Ride Grimwing (Acherus flight master) and ask him to send you to the Thorim's Peak in Stormheim.
Speak with Minerva next to a stone brazier as you dropped.

Description

While you were gone, we strategized what to do with the harness. We can utilize its power to bind the spirits of deceased drakes to you, raising them under your will as loyal soldiers. I sent Minerva to Thorim's Peak in Stormheim, where she has found a brood of deceased Thorignir. They will be prime targets. Speak to Grimwing for a flight to the mountain, then Minerva will fill you in.

    Alright, the job is to get the broodmother under our control. But hear me out. A few more drakes would be a boon, right? While we're here, why don't we use our awesome power over undeath to raise some of her brood as well?
