did you ask before or after killing harkon

same issue. i told valercia that hes ded. she said shell pack up and be out.. then went right back to alchemy. i left via the entrence, and nothing happened... ;;

I have no idea what to do with this bug(?) and it's getting really frustrating. I hope the creator fixes this, or at least gives us a solution.

ok guys, issue resolved all i did was use console to mover her to my location in her lab

which command did you use to move her?

Can you give us the console command to to that cause I suck at those ;(

1. open console and select npc with mouse but ofc you don't know where it is so type "prid XXXXX" (where XXXXX is npc refId) but ofc you don't know the refid so you can either:
a. save game, load a previous save, select the npc and write down the refid the load ur last save
b. find it here: elderscrolls.wikia.com)
c. type [help "npc name"] without the brackets witch gives you the BASE id and you need to convert that to the refid so that's not really helpful...

you should have some numbers in the middle of the screen

2. type "moveto player" to move npc to your location (will only work if npc is alive, if its not alive first type "resurrect 1")
-or if you want to go to the npc type "player.moveto XXXXX" (where XXXXX is npc refId)

The teleporting Valerica-thing didn't work. I'll try and see if any of my mods conflict with her going back to the castle. (Prolly should've tried this first)

This is really confusing, At least to me anyway. So could you post here the line you used. I tried the "moveto player" command but I got a script error for "Move". What is "npc refld"? This makes no sense.

Just Click on her, go to the lab, then type MoveToPlayer in the Console.

didnt work

when i use the console command, she just immediately walks right back to the portal to the soul cairn

use aft make her a follower n drag her a s s back with you :)
& dont forget to use the aft command dismiss but hang out here once ur back in the castle :)

After some digging around I found this command:

set DLC1VQ05PostMove to 2

I then selected her in the command window and teleported her to me via "moveto player".
That did the trick, and she started walking out of the cairn.

Just posting here to help anyone whom it might help.
