Took the quest in new garand. Talked to chea in lannegar and then went to the cave with the ice dragon. Giles' remains aren't inside the chest in the ghosts room. Help appreciated.

Please provide some extra details so we can narrow down the possible issues:
1. Double check your journal and post the current status of the entry for the quest. It might be that you did the quest but had to reset and didn't talk to Chea again.

2. Confirm you didn't loot the chest on a previous run through the cavern (might have caused an issue)

3. The item doesn't have a special graphic if I recall correctly, so make sure you aren't overlooking it thinking its a regular skull.

Just trying to eliminate the obvious stuff before David has to look into the code, as there have been issues like this reported before but they are usually easy fixes.

There is a bug with turkish language devices and this quest.

Turkish has certain special character that is causing some scripts to fail. It is already fixed for next update, but if you want it to work now, switch your phone language to english and respawn the cave area. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yeah it has been driving me crazy for months. Solved it everywhere else but forgot the loot tables.

In the turkish alphabet you have the non-dotted "ı" character and the regular "i". Scripts are read by the game and converted to lowercase, so when an uppercase "I" was converted, it became a dotless "ı" in a turkish device, and then unrecognized by the game engine, which expects an "i".

sorry to all turkish fans and players for the inconvenience.
