📋 About This Mod

Please feel free to translate this mod into any language.

ABOUT:

A new standalone mod for Whiterun interior city which is in keeping with Nordic tradition with an atmospheric and natural feel for the city.  The mod expands on the Nord influence, reflecting their way of life as I interpret it. The interior is of course a reflection as the influence of the empire and the elves are impacting on Skyrim, with a way of life, with the heart of Nordic life which is slowly being put to the sword...in the name of others truths! You are The People Of Skyrim --

PLEASE NOTE--TPOS 2 V10 HAS ITS OWN
