So I don’t think the developers anticipated anyone breaking into the monastery before the appropriate questline for it. I found a hard lock as opposed to the other very hard locks that block entry into the monastery and managed to pick it. I got into the monastery and was told that I was trespassing but the monks didn’t do anything else besides tell me that I wasn’t a monk. I proceeded to rob every container in sight whether or not I was hidden and the monks did not react at all. Everything was fine until I decided to see what would happen if I tried the transcribing manuscripts thing. I didn’t have the quest for it and it let me do it for like 3 choices and then went to a loading screen that it never left until I closed the game 3 and a half hours later.
I just want to add that I am just sharing the experience. I am not looking for a fix for this or anything. The game did everything it could to say, “don’t go into the monastery.”
