They let me in the mages guild library for free, so I picked up every single"free" book off the library shelf, no matter how common or valuable, then walked 10 feet over to a guy who watched me pick up those 200 books, and sold his dumb ass every last one… Profit? Yes. For me at least. Damn good thing I don’t have to worry about the in-game economy, though.
I have enough “Skyrim skill” now that I can pick a Master level lock with a couple of picks.
But now I just install the mod for the Unlock spell.
Along with the other 100+ mods required to make the game worth playing :P
