I'd forgotten about the butterfly door! A few precious moments of awesome that just totally set you up for SI. The night sky in SI is lovely - In fact, I think the sky in TES IV looked better than TES V's.

It's possible I wear rose-tinted specs when remembering Oblivion at times. You're right about the aurora, it's very pretty. I can't remember gold and green sparks in SI! I'll need to watch a video to jog my memory I think.

I'm looking at vids now to see if I can spot them :D What character are you rolling, may I ask? My biggest problem with Shivering Isles from an rp perspective came with the Baiting the Trap quest. I struggled to justify either choices - drive the adventurers insane or let them get killed. How are you finding that this time round?

Impossible (or very hard) to be an atheist in Tamriel, too many spirits want your soul :D I guess life with Uncle Sheo wouldn't boring, so there's that at least. Never a dull moment! Although didn't he ban the growing of beards and enforces that pretty strictly? Like, when he says he'll pluck out your eyes or skip rope with your entrails I get the feeling one of these days he actually will. Maybe I'd become a Heretic or Zealot and worship Arden-Sul.
That reminds me: Have you gotten as far as playing the Ritual of Mania quests with the Greenmote? I'm curious as to whether that little section is as clever as I remember in establishing a dependency to heighten the tension. At least I think it was that quest...

I would probably fit in a little too well in the Shivering Isles, unfortunately. Probably end up being friends with Cutter.
I have! The one where you’re dependent on Felldew to find the Chalice? Yes. That one is fun. The tension def increases, since you’re rushing around not to find the Chalice, but also a damn glowing elytra so you can get more felldew.
