IMPORTANT! Leave behind all your companions, for example Lydia ... In the course of the quest, you will be teleported to different places, waht can lead to complications, even after completely navmeshed dungeons

Possible Problems:

While sneaking, not a single monster will attack:

To every enemy in this mod, a script has been added, which ensures that after spawning, the enemy prospect the player. However, it may happen that your sneak skill is so high, that the enemy does not see you and will not even attack. For an authentic game experience, I recommended, not to use the sneak mode...

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust: 6,944 endorsements and 129k downloads show it's a proven quest mod.
  • Taps into the classic Skyrim vibe—mysterious mine, creepy noises, and a hero's call to explore.
  • Ties into Riverwood, a familiar starting area, making it easy to jump into the quest early.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2012—might have compatibility issues with the latest Skyrim versions or DLCs.
  • No mention of voice acting or custom assets, so it might rely on vanilla assets and text-based storytelling.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love exploring new dungeons and solving mysteries in the base game world. If you're a completionist who wants more quests near Riverwood, this is a solid pick. Skip if you need fully voiced, story-rich mods—this one might be more old-school.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to check the mod's load order—place it after the official DLCs to avoid conflicts.
  • Visit Riverwood early to trigger the quest; the mine is south of the town, so keep an eye out for it.
  • If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid manual errors.
