About this mod
What The Heart Kneads introduces a nuanced romance, centered around Tarys, a Dunmer Flourwright who runs Suran’s Amberloaf Bakery. Through meaningful interactions, mini-quests, and a faction-based relationship system, players can build a genuine connection—one shaped by shared values and actions rather than simple dialogue choices.

Description
Step into the warmth of Suran’s Amberloaf Bakery, where Tarys, a dedicated Flourwright, carries on a proud family tradition. More than just a baker, Tarys is a person of conviction, shaped by Morrowind’s evolving identity—navigating House politics, faith, and personal ethics with thoughtful nuance.
What Love Kneads offers:
- A Character-Driven Relationship – Earn Tarys’ trust and affection through meaningful interactions, not just flattery. What factions you've joined, how you handle miscellaneous
quests, etc, matters. - Faction-Based Bonding System—Progress from Stranger to Soulmate through choices and actions that prove your commitment. Some actions/interactions will make you progress towards the next relationship rank, while others could simply reduce the distance the relationship can go.
- Dialogue-Focused Storytelling – Engage in lore-friendly, immersive conversations that reflect Tarys’ beliefs and personality.
- Mini-Quests & Bakery Tasks – Help with the daily workings of the bakery, strengthening your bond naturally.
- Male or Female, it's your choice.
- Love Takes time, you can have 3 to 5 meaningful interactions per day.
Your actions define the outcome—not every Nerevarine is destined for this love.
