resurrections of the Dragons occurring courtesy of Alduin's prophesized return.
