Halcyon house is an out of the way home at the far, South-Eastern corner of Cyrodiil. She sits just off the shore on Topal Bay. To find the home, start from Leyawiin and travel East along the coast line toward Black Marsh.

A small Stable stands just on shore to shelter your mount from the elements. Inside, you'll find a cozily decorated home including dining area, living room, Master bedroom and Study. In the cellar, cleverly protected from the ocean by reef rock, is a sumptuous display area for all your shiney bits and stolen goods as well as a small guest area for any companions who may share your home with you.

Please note that Borders will need to be disabled to reach the house. In the Default ini, find this line:
bBorderRegionsEnabled

Change the 1 to a 0 and save. Your borders will now be disabled.

= Requirements =

Extract the Halcyon House .esp, meshes and Textures to your Oblivion/Data directory then enable the Halcyon House esp. in the Oblivion Launcher.

*IF you are updating to the new version, simply allow the new files and folders to overwrite the old. Anything you have previously placed in the house will be safe as nothing has been removed or changed. Only added.

Remove the following files and folders from your Oblivion/Data directory:

Halcyon House.esp
Data/meshes/Red/Halcyon
Data/Textures/Red/Halcyon

-Castle Wolfspike V2, released 08/30/2010 and moved to a new location, pretty much swallows Halcyon House whole. **Centurion has kindly created a patch to make the house work with his castle. Simply install the patch and allow it to overwrite when asked and, as always, read the readme.

Yet another of my RELz threads that seems to have been eaten. XD Sigh.

Update: Centurion's recent release of http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34320 moved his castle to Topal Bay and, literally, on top of Halcyon House. :lmao: Ate it whole.

Centurion however has taken the time to graciously create a compatibility patch that allows Halcyon House and v2 of his castle to play nicely together. Now, it's not the same Halcyon House. It's now placed on an island further out on the bay but it is still gorgeous. At least I think so. :D

You can download the compatibility patch on either TESA or Nexus. It's under the Optional files. Simply install it and allow it to overwrite when asked.

Thank you Centurion for taking the time to do this! :bowdown:

The lovely and talented Khettienna has graciously made a patch to allow the interior of Halcyon House to work with All Natural! :bowdown: Thank you so much lady! It's available on the TESA download page, link in the first post.

It must load AFTER the Halcyon House.esp.


It's already tagged with C.Climate and you will need to rebuild your bashed patch before it will work.


Should go without saying, this patch requires Halcyon House, All Natural and must be used with WryeBash.

Enjoy. :foodndrink:

Well, dorky little sprite that I am, I couldn't pass up seeing the sky and surrounding water through the windows of one of my favorite homes. That whole house-on-the-water thing does it for me. :D
