About this mod
Both Will-o-the-wisps and Sprites are woodland fairies who can be described as floating orbs of glowing light that emit sparkling magical sounds, however their temperaments could not be more different. Finding a bright light in the middle of a dark forest when you are lost can represent your salvation, or your certain death in some secluded glade.

- This mod is a compilation of my Sprites (LE/SE-AE) and Will-o-the-Wisps(LE/SE-AE) mods. If you use these 2 mods, by downloading this new file you will be able to delete these 2 esps, thus saving space in your load order;
- Obviously you should not use this mod together with the 2 mentioned above, since they are already compiled in this new file, and using them at the same time will double the amount of these creatures in your game, in addition to other possible problems;
- If you use, like and value my work, please consider giving an endorsement. I've worked hard for years to offer you the best of me for free, and the only thing I ask in return is this gesture, which increases my relevance and engagement on Nexus, and motivates me to continue;
- I do not inspect or have any influence over translations of my mods (including those linked directly on my pages), nor do I have any power over patches or add-ons made to my content. So, before using any unofficial add-ons for my mods, make sure they conform to the latest version of my official release, and never use these if they don't. The same applies to Xbox ports;
- In addition to the Nexus, you can also find me on:

"Will-o-the-wisps are very little understood. Like most nature spirits, particularly creatures resembling fairies, nymphs, etc., they are the subject of many theories and no final conclusions due to the fact that they are almost always very difficult to contact, turning out to be too timid or too dangerous to be studied more closely by scholars. These are the cases of the small Wisps that follow the Wispmothers and the Wispmothers themselves: for example, some speculate that the latter are some kind of state of necromancy, lichdom, of the falmer or ayleid, others suspect they are just another type of nature spirit such as the spriggan, with most scholars believing in the latter theory. But Will-o-the-wisps, unlike those mentioned above, are very simple apparitions: they always appear as balls of light, sometimes so bright they hurt your eyes and other times so dim you have to squint to see them. They usually have an orange glow, although red has also been reported. They roam the forests of Tamriel, and in Skyrim they mostly appear in pine forests, but sightings are also reported in interior areas related to the ancient powers of nature, such as spriggan groves and nature sanctuaries within caves.
A light floating in the dark may seem innocent, even friendly, but don't be fooled. These attractive lights are almost always dangerous: they lead travelers to dangerous places, perhaps a deep hole in a swamp or a cavern ruled by aggressive spriggans. In combat, they can create mists of glowing points of light around them, leaving the victim almost blind, and using that moment to stun and absorb the enemy's vitality and magical power."

"Sprites are small, timid nature spirits connected to the air element, cousins of fairies, sylphs, and others. They are floating orbs, usually blue in color, small in size, and with two pairs of transparent wings. They usually live in groups in forests, with a predilection for secluded clearings with small mist-covered lakes, and they often fly away when humans approach. They produce a sparkling, magical sound and pose no danger. Several stories tell of heroes who were guided by Sprites during their journeys until they reached their goals, whether they were a hidden treasure, or saving a princess in danger."

So far no incompatibilities have been found between this mod and other mods.
(OBS- If by chance when installing several of Mihail's mods at the same time you are asked about files overwriting those of other Mihail mods or other authors mods, don't worry because they are just the same files shared between mods. I recommend that on these occasions always give preference to the files contained in my mods, and among mine always give preference to the mod you are installing last.)
The Mihail Monsters and Animals series aims to create and make available to the community the most complete set of creatures for TES 5: Skyrim, implemented in an immersive and unique way, with respect to the pillars of lore. Instead of pathetically just throwing models and textures in the game reusing 100% vanilla mechanics, the creatures made by Mihail have uniqueness and extreme zeal in their idealization and implementation, which will provide you with an experience that you have never had before in this area.
