About this mod Machine translation
Improves the otherwise bland Ahzidal armor into something more valuable.
Reasons for improvement
The essence of the Azdar legend is found here:
Born in the city of Saarthal during the late Merethic era, he was quickly recognized for his magic and enchantment. As he grew, his talent quickly surpassed that of his coach and everyone living in Saltal. Eventually, finding that he could no longer progress in his own way, he left home in search of an elf teacher who could impart more knowledge. ..He sought out all there was to know about magic, learning more than ever before. He learned the seven properties of metals from the Dwemer and ancient runes, and from the dawn magic of the Ayleids. He learned everything the Snow Elves, Chimers, and Altmers knew. ..He learned that Ysgramor had raised an army and was fighting the elves. He offers his services to them and equips them with the most powerful charms. The elves were powerless against Ysgramor and his men, for they were as shabby as Ahzidal's charming weapons and armor.
But once you finally get your hands on his rare masterpiece, his complete set, you may be like me and quickly ask yourself, what kind of half-baked magician is this Azdal guy who wouldn't bother with placing a double enchantment on his magnum opus? Why wouldn't armor built specifically for Ysgramor provoke an attack from a stout Nordic invasion force? And the biggest elephant in the room, why can't you wear the whole outfit? Isn't it a joke that ignores the fact that Azdar was the most knowledgeable of all the ancient Norsemen?

Justification for Improvement
The fine points of Ahzidal's Lore found here:
He was born in the city of Saarthal late in the Merethic Era and his aptitude for magic and enchanting was quickly recognized. As he grew, his talent quickly surpassed that of his instructors and of every person living in Saarthal. Eventually, finding he could progress no more among his own kind, he left his home and sought out Elven teachers who could impart more knowledge....he sought out all knowledge of enchanting, learning more than anyone ever had. He learned of the seven natures of metal from the Dwemer and ancient runes and dawn magic from the Ayleids. He learned all that the Snow Elves, Chimer and Altmer knew....he learned that Ysgramor had assembled an army and was marching to battle the Elves. He offered them his services and outfitted them with his strongest enchantments. The Elves were no match for Ysgramor and his men, bedecked as they were with Ahzidal's enchanted weapons and armor.
And yet once you finally get your hands on his prized masterpiece, his complete set, you may be like me, and quickly asking yourself just what kind of half baked enchanter this Ahzidal guy was, that he couldn't be bothered with placing dual enchantments on his magnum opus? Why an armor set dedicated towards Ysgramor's cause its enchantments isn't tailored towards a rugged Nordic invasion force. And the biggest elephant in the room, why you couldn't wear the complete set-- Ahzidal, being the most knowledgeable of all ancient Nords, couldn't be that much of a joke to have overlooked this fact can he?

- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
