NOTE: This mod does NOT need the original and has everything from the original Forgotten Vale, just updated for the latest EK2 version, since that one is no longer being maintained.

Original Mod Description:
Previous Features:
• Relocated the Chantry of Auri-El holy site to the new county
• Added a Chantry of Auri-El special building
• Added Knight-Paladin Gelebor and Arch-Curate Vyrthur historical characters
• Added custom CoA for titles and the Hilyanar dynasty (very barebones)
• New county is reachable by travel through the mountain
Unsolicited Features added into the update:
• Slight buffs to Chantry-Auriel holy site character bonuses to suit their legendary heritage… and as extra incentive to reclaim them
• Empire Title ‘Falmereth’ is available and tied to the Forgotten Vale province on game start. Normal Empire-Title claiming requirements still apply, but this way you can either start right away on claiming/Integrating new territories for a reforged Falmereth to simulate ‘rebuilding’ the heritage and identity of the snow elves anew, or you can just eventually claim the Empire-level Skyrim title, which will rename itself to Falmereth, and slowly incorporate the Forgotten Vale back into the Skyrim empire title.
• Falmer culture Nativity Regions extended to the arctic terrain and mountains where High Rock meets the Sea of Ghosts, and plugged a few gaps where falmer presence in Karth was native.
• Falmer culture tradition includes mountainous terrain, since there is not a separate terrain type for arctic or frigid mountaintops (and because the total arctic terrain-type baronies is miniscule compared to mountains in the Falmer’s homeland)
TODOs or on the agenda:
• Create an immersive Hilyanar dynasty history & family tree that links Vyrthur and Gelebor as brothers
• port over some Ancient Falmer assets from EK2 Songs of the Return
• Make a smoother event for reclaiming or converging the Empire titles of Skyrim/Falmereth, currently complicated by the schism b/w West and East Skyrim
• Update to CK3 1.19, which will almost certainly come out very shortly after this is posted
