I was about to start a thread about an artifact that I was searching for. I had already searched the web and this forum for an answer, come up blank, and was composing a thread asking for help. I was typing the sentence, "I'm even in the right dungeon!", when I asked myself, "Am I really in the right dungeon?"
So I stopped and checked. I wasn't. I wasn't doing what I thought I was doing where I thought I was doing it. I was literally scouring the walls and floors inch-by-inch looking for clues for hours, when I'd resolved that quest hours ago.
So, before you waste the time of the long-suffering participants of this forum, be certain that your problem is legitimate. Double-check your facts. Yes, there are a lot of legitimate bugs and weird puzzles, but a lot of problems just come from becoming 'game-sighted' and unable to see the problem that is right in front of you because your mind has settled on a course of action that your location does not support.
See? It's not just a 'newb' problem. Anybody can have it.
Fable, feel free to close this thread at once. It does not brook a reply, and is meant for informational purposes only. Thank you.
