📋 About This Mod

A traveller's respite from the biting cold.

Overhauls the lonely Nightgate Inn

All new merchants and NPCs

A nice cozy atmosphere for those passing by

This is probably my largest project to date that has been in the works for months now. Heljarchen Creek revives a cut location, sitting near the border between The Pale and Eastmarch, back into the game in an all new way with thanks to JPSteel for his COTN meshes. The new village consists of a merchant, a blacksmith, a fishery and a revamped interior for the Inn itself to become the perfect place to stop by on your travels through Skyrim's harsh winter climate. A big part of why I wanted to do this is actually because I found a leftover merchant chest underneath the landscape, this was obviously supposed to be used by a blacksmith at some point in development and I felt like I could revive this myself.

With help on the interiors from Temryuu, patching and fixes from Ivy and ChickenMike, this has been a pretty big collaborative effort and I would not have been able to do this without any of these people. Seriously go and show them all your love they deserve it.

For Bug Reports please use PostImg for sharing screenshots since I am in the UK and do not want to have to turn on my VPN every time I need to look at a screenshot lmao.
