Here lies the abyss, quest is over but still need to find Warden-Commader Clarel

Hello,

I did the main quest: Here Lies the Abyss. It is totally finished, but I have a bug. Apperently I stil need to find Warden-Commander Clarel, but the quest is done. I can't go back to Adamant. 

Please help me..

With kind regards, KingKein

Map of orlais, you can see I already went to Adamant: https://gyazo.com/b389303f98f6689396aee599b77d280c

  • @Canavar_Kaan Unfortunately, you can't fix bugs like this once they've happened, your only option is to load a save from before the bug and hope it doesn't happen again. It looks like the bug happened before you went to the Fade, so you'll need a save from before then (perhaps one from before you went to Adamant at all).

    If you do that and it keeps happening, there may be something wrong with the game, so you might want to try a repair through Origin (right click the game in Origin, select 'repair game').  Again, this won't fix a save where the bug has already happened. (Also, only applicable if you're on PC)

    Is the bug preventing you from doing further main storyline quests? If you've already been to the Winter Palace (which you can do before or after Adamant, so this bug shouldn't affect it either way), can you do the next main quest, or is it not showing up? Are your companions and advisors behaving as if you've finished Adamant? If the bug is merely in the journal and not causing issues with story progression, it might be easier to just ignore it. Annoying, yes, but perhaps preferable to replaying Adamant (and anything else you might have done since your last non bugged save).

    Good luck, let us know how you go 🙂

    Unfortunatly I don't have a save from before Adamant, I would need to go play way too much so I won't do that. I don't think it is hindering me, because I did need to chose a fate for a magister(beheaded) and a female warden(send to deep roads). So I think the quest is over but is just still in de journal( YES VERY * ANNOYING). But what can you do :/

    Thanks you for the quick response, really appreciat it.

    Kind regards, KingKein

    @Canavar_Kaan A good thing to remember in this game is to create a manual save before doing anything major (main quests or companion quests). Certain quests are quite prone to bugs (Cole and Solas in particular), so I recommend keeping a few saves so you can avoid some of the more disastrous bugs. 😉
