As dragon shouts are technically spells, they can be used to activate the pedestals.Once you have completed this quest, Faralda will sell spell tomes for the other two Master-level Destruction spells ( Lightning Storm and Blizzard).Reading the completed book grants you the Fire Storm spell.A diamond in the rough, I find, Shining gem from feeble mind. Seeking study, wanting learning, Recklessly aroused my rage! My pupil you would be, or more? Presume not of Shalidor, You feeble, foolish mage! Quickly dispatched, worthless weakling, Though this tome I gladly claim. Havoc wrought as if for sport, Efforts to impress fall short. The final entry after receiving the spell is: Elemental magic wielded, Elemental thoughts displayed. Pick up the book and read it to complete the quest. Casting any lightning spell at the book or pedestal completes it. The pedestal is on the other side of the stone building. This final clue points to Four Skull Lookout, another small barrow near Karthwasten and north of Karthspire in The Reach (east and slightly north of Markarth, directly East across the gorge from The Lover Stone). Sky's wrath on this stand bring forth To shake these snowcaps down. This time, cast any frost spell at the book or pedestal to receive the next clue: Over western river waters, By Karth bounded, south and north On mountains sits a humble crown. It is easiest to get there from Orphan Rock, as it is within sight of the fast travel point. The second pedestal is found at North Skybound Watch, another barrow on the southwestern slope of the Throat of the World, not far northeast of the starting town of Helgen. Here unleash a chilling cry And gild this stand with frost. Pick up the book again and you will notice that it has acquired a new page: Under Greybeards' morning shadow At this northern watch, long lost Nirn's hoary Throat does scrape the sky. Once you have done so, cast any fire spell at either the book or pedestal. Inside the barrow is a pedestal upon which you can place the book. This clue points to Windward Ruins, a small barrow just southwest of Dawnstar. At this stand wield mage's craft So fierce the sea will boil.

The incomplete book contains only a clue in the form of a poem: Northward, haunted northern coastline And south, Dwemer live and toil, A simple place, a shield from draft. Selecting this option will result in Faralda giving you the book Power of the Elements. Once your Destruction skill reaches 100, a new conversation option opens up with Faralda, the Destruction trainer at the College of Winterhold ('What else is there to be learned about Destruction magic?').
