Thanks Raze. Tried emptying the dynamic folder but still didn't work.
Hmm, I have a guess as to what happened and all my fault.
I misplaced the exploding keg earlier, and used the trick where I dropped all of my items on the ground, copied the inv files from a save with just the keg, and then picked up all my items. I didn't know about the better method which you suggested I use for the strange dagger.
This means I had a save that had already visited Verdistis, but then overwrote the inv files from a save that had never visited there. My guess is this is causing key items to not appear not in Verdistis.
I deleted older saves, so I think I'll start over and be extra careful not to lose key items!
If only I could bring my awesome dagger with me (I tried bringing it into a new game and no dice...)
Thanks for the help
