Iris von Emerich doesn't spawn.

[Atom.Little]

I'm doing the quest Scenes from a Marriage which is part of the main quest line. But I'm stuck. I've just conquered The Caretaker and went into the house where the game tells me to go upstairs and find Iris con Emerich. So I went upstairs after first looking through every highlighted item in the house as well as outside the house. But upstairs I just can't get anywhere, none of the doors will open and nothing happens, I'm just standing there.

Finally I looked up a Youtube video and saw that Iris von Emerich is supposed to spawn when you reach the top of the stairs but this doesn't happen for me.

I've tried logging out and back in since this has helped in two other cases where Heart & Stone quests didn't work (though the bug in both of those cases were that the boss mob didn't take any damage). But in this quest there's no change, Iris von Emerich still doesn't spawn when I reach the top of the stairs even when I make sure to stand exactly on the spot shown on the map (y'know, th dotted line that leds you to where you're supposed to go/be at).

I've even tried going back out to see if there was something I'd overlooked and I found a few highlighted things I hadn't "examined", but it still makes no difference. I've also tried entering the house through a different door (which is probably only open to me because I've been inside the house already).

Nothing seems to work.

It'll be too much of a shame if I can't finish the Heart & Stone expansion simply because of one bug, so I'm hoping somevody can help me out with a tip or some advice.

Thanks in advance. :)

P.S. Sorry about the lengthy post.

Not sure which part you got stuck, but let's follow this walkthrough:

"After dispatching The Caretaker and wrapping your head around the notion of a talking cat and dog, head inside the manor house to search for Iris.

Make your way through the open door on the left of the foyer to enter the parlor, then pick up the sketchbook on the table after the cutscene.

Go through the door to the right (near the front of the building) to enter the main hall, then head up the stairs and follow the landing around to the left. Move through the burned-out study and onto the balcony, then head back inside via the entrance to the guest bedroom to your right.

After moving through the door into the hall, you'll have a short mini-boss fight."

Are you saying you can not enter burned study on second floor? Or the balcony?

In any case, since there is patch coming tomorrow, might want to update the game first and see if that fixed something.

This was what I missed. I just didn't see, or at least never went through, that door at the far left because I thought it led out of the building - I didn't consider the possibility that it might also lead back in again.

Thanks, buddy. You saved my day. :)
