Just finished the point in Act 1 after
rescuing, and in my case killing, Nere
. After talking to everyone, went to take a long rest but sleep is interrupted by
the event where the owl bear cub is having a nightmare
. It appears this event cannot be avoided at this point in my game.
After the event, character goes back to sleep, but at end of sleep the entire party is stuck asleep with notification that:
"Some of your companions remain deep in dreamful sleep and can't awaken yet."
There is nothing I can do to get past this point - I cannot change characters or initiate any action. I have dismissed all my companions prior to attempting a long rest and tried again, still same result. Since the event appears to be locked into occurring on my next long rest, I cannot bypass it either (if that is even the cause).
I have tried changing locations and reloading from earlier saves, but since I do not know the root cause, I don't know how far back I have to go in my save history to resolve - but at this point game progress is blocked.
