This mod adds an extensive quest, leading you to various places all over Skyrim. In addition to new locations and dungeons you'll meet new NPCs with more than 200 fully voiced lines of dialogue spoken by three actors. The playing time is about two to three hours. You'll find a corpse on the Carth river shore. The person died without any apparent signs of physical trauma. Around the person's neck you'll recognize a shiny, black amulet. You grab it without hesitation. Waking up you find yourself drenched in sweat in the "Four Shields Tavern" in Dragonbridge. A young Vigilant of Stendarr is watching over you. Upon closing your eyes, you can hear it in the distance again: Pained voices and dark shadows haunting you in feverish delerium... The quest starts at the Solitude Sawmill (south of Katla's Farm) where you will find a corpse on a little sandbank in the middle of the river. This is the English translation of the German Mod "Der Schatten von Meresis".
