Forcing Purity to start

[greyday01]

At the end of Glory of the Dead I could not drop the heads, cure myself, drop Wuuthrad or get the companions to leave Ysgramors tomb.

I eventually reset the quest C06, and setstage through each stage.

The companions immediately went home, I could drop the axe and I could cure myself.

I still can't drop the heads, get the dragonseeker quest, the totem quests or start the Purity quest.

I've been cycling through doing quests for Farkas, Vignor and Aela for a while. Getting boring. I really want to get Purity and lose the heads.

Is there any way to force Purity to start?

Is there a known load order glitch with this quest?

 

I tried getting a quest from Farkas, having him follow me to the hag's cave and back out, then finished his quest. Still no Purity.

 

I gave up. Used player.removeitem 2996F 3. To get rid of the heads. Then player.additem 2996F 1.

Now the head is droppable. The companions will just have to stay werewolves.
