📋 About This Mod
Allows you to manually skip the Merlin Trial Cinematics
skip like you skip any other cinematic (Hold 'Right Click' on mouse & keyboard, hold 'Triangle/Y' on controller)
FAST TRAVELING MAY CAUSE THE GAME TO CRASH, THIS IS RELATED TO THE GAZEBO NOT FULLY BUILDING WHEN SKIPPING. I AM LOOKING AT AN ALTERNATIVE WAY TO SKIP

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 863 endorsements and 29k downloads.
- Works on both PC and controller—covers all players.
- Simple and effective: hold a button, skip the cutscene, no hassle.

- This mod doesn't affect other cutscenes, so don't expect it to skip everything—just Merlin Trials.
