📋 About This Mod
You saw how the Greybeards opened that gate. "Bex," Master Borri said, and the metal bars flung right open. If only they would teach you the rest of that shout, the possibilities would be endless.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does this mod do? A: First, watch the video. Second, Unrelenting Force can force doors open, even locked ones.
Q: Will this open doors that need a key? A: No.

Q: Why do the doors sometimes open TOWARDS me when I shout? This isn't immerisve nor realistic! A: Doors only open one way. It would be cool to have the force of the shout blow the door off its hinges, the wood splintering into a million pieces that'll
