It seems that the Tending the flames quest from the Bards College is bugged..at least for me.

On this quest, Viarmo is suppose to set a doll representing an old king on fire, but its not working. The first time he had a torch and a hammer on his hands and keep beating the doll. I reloaded the game and tried again, this time he keep touching the torch on the doll over and over...

Anyone else had the same problem? Theres a solution for it?

Yep this is happening to me now..... just keeps on burning the dummy over and over and over and over again..................

Was hoping to find a resolution.
