Not absorbing slains dragon's soul

Post » Fri May 11, 2012 7:59 am

I just killed a Blood Dragon in the mountains between Steamcrag Camp and Mistwatch and when it died, I didn't get the soul from it. It's corpse is just lying there and not burning up or anything.

Anyone else had this happen to them?

It seems as if you aren't a dragonborn.

Yes. I've had it happen after I had about 7 spare souls, so I just used one up and then my other dragon souls seemed to collect, but not the one I killed.

I assume it is just a glitch.

Uhm, excuse me. What?

I am level 28 and well into my shouts. What kind of reply is that?

Ah, that might explain it. I have 5 spare souls at the moment. I guess I will reload, use one and slay the dragon again. Thanks for the info :)

That's interesting. I'm having this issue, being unable to absorb the soul, but the dragon is near Silent Moons Camp (not that far from Whitrun watchtower where you kill the first dragon). Could be a re-spawn I guess.

I've tried reloading and killing it again, but still not getting a soul. Oh well. I guess this time I'll just loot it and carry on!

I'm thinking that it's what people might call a "joke."

I prefer to think of myself as sweetroll born - absorbing the souls of sweetrolls every time I eat one.
