📋 About This Mod
Overview says it all. TCIY is a master.
Mod flagged as ESL.
Fixes a conflict between TCIY not allowing the altar to be broken with House of Horrors - QE mod installed.
Can be added mid-play BEFORE entering the house(preferably before the quest starts, but testing showed right up till you enter the house).
