Can't get access to Nightspeer

[Errol Flynn]

I am on my second run, playing Shadowheart.
I want to get the Nightspeer, but after solving the riddle with the right book laying on the stone, I can't get through the relief of Shar to the treasure room ...
Is it a bug?

click the altar, you should get a pop up where you can slot in the correct book. Dont drop it on the altar.

Thank you. But ... I did that - multiple times. In my first run it was no problem. I can even hear sounds of opening doors or something.

Maybe you are not using the right book then: You want Teachings of Loss: The Nightsinger

The very same I use ...

I just played through this. I used the correct book. (The book gets left on top of the pedestal after you use the popup.)

For me, everything worked correctly, and I was able to have Shadowheart walk back and pick up the spear. So at least I can say that if it is bugged for the OP, it;s not bugged for everybody.

Run a game file verification, then load a save that is prior to you ever interacting with the pedestal. This means you may have to redo some content, but it has corrected similar issues I have experienced.
