Help identifying a weird arrow found in Skyrim
So I was clearing out a Dwarven ruin in Skyrim (Mzinchaleft), and when looking around, I found an arrow (like literally from a bow and arrow kind of thing) just lying on the ground. The arrow is super short, less than half the length of a regular arrow, and it has a flaming, red and orange glowing tip, like it's heated. I can move it around, but I'm not able to pick it up or activate it in any way. I feel really dumb for asking this, as it's probably something obvious that I missed, but I'm just not sure.

That sounds like the Dwarven Sphere Centurion Arrow:
Dwarven spheres fire them, but the player can't pick them up.
(I placed a pile of the arrows on the ground using the console for that screenshot.)

Where are elven arrows in Skyrim?
Elven arrows may be found in a chest in the Thieves Guild training room. If you have access to the Thieves Guild training room and are around level 33 or higher, Niruin will occasionally practice with elven arrows for very long periods of time. You can collect the arrows once they've hit the target.Do arrows matter Skyrim?

Perhaps you saw some bolts coming from Dwarven Sphere. They come out heated just like the arrows. I don't recall if you can pick them up or not.
The bolts were added with the Dawnguard expansion. I don't know if OP has Dawnguard or not.
