If you use an escapipe in the castle dungeon instead of talking to Lena through the door, you freeze up story progression. The programmers left this softlock in the game and gave the king a helpful message. I edit out the prologue. For some reason 4 of the 6 knights in the throne room show ellipsis while the other 2 show "nothing unusual here". I returned to town and spotted the NPC still blocking the exit and Maia back in her room and completely unable to interact with. Notice the 2 knights guarding the dungeon stairs appearing as different NPCs but returning to normal (or not normal since you can't talk to them lol) after exiting and reentering. Is it a glitch or intentional that Lena suddenly appears after opening all 3 chests? Hmmm......
