- Rats!
- Revamped lighting sources
- Brand-Shei actually sells items from Morrowind (DLC version only)
- Cosmetic changes around the city, including the temple of mara, graveyard, bee & barb, and black-briar manor
- Too much immersive clutter to count!

Incompatibility
===============
This mod is incompatible with any mod that makes changes to Riften. It may be able to work with conjunction with some depending on object placement, etc.
The interior and immediate exterior of Honeyside are largely untouched to provide maximum compatibility with Honeyside altering mods.

Better Riften is not compatible, due to similiar stairs.


Known Issues or Bugs
====================
None.

If you encounter any other issues, please let me know ASAP.
