About this blog

Hello Dear Readers!

 

In this blog i wish to post information about my progress and plans  with my mod named:  Slavers Of Skyrim. Currently WIP, and undergoing remake.

 

Becuse the mod planned very complex with lots of future, i think better to explain evrything in this way. Like what this mod do, how to use it, ect.

 

I estiamte work in this mod best case end in th end of year 2024. ( this is the best possible case and even i consider very optimistic from my part )

 

To be clear:

i aginst the slavery in real life, and aginst this kind of activity that my mod contains. in sort: Dont do this in real life, its not okay.
