Added journals to the maze to indicate where all eight Dragon Priest masks should be placed.

Collecting Dragon Priest Masks is probably my favorite unmarked challenge in the game. But no matter how you play your character, a powerful hero slaying the remnants of the Dragon Cult, a power-hungry mage looking to assemble the most powerful magical relic in Skyrim... it's hard to avoid the fact that, for the most part, your character's only way to find them is by randomly stumbling upon them while exploring Skyrim, or by having the benefit of omniscience via Google-fu.
Well, not anymore. Now, while exploring the ruins of the Labyrinth, you'll travel through a journal inside the Temple of Bromnanar. This magazine once belonged to the Briton explorers who came to Skyrim seeking the ancient power of the Dragon Worship High Priests, but were thwarted by their secrecy and obsession with power. He recorded the most promising clues at the final resting place of Skyrim's ancient overlords, and speculated that if the masks weren't buried in the ancient capital, then they must have been buried alongside the man who bore him in life - before meeting his own untimely end in the hands of those he hired to protect him.
This mod is inspired by whickus' Diary of the Dragon Priest Mask. Since his permission ruled out the possibility of a direct conversion, I rewrote the diary and placed it in world space itself.
Future plans/wish list
Added quest markers to each priest's graveyard. This is something I've tried and am quick to remind myself of how much I despise creation kits and why I don't try modding more often.
Expands available lore about priests and Cult of the Dragon. I have a few ideas, thankfully all of them can be implemented in xEdit

Bromjunaar Journal
Collecting the Dragon Priest masks is probably my favourite unmarked challenge in the game. But no matter how you're roleplaying your character: a mighty hero out to destroy the remnants of the Dragon Cult, a power-thirsty mage looking to assemble the most powerful magical relics in Skyrim... it's hard to get around the fact that most of the time, the only way your character can find them is by either stumbling across them at random as they explore Skyrim, or by having the benefit of omniscience as a result of your Google-fu.
Well, not anymore. Now, while exploring the ruins of Labyrinthian, you'll stuble across a journal within the temple at Bromjunaar. This journal once belonged to a Breton explorer who came to Skyrim in search of the ancient power of the High Priests of the Dragon Cult, but was foiled by their secrecy and obsession with power. He recorded the most promising leads on the final resting places of Skyrim ancient overlords, surmising that if the masks weren't buried in the ancient capital then they must be interred with the men who bore them in life -- before meeting his own untimely end at the hands of the very men he'd hired to protect him.
This mod was inspired by Dragon Priest Mask Journal by whickus. As his permissions preclude the possibility of a straight conversion, I've rewritten the journal and placed it in the worldspace myself.
Future Plans/Wish List
Add quest markers to each priest's burial site. This is something I've already attempted, very quickly reminding myself how much I despise the Creation Kit and why I don't try modding more often.
Expand on the lore available regarding the priests and the Dragon Cult. I have several ideas for this, all of them thankfully achievable in xEdit.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- 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.
