I've been facing a problem in the Heljarchen Hall regarding the Bard. I've paid my steward twice already for a bard, (I did lost the money), The house itself is nearly finished, including all beds. But for some reason my bard doesn't show up. The same problem with the carriage or a lousy chicken. I pay the money, but they just don't appear. Is there anything I'm doing wrong?

Great, I've solved the problem. If you have a house before, then make sure you hire a new steward, because the old one coming from the first house is going to send everything to the first house...
