I was playing in Taratosa. I just tried a new save and that seemed to work. I'm not sure if it made a difference but I had the new save start in Forgotten Hollow.

Would you be willing to share your save with me ?
If so, please zip your saves folder and upload it somewhere like dropbox, googledrive or OneDrive and PM me the link.
