SSE Grand Saath Hotel

Typically, this site is so cold you wonder if anyone would have survived the excavation of Saarthal, considered the largest ancient Atmoran colony and where the infamous Tight of Tears divided people. This mod aims to improve this shortcoming by turning Saltal into a safe haven

This non-profit mod is free to download and use.

This mod adds more content to the spartan, uncomfortable archaeological digs of Saarthal, a city that was once the capital of Norse civilization but for a time was buried under meters of ice and snow and forgotten.

I have read and seen how archaeological sites are set up to ensure the survival of any specimens/artifacts obtained so that they can ultimately be transported safely to institutions for further study and preservation, and to ensure their well-being. Whether in the scorching deserts or the frigid teeth of the far north, scientists and laborers must spend days or even months at a time unearthing any important discovery in very hostile environments.

But looking at Saarthal, would anyone want to work there without any protection? Or from hostile invaders interested in looting the site and killing anyone who stands in their way? And if you're in trouble, frozen to death, bleeding to death, chased by an angry snowcat, and out in the wasteland without food, water, and much-needed potions, where do you go?

If you prefer playing with immersive mods, you should solve the above problems by turning Saarthal into a safe haven behind which you can warm up, get some decent rest, cook, trade with resident guardian hunters (who can also protect you from determined assassins), and even find a new canine companion.

Feature list

Complimentary linens are provided for you and your entourage when staying overnight on site

The Forge Workstation and Alchemy Laboratory in the Main Overseer's Hut

Cooking in the guard's shelter

Fire for those using Frostfall and other similar immersive mods

You can trade with any of the resident veterans hired to protect the excavation site; they often have to hunt and sell.

The recruitable dog is called Catbane; stats are slightly better than Alert.

The grounds are protected by walls and gates, and guarded by the aforementioned hunters (note that these are high-level NPCs with privileges, unlike vanilla hunters)

As always, the mod has been checked and cleaned using SSEedit. Should be compatible with most mods, except some that may modify Saarthal's outer space.

Installation - Beforehand, make a big save inside any interior (except Saarthal's dungeon) and then install the mod using any Mod Manager.

Uninstall - Make a hard save inside any interior (except Saarthal's Dungeon), then deactivate and uninstall this mod.

This mod adds more content to the otherwise spartan and uncomfortable archaeological excavation site of Saarthal, once the first capital of Nord civilization but for a time buried and forgotten under meters of ice and snow.

I've read and seen how an archaeological site is set up, both to ensure the survival of any obtained specimens/artifacts so that they eventually be transported safely to an institution for further study and preservation, as well as the well-being of the scientists and laborers who have to spend days or even months at a time trying to unearth any important finds in very hostile environments, whether in the scorching desert or teeth-chattering cold of the far north.

However, looking at Saarthal, would anyone want to work there without any sort of protection, be it from the raging ice and snow? Or from hostile intruders who are interested in pillaging the site and killing anyone who stands in their way? And if you're in a bind, f …
