@@Dancerlayla-z6gJust turned 62 last month. Even though I think I'm still 17 and it's 1979 😁 I started with Morrowind while I was still in the movin business. Had a damn desktop computer and monitor in the bunk of my truck, lol. Then Oblivion came out, and I played the hell outta that, then I pre-ordered Skyrim. Here it is over a decade now, and I'm still a Dark Elf. Just broke down and got a new Xbox X almost a week ago and slapped the anniversary edition on it. Now I just gotta see if I can squeeze anything from Nexus in there. I'm not the *swiftest* when it comes to mods, but I installed a few here and there. My son in law says you can indeed make it happen, but I've not seen anything yet that makes me agree with that statement 😎
The South has the best living besides whiterun. Way warmer than up north, falkreath and riften have lots of hidey-holes and places to build a house undisturbed. Goldenglow Estate is nice too, but you can't upgrade it or change anything.
@@sophiemendez5567 I’m a fan of Golden Hills Plantation because they’ll make me coin and resources while I’m out lollygaggin. Plus, I love hunting in the plains of Whiterun. Helps with my archery and smithing. I kinda made Breezehome my central hub for alchemy and smithing stuff. I can tolerate that over encumbered walk way more. I tend to forget my horse.😅
One detail I love is that once you convince Balgruf to send guards to Riverwood, Irileth will actually walk down to the barracks and tell some guards to head to Riverwood, just like how she does to later send some guards to the western watchtower. You can follow the guards as they actually walk all the way to Riverwood to set up camp. It's something most people never see because you're immediately told to speak to Farengar in the next room, but it's nice that the world still has real interactions even when you aren't looking.
yeah, it goes from the pile of wood to a couple sleeping bags and a fire ring after they arrive Skyrim has a ton of little things that a lot of people will never see.
The secret that i was always wondering about was the fact that how Lucan had the claw in the first place? one hypothesis that i have is maybe Lucan used to wonder into bleak falls barrow in the past to find items for his shop to sell, evidence that i have are not solid but here they are: 1. the innkeeper in Ivarstead is known to practice the same graverobbing methods (collecting items from the ruins and selling them) and when you take his quest to kill the ''ghost'' aka Wyndelius Gatharian he will give you the claw to open the inner sanctum 2. often you will find the relating claw of a barrow inside the barrow itself this MIGHT imply that the claws are placed inside the tomb in the first place unless someone steals it 3. Lucan was against his sister venturing into the barrow possibly because he already been there and knows what dangers are within the barrow
All of these sound pretty solid imo, only thing missing is Lucan having adventurer gear stashed in his room (though maybe his own inventory could suffice).
These are really good theories, one more could be the same however it wasn’t him who did it but perhaps his father or grandfather and the claw got passed down. But I like yours better.
There are 2 named skeletons near Anise’s cabin. Edit to add: The first is under the fallen tree as you are approaching the cabin from Riverwood (Lumi), and the second is on the rocks to the north of the cabin.
I have seen two thieves in Riverwood. One was running around inside the Riverwood Trader, while Lucan and Camilla did their normal business. The other was outside, and got chased and killed by the guards.
I play mostly on Survival mode, so when Delphine is at Dragonreach it’s a problem for sleep. You can take the road to Helgen and kill the 2 bandits that have that lookout above the road. There are sleeping bags there.
@@AurbisYT one thing that I do since I am on PC and don’t consider a cheat is wear a backpack that has a sleeping bag, in console commands use: player.placeatme c34af 1 This gives you a sleeping bag, after using it, I disable it. They don’t give you any other way of using that sleeping bag.
Go to the house of the person you escaped Helgen with - you can use the beds there AND help yourself to anything in the house without it counting as stolen.
I had already adopted two children by the time I overheard conversations with Braith and and her parents. Next play through, her parents will have a horrible accident so I can adopt her. Poor girl, no wonder she acts like she does.
Played this game since it was released and just now learning about some of these things. insane. the attention to detail in skyrim is something you rarely see anymore :'(
I was picking locks in Riverwood one night and it kept spawning thieves, I think I had three or four-- literally, pick a lock to get into the building, come back out, and that entering/leaving seemed to be triggering it.
In relation to the Inn and Delphine, after she gives you the horn of Jorgen Windcaller, if you return to Ustengrav before returning it to the Graybeards and place it back on the pedestal, you'll get a free dragonsoul.
In all these years of seeing vids with tag lines stating they're showing you hidden secrets about a place or similar claims....THIS is the 1st to actually have more than one detail I was entirely unaware of!!! EXCELLENT!!!
