Spoiler: Mod suggestion (click to show/hide)

If we end up not going with any "join Dagoth" mods I'd suggest using Greater Dwemer Ruins because it really makes those endgame dungeons so much better.

Chapter 1 : "First Steps"
Part 4

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Greetings, Arrille! I have more goods from Balmora for sale.
Arrille : How come?
My caravan has just arrived with them, and you have been a good sport so far. Do you know what this is?


How.. wise of you! I shall put them right here then, and will return to you shortly with high quality potions from far north.


Officer, i have a crime to repo--
Imperial Guard : I have found you at last. Skooma is an illegal substance, you will hand over all flasks of this drug, as well as all the items that are present on this "Recently lost or misplaced" list.


--Outrage! Who dared to spread such blasphemy?! This list contants every single piece of equipment that i owe!
Guard : If you believe that a mistake was made, speak with the captain of the guard.
I shall! ( What has actually happened : i was caught trying to pick a lock ) Can i keep the list?
Guard : Very well.


Gravius : Ah, it is you again, what can i do for you?
I'm here to pick my items.
Gravius : One of the patrolling officers has just now brought a large shipment of confiscated goods. What exactly was stolen from you?
I have a list right here.
Gravius : Lost or misplaced?
I didn't want to believe that thieves run free in this city.


Gravius : It appears that the entire chest belongs to you.
Can i take the chest too?
Gravius : What..? No!
But i have been wronged!
Gravius : Take the items and go!


Gravius : Wait.. what am i saying. For all i know you could be the thief!
After all i have done for this town?!
Gravius : By order of the Sey--
Fargoth has a stash of gold hidden somewhere, i'm tracking it down.
Gravius : Did you just confess that you're about to commit a crime?
No. I have just told you that you'll receive a monetary gift once i find it.
Gravius : How dar--
How about Half of the stash?
Gravius : ..A pleasant day to you, citizen.
And to you, officer.


Ahh, how i love corruption.
There are a few more hours until midnight, perhaps i should spend them in the tavern. You there, are you of any use?


Raflod : Excuse me?
I'm asking if there are any services you can offer. Shallow Jokes perhaps? Every one except Nord history is fine with me. I've heard it from Hrisskar already.
Hrisskar : *Buurp* --what?
See? He repeats it over and over.
Raflod : I am a trainer. Proficient with a blade, medium armor and shield.
Let's get on with it.


*a few hours later*
That should be late enough. What the hell? Do these people never.. That must be it. They are ALL hunting for Fargoth's stash!


I will have the best view point though. Fargoth will not escape my eyes. Don't you agree, Thavere?


I know you would. We are a perfect couple.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There he is. It's a perfect opportunity to train my aiming skills. Let's see.. If the target is that far away, i must aim for the..


Aww--AWW Hand spasm! Phew, much bette-- what the--
Fuck.


Think, think.. First of all i have to get rid of the body. For now i'll move it behind this tree.. Damn it, he has no gold on him! It's no good, he's too heavy to drag him into the lighthouse. I will have to dismember him first.


That was close.. The blood should be washed away quickly by the rain. All i need to do is barricading the lighthouse from the inside, and climbing down from it, so that it will take ages to find the body.


Now to find the stash.
Observant Imperial : It's in the tree stump.
Wha..?
Observant Imperial : Gravius sends his regards.


And here i was planning to take all the gold. It's best i share with Gravius.
...here it is. Quite a bit of gold. Let's see. 100 for Gravius, 200 for me, ring for me, lockpick for me, and story of how Fargoth fled with the gold for Hrisskar.


Done. Now my business with this city is concluded, and i shall head to--


--to.. err.. Balmora, i guess?
I will have to think it through, and nothing helps me come up with ideas more, than stealing and looting!


Indrele's house? I don't expect to find too much here, but i can't be picky. Some salt rice, some meat, a few potions.. I'm fine with that.


..and finally, i have to mark it in the same subtle way.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Ah, greetings, Indrele.


You are right, of course, i thank you for your concern.
Indrele : Wait a minute.. what is this? A bucket.. and a torch?


What? Where? You are seeing things, my dear. I suggest you take a quick nap.


Indrele : But i see... Perhaps you are right, it was a long day.
Good night to you.


Indrele : ..i wonder..
How did she notice my hidden clues..?! She's too much to handle, i better leave.


Erene : Can i help you, outlander?
That depends, where do you live?


Erene : We're standing in front of my house right now.
Ah, a splendid piece of finest architecture in Vvardenfell. Perhaps you would want to sell it?


Erene : Well.. Let me quickly discuss it with my wife. Do you wish to come with me?
No, thank you, i will admire this fine shed from outside.
Erene : I will be back in a few minutes.
Then i do have a few minutes of time.


