Unicorn Overlord Stone Carvings Drakenhold Order

Drakenhold's carving quest is Carved of Drakenhold Stone. The journal you need sits in the southern desert. One community answer describes running along the southern edge of the nation until you find it, and the reply that confirmed that answer narrows the spot to directly southwest of Nestascheft Town, between the mountains, right above the beach. The IGN walkthrough describes the same start as investigating ruins southwest of Nestascheft Town, so the journal location is the one part of this page with two independent sources behind it.

The order comes from that walkthrough alone: Scorpion, then Reaper, then Cockatrice, then Wyvern. Each of the four is tied to separate progress in Drakenhold, which is why a carving can be missing even when you are standing in the right place. Completion pays the axe Kingsaxe Drakenash plus five Honors and 1000g, described in the same walkthrough as raising all stats by 5.

The quest guide video on this page was provided by the user (video ID cUemQOjT9-I, captured 2026-09-26). It agrees with the walkthrough on two points: the journal sits in the lower part of Drakenhold, and the Reaper carving needs the bridge quest near Ömpalast finished first. It does not read the order aloud, because the order is shown on screen rather than spoken, so the video cannot serve as a second verification of the sequence. Treat it as community guidance.

Collect the journal first, then take the carvings in order. The prerequisite quests are what gate each stone, so a carving that will not appear is usually a progress problem rather than a search problem.

1. 1

   Get Yahna into the army

   The walkthrough ties the start of this quest to recruiting Yahna through the main quest The Ravaged Swamp.

2. 2

   Collect the journal

   Search the southern desert southwest of Nestascheft Town, between the mountains and above the beach, running along the nation's southern edge if the ruin will not turn up.

3. 3

   Scorpion carving

   After The Battle for Vansberg, head northwest of the town along the path.

4. 4

   Reaper carving

   Complete the Ömpalast Wooden Bridge quest near Ömpalast Town and then follow the road down. The quest guide video places this in the same area as the region's black marketeer.

5. 5

   Cockatrice carving

   After Beyond the Swirling Sands, head west of Ganrafeldt Town.

6. 6

   Wyvern carving and reward

   After Heir to the Dragonlands, check east of Schweiger Town. The fourth interaction closes the quest and pays Kingsaxe Drakenash, Honors x5 and 1000g.

Everything in this table comes from the single IGN walkthrough. It is reproduced so you can see the gate for each stone at a glance and judge how much weight to put on it.

The journal is the one part of this quest with a second source. A community thread about its location gives two descriptions: close to the middle at the bottom of the large desert area, findable by running along the southern edge of the nation, and, in the reply that confirmed the first answer, directly southwest of Nestascheft Town between the mountains, right above the beach.

The quest guide video adds a looser version of the same thing, placing the journal in the bottom portion of Drakenhold. None of the three gives a coordinate or a map square, so expect to sweep the desert edge rather than walk to a marker.

The captured sources address three specific blockers, and one detail they deliberately leave out.

• Reaper: the bridge quest near Ömpalast Town has to be completed first. The walkthrough and the user-provided video agree on this, which makes it the most strongly supported link on this page.
• Cockatrice, Scorpion and Wyvern: the gates are Beyond the Swirling Sands, The Battle for Vansberg and Heir to the Dragonlands respectively, all from the walkthrough.
• Journal: if you are sweeping the region anyway, aim for the southern desert southwest of Nestascheft rather than the interior.
• One omission worth knowing about: the video mentions a material requirement for the bridge quest, but the automatic transcript garbles both the item name and the quantity. Neither is repeated here, and no source in this batch clarifies the requirement.

The sequence, the four placements, the prerequisite quests and the reward all trace back to one walkthrough. Searching for this topic surfaces several other pages, but their bodies were not captured in this batch, so nothing here has been cross-checked against an independent account. The transcript from the quest guide video cannot fill the gap, because the carving order is shown on screen rather than spoken.

Two further questions have no captured answer: what happens if you interact with a Drakenhold carving out of sequence, and what Kingsaxe Drakenash does beyond the all-stats line. The precise relationship between the black marketeer and this quest also rests on a single spoken remark in the video. None of those points are guessed at above.