I knew about the thief showing up at night in Riverwood, which is one of many reasons why I don’t join the thieves guild anymore. I actually had a thief show up inside the Riverwood Trader, and he ran out through the upstairs door, with Lucan chasing him…where he was finally killed by Lucan and the guards😅…the thief always shows up in Riften at night also…not sure about other towns🤔
I encounter the two thieves just recently! I’m brand new to the game. I was doing the quest with the blades and about to leave river wood with dephine when they all showed up.
Finally! A new Elder Scrolls-focused channel, all about theories and game facts. I’m subscribing the moment I saw the video pop up in my recommended. I’ll be even happier if you start delving into the lore!
I have tons of plans for the channel, there was a gap between uploads because I’m getting my first PC next month. So I thought I would wait to make content to make the highest quality possible. But I have so many ideas that I thought I may as well start creating and waste no time. Lore topic videos are 100% coming for both Skyrim and a little bit of Elder Scrolls Online. But that will be around 1 video a month for ESO because they will be extremely long to get footage for :)
@@AurbisYT Oooo, congrats on your first PC! Start creating and nail ideas down right away, is what you’d say, and once you get everything you need, remake or update them! Spectacular, then, I can help with the lore and theories, if you’d like! I’ve got a decade of experience in the RP community for ESO, been a Loremaster once or twice.
That’s perfect man, I have been craving to play some ESO. I used to play daily but it’s been about 2 months. I can’t wait to start all over again with the Arcanist class.
I only go to Riverwood to see Camilla and gawk and her great video game figure while she stirs the pot. Lucan doesn't seem to mind, all he talks about is that golden claw.
Had a midded playthrough that made dragons much harder, adopted Dorthy because both her folks were torched alive in front of her. I felt guilty lol. "My bad, I didn't know they weren't essential kiddo....."
@AurbisYT honestly that run was CURSED. Greybeards were furious at me and I had no idea why. Then upon fast travel, Parthurnax's lifeless carcass fell from the sky, onto the head of my horse, burned, and gave me a dragon soul. Never even fought him. Just stuff like that lol
Ermm I’m not quite sure what the term refresh is in modding. However the mod I used for Riverwood is called Kato’s Riverwood. I will be doing a video on my mod list after I have finished the current video I’m working on :)
Alvor in Riverwood and Adrienne? in whiterun both have a smithing tutorial. So if you join the stormcloaks and meet alvor, he should have the tutorial and finishing it allows you to take his iron and steel ingots by his forge which otherwise would be marked stolen.
The first one I did not know, that harlot never kicks the bucket in my games 😂 The last time Alvor and Sigrid got in the crossfire during a battle with a dragon, little Dorthe sent thugs after me 😳 I get that "I know what you did" letter from either Faendal or Sven, depending on which one got in the way of an arrow, never from Camilla. Enjoyed the video 👍🏼
The first unguided area of an Elder Scrolls game (Privateer's Hold, Seyda Neen, Vilverin, Riverwood) are all relatively unremarkable (apart from being mini tech demos of any "groundbreaking" features of the game) yet profoundly iconic and cozy- Even with half being hostile dungeons.
Wihlem in ivarstead has a business relationship with the guy who runs the pawned prawn. There's a letter on the pawned prawn's table. The theory is that wilhem has been raiding the burrow in invarstead, which is why he had the Sapphire dragon claw. Lucan probably has similar contacts that go into places to look for things to sell. And clearing the burrow in ivarstead means Wilhelm can go in later after every thing is dead and loot the place.
Pretty sure the feeling is mutual for Lucan. Despite his dialog for her death, his relationship rank with Camilla appears to be low. Kind of like Lemkil and his daughters in Rorikstead. I don't remember how to check for sure. He just didn't react to a mod that uses relationship rank.
Well oddly this explains why I walked up to the blacksmith to find a corpse of a thief after coming up from the Ratway and I'm 45 hours into this play through without even going to Bleak Falls Barrow, and I only did the thieves guild up to where you can sell to the fence Tonila, so I believe it's only the Guild quest that triggers the thieves. It was mid day when I looted a surprising amount of gold and flawless gems. Man, I love this game.
Yeah I’ve actually seen that before, also I think if you are level 18 and Higher then there is a section with an adventures body hidden up on a rock. I think you can only reach him with TSL or free cam.
I’m pretty sure if you marry Camilla after doing the Faendal or Sven quest, she cheats on you because they can show up at your house with her randomly, so I tend to just let Camilla have Sven or Faendal 🤣
1 - Yeah, I knew about this. 2 - Yeah, I knew about this, too. 3 - Yeah, and this one is kinda neat. 4 - Okay... I did not know about this one. 5 - Yeah, I know about this, as well.
