Important Notice:

This quest currently has a major bug that may cause the game to crash during teleportation.

I suggest avoiding the quest until a fix is released. If you're not experiencing crashes, please note that the quest will only update properly after a scene transition with a loading screen (e.g. fast traveling to another area).

Thanks for your understanding!
