Okay, So, I've heard horror stories of this place being absolutely packed with high-leveled enemies and all this dangerous stuff very similar to the Skeleton Caves. I finally decided to check it out since I had a fair few Invisibility potions to toss around and was in the area.
Well, I went down there, invisible and in detect mode, roaming around. I spotted all of the normal nasty surprises one could expect from a dungeon like this, circumvented them and continued on. Nearly an hour later, I've completely circumnavigated the area without a hitch, found a ton of decent loot, some ores and herbs yet didn't run into a single enemy. Not one. No bats, no rats, no random skeletons or wolves or goblins, nothing. There were three locked doors that needed keys, but it seems there's no key in the area.
Now, my question is this: Is that normal?
I mean, I like the fact that it's a new area, new things to learn and explore, but there literally was nothing there except loot and some irritating traps. It just seems a little... Odd to me. Comments?
EDIT: Found the key! Searched the rest of the place and still no enemies.