I might have encountered the two thieves in riverwood, I assumed it was part of a mod and I didnt see them outside the trader, one was already dead and the guards were fighting the other when I got there, and there was no unique dialogue from anyone that I can remember
Yeah, off camera when I was trying to get footage I went inside Alvors house and came back outside and the thief was there. I then went back inside the house and when I exited again there was 2. I did this one more time and then there were 3. So I think that was a glitch of the random encounter respawning. The 2 thieves one on the wiki I think happens inside the shop, because it says Lucan thanks you. :)
@@AurbisYT its possible whoever put it on the wiki was just confused, Lucan does often thank you for bringing the claw back as random lines when youre nearby. Also keep up the great work, you deserve way more subscribers for these high quality videos
I remember encountering the Inn is closed scenario but I guess at the time I didn't figure out it was a kind of easer egg. I probably didn't put together that Delphine was in another place or I didn't even know it was her.
You can follow Delphine back to Riverwood after you talk to her in Dragon's Reach. You can also follow the guardian of the Whitereach Jarl when she goes to talk to the troops - I highly recommend hearing each speech at least once, as it's hilarious. "Hey, you three, remember how you keep asking to get assigned to Riverwood? Well, good news!" "We're going to die, aren't we?" And then you can follow the guards walking back to Riverwood.
@@AurbisYT I'm told you can also follow Eleween and the General out of Helgen as they make their way back towards Solitude, but I think you have to work hard to catch up with them if you don't use console commands.
@@AurbisYT I'm not sure. I think you have to catch up to them on one of the roads between Helgen and Solitude. I've only seen videos. You could probably teleport yourself to the character with console commands to find out.
Always gets himself killed in my games. The guy boasts about "I can make you a Warhammer that would crush a giant's head" then proceeds to fight a dragon with an iron 🗡️ dagger.🇬🇧👍
@@AurbisYT Me also these days, but I kind of miss old Alvor running headlong towards a dragon or a bunch of Nightlord Vampires - with his trusty dagger! 😆
Riverwood town drunk Embri loves/tries to flirt with Sigrid when she walks by him at some point during the day. Sigrid will reject him and say that she's spoken for.
Ahhh yeah I’ve heard that aha, I was going to mention how if you give Embry a drink then all the items in the Sleeping Giant become free even though he doesn’t own it, just rents a room I believe. But I feel like most people probably know about that :)
@@AurbisYT you should check out the Riverwood pizza mod and Sheeva's skooma shop mod...the pizza mod adds a player-friendly oven near the far end of town by the inn and a shop across from it. The skooma shop mod adds a player-friendly shop just past the oven '' kitty ''corner from it out near the woods...a male khajiit runs the pizza shop, and female khajiit runs the skooma shop...you can find all kinds of cool stuff in there.. the only drawback about the male khajiit is that you can't buy from him while he's cooking.. so if he's cooking you just got to wait until he's away from the oven.. he doesn't go anywhere else but to the oven and back to the shop... The female khajiit doesn't leave her shop. But he's got a huge variety of different kinds of pizza that give you all kinds of buffs. These can be found in the creations menu and they are absolutely free and do not conflict with any other mods, unless you have something that directly places something in those locations. The skooma shop, is where you can buy raw Moon sugar, and you can buy a variety of different types of skooma.. if you add another mod called "drug crafting", you can make all the different types of skooma and you can craft sleeping tree sap as long as you have the necessary ingredients.
I've been in every single house in building in Riverwood, even ones that have added into the game from Mods...sheevas skooma shop/riverwood pizza(there's nothing funnier and more enjoyable then a khajiit in a chef's hat and tunic making pizza for the citizens of Riverwood and all of Skyrim.)
@@AurbisYT my friend has a PS5, I don't have my own system or computer. But I found it as a PS5 mod, I guess if you get around to playing just search for "Skyrim Pizza" and "Skooma Shop" on whichever platform that you prefer to play Skyrim on. So what I'm saying is I don't know if it's on PC or Xbox. But it is in the "creations" menu.
I need to play Starfield again, I didn’t play much of it because I wanted to wait for my PC. I wonder how many Skyrim players regularly play Starfield.
That last one is hilarious, with 23 to adopt in the entire game, killing the parents of one specific kid who's parents are still alive and are aparently good people is creepy as hell.
After giving the claw back, lucan valerious still isn't kill able. His health just regenerate s. I'm trying to kill him so I can marry his sister and let her run the shop.
