📋 About This Mod

Notes

  • []Requires new game

    []Place this mod under "Better Quest Objectives", "Skyrim Souls" and "Requiem - general_NPC_tweaks" if you use them

    []Elenwen is disabled since she is needed later in Main Quest

    []Requiem compatible (order doesn't matter)

  • You can still complete quest in original way

    Also, for non-Dragonborn characters, it allows you to go into Embassy before starting "Diplomatic Immunity" (breaks Main Quest) and kill everything inside, including Elenwen.

    By the way, after you get information on Esbern and escape Thalmor Embassy you can skip Delphine in Riverwood and go straight to Riften (vanilla behavior).

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

A gameplay mod for Skyrim that lets you skip the party segment of the 'Diplomatic Immunity' quest and head straight to the Thalmor Embassy. It's for players who want to bypass Delphine's orders and get to the action faster. With 228 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche but functional tweak.
