📋 About This Mod

What is this mod?

From Wind Into Stone tells a story about a place long forgotten, and tries to provide a window into events which I think aren't portrayed too expansively elsewhere. I made it to explore a question, keeping myself as closely in-line with firmer lore as I could, while still taking advantage of gray areas and hints - points that aren't quite so iron-clad and invite imagination.

The result is lore-friendly (...ish) but I made it for myself, and it has very much grown out of my own thoughts on the matter. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I still invite you to to try it.

What does this mod do?

This mod adds a dungeon that's really more of a walking-sim once you get past the front door. The entrance can be found in the Foyada Ashur-Dan, i.e. the place the devs themselves forgot.

It also adds a number of custom assets - many modified from vanilla and OAAB, and many made from scratch by yours truly. A (slightly) more detailed breakdown can be found in the readme.

Installation:

If you are using a mod-manager, simply download and let it take care of the rest. If you cannot or will not use a mod manager, copy the contents of this archive into your data files directory.

Compatibility:

This mod was made to be compatible by default - unless another mod adds a great deal to , then you shouldn't have any issues starting this mod.

Requirements:

This mod is not dependent on, but I find works really well with A River of Fire by Damius. I strongly recommend it. Lava is fun.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to check the Molag Amur region on your map—the cave is easy to miss, so keep an eye out for unusual rock formations.

  • Since it's a small mod, it's safe to install mid-playthrough, but always keep a save before adding new content just in case.
