The dolmens are the dark anchors being used by Molag Bal to drag the world into Coldharbour.

The mini dolmens are dark fissures/portals which open up and spawn three baddies plus another boss. And at the moment killing that boss gives you event tickets. There are many other things to kill and do to get the tickets but this particular one is the only one I can get to quickly.

In Sweden a dolmen is a dish made of meat-filled cabbage leaves.
(Similar to Greek, or maybe it's Turkish dolma...)

Verkligen?

In English it's a kind of large, stone monument .

And in the game I saw my first one the other day on that long quest with the big woman...



EDIT: And back in Skyrim I took the coach back to Solitude to talk to the housey upgrade chap and there were no dialogue options available for that.
So I went to have a look in Proudspire Manor and I DO have the childrens' room already.

I'm now thinking that you have to keep the two children you adopt in a single house and that's why it would only let me move her to Whiterun. Apparently there's a mod that lets you have multiple adoptions so I might check that out and-


Nexusmods is down!

We call those things "dös"

and yeah Nexusmods was down all evening yesterday. It's back now, though.
I have the multiple adoptions mod, in case I'd ever like to adopt anyone, but I think you still need to have them all in one place. So you can adopt up to 6 kids but you need a 6 bed house? I think.

That stupid lout Galmar! He just won't let me report in. It's the exact same spot as before (liberate Hjaalmarch) and I've tried everything I've found. I've slept for 24 hours, I've reloaded an earlier save (even redid the entire previous stage), I've resetactor and resetAI and setstage to both the end of the previous quest and the beginning of this one. The only "fix" I haven't tried is beating Galmar to a pulp and then staying away for ten days. I tried the staying away for ten days last time as well and it didn't work then. Guess fighting is the only option left.

And if that doesn't work? What's the point of even trying to play as a stormcloak?

Edit: I attacked once and then sheated my weapons and he didn't seem upset but also wouldn't let me report in. Then I remembered  I was to fight him until he was bleeding out/kneeling so I did and after that he now was a bit upset and tried to kill me so I ran off. I checked the time - 1 pm on the 16th - so I calculated I should be back on the 27th. Then I slept for 17 hours and fast travelled to Solitude and it's now.... 11 am on the 16th.  
I guess fast travelling is faster than light so time runs backwards?  

I don't know. I was planning on joining the Stormclocks this time around as I did the others on my other playthrough. I still haven't got around to the war stuff yet.

If you don't need to beat Galmar to a pulp, please don't tell me.

Edit: Unless you find a way to make him work, that is. 

I am considering the possibility that I'd need to do something else first, but I'm not sure what. Game guides say you can be around level 6 for this questline and I'm almost at 16. So it's not that, at least. I've not seen any other stuff mentioned, like having had to see the Greybeards for instance. Although since asking about them is Galmar's top dialogue choice, maybe I should try it. (Was gonna go anyway - I need to do something for 10 days after all, and I've managed to spend two of them so far...)

3 days of 10... and in Ivarstead but not started up the stairs. There was another bear in the inn again and I suspect it's the one that's usually outside of the cave by the foot of the stairs as there was no bear there. Only 7 days to go... to most likely find Galmar as stoopid as before.

Still haven't done any of the war stuff so I don't even know who that guy is.


Anyway, the other day I said something about the online game and its armour. What was it now?
Ah, yes. That was it...

Well, now I know that you CAN buy that option to hide them using event tickets!
I haven't purchased it but I was chatting with the Impresario's Assistant (I didn't know she even had an assistant until today) and he was selling stuff too, including that.
I'm still not sure what to use my tickets on. I now have 10 (but I still need another four to complete the weekly endeavour of 8. Yes, I had two previously from last week. ) and I'm gonna have to spend some of them soon cos you're only allowed to hold 12 at any one time for... reasons.
There are a couple of flying pets you can get by buying 3 fragments at 5 tickets each and I think I may be able to get to 15 tickets before the event is over but I'd have to commit to spending before being able to get the full 15 seeing as it's more that 12.
I don't know. We'll see.
But speaking of pets I have now got the big-eared cat and it walks just as slow as the vvardvark...

The perfect pet for you, then.
