    Title: Vikland- Erling says he gave me both a yellow and a red crystal but he only gave me a red one.
    Reproduction Rate:
    Blocker? no just confusing

    Details: Erling says he gave me both a yellow and a red crystal but he only gave me a red one.

    Steps to Reproduce: talk to Erling and click on his keywords. eventually he will say: 'Vikland crystals can be found all over the region. I gave you a red one and a yellow one. If you lose them, I don't have any replacements. You'll have to sort through corpses and break open chests if you want to find replacements.'
    But he only gives a red one and we get a quest marker to find the yellow one. (I think it was the second time I said Erica that this conversation came up)

    Did you possibly already have some of those crystals already in your inventory? Just a guess and observation.

    This quest was only added in 1426 so no the bug has not been fixed. Yes he gives us the red and we need to go find the yellow. Yes he says the things that you quote above and those things he says are correct. The bug is that he also says the comment that I reported that says he gave me both crystals which is not true. It is that portion of the conversation that needs to change not the stuff you are quoting here or the rest of the quest. I can provide Sannio with my full chat log of the conversation if he requests it but I quoted the line that was wrong since I figure that is the important part and likely all he needs.

    Since Rinaldi posted in the feedback thread that he was getting a different response to the crystal keyword than I did I searched my chat logs and and am posting my full conversation with Erling below in case it helps. I marked the phrases suggesting I was given both color crystals in blue.

    [12/9/2022 4:20:35 PM] Erling: Hello, outlander.
    [12/9/2022 4:20:35 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:20:38 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: Are you Erling?
    [12/9/2022 4:20:38 PM] Erling: Yes, that's my name. Can I help you?
    [12/9/2022 4:20:38 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:20:41 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: Erica
    [12/9/2022 4:20:42 PM] Erling: Erica is... was my mother. I figured out how to open the door of the Obsidian Cave but became trapped by panthers. I surely would have died if my mother hadn't tracked me. She slaughtered the panthers but... but her wounds were deep and many. She died on the way back to our village. Now, my father hates me!
    [12/9/2022 4:20:42 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:20:56 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: I'm sorry about Erica.
    [12/9/2022 4:20:57 PM] Erling: My mother's dead, outlander! And it's MY fault! Even worse, my mother's amulet of testimony is lost forever in the Obsidian Cave... no wonder Hagen hates me!
    [12/9/2022 4:20:57 PM] I should mention Erica again if I'm to learn the full story.
    [12/9/2022 4:20:57 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:21:10 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: I'll get it for you.
    [12/9/2022 4:21:11 PM] Erling: You'd do that? Bless you! I can't go to the Obsidian Cave, but you can! Place this red crystal in the hand of the southern statue. You'll have to find the yellow crystal for the other statue. It rolled into a pile of gore at the cave. After both crystals are placed, you have a few seconds to run through the doorway into the tunnels. Look for Erica's amulet of testimony just inside the doorway. Bring me the amulet so I can give it to my father and maybe he won't hate me anymore!
    [12/9/2022 4:21:11 PM] I need to find a Yellow Vikland Crystal to solve the door puzzle.
    [12/9/2022 4:21:11 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:21:11 PM] You received an item (Red Vikland Crystal) from Erling.
    [12/9/2022 4:21:21 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: Erling
    [12/9/2022 4:21:21 PM] Erling: That's me. I'm Erling Hagenson.
    [12/9/2022 4:21:21 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:21:27 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: Erica
    [12/9/2022 4:21:27 PM] Erling: Don't forget, you need both a red Vikland crystal and a yellow Vikland crystal for the statues to open the door of the Obsidian Cave... but they don't have to be the ones I gave you.
    [12/9/2022 4:21:27 PM] Erling: If you lose either one, I don't have any more. Perhaps there are more in the piles of gore in the Obsidian Cave? Also, I've heard our raiders say you can sometimes find crystals of various colors in corpses in the region, including the Obsidian Elves that plague some areas.
    [12/9/2022 4:21:27 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:22:09 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: elf
    [12/9/2022 4:22:09 PM] Erling: I'm supposed to tell someone if I see an elf, but I'm not afraid of them. If I ever see any, I'll slit their throats!
    [12/9/2022 4:22:09 PM]
    [12/9/2022 4:22:15 PM] Gwendolyn Obscuro: crystal
    [12/9/2022 4:22:15 PM] Erling: Vikland crystals can be found all over the region. I gave you a red one and a yellow one. If you lose them, I don't have any replacements. You'll have to sort through corpses and break open chests if you want to find replacements.