Forks, spoons, potions, salt rice.. In a word : Crap. Still, i can brew potions from the ingredients, and sell the rest to Arrile. One thing is missing though.. Ah, there it is! Splendid.


No torches though, this lantern will have to do.
Erene : I'm back. I'm truly sorry, outlander, but my wife has declined your offer.
A shame, truly. I shall keep looking then. Good day to you.
Erene : What is this bucket..?
What bucket?
Erene : Eh? Nothing, i.. must lay off alcohol.


I have a strange feeling, that it will all come back some day, to bite me in the ass.


And not in a kinky way.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

One more shack, before i move to the more profitable targets. I wonder who does it belong to. It's not even closed. Ha!


What a fool leaves his shack open, it's like inviting thieves to take everything, including chairs.
Argonian : Ke?
Oh, sorry, i thought this shack was mine.


That was close.. Thankfully argonians aren't too bright. Still, my sacks are quite heavy, so i better visit my good friend Arrille and dispose of the-- Who is this? An assassin perhaps?


Nope, just a random drunkard. I feel like watching myself, a few decades ago.


When did i start drinking anyway? I think the correct answer is t-- Whoa, you might want to..


..watch out for th--...


..Is this some kind of a dance? Morrowind's Heavy Buzz?


He's heading for the edge! This should be good!


No shit, skippy. I'm standing right next to you. Now fall! Fall!


Drunkard : Wh--wuhh? Where.. i be?
Oh, poor creature.


Let me give you a little push..

Added the following mods :
 book of evocation, what not to say, dwemer armor replace, female guards, construction, tough skeleton key, tal fel, skill up ledger, night helmets and more.
Including, but not limited to, four mods that will allow us to build an empire. (Revealing them would be a heavy spoiler! Still, i know that there ARE some people that prefer ball-breaking spoilers over secrecy, so if you - viewer - wish to know the FULL list of mods, bother me on PM, so that it will be spoiled only for you, and not for everyone.)

All comments, feedback, suggestions and death threats are - as always - welcome. Also note, that should the LP get trolled into oblivion / all viewers leave / all viewers leave AND i get trolled into oblivion, i will continue playing the game for fun. So don't be afraid to be blunt! Ahoy

I was considering the Dwemer Ruins mod, but to be perfectly honest, our main LP goal is completely unrelated to the main quest
We will finish it, of course (unless we decide to switch sides. I will add a vote on that.. But it's a very long way from chapter 1 - did i mention that the game is long?) but glory, fame and power gained from the MQ is not enough.
Not for us.

Chapter 1 "First Steps"
Part 5

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Whoop-di-doo, Eldafire's gold, i'm coming for you.


On the other hand, i will loot this house first. Vodunius protects his house with a terrible lock, the cheapest one i have ever see--


What the.. It locked again on its own! Now i MUST loot this house, if only to prove a point.
Is someone watching me?


Guard : Oh, he noticed us.
Guard 2 : He clearly is the master of thievery.
Is there an officer, problem?
Guard : What are you doing here?
Fixing the doors?
Guard 3 : In the middle of the night?
Less traffic.
Guard 2 : Right.


You know that i will loot this house regardless of what happens here, right?
Guard : Touche.
Guard 2 : We don't have time for this, we have to find out what happened to Fargoth.
Guard 3 : ..very well.
Ah, so as long as i'm not linked to disappearance of Fargoth, i should be safe. Still, Seyda Neen is a shithole, and it won't be so easy to get away in the proper cities.
Not that it will help Vodunius...


..No silverwares, books, gold or magical items, i'm almost wasting time here. Still, one has to stick to the plan.. Have a bucketorch.


With how poor those houses are, it will take me a while to make enough money, to buy this city. Unless.. Yes, this is brilliant - as all my ideas are - Alchemy! By mixing this pile of muck, this here residue, and these rocks..


Arrille, my good friend! I have potions mixed from the rarest and most expensive of exotic goods!
Arrille : Ah, is that so? I am not an expert in alchemy.. (This should fool him. Muck and rocks potions are extremely valuable!)
Perfect! I will give you a discount, we are good friends after all! (and by that, i mean that i will charge you a pile of gold for each useless vial of dirt and gravel)


I have some more muck and rocks stashed in the lightho-- This looks like trouble.


If he finds the body of Fargoth.. Damn it. There is only one way to solve this problem.

All it takes, is a quick stab to th--
Guard : Can i help you?
..Awkward.


Guard : What are you doing, citizen?
..Scratching my back?
Guard : Your back?
Yes, there is a spot i can only reach with my saber.
Guard : Oh.


