After modding skyrim through the nexus and having an overall good time with minimal problems, my attempts to complete the dark brotherhood questline have resulted in the largest bug I've seen so far.

After talking to Nazir to receive your first set of contracts, and carrying them all out before returning to the sanctuary, I returned only to find there being no sign of cicero's entrance scene, only everyone in their usual places. I went to nazir to complete the contracts and after that he said he didnt have any additional contracts. I went back to astrid but the most info I can get out of her is that she doesnt have any contracts for me and that the night mother will be coming to the sanctuary soon.

Now I find myself stuck in between the two quests and have no way to get it going again.

I've already tried messing with the console with and but nothing worked other than astrid getting stuck leaning against the wall with no dialogue options.

Someone help.

This would be better in the mod forum, and can you list the mods you have loaded please.

you could try cathing up with Cicero near the tower where you fight your first dragon...he is pushing the nightmothers cart there...or simply try restarting the quests from a prior save

?? Outside of the Sanctuary, I have only seen Cicero and his broken cart near the farm immediately east of Whiterun.
