🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure you have the latest SKSE version for your game build, or the plugin won't load.
Install via your mod manager to keep your load order clean—this is a simple plugin, so just drop it in and enable.
If you use mods that alter holds or add new cities, test in those areas to see if hostility persists.
