... You don't want to be equipped in full thalmor armor at the beginning of the game ?
... You think it is not immersive to help M'rissi when you are a poor and weak victim ? (yeah, at level one, you are a victim)
This mod is for you !

Installation:

Replace esp by one from this mod.
If you install after you started your game but before met Thalmor patrol, open console and type: stopquest MRTstage0
