Finders Keepers

SecondarySkellige
Geralt found a merchant who knew the captain of the wrecked ship. He promised he would round up some men and retrieve the cargo, hoping to salvage at least a portion of the lost goods for the rightful owner's family.

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.
