Hi all, I was too eager and entered Stormfist Castle before I received my invitation. Now that I am here officially and Janus wants me to find his white cat, I cannot. The cat spawning in the hallway before the kitchen will NOT trigger! I have tried walking in from different angles, closing and opening doors, retalking to people but nothing works.
Have I messed it up completely and need to restart the game? Or is there something I perhaps haven't thought of? I've put in 25 hours already so ideally I can salvage this. I do not have a save from before I entered stormfist castle the first time. Anythings helps!

It's strange, there are no hidden conditions for meeting the cat in the script. IF
NpcLeavesRegion(NPC_Hero, REGION_castle_arhu2)
AND
InRegion(NPC_Hero, REGION_castle_arhu1)
THEN
StartScene(7);
PROC
DoStartScene(7)
THEN
StartScriptFrame(NPC_Arhu, "Arhu castle run by");
IF
NpcSees(NPC_Hero, NPC_Arhu)
AND NOT
Triggered("Arhu meets Hero in castle")
THEN
Triggered("Arhu meets Hero in castle");
ShiftToNpc(NPC_Arhu);
LaunchTimer(ENGINE_GAME, "Arhu meet hero", 30);
LockStarted(4);
PROC
EndLock(4)
THEN
EndScene(7);
GoalCompleted;
IF
TimerFinished(ENGINE_GAME, "Arhu meet hero")
THEN
StartMonologue(ENGINE_GAME, "MONO_psst");
IF
MonologueEvent(ENGINE_GAME, "MONO_psst Ends")
THEN
SetAndStartDialog(NPC_Arhu, DIALOG_Arhu, 0);
IF
DialogEnds(DIALOG_Arhu, _, _)
THEN
ShiftToNpc(NPC_Hero);
EndScene(7);
GoalCompleted;
PROC
PROC_CompleteGoal("Arhu meet hero in castle")
THEN
GoalCompleted;
You've already been to the Dwarven Breath Inn and spoken to Wouter.

Hmm, Yes I met Wouter, came to the castle, sneaked in and talked to everyone, then went and did the quests to get my official invitation because I couldn't do anything here. Am I perhaps in the wrong place? I feel like I've walked everywhere in the castle and I can't leave it.
Others have said that he is supposed to appear in front of the kitchen, so that's why I'm lingering here. It's my first playthrough. I forgot to add, I've looked at a previous forum with someone with the same issue, and they were told they broke the game since they entered the castle prematurely so that's why I was asking again since it was from a while ago.

Looks like you actually broke the game, you weren't supposed to get into the castle without an invitation.

Hello, I am a little late to this discussion but I just did this part of the game for the first time last night.
Firstly, did you complete the quest for helping the cook wash dishes? I did this after over an hour of scouring the castle grounds and once I completed it, upon leaving and returning to the castle, the cat appeared in the hallway between Lela's room and the kitchen.
I don't know if this is exactly a prerequisite but its what happened in my game.
I hope this helps!

I hadn't at first but even after I finished the dishes I walked around the castle in and out around for like an hour, but it did not work for me  . I saw some previous person said they had to go clockwise and not counter clockwise in the hallway for it to work, so I even tried that a few times but I gave up because I missed playing and started a new save. Thanks for the reply! Since I entered the castle too early with my teleport cubes and talked to Janus before the invitation, I guess I messed it up.
