I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I killed "The Dweller" but when I looted his body, I only got a piece of "Awakened wood" and no head. When I went back to the warden to collect my (much needed) bounty - no dialogue was triggered for me to collecct the bounty and the quest is still showing up in my journal as incompleted. I went back to the same spot to see if I needed to kill him again or if I missed picking up his head and nothing was there. I did engage some bandits at my keep via "manual resolve" before I visited the warden, maybe that's why I didn't get to collect the bounty, but I'm kind of frustrated at this point. ( Any help or pointers?

I too am in awe of your chaotic evil dedication... In awe and a tiny bit scared. ;-)

So, that totally makes sense, and I totally expected an ambush upon leaving and snuck around and didn't run in to Kolsc and couldn't find him in the Gilded Vale. But I reloaded to the point just after I won the battle (after backstabbing that SoB) and pranced around like a ninny, burning hole marks in the throne room from all the circles I ran NOT in stealth mode, and no Kolsc still. I explored other parts of the hold and even went to the main throne room entrance from the ramparts and walked through that way-still no Kolsc. I really really really don't want to redo that fight, but I want to complete the quest, and I tried and failed about ten times to win the fight honestly (either by dialogue and then attack or sneak attack), and just could not win without flanking and attacking after agreeing to work with Raederic. HELP!!!?! I am going to put off playing anymore so I don't lose progress I made when this bug gets fixed somehow. Thank you!!
