Note: You can make everything a lot easier for yourself by traveling to Bleak Fall Barrow before you even get to Whiterun. You can start the Golden Claw quest by talking to Lucan Valerius in Riverwood. This will allow you to get all of the items you need from the Bleak Falls Barrow and give it to Farengar Secret-Fire as soon as you get the quest, without having to backtrack. [1] X Research source
Arvel will cower for a moment after being freed from the spiderweb, making this the best time to kill him.
If you haven’t purchased the house by the time you start the “Battle for Whiterun” quest for the Stormcloaks, you’ll be required to purchase the house afterwards from Brill in Dragonsreach.
You can purchase furnishings by the room. For example, furnishing your Living Room will provide 2 Weapon Racks, 1 Bookshelf, 1 Cupboard, 1 Small Table, and 2 Small Chairs. Furnishing the bedroom will provide 3 End Tables, 1 Dresser, 1 Table, 1 Chest, 2 Chairs, 1 Shield Plaque.
Many players will sort different categories of items into different containers to make finding items easier later. For example, you might place all of your clothing and armor in your Bedroom containers, while keeping all of your ingredients in the Kitchen. Weapon Racks will automatically store your equipped weapon when you use them, making them a great way to show off your more prized weapons.
Most foods will require Salt as an ingredient.
If you have the “Hearthfire” expansion, you can replace your alchemy lab with a Children’s Bedroom. This allows you to adopt children to live you with. Click here for more details on adopting in Skyrim.
