StaceyPowers Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I have some questions about soul gem lore in Elder Scrolls. When playing Dawnguard, I had the impression that all souls trapped in soul gems ultimately wind up in the Soul Cairn. Is this correct? Or is it only true if they are captured in black soul gems? Also, do they go immediately to the Soul Cairn, or are they only shipped off there when one uses up the gem to charge an item? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
