A bug just made the game a little bit better for me....

I came into a weird bug where the Night Mother in the quest Whispers in the Dark, doesn't have a voice.

I thought this was OK according to the lore that surrounds her, considering that she was the bearer of the children of a primordial eldritch abomination whose whole existence is the absences of existance. So I thought that audible silence meant somthing.

It made it 10x creepier with the eldritch glow fading in and out around her fetid skull and the voices projected into my head by just reading the subtitles. I thought the developers did this on purpose. Untill I looked up a video of the quest on youtube, and found out that she did have a voice. It was what I expected to hear the first time, some whipsy old ladies voice telling me that I'm someone special.

Funny, a bug made the game more immersive for me.

I was scared [censored]less when I understood the notion that I was going to have to get into the coffin with her, I thought she was going to give me a reach around or somthing.

I was pretty sure she was going to try and eat my face.

If you go into Sneak mode before entering her coffin, you will usually be DETECTED during the event with Circero.

(I'm guessing this is Circero detecting you, but it's fun to think it's the Night Mother herself!)

That's probably worse than being face to face with her...
