SSE-VERSION HERE.
Song of the Green is a fully voiced follower and quest mod, which centers around Bosmer culture and tradition.
Auri, a traditionalist Wood Elf archer, will follow you, do your bidding, and offer occasional snarky commentary about your surroundings and actions.
If you want, that will be the extent of your relationship. If you choose to, however, expressing interest in Bosmeri culture and Auri herself, will make your companion open up to you, and perhaps reveal more about the reasons for her arrival in Skyrim. The more you speak to her, the more she will have to say, and finishing her mini-quest will unlock several unique conversations depending on where you are.

FAQ:
Where is she?
In Falkreath Hold. Look for Auri's Pod on your map.
Why does she look so weird? She looks nothing like the other Bosmer in skyrim!
-Auri's appearance is based off the Bosmer found in the Elder Scrolls: Online. According to lore, Bosmer are supposed to be small, curious and friendly, and I think the wide-eyed look reflects that description of them much better than the wrinkly angular bosmer of Skyrim.

Help! I've finished her Quest but I don't see an option to romance her!
-Completing Auri's quest (Song of the Green) will unlock a chain of conversations which might lead to a romance. Keyword here is might. Auri is a very independent person, and she will only be interested in you if you are up to her standards, so to speak. If you say something that she perceives as uncaring or boring, she will not pursue a romance with you.
Auri's follower dialogue won't show up!
-Auri is built on the vanilla follower system. Make sure you either have no other followers with you, or are using some kind of follower management system that allows multiple followers. If this fails, it's likely you have some kind of mod conflict.
I can't find Auri's camp in evergreen grove!
-The camp is unmarked in the vanilla game. This is the camp you want to look for.
I'm at the camp, but there are no new conversation options!
-Wait until nightfall. Some conversations are best had at night by a campfire.
Help! Auri hates me!
-It seems you've managed to accuse her of being a Thalmor spy. She doesn't like that.
Known Issues:
Song of the Green is my first ever mod, built slowly with the help of online tutorials, trial and error, and the help of some very patient modder friends. As a result, the mod still has many little bugs and quirks that I simply lack the experience to fix. I ask for your patience and understanding when encountering any issues, I'm still learning.
-Some horse management mods seem to interfere with Auri's ability to dismount.
A workaround is to use her summon spell to get her off her mount.
-The Navmesh inside and around Auri's Pod is a little buggy, and sometimes causes followers to fall through
the steps by the door.
