I would be intereested in spelllbooks or ordinary books teaching you useful skills or information in the new game.
Even had a mini-quest to get the owner of the mage shop to listen to some bard outside while you ransack his bed room, one item was a spell book in there.
No, this
a) was no quest, but instead a kind of "exploit", as I consider this,
It wasn't a quest, but it's not an exploit, it was put in deliberately. It's the only way you can steal from the back room of that store, and stuff worth stealing was specifically put back there.
Exploiting is when you can use containers you bring into stores to steal from shelves without the owners caring.
