Suggestion:Could the Great Cities runes be given to us when we reach the rank of thane? The Dawnguard rune might not work if we are a vampire, but the Volkhiare rune, on the other hand, would require being a vampire to work.
I want this mod to be as lightweight as possible, to avoid as much mod incompatibilites as possible. Your suggestion is of course doable, but would require changes to main questline scripts, which in turn would make this mod incompatible with any mod, that touches these factions (or any quest regarding Thane rank). And there are a lot of these mods.
Plus - IMO - if these runes were blocked behind a certain point in questline for each hold/faction, then youd have to do a lot of radiant quests beforehand, which would require you to walk across the entire map many times. When you do get the rune, if wont have much reason returning to that place anyways, as you did most of the quests. This would defeat the purpouse of this mod. That is - to unlock teleportation in your first visit to given location.
Fantastic! I SOOOO wish this was in the base game. I never fast travel so surival is a natural fit for me. We should have some sort of emergency magic, like using a Dragon Soul or something to get out of a bad situation. This is anther great idea.

If you know where the teleportation runes are on your second playthrough, this mod is basically a cheat for survival mode
I'd rather pay a carriage for the sake of immersion
If there was perhaps a penalty, or maybe locking the runes for 1-3 in game days, this would be a valuable mod
I updated the mod to fix a typo and one rune using wrong texture in inventory : )
