You won't believe this. Using the console I summoned the mage 3 times and killed him 3 times. There are 3 bodies in the cave now. between each killing I went back to Inog and just got the pickpocket option as before. On the last try, just as I was about to give up again, I got the option to take Inog to his brother. Have no idea what triggered it this time but I'm happy I saved it.

That's great. You were persistent. Hope it goes more smoothly now. There were a couple of strange happenings for me later in the game.

Are there any vials in this game? I've learned how to make permanent potions but lack empty vials. I've found only one so far.

Rowan, there is a great walkthrough here. I hope it helps.

Ana, that walkthrough is not for Forsaken Gods. G3 Gorsaken Gods is a stand alone game but it has many bugs. I was just wondering if the lack of vials is one of the glitches or if there is hope to find a few more. Thanks for trying to help.

Rowan, I googled but had no luck. Hopefully, a vet will be by and will be able to help.

Have you tried all the alchemists? I don't recall anything about vials. Here is the forum if you haven't found it:

Thanks Pokey

Rowan, are you still stuck?

Sorry not to get back sooner. I haven't played much for the last few days. Instead I put on my fall gardening armor, unsheathed my weed and leaf raking sword, and fought my battles in the garden. :witch: Now I'm healing with a potion of tea.

I was able to buy some vials from a merchant.

Glad you won your battles in the garden and with the vials
