"The trees... they're beautiful here. Reminds me of autumn at home."
―Valindor[src]

Valindor is a Bosmer who lives in Riften and works at the Riften Fishery.

Personality[]

He describes how he remembers Valenwood looking, because the Riften trees remind him of autumn in Valenwood. He, like most people of Riften, is tired of Riften's corruption by Maven Black-Briar and wants to leave.

Interactions[]

New Allegiances[]

In Dawnguard, Valindor is a possible target during the quest "New Allegiances," in which Vingalmo, courtier in Castle Volkihar, asks the Dragonborn to turn the target into a vampire for political purposes.

Conversations[]

Hard work is relaxing work[]

Svana: "How do you do it, Valindor? How do you work at Black-Briar Meadery and the Fishery without getting exhausted?" Valindor: "Oh, it's not so terrible. I actually find the work quite relaxing." Svana: "Relaxing? They must be working you to the bone! You should rest before you do yourself in." Valindor: "Not to worry, dear Svana. I promise you I can handle it, but your concern is quite flattering."
