Dawnstar Quests Glitch

[Thequesh]

Sorry to bother you, but I'm having a weird glitch.

I am interested in building Heljarchen Hall, which is The Pale's Homestead. After I completed the Waking Nightmare mission, I went to talk to Jarl, he thanked me for solving the problem with the nightmares and then there was no option.

I know that after Waking Nightmare, Jarl gives a mission to kill a giant, but that doesn't happen, I tried to wait, travel to another place and come back and nothing.

There is no way to do Bounty quests or any Radiand Quest in the city. There is no way to get quests by talking to Inkeeper, the other NPCs like Frida, the alchemist, can't get the quest to get her ring back, or the quest to find the book for Rustleif, the blacksmith. Only the pieces of the Past mission by that guy from the museum is available.

As I recall, to become Thane somewhere, you have to do the main mission of the place or do the work that Jarl or Housecarl gives, then a mission like "Help The people of ..." appears and only you have to help 3 people in the city before becoming Thane.

I just don't remember if it is necessary to turn Thane to buy a property in the city, the Wiki says so.

I don't know why this is happening with Dawnstar, I tried to research and so far nothing. I am open to suggestions and help.

* My character has the necessary level for the missions.

I notice this in some playthroughs, not long ago in game I was in same boat, Jarl just wouldn't give kill giant quest even after Nightmare quest had been completed.

 

 

Currently I'm testing a mod that requires me to advance in game, build my reputation in towns up and leveling character up. So I just did Nightmare quest on that save game with character over lvl 20, and the Jarl instantly asked about killing giant, then I could buy property.

 

I think there is a vanilla bug,or there was that sometimes you can't buy house?

 

What lvl is you current character?

 

 

It can't be related but prior to doing nightmare quest with char just over lvl20, I did get note about museum, that event triggers the dawnstar court wizard to post up in front of museum until player character gets in proximity to be able to hear her telling museum guy to stop with what he is doing, then she goes back to Jarls House. I had that also done when i did Nightmare quest.

 

 

Edit: either becoming thane dialogue or you can buy house dialogue is triggered after killing Giant quest, I think I bought property then became thane?That is how Falkreath and Lakeview Manor is, you can buy that property before Thane,for sure. Doesn't matter which, you need Kill Giant quest from Jarl first regardless.

Thanks for answering.

My character is at level 26. The strange thing is that none of the other missions are available to do. Dialogues simply do not appear. I've tried to remove mods that may be related, but so far nothing.

Here is a picture of the options that appears when I speak to Jarl. The funny thing is that you don't have the option of looking for work when you talk to Inkeeper at the inn.

What mod were you experiencing that was related?
