Can't kill Arnora

Contextual information:

- Earlier in the quest I told Tyrellius that we would split the gold between us.

- I got arrested for pickpocketing a guard outside the castle.

- I tried to pick the lock of my jail cell just for the heck of it and failed, then I used the bed to wait out my sentence.

- Between leaving jail and going back to talk to Jorundr there was a day or so, because it was werewolf time shortly after I was released (Curse of Hircine 3.5 beta; I'll upgrade to Resurrected eventually).

- I didn't talk to Tyrellius after Jorundr told me about his plan for me to kill Arnora because I forgot to and when I went back into the dungeon he wasn't there.

 

Now for the problem. I went into Arnora's house and talked to her. Told her I was going to do things "Jorundr's way" and she began attacking me. So far so good. But then when she dies, regardless of whether I kill her inside her house (in a perfectly normal way, without doing anything to her corpse afterward) or I drag her outside and let bystanders kill her, I get the error message that one of the NPCs needed for the quest has died and the quest ends prematurely.

 

I've carefully read the UESP article about this quest and all logic indicates that killing her after I've told her I'm going to do so, while she's attacking me, is a valid course of action...

 

Even if, when she begins attacking, I use "setstage ms09 50" in the console to advance the quest to the point where she would already be dead and then I kill her, I still get the error message.

This is probably a issue due to a transformation. The quest may no longer recognize your progression. Even changing your Race can break certain mods. Bugs like this would be expected with Beta's and will not be instantly fixed by updating it. Roll back to a previous save without the Beta active.
