📋 About This Mod
What is this?
The Solitude Docks are said to be the largest and busiest in all of Skyrim. What we see in the game is one dock with two ships ready to unload their goods. I wanted to change that. There are a multitude of other Solitude Dock mods and city mods that add docks but in my opinion they add TOO much. I tried to keep things feeling as vanilla as possible with this mod.
What is added?
An entire new village hosting street vendors and shops. A new Inn called the Fo'c's'le in reference to Oblivion. The inn has a large comfortable rent able room and is a known hangout for traveling merchants. The Under the Arch Smithy where Haaking Hard-Heart works his forge for the ships and local guard. The Bread and Batter Bakery has the freshest sweetest pies in Solitude. Wandering the streets you'll never run out of vendors to browse and haggle with.
There is also a free player home containing a large master bedroom, a follower room and a bedroom for two children. You will need to use a mod such as My home is Your Home for follows and the likes to live here. The home has a basement enchanting lab, alchemy lab, and forge plus a sharpening wheel and a workbench. All storage in the home is safe.