(Silly orc)
Guard : Mind if i ask you a few questions about Fargoth?
I did NOT kill him, nor did i dismember his body and stash it in the light house..
Guard : WHA--
What i've meant to say, is : "Who is Fargoth" (i always get these two mixed up..)
Guard : You will come with me to the--
Theoretically speaking.. If you, kind sir, touch me i will cut out your face and wear it as a mask.


Guard : Over my dead body, Criminal Scum!
That's the whole point.. DIE!


Now, let's see if it fits.. It may be gross, but one should be open to new solutions. I need a mirr-- how convenient, he had one on himself. Let's.. SWEET AZURA! THIS-- AHHHH!


Screw this, orc masks are overrated. I prefer my warm, fuzzy helmet. It is soaked with blood, but in this rain i can not risk my hair getting messed up. I need to speed things up, the amount of bodies is slowly piling up. There is just one important thing that i have to do..


..I just wouldn't be able to sleep at night if i didn't loot it.


This is by far the best looking house in Seyda Neen. I could say here forever..


..Unfortunately, she only has enough valuable items to pick my interest for a few minutes tops. This book looks promising though..


I will have to quickly visit Arrile before leaving, what i need is a weapon capable of hurting incorporeal foes.. It would have to be made of..


Now i'm getting suspicious.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I'm almost certain, that there is nothing else of any value, time to leave this home, and this town.


Still, i feel like i've missed something essential. (can you see it, viewer?)


Oh, that's right! Now everything is in order.
Guard : --that's right, all roads are blocked. We are cut off from the rest of Vvardenfell.
Peasant : That's terrible! How long will it take to clear the passages?
Guard : There are dozens of slaves working on it all the time. A day, perhaps two.
DAYS?! But i have to get out of town in the next half hour..


..I know, there is one place where i can hide for a day or two, barricade myself inside and sneak out when the road is clear.


Fargoth's house!
Let's see.. with the doors blocked, i will have to find something to--
Assassin : Die! Fetcher
What the--?!


Good thing i.. got a few spare potions.. THERE! DIE!


Who would want me dead?! Have i ever wronged anyone?!
Assassins never work alone, where there is one, there are also others.. I better take his clothes and armor. Is there a back window here..? Yes! Perfect! I still have a chance then.


Assassin : What is taking him so long? The guards reported the target to be a feeble douche.
As i expected!


Assassin : Wha--?
With a stab here, and a stab there, your pain shall be severe.


Ah.. slippery bloo-- Ah balls Balls! BALLS!

If not for the fire cauterizing my wounds, i would bleed to death! Sweet irony.. If only irony wouldn't hurt so much..


More potions..!
Assassin : What?! This is unf--
The unfair part is me having a shield. Die already!


I have clearly won this fight, and he barely scratched me! .. now to stop the bleeding..


He fought bravely, and was a worthy opponent. I shall loot his body and leave it for the rats and birds.


Guard : STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM!
What is it NOW?!
Guard : I.. uhh..


Guard : I will just leave you alone, good si-
No, you will answer a few questions!


Dark Brotherhood? After ME? Damn it all, it has to be the work of that spoiled brat, the..
Guard : Huh?
Ah, you are still here.. Very well, i shall ask you more questions.. Who is Apelles Matius?


Don't pull my leg.
Guard : Listen, i have no idea. They have just told me to repeat this name whenever someone gets attacked.
They?
Guard : "They" is used to refer to two or more people or things previously mentioned or easily identified
...I'm leaving.


Guard : Where are you heading?
Wherever the road takes me.

Chapter 1 : "First Steps"
Part 6

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

If I had any doubts about this trip, the weather change would get rid of them as swiftly, as dunmer females get rid of their virginity. I don't see myself going back to the damn swamps around Seyda Neen.


Let's see.. Balmora to the left. Hostile wastelands to the right. Quite an easy choice.
There should make signs like this for religion. With Happiness, prosperity, tolerance to the left, and the word temple pointing to the right.


..and the rain stopped completely! You there! Fear not, my mood has improved enough for me to drop the desire to kill every single dunmer i meet. At least until we trade words.


What can i do you for? ...Oh, you are a MALE! Excuse me, you all look the same to me.


..Right. Are you from the royal family? I wonder if i should pretend to know you, if only to avoid a death row for insulting the drunken bunch of half-breeds that some call the ruling Morrowind family.


(as you can see the dialogue choices are poor in Morrowind, so we'll have to pack option 3..)
You want my 50 gold pieces? Let us roshambo for them. I'll go first.
Nels : What is roshamb--


I won again! Splendi-- Damn it all! The guards are after me! It's time to use my superior sneaking skills. I can hide in plain view, these mongrels will not see me even if i decide to stand in front of them!..
But i'll hide in these bushes just in case..


