Detailed Walkthrough

Missing Goats

Gylghi will tell you three of her goats have gone missing when you talk to her inside her hut. If you agree to find them she will say they are very fond of beer and will follow anyone who gives them some.

The nearest goat is standing next to the burned down house southeast of Gylghi's hut. Turning north from there will lead to a path covered by a rock arch, the second goat can be found underneath the arch. The final goat is on the opposite side of the mesa, near the entrance to Tuskengryd Barrow. The goats will follow you if you give them beer or light beer. Alternatively, a command creature spell will also work.

Returning the Goats

The goats will follow you until you reach the pen surrounding Gylghi's hut. Once all three goats are either inside the pen or dead, talking to Gylghi will end the quest. If no goats survived she will be mad and you will suffer a disposition hit. If only a single goat survived, she will hand you two bottles of beer for your trouble. If two goats survive she will give you the bottles and 15 gold. If all three goats made it back safely, she will reward you with the Rainwatcher's Boots -- an enchanted pair of boots that will fortify your speed by 25 points while it is raining.
