📋 About This Mod
Description Adds a small daedric shrine to Alas Ancestral Tomb. The aim of this mod is to extend Mehrunes Dagon's quest, by making the acquisition of the rusty razor a more daunting endeavor. The ruble once blocking the mysterious remainder of the Alas Ancestral Tomb has been cleared, and the mysterious shrine of Nyarlathotep is now accessible once more.
The Alas family's worship of the "bad daedra" of the four corners of the house of troubles has led to the creation of an occult summoning ground. In a pact with the Ogrim, Nyarlathotep, Milvonu and Andrale Alas have created portals to bring daedra en masse to Nurn. Will you reclaim the razor for a more virtuous use? Or will you use it for a purpose even more nefarious?
Notes 1. This is an alpha release for play testing and bug finding purposes first and foremost. It has been cleaned of any dirty references by hand, but i make no promises that this ESP will have no negative effects on your saves.
2. This mod makes no alterations or references to Mehrune's Razor. It only relocates "A Rusty Dagger" to the aforementioned daedric shrine. It does alter very slightly the layout of Alas Ancestral Tomb, but only very slightly.
3. This mod currently contains no readme.
4. Morrowind Modathon, although this might achieve a full release during May, a full release this is not.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tightly integrated with an existing quest, so it feels like a natural extension rather than a random add-on
- Small and focused—doesn't overhaul the whole dungeon, just adds a meaningful obstacle
- Lightweight mod with a niche appeal, perfect for players who want a bit more challenge without a huge overhaul
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016—may be incompatible with the latest Skyrim versions or require patches
- Only 27 endorsements, so it's a niche mod with limited community testing
- No screenshots or detailed description provided, so you're going in blind on what the shrine looks like

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the mod file in your Data folder or use a mod manager like Vortex to avoid conflicts.
- Since it modifies an existing quest, check your load order to ensure it doesn't clash with other quest overhaul mods.
- If you're on Special Edition, you may need to port the mod or find a compatible version, as it's from 2016.
