Features:

- Adds a great place to relax and sell goods on your way to Balmora, Stoneflower trading post enhances the landscape, plus there's a simple quest that lets you explore a new egg mine nearby;

- Unique Khajiit bard Possya who's inspired by my cat (Ruffin Vangarr created her head based on the photo below, thank you very much!);

- New awesome helmet by Ruffin Vangarr - Imperial Dust Helm + new cool amulet;

- You can't rent a bed at the Stoneflower trading post, because the rooms are constantly occupied by the merchants, but in case you wanna stay there, the owners can offer you to buy a room downstairs, it costs 2000 gold.

- Version 1. 7 adds a new dungeon to explore.

Recommended mods:

Check out Iceholme Retreat! It adds a new merchant to the road near near this trading post. You can go on a new adventure!

Check out Ald'Ruhn Outskirts - Ancestral Refuge to enhance that area!

Possya's bard script is based on a wonderful mod Bards of Bardenfell by Von Djangos, but doesn't require it.

The mod is designed to look good with vanilla landscape, but if you want it to look similar to my screenshots you can install my Balmora Arches and a Waterfall + The Stonewood pass reworked by RandomPal + The Beacons of Mamaea by Kalinter.

Devilish Rocky West Gash by DetailDevil is now compatible! (please update it to Version 2. 2)

Beautiful cities of Morrowind is compatible

Moonlight on the Odai River (+ its patch included in BCOM installer) is compatible

Please use this patch by Lucevar (Even More Illuminated Order Improved Fixes) if you have Illuminated Order Improved installed!

Stonewood Pass Water Lanterns by Markond is a wonderful addition to the area!
