📋 About This Mod

Complete overhaul of the official 'Vile Lair' DLC, featuring full voice acting with the original voices, delving deep into the history of Greywyn Blenwyth and the Crimson Scars and having Rowley Eardwulf become a potential follower.

Over 60 new lines of dialogue for Rowley Eardwulf; new dialogue for when you first meet him, comments on each upgrade, his backstory, the history of Greywyn and the Crimson Scars, unique barter dialogue and more.

After buying all upgrades, you can talk to Rowley and he'll propose travelling with you. From then on, you can ask him to accompany you at any time as a permanent follower.

*A new rumour regarding Deepscorn Hollow in the Imperial City and southern cities of Cyrodiil.

I hope you find this overhaul to be a huge improvement in regards to immersion and character exploration over the original DLC.
