Found a couple new bugs this morning involving the riften house .
I had just completed Waking Nightmare before going to bed last night . I fast traveled to Honeyside and put the Skull of Corruption on the weapon rack right inside the door of the room with the mannequins . This morning I loaded my game , and not only was the Skull missing , but the mannequin to the right of the door was standing directly in front of the weapon rack . The weapon was not in its inventory , which , oddly was still activated in the mannequins original position .
After reloading a previous file to get the Skull back , I once again went to Honeyside , stopping in Ivarstead on the way to steal some dreams with it . When I got to Riften , I killed the chickens in my backyard just to try out the Skull .
Iona did not take that very well . She attacked me instantly once I stepped inside the house .
After reloading my file once again , I did some experimenting . I've noticed a bunch of glitches where you can rob people through walls , so I though maybe I accidentally hit Iona when I was using the Skull . First I checked to make sure she was standing at the fire , then ran outside and flamed the side of the house with Firebolt . Went back inside , she's " happy to see you my thane " .
Okay , maybe its just the Skull then , so back outside I went , aimed the Skull at the side of the house , went back inside , still happy to see me .
Well maybe she's just oddly attached to the stupid chickens I thought . Back outside to kill the chickens I went . Went back inside , and was met with an axe to the face .
I tried this with both the Skull and a regular sword , Iona flips out regardless of what you kill her chickens with . Calm does not work on her , but going outside and waiting 3 days does .
Besides all of the above , I have been playing relativly lag and glitch free for 2 days . Someone on here suggested loading a file upon startup instead of hitting continue , and it seems to be working . No lag , and the dragons are acting normal .
