If you are level 30 or higher, a number of Boethiah Cultists and a Priestess of Boethiah will be present; speaking to the Priestess will start Boethiahs Calling if it has not already begun. It is located in the mountains east-southeast of Windhelm.
On the lowest level is a tent and three bed rolls, as well as a small arena. There are also several crates near the tent, with three bottles of skooma found on one of them. On the middle level is a tent surrounded by cages. Inside the tent, there is an Alchemy Lab and an Arcane Enchanter. On the highest level is the actual shrine, which has a mysterious pillar in front of it. If you have a follower with you inside the circle, you can activate the pillar. Tell your follower to use the pillar, and they will be drawn towards it. This allows you to kill your follower and loot their corpse without consequence. Theres also a tanning rack nearby.
