Balmora! You're an awesome dude! (Dude? I think...) Anyways, I'm glad you like Balmora because my friends hate it. I use the Nerano Manor to store all my weapons and armor, and the Hlaalu Manor to store everything else. I like to lay stuff out on tables so it's all displayed nicely, and I killed the Nerano guy for a Thieves Guild quest so there's nobody in either house. (Except for the servant woman in Hlaalu Manor, but you can kill her or leave her alone. She won't bother you. Or you could lock her in her room like I did.

) It's kinda nice to have company. Though, in the Hlaalu Manor, there's a dead man lying on the floor that you can't get rid of. In my case, there's a naked dead man lying on the floor and it's kind of freaky. I usually put a pair of common pants on him, just to make it a little less weird. I set my Mark spell in Hlaalu Manor and whenever I get overencumbered, I just transport back there and organize everything neatly in the barrels so I know where everything is.

Hope this helps, and if it doesn't... I don't know.
