    It's my belief that Morthal exists because the housing prices got so bad in Solitude that the poor were basically forced out into the swamp.

      @@geemcspankinson I guess that’s one solution, albeit a pretty shitty sounding one. I can’t remember which country but I believe it was in South America, anyways they legalized drugs, and made them eligible for a tax. The local Government then takes all that money that would normally be used to incarcerate druggies, plus the monetary gain from the tax on legal drugs and puts the funds directly into drug treatment, and rehabilitation programs. That to me seems like maybe the best solution, but trusting our Government here in the US to spend funds appropriately isn’t something I’m very confident in tbh. Maybe these “safe injection sites” are the best solution we’re going to get for the immediate future. Until something better comes along.

The two towns are so similarly bland that I have to check the map to remind myself which one I'm in.

    Hey, Fallion curing your vampirism isn't the ONLY reason to go there... he also sells black soul gems.
