Sun in Shadow exit?
Hi! What is the way to leave Sun in Shadow? Reloading is not an option due to Trial of Iron.

You cannot leave the pit after you jump down, it is a point of no return. The game warns you about that quite explicitly.

Not explicit enough provided that there are add-ons that are usually meant to be played after the main campaign. Anyway there was no reason to close all the areas after the Sun of Shadow.

Ok, I found the command. Now all I need is to reactivate the achievements.

The game literally gives you a pop-up warning and even makes you a special pre-pit autosave on non-Trial of Iron playthroughs. Who even does Trial of Iron on a game BLIND?

The information you learn in Sun-in-Shadow is too major to let you leave. It fundamentally changes your understanding of key aspects of the lore, and the amount of rewrites that would be required if you could leave with that information would be astronomical.

The warning and the savegame name are very explicit and don't contradict with the existence of DLC.

Btw, Trial of Iron is entirely unrelated.

That's a fallacy. Various add-ons and expansions are integrated into games instead of being post-end content.

Why? Is there an additional save somewhere?
You either confuse Trial of Iron mode with the Triple Crown Solo achievement, or there is something else you would need to expand on.

Edit: Afterall, you don't need "to leave Sun in Shadow for Trial of Iron".

Hm. I must have chosen another wording if this one is misleading. Corrected.

It absolutely does. Either you've encountered a unique glitch or, because you disregarded the warning the first time, used console commands to leave, and came back, the warning doesn't appear a second time.

It does not. It might be a glitch, a localization bug, a localization inaccuracy or whatever, but there is no relevant statement.

Upd.: checked in English; nothing changed.

I agree with Sotnik, I received no such pop-up about a point of no return any time when travelling towards burial island, entering the pit, or entering Sun in Shadow. I was very conscious of this, and was looking for such a warning as I was pretty sure this was the end-game. This was playing English version. It was no major beef for me, but I would have liked to switch out my characters one last time before Thaos.

It's exactly by the pit, never had an issue with it.