I have had the 2 thieves appear, killed one on my own and the 2nd one killed along side a guard but this did not trigger any related dialogue with Lucan for some reason
It's these sorts of videos that make me realise that I'll still be playing Skyrim in my 80s.
Yeah I can imagine myself doing that too, thank you for watching.
Im still playing at 62. Looking forward to TESVI

That stretch between Whiterun and Falkreath has always felt like home but no place more than Riverwood.
I agree
My headcanon would be that the dragonborn rebuilds helgen and makes the whole area between Lakeview, the meadary, Riverwood, and helgen his home.

There is another secret dialog that Lucan has, when returning the claw.
I have seen two thieves in Riverwood. One was running around inside the Riverwood Trader, while Lucan and Camilla did their normal business. The other was outside, and got chased and killed by the guards.
Hmm that’s interesting, I’ve never managed to see a thief inside the Riverwood Trader.
Also came across a theif in the riverwood trader. But there wasn't one outside at all
I've had the two thieves appear
Same here even though it only happened once out of like 10 playthroughs. I am actually convinced it was one of the many mods Ive had
I'm on xbox x, and have no mods, so it's not that. Only had it happen once.
I play mostly on Survival mode, so when Delphine is at Dragonreach it’s a problem for sleep. You can take the road to Helgen and kill the 2 bandits that have that lookout above the road. There are sleeping bags there.

@@AurbisYT I'm told you can also follow Eleween and the General out of Helgen as they make their way back towards Solitude, but I think you have to work hard to catch up with them if you don't use console commands.
Which gate do they come out off?
@@AurbisYT I'm not sure. I think you have to catch up to them on one of the roads between Helgen and Solitude. I've only seen videos. You could probably teleport yourself to the character with console commands to find out.
Nvm Alvor being useful, I don't think I could bring myself to kill him, even if he wasn't a merchant..
Yeah i really didn’t want to do it myself aha
Always gets himself killed in my games.
The guy boasts about "I can make you a Warhammer that would crush a giant's head" then proceeds to fight a dragon with an iron 🗡️ dagger.🇬🇧👍
Aha true, usually when I play I use a mod to prevent merchants from dying.
@@AurbisYT Me also these days, but I kind of miss old Alvor running headlong towards a dragon or a bunch of Nightlord Vampires - with his trusty dagger! 😆
Wait really? Over the 11 years I've played I don't think he's ever died for me
Riverwood town drunk Embri loves/tries to flirt with Sigrid when she walks by him at some point during the day. Sigrid will reject him and say that she's spoken for.
Ahhh yeah I’ve heard that aha, I was going to mention how if you give Embry a drink then all the items in the Sleeping Giant become free even though he doesn’t own it, just rents a room I believe. But I feel like most people probably know about that :)
@@AurbisYT I had no clue and I always gave Embry a drink, not realizing the things in the inn were now free.
Yeah you're right most players might just go to whiterun first, but then again Riverwood has the only alchemy table in that part of the region.
That is certainly true :)
@@AurbisYT you should check out the Riverwood pizza mod and Sheeva's skooma shop mod...the pizza mod adds a player-friendly oven near the far end of town by the inn and a shop across from it.
The skooma shop mod adds a player-friendly shop just past the oven '' kitty ''corner from it out near the woods...a male khajiit runs the pizza shop, and female khajiit runs the skooma shop...you can find all kinds of cool stuff in there.. the only drawback about the male khajiit is that you can't buy from him while he's cooking.. so if he's cooking you just got to wait until he's away from the oven.. he doesn't go anywhere else but to the oven and back to the shop... The female khajiit doesn't leave her shop. But he's got a huge variety of different kinds of pizza that give you all kinds of buffs. These can be found in the creations menu and they are absolutely free and do not conflict with any other mods, unless you have something that directly places something in those locations. The skooma shop, is where you can buy raw Moon sugar, and you can buy a variety of different types of skooma.. if you add another mod called "drug crafting", you can make all the different types of skooma and you can craft sleeping tree sap as long as you have the necessary ingredients.
There is an alchemy table in a shack not far from Riverwood.
I don’t have a single run of Skyrim, where the dog in Riverwood doesn’t kill himself
How does he kill himself? Dogs in Skyrim annoy me with their incessant barking, and I now make it a point to always kill him. But I do not have to?
@ they spawn in the air and fall when you load in, it’s a glitch
@@Spartan-bl4pq Thanks for replying 🙂
Great vid. I wonder how you obtain the claw after the thieves take it
Thank you! I’ve never actually seen them take it. They always end up getting caught by the Whiterun guard.
