#[The Big Tree] Soft locked

Hello, I have a save game issue after being soft locked on this quest.

Behavior: In the Big Tree, after destroying 4th Pillar, I got a dialogue from Laika to Orella:
"All secondary pillars are down. Back to the Catacombs?". I was pressing "E" to skip it, but it would not activate, and remained for a while without skipping.
I restarted game before dialogue could continue to see if I could fix "E" skipping. Coming back in game, my objective was not updated to go to the catacombs, it kept saying "Break all the secondary pillars to weaken the pyramid's structure". Going to the Catacombs does not produce additional workarounds.

Seeing that I cannot break them anymore, I conclude that I've soft locked myself.

Attached save game, if possible to do anything about it. I've tried to hex edit it, but the data structures for quest steps elude me ^.^

hi! I'll check it ASAP

let me know if it doesn't work!

Yes, thank you, it worked!

A strategy could be to save immediately before an important dialogue or as soon as a world changing event happens, to avoid players accidentally soft blocking themselves if they crash/exit/do shenanigans

minor lark

Hi, not sure if to reply or start a new thread;
But I’ve seemed to run into a similar/same issue: after destroying the last pillars (having none visible on the map anymore) the dialogue played out, but after heading to the catacombs pillar it cannot be broken and says that I have remaining pillars to take care of.
Thanks for the help if possible!
