📋 About This Mod

- Overview -
An overhaul to Honeystrand Grove, near Ivarstead

NavmeshedPatches Included

- What Is This? -
Honeystrand Cave is a small location near Ivarstead home to a couple bears. The cell name for this specifically calls it a grove instead of a cave. I was originally just going to change the location name for consistency in my list but I felt calling this place a grove to be incorrect since there were no natural aspects at all. And so I added a new waterfall, stream and enhanced terrain for the exterior and some more natural aspects like a pool of water to the interior. This has been fully navmeshed (albeit not very well).
