The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - where to find Screams and Words of Power!

In The Elder Scroll V: Skyrim there are a total of 20 Thu'um or Screams of the Dragon and they are types of magic that have nothing to do with spells, let alone magic.

Introduction: What are Screams and Words of Power

Each shout is composed of 3 or more Words of Power; the more words you learn the more powerful your shouts will be. You will find the Words of Power, exploring far and wide the vast world of Skyrim, on the Walls of Power of altars located in various dungeons or in unthinkable and difficult to reach places often protected by Dragons.



Once learned, the words must be unlocked with a dragon soul! Needless to say, what to do to reach them. When it comes to catacombs, you have to pave the way by fighting draugr in dungeons that always have only one possible way. When it comes to dragon hideouts, of course, you have to take out the beast that buzzes around them. It's hard work, isn't it? Don't worry, we've taken care of that too, below you'll find the guide to recover all the words of power!


It all begins when, during the Main Quest, the court wizard of Whiterun asks you to collect a Dragonstone at the Mound of Sad Falls, the same dungeon you have already visited to find the Dragon's Claw for the Riverwood merchant.

You should therefore already have the stone and also the first word of a scream. You haven't done it yet? It's time to do it!!!

When the wizard has the stone in his hands, the Dragon Alert will come, the Jarl will call you and send you and some of his men to face him (you are the only ones who have already met one in Helgen!) After killing the Dragon, at the Western Watchtower, the soldiers will ask you for proof of your being Dragon Blood, then you will unlock the first word of the scream with the newly absorbed Dragon Soul and try the Thu'um!



Returning to Whiterun, to report to the Jarl, the sky will be ripped open by a Thu'um invoking Dovahkiin. Speaking to the Jarl, he will explain to you that it is nothing more than the call of the Barbagrigia, the masters of the Way of the Voice, who ask to meet you, because you are the Dragon Blood! At this point you only have to climb the Gorge of the World and its 7000 steps, to reach Hrotgar Alto and meet the Barbagrigia. Here you will undergo simple tests to prove that you are really the Dovakhin, but to continue your training and learn all the Thu'um you must prove your worth by reaching the tomb of Jurgen Windcaller, first Barbagrigia and creator of the order, and recover his horn.

From this point on you will be given a series of side missions to find the words of power.
