Bruma - Applewatch - Next Of Kin - Draconis Family Lore Friendly Graves

This small mod (Flagged as ESL) adds readable inscriptions to the Draconis family graves at Applewatch, a location from TES IV Oblivion and revisited in Beyond Skyrim - Bruma SE.

Although the addition of the graves in BS Bruma was a nice touch, there was very little to inform you of why they were there, relying on you having played Oblivion to make the connection.

In short, as part of the Dark Brotherhood quest "Next of Kin" you had to assassinate the entire Draconis family bloodline spread out across different areas of Cyrodiil. At the end of the quest, the family members' graves would appear near their family farm, Applewatch. In Oblivion you could read the grave inscriptions, so it seems only fitting you can continue to do so.

Just install and activate the graves when you visit. The inscriptions are copied from TES IV Oblivion.

An optional patch for my mod Grave Digging - Necromancy Addon is included, allowing you to not only read the graves, but exhume them. The contents of the graves are based on the inventories and backstories of the Oblivion characters. A particular easter egg for fans of the Dark Brotherhood lore is added to one of the graves...

Note that due to textures not yet being released as part of of the wider Beyond Skyrim Cyrodiil mod, Caelia's grave contains Bruma guard armor, rather than lore accurate Leyawiin armor.

Note on installation: This ESP has file header version 1. 71, so Backported Extended ESL Support may be needed for older Skyrim versions < 1. 6. 1130 unless you want to convert yourself.

The robes worn in the images are a retexture from Dark Brotherhood Armors Retexture SE.
