Meet your friends!
All of your friends that are merchants have leveled gold. As you level up, so does their gold. Each friend has a preference in what they sell. If your friend is a Sneak trainer, they will mainly sell Sneak items, such as Fortify Sneak enchanted items and ingredients that can be used to create Fortify Sneak potions. Not all of your friends can be married, but some of them can. It is now possible to marry a female and male Bosmer and Altmer. All friends that are followers have the Light Foot perk, so they won't set off traps while adventuring with you.
Look around the area where your friends reside, and you may find books and journals lying about. Read them to learn more about that person. Some of the books you find will even give you a skill increase depending on the topic being discussed in the book, some of these books will even mark locations on your map.
New books and spells!
There are 5 new skills books and 3 new spell tomes. Two skill books can be found in Riverwood, just look around outside the shack. Three skills books can also be found in Whiterun, just wander around the Plains District and check the Drunken Huntsman. Russi, an Altmer mage, sells three new powerful spell tomes.
Have fun, and get to know your new friends!
