The final preview installment of TWMP Skyrim Alive is released! biggrin.gif This has all the content of the full release, with a few bugs thrown in. wink.gif I already squashed some, so I know they are still lurking under the floor boards.

I have reviewed and updated the Optional Extras - little mods that alter game play in Skyrim, offer transport to Morroblivion or provide an alternate start. These versions now work with v3.0.7 (and will work with v3.1).

I've been also editing the mod page, and am still doing it, it's a bit of a WIP at the moment. But I decided not to hide the mod while I'm updating it, I'm sure people will figure it out.

It won't take long now, may be a week or two at most, and we shall have the official launch of release 3! ohmy.gif

Amazing work and dedication on your part.

I aways wondered about how many items can be meant by the term, a few. Now I know.

Thank you, macole! biggrin.gif

Yes, "a few" means "I hope there aren't too many". biggrin.gif

I can't find any more, they all scattered. Probably because I've been working on it for so long, I simply don't see them.

The difficulty now is to resist the urge to improve things. Add another painting here, make another banner there. No, this will never end. I just have one more item on my list that's been sitting there literally for two years, I'll do that, and unless someone reports bugs, that will be it! Time to take a break.

Oh my gosh - yes! biggrin.gif But at the same time there's a feeling of emptiness too...

Thank you, SubRosa! biggrin.gif But you see all that land in the first picture? That's High Rock. Completely empty so far, apart from the landscapes... ohmy.gif

I am supposedly taking holiday from Skyrim... in Skyrim! ohmy.gif I'm building the Blue Palace in Solitude.

The thing is that I enjoy building castles. It calms the nerves and engages the mind. And Solitude had no castle so far! That can't be right, being the capital of Skyrim and all. There supposed to be the Blue Palace.

Blue Palace in Solitude - TES5 Skyrim

So I decided to build one!

Blue Palace in Solitude - TWMP Skyrim Alive

Blue Palace closer look

These are just the first screenshots from the Construction Set, so you don't see the surrounding scenery yet. I have also built a long bridge from the Blue Palace right into the heart of Solitude similar to what you see in the TES5 picture. It is obviously NOT the same city, we have a different geography for starters, but I've always loved the Great Arch and saw no reason not to have one. smile.gif

This will be released as v3.2. Of course you would wonder why the High King does not reside in his splendid palace... Well, glad you asked. Because there a small matter you could help with... biggrin.gif

It comes complete with a quest, at the end of which the High King moves to the Blue Palace.

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to ask for a walkthrough. Turns out: two weeks. Yesterday someone asked for a walkthrough of the Skyrim Main Quest. ohmy.gif

I think the answer is going to be NO.

Thanks, macole! biggrin.gif This is becoming a rather larger addition than I originally planned... again. I guess I'll never learn. But you cannot tell half a story!

And while I'm building my castle (and stuff), I'm trying to start a game of Morroblivion with Geralt - he is going to Solstheim to answer Hircine's call. I am using several new and untested mods for this, and, well... Geralt is very busy testing them for me. biggrin.gif

Today I finally caught a very elusive bug - "You don't need a hero, you need a professional", as Geralt would say. Rightly so. Had to have a witcher for my bug hunting. So, to reproduce this bug, I have to load a particular save, have a fight with a bunch of rieklings, get knocked out once or twice, then finish them off, get out the meditation pad, meditate to recover health, get up and... CRASH! Phew... So Geralt's been doing a lot of that, and I may be able to finally catch that bug. I also had a glimpse of possibly two more, completely independent, in three different mods, all coming together in that one sequence of events. So I'm not moving until this rare hunting opportunity is completely exhausted!

Oh, and I have already squashed three other bugs today, all discovered while trying to start up Geralt's game. Plus another very difficult bug squashed a few days ago. The witcher is definitely doing his thing!

Several people are playing the main quest of TWMP Skyrim Alive at the moment, and two people actively reporting issues - thank you LordPalpatine2020 and Chambcra, and Clayton1015 before that! goodjob.gif

Nice to see how it looks in other people's games, too. Here's a screenshot from Chambcra: Librarium. Yes, you guessed it, it's a pocket of Apocrypha, of course... biggrin.gif

The Blue Palace in Solitude is surrounded in mystery and magic. I couldn't just build a castle, I had to build a story around it as well. To be released in a not to far future in TWMP Skyrim Alive v3.2.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harald and Sylvana

by Anonymous


An unknown hero stood before the Matriarch of the Rimerock Coven of the Glenmoril Wyrd. The hero was on a noble quest - to lift a curse from a sleeping beauty, the Queen of Skyrim, Sylvana. As noble a quest as one ever existed, entrusted to the hero by the High King himself.

The Matriarch was unperturbed, for this was not the first hero that came to her with such a request. But will this be the one to see it through?

~ : ~

Yes, Sylvana has been cursed, I know of it for it was I who cursed her. Did King Harald send you? So, he thinks he found himself a champion.

I can help you lift the curse, yes. But do you know what came before? Did the King tell you why Sylvana was cursed? No, I didn't think he would. Then listen, for you will be the judge whether it's time to lift the curse or not.

Sylvana is Harald's first wife and the Queen of Skyrim, it's true. She was but a slip of a girl when she wed, inexperienced in the ways of love. Harald was much older than Sylvana, and it seemed that such an inexperienced wife could not fulfil his desires. And so he looked elsewhere.

He met Frema, a woman of some reputation and similar in years to himself. They were seeing each other regularly and became quite close. Frema's daughter was born a year later, and yes, she is Harald's child.

Sylvana was hurt by this, for she too wished for a child, but Harald would not give her one. Yet the Queen of Skyrim was Sylvana and not Frema, and so Frema's daughter was not a princess. Frema didn't like it.

People were saying that Harald had no heir, that Sylvana was not a full Queen, not having born a child, but people didn't know it was Harald's doing. People were also saying that Harald should divorce Sylvana because she was childless and make Frema the Queen of Skyrim instead.

Harald would not hear of it, for he knew why Sylvana had no children. Finally, he decided to do something about it. He was spending more time with Sylvana and less time with Frema, and Frema started bearing scorn. She came to me - a scorned woman. She wanted her daughter to take her place as Princesse, and for herself she wanted to be the Queen. She wanted Sylvana dead.

But know that the Glenmoril Wyrd will not kill a woman because another woman is scorned. We offered to curse her instead. This curse keeps Sylvana alive and well, and forever young. The curse can be lifted by Harald's will but not by his hand.

It was Harald's decision to marry Frema after Sylvana was cursed. Of course Frema was pressing him, but no one can force a King to do it. Harald married Frema because one way or the other he willed it. But now it seems he wills it no longer.

For here you stand before me asking about lifting that curse. It is for you to decide.

But first I must warn you: it won't be easy. This path is thorny, and besides the trials, also a sacrifice will be required. A sacrifice from you. So think hard whether you wish to sacrifice a piece of yourself for Harald and Sylvana.

Consider also what happens to Frema and her daughter after that, for there can be only one Queen of Skyrim, and Frema will be made to step aside. What will she do? What is she capable of? Is it wise to cross her?

~ : ~

Many a hero have heard this tale, yet Sylvana is still asleep, her beauty forever fresh, her heart forever young. Skyrim is still searching for her true hero.

Dunderhead Harald has made a mess of everything. This kind of quest can go so many different ways it will be very interesting to see how you take it.
As for Harald, perhaps he should have consulted with the Daughters of Wroth. The Wrothgarian Mountain coven has no scruples.
