Just killed a dragon and I didn't absorb it's soul.
It happened at Bonestrewn Crest next to Steamcrag Camp in Eastmarch. Now I had already killed a dragon there previously and read the word wall. I was passing again and there was another dragon so I killed, but no soul. It didn't decompose either.
Any ideas?

You're not The Dragonborn?

thats happend to me 5 times now

i prefer them when they dont decompose so i can look at all the details bethesda put into a single dragon

you just dont see that detail when they flying about and burning things

theres reports that once a soul has been absorbed once when that particular dragaon respawns you wont absorb its soul again.

I don't know why they re-spawn dragons it seems daft. I get re-spawning other things but dragons. It takes a lot to kill them a then to get no soul.

The one at Bonestrewn is infamous for that. Jarls give bounties on dragons. If you killed that dragon peeviously, it'll respawn eventually when there is a bounty for it.

Yea, re-spawned dragons won't give you a soul. Otherwise it would be too easy. Just fast travel to a dragon peak and kill the dragon over and over. LOL And yea, what medsteele said...
