📋 About This Mod

Part of Ryn's Skyrim

An ongoing project with the goal of bringing Skyrim's Worldspace to a more updated level of detail with new locations, improved locations, and more interesting encounters, all while generally sticking to Bethesda's style of level design, and with performance and mod compatibility for the average player in mind.

 Ryn's Hod and Gerdur's House

An unremarkable interior, owned by what should be the wealthiest people in Riverwood, is far from portraying that wealth.

While I did not make Hod and Gerdur rich with coin, I made them rich with a beautiful home. Now with enough space to house everyone who lives there. If you're familiar with my other Riverwood Overhauls, this one follows the very same formula.

A Special Thank you

A very special friend of mine who encouraged me to start modding.

Those who have helped encourage me, helped with feedback, and supported my work, thank you.
