'Completed' but not 'done' quest: 'The Doom of the world'
Posted: Mon Jun 22, 2020 11:30 am
I apologise if this turns out not to be a bug; I accept that I might have missed something important.
I'm playing the steam game that says engine version 1.6.7.
I've many quest logs that all show 'done' and a few that show 'active', but one quest says 'completed', although I wonder why that's different from 'done' because I find myself a bit stuck regarding where to go and what to do.
My 'completed' (but not done) 'The Doom of the World!' quest says, "... The volcano is attacked by orcs. A few Sun Paladins made it there with you. They will hold the line at the cost of their lives to buy you some time. Honor their sacrifice; do not let the orcs finish their work! You arrived in time and interrupted the ritual. The sorcerers have departed. Use the portal to go back to the Far east. You *MUST* stop them, no matter the cost."
My active quests are -
'Sher'Tul Fortress': I have 7 completed/starred sub-tasks
'Melinda, lucky girl'
'The many Prides of the Orcs': Completed one, with 3 prides remaining. I've wandered around and completed exploring as many locations as possible, including engaging the roaming bands of orcs on the Far East map.
'There and back again': I need to find a resonating diamond and a blood-runed athame.
'The Orbs of Command': 'You have found an orb of command that seems to be used to open the shield protecting the High Peak. There seems to be a total of four of them. The more you have the weaker the shield will be.'
After running through the volcano in time, killing the thing at the end, and teleporting out, I can't find Aeryn at 'Gates of morning'. I notice a few locations that used to be visitable on the Far East top-level map are no longer enterable.
I did use orb of many ways to exit the portal at the end of the volcano. It brings me out at the exit of the 'unremarkable cave' on the 'far east' world map. Tried it again and the same happens. Aeryn isn't anywhere to be found at the 'gates of morning'.
The only other visitable locations are 'unremarkable cave' (cleared), 'gates of morning', 'arid wastes of eruan' (leads to volcano, cleared), and 'entrance to a dark crypt' in the south western desert, but entering this takes me to 'shadow crypt' maze, which I've cleared; level 3 takes me to a square room without entrance or exit, so using my rod of recall takes me the sher'tul fortress entrance... but the entrance gate is now locked! Only way out is the steps, which takes me to 'Lake of Nur (3)' and eventually exits to 'old forest', when eventually exits back at 'entrance to a dark crypt' on the far east world map.
I cannot go anywhere else or do anything else (that I can see).
Don't know how to get back to west.
There's no one but the shop-keepers and gem-ring guy to talk to at the gates of morning.
I can't find the blood-runed athame or resonating diamond or complete any of my other quests.
All of which leads me to suspect I might have stumbled across a bug (or perhaps overlooked some critical dialog or instructions somewhere).
