Brave Fools Die Young

SecondarySkellige
Age-old customs can be as dangerous as they are beautiful - a lesson learned the hard way by the two young fishermen Geralt encountered on Ard Skellig. As youth of their line had done for ages, the men set out to light a fire on the shoulder of a certain gigantic statue. Sadly, one of them slipped on the plinth, fell and broke his leg. Geralt decided to help the injured man.

Fixing a softlock

Enable the debug console, then look for a fact under Gates the quest checks — one the quest is actively waiting on. If that flag never got written, addfact it to the value shown and the gate clears.

Setting a Set these to advance fact only marks a step done — it won't run the step or skip the quest forward, and it can't fix a softlock caused by a scene that never played or an NPC that didn't spawn (reload an earlier save for those). Save before forcing any fact.
