Denizens of Morthal
Once upon a time, a hobbyist audio splicer discovered that she had created an abundant amount of rather nicely spliced dialogue lines for Skyrim and that, to her horror, she still knew nothing about the Creation Kit. It was a bit of a struggle, but she eventually made them into a mod.
Denizens of Morthal is that mod, and it is a dialogue and character expansion for the residents of the hold capital Morthal. It changes the schedules of the characters and allows them to converse with each other. It also acts as an overhaul for characters with ties to the area, namely Benor, Erandur, Valdimar, Eisa Blackthorn and Meeko.
This mod adds around 173 carefully spliced and synth-free NPC-to-NPC conversations. Most of these take place in Morthal, but some conversations are for specific characters to converse with each other (usually involving Benor, Eisa, Valdimar and Erandur), and their connections to other people in different locations, so be sure to take those four on your travels!
