I hired Uthgard as Steward. Capable, I thought. Went on a trip, came back to find a giant slouching on my wood pile. Uthgard was just politely watching... I mean, the giant was really doing no harm, even I might have left him alone had he not gotten snarky when I got too close to MY wood pile...

Just gives me pause, it does...

You are lucky, after i appoint Uthgard as my steward i have no further steward dialogue options, please help.
I tried with all mods unistalled but still no effect. Can anyone help me?

Lydia does a pretty good job as steward of my house in Hjaalmarch. She was attacking a Giant as I returned from some dungeon diving... of course, she didn't last long. xD
