Long live new adventures!

But only upon arriving on the island did I realize that it was not as cold as expected: no snowdrifts, only green grass and mighty spruce trees towering somewhere in the distance above a huge gray stone fort built by the imperials. Azura take them! And here the empire managed to lay its dirty hands on the clean lands of Soltsheim, and even decided to rebuild a village nearby! It was necessary to figure out whether I was a Nerevarine after all or not? So where is their boss?? I didn’t have to search for long, because every soldier passing nearby happily sent me to his commander. Looks like no one here has heard of the Nerevarine. Well, I break into his chambers with chrysamer at the ready and instead of a pleading cry of “mercy!"I hear a commander’s voice saying, ‘Help me!!». After all, you see, there was no booze left in the fort, and supplies miraculously stopped. As a result, the soldiers’ morale dropped completely. How can you live on such a cold island, filled with all kinds of creepy creatures, without drinking?? Yes, with ease, because behind such strong walls we are not afraid of Mehrun Dagon himself, although who knows..

Bloodmoon essentially represents a standard, Besezdov addition: new, uncharted lands, weapons, quests, plot… What you don’t tell about will stupidly spoil, but you can’t help but mention some things, so I decided to arrange a kind of excursion around the island of Soltsheim, we’ll only go through the most important places of this bizarre island. But first, take a look at the map below, where I marked our route:

Of course, the empire came here not just to fight terrible creatures, but also to earn a few gold coins, since this island is a storehouse of various valuable minerals, for example ebonite. Therefore, the Imperials quickly realized where to dig, or rather where, their gaze fell on Raven Rock. It looks like an unremarkable forest with a huge rock in the center, but if you look closely, this rock is a pure ingot of gold, in the eyes of the imperials, of course, and there is a rich deposit of ebonite, so we need to quickly develop everything here, build a mine with a small village, and attract workers, since our sponsors are very rich individuals..

If you think about it, Raven Rock is one of the most interesting series of quests in general in Morra. You will be directly involved in the construction of mansions, you will decide what is more important to residents at the moment: a store with small household trinkets? Or an armory with swords and axes? But first, we need to attract more workers to the mine, residents to improve the town, and guards for protection… Naturally, we cannot do without problems, then the city will be attacked by various, unknown creatures, or the miners will accidentally dig up an ancient mound with an unknown, impenetrable substance. And if you add in numerous intrigues, betrayals and deep moral choices, you get one of the longest and most exciting quests in the history of the series! And the reward will be one of the most worthy, because not only will we be able to take new weapons and armor with us, but we will also be able to rebuild our own mansion, and what a! I assure you, you will immediately want to move into it from your most beautiful mansion, because here there is spiritual beauty, incomparable, simple in appearance, but rich inside, in general, you will need to see it with your own eyes and believe me, you will not be disappointed..

Going deeper into the forest, I felt that it was getting cooler. The green grass gave way to a white veil, and soon grew into ten-meter snowdrifts. A terrible cold chilled me to the bones and I decided to stay in a small wooden house in the middle of the forest. Oddly enough, the door was not locked, so holding the sword in one hand, I carefully opened it. Warm air rushed out in a powerful stream and I ran into the house without a drop of doubt. "Hooray. Warm. “- I shouted joyfully, so much so that even the man in the yellow cap staggered. An amazing aroma reigned in the house, so sweet and intoxicating to the mind that I immediately wanted to taste it… And the cheerful little man was humming an interesting song: Sweets, bagels, what a aroma, Uncle Sweet Share is just a magician… I will stop here, dear readers, because there will be spoilers further, I will say only one thing: I quickly grabbed a fur coat from the nearest chest of drawers and ran out, paying attention to the one lying there’s a corpse nearby..

Walking around the island alone is an extremely risky business, either a brown bear will attack from behind, or a pack of wolves will bite you under a spruce tree, and you won’t be able to hide in the mounds, the draugr, as fast as the wind, will beat you to death there, and you won’t even have time to blink an eye. In general, there are enough dangers for low-level heroes, there is nothing to do here, and high-level ones will have a hard time, because even a bunch of smugglers can easily let you feed on the local fauna. Therefore, before going to the island, make sure that you have everything you need and chrysamere, by the way, is also not an argument, for example, with long blades pumped up to a hundred and level twenty, I could almost defeat several Rieklings, which, in principle, after Morra with her fairly easy opponents, I was very pleased.

