How many steps are there in the throat of the world in Skyrim?

There are officially "7,000 Steps" to High Hrothgar in Skyrim, but players who count the actual visible stone steps find there are only around 700 to 800; the large discrepancy is due to game design scaling for playability, with the rest of the steps being symbolic or buried under snow. The in-game path is significantly shorter and easier than the lore implies, though it's still a substantial climb with encounters and Wayshrines.

What is the rarest thing in Skyrim?

The "rarest" item in Skyrim is subjective, but often cited are uniquely named, single-occurrence items like the Notched Pickaxe (found near a skeleton) or Cabo Zane's Fane (a dagger for slicing dragon scales), or quest-specific items like Barenziah's Crown or Colovian Brandy, which can be permanently missed if choices aren't made carefully, making them rare through player error rather than inherent scarcity. Truly rare items are often unique artifacts or quest rewards that have no other source in the game, like Daedric artifacts or unique weapons such as Firiniel's End, but many players consider quest-critical items that can be permanently lost to be the rarest.
