A post with my initial impressions of the Tuxborn modpack for Skyrim.

In Which Nona Has a Long and Bumpy Start
In which the young Imperial Nona is left for dead at Steamcrag Camp; eludes a treacherous Khajiit by way of hostile giant; visits Kynesgrove and Windhelm; travels to Whiterun, and helps several of the locals there; travels to Riverwood and Helgen, and meets a former arena fighter named Gorr; witnesses Alduin's attack on Helgen, and reports it to Whiterun's Jarl; and is engaged by Balgruuf and Farengar to retrieve the Dragonstone from Bleak Falls Barrow.
