There is this mod, https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/47854 ... but I like the way your mod does it with cool text. It's more immersive. Thanks for the mod.
Ah, yes, while I like the purpose of that mod, I do find it is the less fun way of going about it. Making those quests less of a wild stab in the dark, but all in ways that would make sense within the game, as it were. Delightful to hear that others share that sentiment.
So I finally checked out the book and I have some feedback... firstly, this writing is simply excellent and has all the gravitas one would expect from the ayleid, it really bugs me when people add lore books but the writing is just poor, you really have a talent. Although I have to say the clues are way too cryptic, I read every riddle and couldn't even begin to decode which ruins the riddles are hinting at. Could you give me some help? Great work though, this ones a keeper, simply for the excellent writing.
Edit... ok I feel dumb, that was actually just the lore book I was reading lol..
Oh, no need to feel dumb, it happens. I wonder if you will quite believe how much time I spent reading the 'Commentaries' back and forth during the main quest before I understood that the quest meant the first letters, rather than the words... Indeed, on reflection, the lore-book could have been a little bit more clear on the locations.
I am very happy to hear that the writing was well enough to warrant the download, and once more, terribly sorry for the confusion. If you are still interested in the more cryptic lore clues, the connexion is in their name ('Sky-Gazing Child' refering to Welke, as in Welkynd - Starchild) or their role (Temple on the Waters being Culotte, which is on the Niben's shore). Indeed, could have been clearer, without the book suffering for it. It is more of an effort to give the Ancestors a purpose, and explain their connexion to the Tower and their role in the Ayleid world, but it would have been the littlest bit neater.
Very happy for the feedback, and I do hope it is still worth the keep. I will keep it in mind for future projects.
At first, this mod was only meant for myself, but when I could not find any other mod that did this, I thought it would it would be a good thing to share, once it had been expanded a bit. Thank you kindly, and good hunting!
