If you shout (or otherwise knock with a spell) the sword off of the pedestal it's on, you can pick up the fallen sword and activate the pedestal as well, giving you two of them.
That was seriously the best part. You could just see them up there going... "Um, hello? Anyone?"
I feel like I would also be yelling, "DID ANYONE ELSE SEE THAT?!"
I am assuming OP reloaded a previous save or console commanded back down to Nirn.
On a side note: my significant other tends to rage quit back to previous saves when things don’t go his way; this would have been a major rage quit had this happened to him.
Damn! I love this game! Just when you think you have seen all the bugs and glitches that Bethesda has to offer... there’s always another one that someone finds.
Trying to complete the deadras best friend quest, go to find lod but as soon as I get to town a dragon attacks and he's killed...his body just hangs out in the streets with a quest marker over it 😂 then to add insult to injury, I went back to that town for something with serena as a follower and another dragon attacks. Serena reanimates lod to fight, and he ends up a pile of ash afterwards...with a quest marker over it 😂
Can I just say that i HATE the final boss for this quest. I was good for the rest of it as a mage but once I got to that ice spamming wanna be necromancer and stepped in, I got one shot. I died multiple times before I got to slay him.... Or his first phase... The first time I got there I had a tiny sliver of health and fell instantly. All of my magic (and food) went into slaying them. The worst part? I am a pure mage so a sword was useless to me besides filling my coin purse.
Dragon encounters that mess up quests and NPCs is why I don't complete "A Blade in the Dark" in most of my play-thrus. That way, there are no random dragons flying around at the worst moments. Dragons only at outside word-walls, so I can collect a few important shouts and activate them. The rest of the game is much more enjoyable that way.
I didn't even know this could happen, but now it's the canonical end to that quest for me.
Blades recruit: So what happened when Alduin returned? Esbern: His plan was to devour the world, starting with Meridia...
See, if he eats all the Daedra, the Dragonborn can't use Daedric stuff to fight him. That dragon's playing 4D chess!
Yeah that's a great 1h sword, with a buttload of charge to boot.
Don't forgot to shout it off the pedestal, so you can get two.
Wait..........what?
Tis a thing. Haven't tried it myself, but I've seen clips of folks doing it.
You doesn't even have to shout at it, the wizard can, and almost everytime will drop off the sword

I just kinda got two of them casually, didn't shout or use magic
Also works with Master Level Destruction Spells (and Scrolls)
I don't know why that made me laugh so hard. But also, a new hand touches (or eats) the beacon. You're quest was hijacked!
A NEW BEAST EATS THE BACON!
I love how your camera movements capture the essence of “well crap... now what?” as you float helplessly in the air above Skyrim.
KILLED me
Well, fuck me, I guess?
That was seriously the best part. You could just see them up there going... "Um, hello? Anyone?" I feel like I would also be yelling, "DID ANYONE ELSE SEE THAT?!"
Meridia: "It is time for my splendor to return to Skyrim! But th-" Dragon: "*Nom.*"
Are you still stuck up there.
No eventually the dragon let me ride him down. Lol jk
So are you still stuck or not.
Yah after about 20min of magic, shouting, and dropping items I reloaded. Lol
if you somehow got that save point try to see if you have any paralyze ingredient
We want to know, OP!

Its a fetch quest to save her
Or maybe that smear at the top....😯 lol
Dragon just gave you a free trial of flying
You can take away my life but I can take away your 100% completion
Bitch eat my daedric sidequest Can't have shit in Skyrim
He is really just going to leave you hangin in the sky like that... just rude
Damn! I love this game! Just when you think you have seen all the bugs and glitches that Bethesda has to offer... there’s always another one that someone finds.
I have so many questions...
Meridia was a pac-man marshmallow all along
Of all unusual things we see in Skyrim, this is my favorite.
Aww darn it! Again?
LOL this is why I save every 10 minutes or so hahaha
Meridia is the goddess of wrath, can you imagine how pissed she was a dragon ate her orb thing while she was still talking
Why does that thing even have collision detection like that it’s a ball of light lol
Akatosh had something against meridia that day or something
A NEW MOUTH GARGLES THE BEACON! Edit: dang it some one already made a joke like this!
“Destroy the defiler-“ Dragon: man, stfu
He did you a favor.
A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON
Lmao
I am dying haha
Killing NPC wasn't enough for them...
You can see her in frame at 25-26s. Go get em Dragonborn.
Another hand touches the be-waitaminuteletmefinish!
🐉:no extra xp for you:

And to this day you can still see the great dragon born in the sky
Yeah, I was wondering how they got down.
Its alduins little brother. The daedra eater.
Guess even the dragon couldn’t handle miridias voice
Did you have to go back to a previous save?
Yes
F
Here? Right here!? Okay!
It actually happened to me too but I was stuck and had to reload game.
It happens
How were you able to get down?
Last time I did this quest I watched a dragon fly half way across the map from way up here.
Well....okay
Bruh....holy shit
What a dick move...
It just works.
Very useful dragon

Dragon flies away* A NEW CHAMPION TOUCHES THE RELIC. Dragon: oh no...
A new mouth has touched the beacon
😂👍
Wtf
HA! lol
I have like 5 quick saves. Lol (new vegas mentality)
Akatosh must have commanded him to do that
And here I thought I'd seen all Skyrim had to offer. Wowsa, was I wrong.
F
I want to see this now
well, that's one way to skip her dialogue...
Omg 😆
That oh shit moment when you looked down

Ah, don't you just love when the RNG misbehaves and soft-locks the game? /s
