"Were never meant to keep people out. They were meant to keep the Draugr in." - Death of a Wanderer
Galmar: "Ah! The Hall of Stories... we must be getting close now."
Soldier #1: "Oh... I've heard of this. They say these walls show the history of the ancients who built this place."
Soldier #2: "Too bad we can't read these carvings. Who knows what secrets we'd uncover?" - The Jagged Crown
DISCLAIMER
A very similar mod to this exists on LE called Solvable Dragon Claw Doors. While I never had the chance to play the mod, from the description it seems to be the same idea. My mod is not a port but rather built from the ground up using the same premise. If the author of that mod would like to send me a message, I'll happily credit them for the original idea.
Halls of Stories Retold
Ever wonder on the purpose of the Murals of the Hall of Stories? Despite what some claim, they are completely random and rarely relate to the answer key to the puzzle. Now they do. The mural furthest to the puzzle door corresponds to the answer on the outside ring, the one closest corresponds to the inner ring, etc. When there are 4 murals, I normally just repeated the inner ring. The only exception is Reachwater Rock, which features a poem on a note. It might be hard to read, especially if you use Enhanced Blood Textures, but that's part of the fun. The mod also modifies the text in the books Arvel's Journal and Death of a Wanderer that explicitly mention the clues on the palm.
Requirements
- Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch
- JS Dragon Claws - No Hints - without which the mod is redundant.
- JS Dragon Claws - Required for the above. Unfortunately no one has made one for the Anniversary Edition version...yet.
- 4k Nordic Murals OR Rustic Reliefs - Makes the reading of the Murals much easier.
Recommendations
- Lethal Traps - You now actually get punished if you make a mistake.
- Seriously Dark Dungeons - Really any mod that makes crypts darker, I like this one.
- Drop Lit Torches - Pairs well with a mod like above, Lanterns would also be good.
ESLified.
