-That every shopowner and local peasant locks their house at night, but I can walk straight into a palace and into the Jarl's bedroom at night without no one asking any questions or trying to stop me (even visiting Ulfric Stormcloak in his sleep while wearing an imperial armor).
I did exactly the same to Ulfric, Standing there in all my Imperial finery swinging a sword in a threatening manner while he just carried on snoring.
Back to the main point, I cannot suspend my disbelief over idiotic immersion breaking comments, You all know the one's & they are mentioned above.
I had just completed the jarl of Riftens mission to become thane & handed it in, While standing there the Jarl asks her steward about any rumours regarding a Skooma den, Her steward replies that there is no basis to it & it's not worth sending any resources to find out.
Words to that effect anyway, They must have goldfish memories & forgotten i had completed the quest 30 seconds ago & become thane.
It goes on & on unfortunately;)
