About this mod
This mod is for those who want a simple and convenient place to sleep, store stuff and do a bit of crafting. It’s located in a loft area just above Whiterun’s main gate.

Practical information: There is no need to purchase this; it is just a storage area after all. This home is all about convenience. You have the alchemy and enchanting tables here which are more convenient than even Breezehome. For smithing, you can just leap down to Warmaiden’s.The upper door to the skooma den has an easy to pick lock. The lower door needs the key found on the table close by. If you don’t pick locks, you can climb the rocks outside the main gate or run across the roof above the drawbridge to the well cover. To get back out this way run along the ledge on the side of the pool, and jump to the rope.The skooma den has a cooking pot and bedrolls for three individuals. No spousal beds here. Besides, do you really want your spouse to know you live in a skooma den? Save up for that nice place in Solitude, and then get married. That’s just my advice.When in need of curing there is also a shrine to Zenithar (10% better prices). Hmm, those Khajiits are crafty. All crates and barrels are non-respawning. There are many types of ingredients to be found in all the areas. All areas are fully nav-meshed and there are lots of idle markers to keep your followers busy, although I noticed that Lydia spent most of her idle time in front of the mead keg. She said the crates impeded her efforts to move around, but I don’t really believe her.
Conflicts: Any mods (and I know there are some) that use the loft above the main gate, the guard area to the right of the gate (upon entering) or the two guard houses on either side of the drawbridge. The vanilla game doesn’t use these areas except a bit during the civil war. I have tried to keep all the mod elements from interfering with those elements, although I have not done the civil war quest and I am not sure what will happen then. Perhaps the whole abode will wind up in flaming ruins. Maybe someone could try it and tell me what happens.
