In Skyrim, I made another attempt to find my missing armour but I am seriously starting to suspect that some sort of bug ate it. I've visited all the places I can remember being after starting the whole nightingale business and a couple more, but my armour is nowhere to be found. I am pretty certain (but not 100%) that I stuffed in in a container where I didn't have things stored from before, so it wouldn't be hard to find (ironically), but the only items in that particular container are two pricey weapons.
I know I could just enchant some new pieces. I have everything but boots... Or I could reload an older save and replay the whole dang thing. But I don't feel like doing either and the whole thing has me rather put out.
I guess I'll go read a walk through of the quests I just did to see if I forgot some place I visited... and if not, I might as well play Kat instead. Or crochet.
EDIT: And after a quick run to Solitude (even though I knew I'd been there before changing armours) and reached the conclusion that no, Heljarchen really IS the most likely place I would have gone to at that point and I've already looked through the chest there twice and I have nowhere else to..... oh wait... I have a vague memory of just dropping a bunch of things on the floor.... Might the armour have been among those things?
Yep. Yep it was.
