I have a couple of questions about the main Dragonborn quest:
1) I decided to go ahead and see if using Bend Will on an All-Maker stone before beginning the DB MQ would work the same way as after the MQ started. It did. A Lurker appeared and then the scripted dragon. Does this affect the MQ?
2) What if I were to do this to free the Skaal before Storn asks me to? Would that break the MQ? (Can I even do it? I may make a save just to find out.)
