📋 About This Mod
You stand within the precincts of the Soul Cairn, an otherworldly refuge dedicated to peace, love, eternal rest and harmony. - Ideal Master
This mod was reworked and is now part of a bigger mod called More to do in the Soul Cairn. Head there for the most recent and revoiced version of Grief!
Head to the Soul Cairn to find the soul of Angarion the Bold. He has arrived into the Soul Cairn but does not remember what happened to him. Fortunately for him, and for you, it seems that some shards of his memory have opened in the plane of Oblivion for you to explore the last places he's been to before having his soul taken away from his body.
This small, fully-voiced quest will quickly take Angarion through the supposed five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and ultimately acceptance. Help him out, and discover his tragic tale, as he understands that he will be stuck in the Soul Cairn forever.
