📋 About This Mod
This mod adds the thanedom of Granitehill, ruled by Clan Vuljot who is now under the sway of a new heretical prophet teaching a dangerous heresy.
Thane Brynoth and his clan have largely fallen under the influnece of Gudir the "Holy" a Preacher who supposedly was trained at High Hrothgar and preaches that Shor and Talos are one. However dissent exists in the town with Brynoth's Daughter Brigitta.
Who will you choose to assist in this power struggle?
The quest added is a small one, dialogue heavy but small.
The town comes with a Black Smith, Tavern and General Store along with a shrine to Talos.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid download-to-endorsement ratio (5,782 downloads, 47 endorsements) suggests players are grabbing it.
- Adds a fresh lore-driven location for explorers who want new content.
- Recent update (Feb 2025) shows the author is still active.
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (47) means it's not widely tested or community-vetted.
- No detailed feature list, so you're going in blind on what exactly the thanedom includes.
- Potential compatibility issues with other mods that alter the same worldspace or add similar settlements.
For Skyrim players who crave new lore-rich locations and don't mind a bit of mystery. If you're a completionist who wants to discover every hold and settlement, this is a neat addition. Skip if you prefer polished, well-documented mods with clear feature lists.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a new location, check your load order to ensure it doesn't conflict with other city overhauls.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to easily enable/disable if issues arise.
- Visit the thanedom early to see if the new prophet's questline integrates with your current playthrough.
