About this mod

Adds map markers for Castle Dour (Imperial Legion) and Jorrvaskr (Companions).

Permissions and credits
For some reason, the headquarters of two major factions in Skyrim do not have their own map markers when their opposite numbers do. This makes use of two unused icons in the game data to add map markers for the Imperial Legion HQ at Castle Dour, and the Companions HQ at Jorrvaskr, to go along with the existing icons for the Stormcloak HQ at the Palace of the Kings, and the College of Winterhold. (Yes there's a bunch of other mods that also do something similar, but I couldn't find one that only adds these two markers and no others.) Both are standard "reveal on discovery" markers, and are enabled for fast travel.

A Note on Fast-Travel
If using the Jorrvaskr marker for fast-travel, note that you may inadvertently bypass certain quest triggers that are positioned elsewhere in Whiterun.
  • On returning from Dustman's Cairn during Proving Honor, Vilkas may not be waiting outside for you, as the trigger to move him outside is located at the Whiterun main gate. You will need to go inside and find him, or go back to the main gate to activate the trigger. (This is also a vanilla bug that can occur regardless of whether or not you fast-travelled into Whiterun.)
  • On returning from Glenmoril Coven during Blood's Honor, a crowd of gawkers should be commenting on the scene outside Jorrvaskr. The trigger for this scene is at the bottom of the steps, so you will need to go back down the steps to set that off.

There are no important scene triggers that I can see near Castle Dour, so that one should be fine.

Open Cities Skyrim
An alternate version of the mod is available for players who use Open Cities Skyrim. Once again I would like to stress the warning above regarding fast-travel and inadvertently bypassing quest triggers; OCS seems to have even more triggers than vanilla, so if something stops working, you may need to run around the city a few times. Play it safe - save before fast-travelling!
