Here are my screenshots for the playthrough for the Redguard Kendeshel! I cannot paginate these, so apologies for the length of this album list.
Several of these screenshot galleries contain significant spoilers for the mods I’m running in this playthrough: Legacy of the Dragonborn, Project AHO, Moon and Star, and Wyrmstooth.
And a couple of the galleries are explicitly password-locked. Use the following passwords for these specific galleries:

Mammoth Skull in Sadrith Kagran
Kinda wonder if this thing was already in the cavern when Sadrith Kegran was built? Or did town hunters leave it here after a kill? It was a somewhat startling thing to find as I explored.
Telvanni Bug Musk
Never heard of it! Can I use it to poison Shanath? No? Aw DAMN.
I Got MYSELF Nabbed?
Way to victim blame there, asshole! Since YOU WERE THE ONE WHO TOOK ME IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Shaglak's Backstory
I have some issues with Shaglak referring to Marisa as 'Ms. Verendas', given that I've never seen modern English courtesy titles like Mr. or Mrs. thrown around in Elder Scrolls dialogue anywhere. Still, some interesting questions here about why an Orc woman in Narzulbur might have abandoned her baby. Maybe his father wasn't the chief?
Okay So Maybe I Won't Kill You Later
This guy, this guy right here, is the ONLY person in all of Sadrith Kegran who ACTUALLY APOLOGIZED FOR ENSLAVING ME. And he's the one who captured me to begin with.
Awfully Damned Generous to the Slave HE Captured
Shaglak must be super hard-pressed for socialization in a town full of Dunmer, if he sobbed into his beer about kidnapping me and then heaped a bunch of coin and a bottle of fancy booze onto me just because I went drinking with him. And to be fair: I can buy him not fitting in well AT ALL in a town full of Dunmer. I do wonder why Marisa decided to actually adopt him to begin with.
This Is My Totally Innocent Face
Why gosh no! Why would I want to kill the person who enslaved me? Why would this ever possibly cross my mind? Also, this was the recipe Tamina told me to make, so get the fuck off my back and get me a better recipe, or make your own goddamn tea, 'sir'.
Not That I Actually CARE About Your Backstory, But...
Geez, guy, conversational whiplash much? Do you always change topics that fast?
You Seem Awfully Free With Your Money, Pal
Because yes I DID NOTICE HOW YOU DON'T PAY FOR LABOR AROUND HERE. What, nobody around here who ISN'T A SLAVE willing to help you find the ring?
Maybe Your Tea Recipe Just Sucks?
I wasn't gonna say, I mean, if you want to drink tea that contains BEES, you do you, but don't bitch at ME if it tastes horrible. You're just lucky I didn't chuck live bees into that flask, sir .
Sure, I'll Be Right Over
In a while, anyway. Have fun waiting by the stairs, asshole! I have things to do!
You Have Your Priorities Out of Whack, Pal
So your daughter shouldn't do the thing she's really frigging good at to make her coin? Because if you want my opinion on this, her being a hunter, feeding the town, and bringing in pelts for leather is a HELL OF A LOT BETTER THAN TAKING SLAVES. JUST A THOUGHT. Also, you're missing a word in your sentence there.
Again, Not That I Actually CARE About Your Backstory...
... because you're a doe-eyed lad who gives more of a fuck about his romance than he does about SLAVES GETTING TORTURED BY HIS TOWN, but okay, fine, just so you know, you're being a dick to your girlfriend. Quit it.
You Don't Think This is a Weird Thing to Be Asking a SLAVE?
But okay, sure, why not, let me have access to your magic so I can learn how to get the fuck out of here. Wait, did I say that out loud?
Vision of Fire 1
I cast the first test spell, and saw this. Ooh hey, Sadrith Kegran a smoking ruin. THAT LOOKS LIKE FUN!
Vision of Fire 2
More of Sadrith Kegran ON FIRE. EXCELLENT.
Magical Sparring
I saw Marisa and Erver doing this a couple of times as I passed through the town. It looked like they were magically sparring? I didn't get any other context for what they were doing, though.
I Vote For Future
Future. Future sounds good. Because yeah, let's get to the part where your little slaverytown gets to be a smoking ruin. I am FINE with that.
Fascinating History
Reaaaaaaaally. Tell me MORE about what can be done with this spell you're teaching me. No no no, I'm not taking notes for practical future purposes of acting against you and your entire town. I'm asking just out of pure scholarly curiosity, I swear!
The Spell Tome
Heh. Bit of a vague spell description, there. Helping you gather your thoughts, and then beat the hell out of whatever wave of Dwemer automatons is coming at you! That's more to the point, as I learned later.
Oh Well, I Tried
To be fair, I wouldn't want to give Shanath any potions either. So I can't exactly argue with Tamina about that.
Re-Armored and Armed
Since Legacy of the Dragonborn's Stash Supplies spell gave me direct access to my museum stash, I was able to make myself an entire new set of Ringmail Armor, and a couple of weapons as well. And not a single person in Sadrith Kegran thought it was the slightest bit weird that the new Redguard n'wah suddenly was walking around armed and armored.
Hold On, I Gotta Pretend to Look Interested
So if I help you figure out your problem, can I get you to rebel against your father and town consuls? You're the smith's son, got anything to get this amulet off?
