The majority of indoor areas outside of the major holds in Glenumbra, Stormhaven, and Rivenspire all appear to be permanently looted. There are a few other smol, random places throughout Tamriel that are like this too, but it seems to be uniform in the Breton region. Did I miss a plot point that explained this? In the the Faolchu regions, I can understand this, but it's a little confusing from the Montclair and Bloodthorn standpoints. The Montclairs are nobles so looting seems out of place, and everyone seems to have it organized against the Bloodthorns, like any other strife in the land, so everywhere being looted doesn't seem normal 'XD
Karliah, when will you learn?!!