But let’s continue our journey, climbing a high mountain, from afar I could already see Lake Fjalding frozen in ice, on which white horkers glided merrily. It was impossible not to notice Thirsk, the pearl of the island of Soltsheim. Here, brave Nord warriors gather around the fire to listen to stories of exciting adventures, drink a glass of mead and show off the trophies received from the hunt. The skins of white wolves and bears are now in price, but don’t even think about selling them, because they can be used to make cool fur armor that will more than once save you from severe frosts on an ice-bound island. Here you can learn the history of Thirsk and even in the future become… Eh, well, here are those damned spoilers again, well, there’s no escape from them. Hmm, well, it’s not my fault that the quests here are so interesting!

Our time has come

After drinking a free glass of honey, I went to the village of Skalov. Here the Nords live according to their own strict laws and do not like strangers, especially the Imperials, who have disrupted the delicate natural balance on the island, and we will have to take the rap, as always. In order to restore the balance of power, you will have to make a pilgrimage to the stones of the elements and I would say this work is not easy. Well, don’t worry, because we were given a map with a picture of all the stone altars, but unfortunately their location is quite approximate, so be prepared to do a fair amount of running and searching. Eh, okay, if only we could find these stones, we also need to perform a ritual, well, to help a poor animal or deal with a particularly evil Riekling who stole the sacred seeds. And this is perhaps one of the most difficult parts of Bloodmoon, because as you know, we don’t have a compass, so it would be good to know all the cardinal directions and have eagle vision, so as not to lose sight of anything important..

After you make friends with the Rocks, the main quest will quickly begin to develop. An old shaman will tell you the story of the Blood Moon prophecy. Once every thousand years, the Daedra prince Hircine with his retinue of werewolves (werewolves) kidnaps the best fighters and arranges hunting games. It is preceded by three signs: “Fire from a glass eye”, “Tide of grief” and “Blood moon…” You can learn about this and much more from the lips of the shaman himself. The quest itself is really interesting, but what’s even more pleasing is that it’s non-linear. No, of course there will be only one ending, but you can still make some choices..

North wind, why are you crying??
What have you lost in the snow that doesn’t melt??
The flame on the lake means a lot,
The tide of sorrow washes over the shore.
Bloody lashes flow from the sky,
What the cold thickets strip.
Enemy networks have been set up again.
The sons of wolves howl more and more often.
The forest freezes in anticipation of grief:
Who will be the victim predicted by fate?
Burn inexorably in the sea of ​​stars
Both crimson mocking eyes.
The snowy expanse stretches into the distance.
Black shadows are cast at night.
They hit the snowdrifts with their paws and bark
In a frantic rhythm, wolf harbingers.
The cast of lots has chosen its victim – A flock is sent on the right trail.
You cannot escape this fate, O mortal.
What do you deserve? Death? Victory?
The flame on the lake means a lot,
The tide of sorrow washes over the shore.
North wind, why are you crying in vain??
Look how the Blood Moons burn.

The reward for completing the main quest is also pleasing, especially the hircynium ring, which if I tell you about, then what? That’s right, I’m going to spoil it, so I can only show you:

I would not like to end our journey with a story about the plot, so I decided to mention another most famous place – of course, the glaciers of Mortrag and the ice castle of the frosty Karstaag, the lord of the Rieklings. You can only get there by following the plot, but in those years, for some reason it struck me with its beauty..

Let the honey flow forever!

Bloodmoon is the best addition in the series. Here is everything that a fan’s soul could desire: interesting quests that are head and shoulders above Morrowind Escapes, an intriguing plot that will not let you go until the very end of the game, new options for armor and weapons, and of course, an atmosphere of adventure that is so close to us! No way to play, no way!

Well, I think that’s all for today, play only what you really like!

PS: Recently, I have often received requests to install the Morrowind 2011 mod, so I would like to know if a separate post is needed with a detailed description of the installation of this mod?