Ahh I see really interesting. Ive spent so much time in that town and have never seen it.
Yeah even after all these years I’m still learning new things :)
I've been in every single house in building in Riverwood, even ones that have added into the game from Mods...sheevas skooma shop/riverwood pizza(there's nothing funnier and more enjoyable then a khajiit in a chef's hat and tunic making pizza for the citizens of Riverwood and all of Skyrim.)
Is that a mod for PC only or is it on Xbox too?
@@AurbisYT my friend has a PS5, I don't have my own system or computer. But I found it as a PS5 mod, I guess if you get around to playing just search for "Skyrim Pizza" and "Skooma Shop" on whichever platform that you prefer to play Skyrim on. So what I'm saying is I don't know if it's on PC or Xbox. But it is in the "creations" menu.
I'm confused as to why Lucan gave awkward laugh about the claw size is being smaller than he remembers, does it imply something?
Potentially, maybe he is disappointed.
Nolvus v6 version of Riverwood is incredible
I think I have actually seen some gameplay of Nolvus. Is that the extremely highly mod pack?
imagine being adopted by your own parents murderer without even knowing... wild...
I don’t think I could even do that on a evil character playthrough tbh
I wonder if there will be videos like this about the most beloved locations in Starfield in 2034?
I need to play Starfield again, I didn’t play much of it because I wanted to wait for my PC. I wonder how many Skyrim players regularly play Starfield.
What mods are you running?
There is a video that is recent on my channel with all the mods I used :)
Great content
Thank you, I really appreciate it
That last one is hilarious, with 23 to adopt in the entire game, killing the parents of one specific kid who's parents are still alive and are aparently good people is creepy as hell.
Yeah I know right, especially since she will be living with you calling you papa without knowing you unalived her actual one is messed up
Не знал, что Дельфина бегала в драконий предел
Kill Faendal? Fuck you mean, kill Faendal? If ya do that, who's gonna say Riverwood's agreeable enough, I suppose...for a Nord village 😎
Faendal is a real one for sure
I wonder how you achieved that appearance of the game ? Some sort of mod ?
Yeah and some monitor settings. I’ll be making a video on my mod list soon for PlayStation before I switch to PC.
@@AurbisYT I would be interested in mods for PC which improves Skyrim appearace
Yeah, when I get my PC set up and get the mods I want then I may do a video on that too :)
5:57 Таким образом можно много кого из детей Скайрима усыновить, перед этим сделав их сиротами😂. Не только Дорти
Yeah, I just thought I would mention Dorthe because I feel like not many people would unalive Alvor and Sigrid because Alvor is useful.
@@AurbisYT однажды я случайно убил Алвора и его жену
Interesting! Subscribed.
Thank you for watching :)
Steal a couple books from The Arcanaeum...
Give it a few game days and see what happens. ; )
What would happen if you kill Lucen and marry Carmilla ? Who would run the Riverwood trader ?
Hmm I have no clue 🤔
After giving the claw back, lucan valerious still isn't kill able. His health just regenerate s. I'm trying to kill him so I can marry his sister and let her run the shop.
Do you have any mods?
Never knew about those thieves but those it happen on a PC or on a PS4
It happens on both Console and PC :)
I wish I could buy a house in riverwood
Yeah, sometimes I just use Faendal’s house as my own or download a house mod for riverwood. Some are really nice.
There is a free mod in Creation Club that puts a home for you in Riverwood.
All this detail, i ve encounter. I guess i ve too much skyrim playtime.
There are plenty of children to adopt. 4 are living on the streets.
Yeah I feel like those children are probably the most popular ones to adopt as they have no homes.
@@AurbisYT sofie is always the first i adopt sleeping on the streets off windhelm in the cold and no1 there will give her a home so sad
@@Genlog-ox7fo honestly I never adopt her but now you have made me want too.
Lucia and Sofie always ❤
What thief has a iron claw? TF
What do you mean? Did i accidentally say iron claw instead of golden?
Mate! You just murdered my wife
I’m terribly sorry, I reloaded the save don’t worry :)
I only knew 2
Well I’m glad you learnt something new, thank you for watching.
@@AurbisYT welcome did know camlliea can take over trader or die or you can murder the love interested
I have had the 2 thieves appear, killed one on my own and the 2nd one killed along side a guard but this did not trigger any related dialogue with Lucan for some reason
I feel like it may be a rumour at this point because it says it on the wiki but I haven’t seen or heard anyone encounter it
@@AurbisYT that makes sense as no one I know has had any unique dialogue triggered by killing the thieves
