Resdaynia Wanderers

This almost feels like Aeronwen and Gloria managed to slip out of the Elder Scrolls universe and ended up in the Old West. Or perhaps I should say, the "Elder West".

...Sounds like a possible new game. ;)



This is my new desktop wallpaper. :) I took the shot when I was just having Aeronwen ride around Highwood/Anvil/Gold Coast and enjoying the scenery. Although Aeronwen likes cozy little Millstone (as do I), I have to agree with Neldor about Highwood; it's the better place for a family. It's near Valenwood, has a larger house, doesn't feel so walled in and cut off from everything, is near the town of Anvil (but not TOO near), and the children have a lot more room to play and ride their ponies.

[I have a bad case of "the grass is greener at the other farm" when it comes to Highwood and Millstone.]

If I were to replay my "Family in Cyrodiil game", I think I would forego the whole "ride around aimlessly trying to find a home" and just say that Aryc really pulled some strings and managed to get a good price for Highwood for them. The whole "kill the insanely strong lich to get the key" would be done off-camera (even using the console kill command to get by him).

So...yeah...these are my ramblings after spending the evening riding back and forth around the Gold Coast.

While in Pell's Gate this afternoon I saw a few more nice sized crafting items in the Sleeping Mare Inn that I decided to add to my Highwood patch; a cheeser presser, a cheese starter vat, a fruit juice extractor, another butter churn, and a milk bottling pot. I also added some coffee and tea bushes to the garden. With this patch, Highwood now has a little more to offer than Millstone.
