About this mod
Straightforward entry into the College of Winterhold and its questlines.
- Permissions and credits
This mod postpones the obstacle of Saarthal expedition when entering the College of Winterhold.
The wizards have bound a magical seal on the sigil stone at the Winterhold side of the bridge. You now enter the College
with the help of magical College Familiar. IF YOU BYPASS THE GATE STONE AND ENTER THE COLLEGE WITHOUT THE FAMILIAR YOU ARE TRESPASSING.
Find everyone at the faculty minding their own daily business. Start First Lessons at your leasure. If you meet Mirabelle before going to Tolfdir, she will give you the apprentice outfit with an option to bypass the tour.
Instead of forcing the apprentice down to Saarthal, with this mod the College offers you a number of vanilla quests right from the start:
- All 5 vanilla College Ritual questlines are available right after finishing First Lessons. Start the quests by talking to the faculty - Tolfdir, Drevis, Faralda, Colette, Phinis.
- Under Saarthal can be started by talking with Tolfdir. You are not pushed there right after entering the College!
- Radiant quests from Urag the Librarian, and many more with Cutting Room Floor from Tolfdir, Arniel, Sergius
- Arniel's Endeavor

Unofficial Skyrim Patch users take notice:
This mod overwrites two scripts that USLEEP / USKP also edit, and if you end up running the wrong version of the script, you may not be able to complete First Lessons.
