Verdant Grove by Emperor Pilaf
 
This mod adds a seemingly mundane stone to the Red Diamond Jewelry Shop's sales floor, but little does Hamlof Red-Tooth know that the gem he's trying to sell holds within it a secret rune that will warp it's owner to a small hidden grove. The Verdant Grove is the resting spot for misplaced merchants and  retired golems, the land itself was created by Torrina the wandering  summoner and geomancer. Torrina is a planes walker, constantly shifting  through dimensions but she does occasionally stop by the Verdant Grove  around midnight. 

The Verdant Grove has shops and homes available for adventurers on the  go.

Shops:
-Blacksmith (offering reinforced armor and weapons to take on the Daedra)
-A Tavern (offering a variety of well known and obscure drinks and  food)
-A Mage's Shop (offering affordable potions and magic supplies)
-A Fruit stall (the owner is a member of the Thieves’ Guild and will buy stolen goods, she also has a few books for sale)
-A General Goods / Junk Shop (Has a few odds and ends, he's more interested in buying the goods you are trying get rid of)
-Torrina's Staves (Talk to Torrina if you catch her, she has some fast firing staves for sale)

Homes:
-The Apartments- There are 2 apartments for sale on the 2nd floor of the shopping area, they are fully furnished and pretty affordable places live. Both apartments have safe storage and the deeds are available for purchase in the Mage's Shop, please speak to Gerald if you are interested.
-The Stilted Hut- There's a small tree-house like structure near the entrance of The Verdant Grove, it's free to live in.
-The Hunter's Rest- This open air living quarters was partially inspired by the base camps in the Monster Hunter games, I was going for that kind of outdoorsy hunter's camp vibe. It costs 300 gold to fully furnish / unlock. To purchase please approach the for sale sign by the entrance
-Tents- There is also a small camping area at the end of the shopping area, it's the perfect place to roast some popcorn.

In-game Instructions:
Travel to the Red Diamond Jewelry store in IC and purchase The Verdant Gem from grumpy ole' Hamlof (the gem has a base price of 200 gold). Holding the Verdant Gem after obtaining it will add a spell called "Gaze into Verdant Gem" to your spell list ,by using this spell you will be warped to the Verdant Grove. To remove the spell from your spell list simply  drop the Verdant Gem. 

(For all those thieving types out there, the gem can be stolen from the display case, you just need to be really good at lock picking)

Install Instructions: 
Place the file EPVerdantGrove.esp into the Oblivion/Data file and activate the mod before playing either in the game's launcher or the mod manager that you are using and enjoy!
