To kick off this quest, fast travel to Leyawiin and head towards the Mage’s Guild. You can join the guild by conversing with Dagail, but for this quest, search the guild’s rooms until you find a Khajiit named S’drassa.

After your conversation with him, he will refer you to Julian Fanish at the Arcane University located in the Imperial City, who may possess more information about the Tears.
Next, fast travel to the Arcane University and engage with Julian, who will provide you with ample details about the Tears. She will recommend visiting First Edition bookstore in the Market District to seek out a book titled Knightfall. After purchasing and reading it, you will discover details about Refined Frost Salts, which Julian conveniently sells. Acquire all available salts and make your way to Bruma. From there, ride southeast until you arrive at Frostfire Glade. Once inside, battle through any adversaries until you reach the inner entrance.

Within Frostfire Glade, you will face a Frostfire Atronach Glade Guardian, who is vulnerable to fire damage and resistant to frost. If you have access to fire spells, maintain your distance from the guardian and gradually wear down its health.
Proceed forward until you reach a notable rock formation at the center. Ensure you are facing northeast on your compass when inspecting the rock. You will unearth the first Tear at its base and the second one further up. Return to your starting point and walk northeast, closely observing the ground to find the third Tear. Then, move eastward to locate the fourth Tear, and finally, head south to gather the fifth Tear, which is situated near some plants.
With all Tears collected, head back to S’drassa in Leyawiin. He will express his satisfaction with your success and reward you with Gold based on your character’s level at the time you complete the quest.