Guard 1 : We have been standing here for a while now..
Guard 2 : And we will stand here for a while longer, the criminal will pass through here soon.
Guard 3 : Can we be so sure?


Silly guards, i shall never be found. It surprises me that They found out about Fargoth so soon, but it doesn't matter. All i have to do is skip imperial towns. It shouldn't be too difficult, but the forts and villages of theirs are so small and luxury depraved that one can waltz inside on accident. One minute you're exploring some ruins, fighting bug-eyed, shambling monsters, and the next one you realize that it's an imperial town and you've murdered twelve people. Again.


I better withdraw for now and find a place to rest. A few hours should be enough for them to assume that i have slipped through..


This looks like a cave. Let's hope that it's uninhabited. I've seen enough unwashed, sweating monstrosities for one day.


After all, i just today left Seyda Neen.
Damn it all, there is someone inside. (Light)


Hello, i have used weapons for sale.
Redguard Bandit : Only a fool enters our hideout!
But these weapons are of high quality! Allow me to demonstrate.


..whoops..


I should have tied the shoelaces before entering, do you mind giving me a hand? I Can not kill you effectively when i'm knee--- *ooof*


This is not a good day.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Funny, if her axe didn't get stuck in my scapula, she could have attacked me again, and i would die for sure. Look at all this blood, i didn't even know i had it in me.


I guess i should drink some healing potions.. I still could take the entire world even in my current condition, but i might get a spasm or trip on a stairway.. or get knocked unconscious by how ugly my next foe is. Yes, this is a good excuse.


That's how i will have the world remember this day, when bards will compose a song about my glorious life. The enemies have struck me, because i was generous enough to allow them to feel good before dying.


An underground bridge? I hope that nobody will try to deny me passage.


Oh.. there he is. Did he see me i wonder? I hope that he did.
I'll fire a warning shot.


Damn it all, i've meant to hit the ground next to his feet. Let's try again..


..Hmm. I guess i'm ok with enemies dying before touching me. Still, it feels pretty weird..


Or maybe i'm just hungry? I'll need a new target to confirm my theory.. A curious mage? Perfect.


Let's see.. I'm feeling a bit dizzy and hungry, but otherwise ok... Now i fire the arrow.. The target dies.. And i feel...


..better. Am i a bloodthirsty murderer then? Nonsense. I like other things besides killing! Like.. soup. Do killers like soup? And why is there an arrow sticking from my chest? Killers do not like sou-- SWEET MOTHER OF MERCY! AN ARROW!


You bloody, sneaky archer! Only the lowest form of scum shot people from hiding! Which leads to a questions... Do you like soup..?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

An epic archery duel to brighten my day, and make the blood flow. A shame that it keeps flowing OUTSIDE of my body, but i've emerged victorious nonetheless.


And really, the fight was in my pocket the entire time, she never was even close to winning.


I'm all out of healing potions though, so perhaps, just perhaps, i should be more careful.


All this sneaky ranged attacking is appealing in moments like this. Hell, i think i'll do that more often.


Wait just a minute.. Haven't i learned a healing spell from Arrille? I did. *looks around* Good, nobody is here to witness a moment of shame.


I would have to kill them.. Now, how does it work.. I have to wave with the left hand, as if i wanted to greet with someone, and with the right hand, as if my arm was broken. Now just the phrase...


What do you know.. Altmer magic actually works for once. Unlike the damn "grow your junk in size in one afternoon" ripoff. These spells never work as intended.


It took me three weeks to get rid of that nasty rash, Not that i needed any increase, it's just.. for science sake.. yes, that's it!
You there! You hear me? For SCIENCE sake only!


Bandit Leader : What? How did you get this far!? DIE!


Oh, that's right, i was supposed to remain sneaky and unseen until i take the shot. Assassinations are HARD!.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Nameless Bandit Leader : Why.Won't.You.DIE?!
I have three daughters that wouldn't want their father to die.


On the other hand, it could as well be three hundred daughters. I've lost track of all those children of mine a long time ago.


Still, i can share some wisdom with you. If you're bankrupt and homeless for months, sleep with everything that moves. The more children you have, the bigger the chance that one of them is going to become a mayor, solving all your problems and-- Hey! Don't you dodge my attacks!


Now where was i.. Grr... You've interrupted me and i forgot what i was rambling about this time. I guess i'll focus on the fight now.


Stab.


There, are you happy now? That's what happens to rude people, they DIE before i share my wisdom with them.


And so i have yet another hideout. I won't be staying here for long. Too close to imperials. I will loot it though.. But first.. A good book--


--and a comfy bed--


--will make the next few hours quite comfy.
..Still, the soup issue deserves some more attention. I will have to investigate in the future.

That's right, we're back! But are we entertaining? You tell me.
