I just added a few more touches to the "Rustic Cottage" by the Odai River, including an outdoor pottery kiln near the workshop. The inside of the workshop itself has been left empty so it can be further decorated using furniture and other items from Morrowind Crafting. The place could almost look like a little art and pottery shop when it's all done, not that the shop would see much traffic being away from town and tucked away near some foothills.
Another little detail is that I added some Ascadian Isles trees outside the windows of the cottage's interior. They are animated to move slightly as though there is a light breeze. It really adds a lot to the feeling of being out in the wilderness from within the interior.
Overall I'm very pleased with how this little project turned out. Another reason the location I chose works is because there is the sound of water within the interior; the same sound that is heard from the nearby Odai River. The same with the wooden chimes that hang right outside the door.
I really can't wait for Aeronwen and Neldor to move into it, but I don't want to rush their relationship just so they can go live in this beautiful little cottage. Granted, it's too small for a growing family, but I think it would be quite a while before they would need to worry about that.
Hopefully they (or Aengoth, depending on how I end up writing this) can get a good deal for the property when the time comes. Then, just as they settle in to begin their quiet life, Thorinor shows up and says to Neldor, "We need to get the band back together."
On second thought, Thorinor needs to show up before the handfasting so he can tease his little brother mercilessly about the wedding night.
Thorinor: "Just try not to worry about it. I'm sure you'll do fine. As long as she doesn't laugh. Laughter isn't a good sign. Nor is crying. You really don't want your bride to end up sobbing. So as long as there is no laughing or crying, you should be good."
...Perhaps Thorinor should bring along a date who can keep him reined in. LOL
