The Blood of Dawnwalker Curious Houses — All 6 Strange House Locations in Svartrau — Wiki & Guide

Svartrau hides six Curious Houses — locked townhouses whose doors never open the normal way. Each one is a bite-sized mystery: get in, investigate, close out a mini-quest. There are exactly six, and they're all in the city.

How Curious Houses work

• On the map they wear a white door-shaped icon — six in total, all inside Svartrau's walls.
• The front door is always locked. The way in is an open balcony door, usually above street level.
• Go at night and use Shadowstep to blink up to the rooftops — from there the balcony entrances are trivial to reach.
• Inside, switch to Focus mode and interact with every yellow-marked object. Once all of an object set is inspected, that house's mini-quest completes.

The six houses

The six Curious Houses cluster around Svartrau's districts — use the map icons rather than street-level searching:

1. The outskirts edge — the northernmost marker, easiest to hit right after any Svartrau quest.
2. Near Altenmarkt — tucked among the market streets; its balcony faces the plaza side.
3. By the Middens — the western house, close to the low-quarter walls.
4. The cathedral quarter — watch for patrols; the balcony here sits over a busy lane.
5. The merchant row house — a rich home with the most objects to inspect.
6. The riverside house — the southernmost marker; pair it with any Svartrau night errand.

Each house triggers its own short mini-quest on completion — small stories, small rewards, and a tidy chunk of the city's secrets cleared off the map. None of them advance the clock the way main quests do, so they're a safe way to fill a night you'd otherwise waste.