So What Kind of Tools Do I Need?
And by tools, I mean, tools to actually stab everybody in this town with? Because seriously, I couldn't care less about the mushroom tree.
Greedy Alchemist is Greedy
Lady, I'm a slave . Do I look like somebody who has access to a thousand septims? (She asked, blithely disregarding how she's a slave who's also now mysteriously walking around in brand new armor.)
Fortunately For You, I Have a Solution To Your Problem
So howsabout you fork over a thousand septims to replace the money I just spent to get the dagger to solve this problem for you? No? Guess I'm keeping this dagger, then!
Remarkably Astute of You
Oh, I'm sorry, was I not making enough haste for you? EVER SO SORRY.
Great Hexagonal Library 1
Okay, gotta admit, this place was cool.
Great Hexagonal Library 2
Massive spinning orrery. This was neat .
Yen-Ylu Arrives
He's in the library, I GUESS? Not that I actually CARE. Why do you ask?
Not the Way I'd Put It
Are you implying serving Shanath would suit anybody ? Choose your next words with caution, pal.
As Long As You're Asking
I was forbidden by my so-called master to discuss my identity, so let's just say I'm the person that's going to wreak fiery vengeance on this place the minute I get this amulet off. Glad to meetcha!
Am I Supposed to Be Impressed By This Stance?
Because, speaking as someone who is currently ACTIVELY ENSLAVED, MAYBE YOU SHOULD ADVOCATE FOR ABOLITON A LITTLE HARDER, mister. I'M JUST SAYING.
I'm Sorry, I Don't Speak Dwemeris
Would you care to try that again in Tamrielic?
More Scenery
This was one of the areas I went through while doing the quest for the Tonal Organ, and okay, yes, this was stunningly gorgeous. Nice work on the level design, mod, sincerely!
Now What is THIS Doing Here
As a Tolkien fangirl, I do have to *sporfle* at this. But as an Elder Scrolls fangirl who has immersion as a high priority in her playthroughs, this was... a bit much.
This Door Was Cool, Though
This was one of the doors I had to go through while running the Tonal Organ quest, and I thought it was neat that the door was actually small . Echoes of Sotha Sil's miniaturization work with the Clockwork City, here.
More Scenery 2
This area of the mod reminded me of what I'd seen of BioShock being played in my house! Seriously beautiful. Maybe almost a little too futuristic-looking, but so pretty I was willing to disregard that.
The Tonal Organ is Tuned
Got any Tonal Pianos around here to tune next? How about a Tonal Xylophone? Maybe a Tonal Tuba?
OOH OOH I KNOW WHAT THAT IS
LOLOLOLOL, okay, this? This was a good callback. To one of my favorite parts of core Skyrim content, in fact. <3
Uh, Okay? Sure!
At the council! Sure! See you there, ghost! (Aheh.)
Insufferably Perky
You do that. I'm getting the hell out of this building before I try to push my amulet's limits and stab you right here, kid. And while you're giving your girlfriend her present, tell her parents AND YOURS that slavery sucks. Toodles!
I'm Sorry, Was I on a Timetable?
I was absolutely busy plotting your demise. Did you miss me?
Don't Have to Tell Me Twice
Sayonara, dickweed!
The One Thing You've Said I Agree With
I'll give Shanath that, anyway! I'd have offered to let him help me set this place on fire, except for the part where I wanted him first in the flames.
Wait, You Background Check Your Slaves?
What, have you never seen a half-Redguard, half-Altmer before? Am I that weird-looking to you?
Check Your Pronouns, Marisa
I guess I MUST be weird-looking to you if you CAN'T TELL I AM IN FACT FEMALE.
GEE THANKS EVER SO MUCH
Why in the name of the Nine and Tall Papa do you think I WANT to be a citizen of your slavemongering hellhole? And the only reason I'm not Shouting this place into rubble right this instant is because I don't want to accidentally kill your other slaves. WHO YOU SHOULD BE LETTING GO, BY THE WAY, IF YOU EXPECT ME NOT TO KILL YOU ALL.
How Ever So Kind and Thoughtful Of You
Get to know me better. Like you just invited me over for tea. FUCK YOU, LADY.
It Looks Cool, But...
Where do we get to the part where I use it to kill Shanath? Because if I can't do that, I'm going to be hard pressed not to try to make this thing explode and destroy this entire place.
I Repeat, It Looks Cool, But...
Where's the button that lets me drop Shanath into a fiery pit in Coldharbour? Or the Deadlands, getting flayed by dremora lords. That would also be acceptable.
Shrine to Trinimac
Once I finally got out again into Skyrim proper, I discovered a Shrine to Trinimac added in by Wintersun.
Altar to Mannimarco
And yeaaaaah HARD PASS on worshipping at this altar. Not interested in worshiping the Worm God, thanks.
Absorbing a Soul in Castle Dour
Wherein a whole bunch of Imperial soldiers, having just killed a dragon, get to see the Dragonborn taking its soul up close. This had to make for some lively gossip in the barracks that night!
Alchemy Machine
Last but not least, here's a look at an alchemy machine I discovered, and I did think this was cool, too. Given this mod's concepts of Dwemer tech, it seemed reasonable to me that they'd have actual alchemy machines.
