1. INFORMATION ON THE MOD
************************************************************************
Adds play value after the end of the Shivering Isles main quest. Go defend the
villages and locations from enemy attack more frequently. More entertainers. Cheese for
everybody!

In the unmodded game, you only have a 50% chance of being able to go defend a village
each time you ask Haskill about it. With this mod, you have a 95% chance of being able to
go defend a village each time you ask. And if you happen to ask and there is no village to
defend at that moment, you can ask again and have the chance recalculated.

Defending your realm is something you can do on an ongoing basis. It makes you
feel like being a daedric prince actually involves some duties and responsibilities and like
your job is important. It gives you the chance to travel, offers exciting battles, lets you
loot the corpses of the enemies, and lets you receive tribute money from the grateful
villagers.

This mod also makes the entertainment in your palace better. Instead of there
just being one dancer, there are four of them and they dance all at once. Two of them can
also juggle. Much more spectacular than just one dancer.

You can also celebrate and have cheese for everyone at the palace. They really
like that (unless they don't, in which case it is not much of a celebration.) Everyone
stops what they are doing and gathers to eat the cheese, socialize, and relax. You can
talk to Haskill to have this happen over and over. (Designed to prevent savegame bloat.)
If you want people to get back to business and stop eating cheese, talk to Haskill about
Defending the realm or entertainment. But you will have to personally clean up any
leftover cheese yourself because there does not appear to be a janitor on the staff of your
palace.

This mod is designed to work if you activate it before you beat the Shivering Isles
main quest, or after you beat it.
