Canadianvixen,
Oh, two more things:
1.) Welcome to the forum!
2.) Save, save, save, save, save, ,save, save, save, SAVE!! For instance: I easily save over five times during each trip to the Vale of Shadows. That is because I save just before any "high risk" manuever (e.g., entering a new dungeon level, starting a challenging fight, disabling a trap, or pick-pocketing Oswald Fiddlebender), and I also save just AFTER a successful completion of that high-risk manuever. I save these all under one name: If it is during my 3rd trip to the Vale, I save under "Vale 3" for the duration of that trip and the actions in town just after. Each time I re-enter the Vale, I save to a new title ("Vale 5," "Vale 6," etc.) so that I have previous trips archived (10 "Vale saves" archived, so far!) This will save you from ever having to regress more than a few hours in your adventures.
Hope this increases your game enjoyment!
