I resolved the issue. You don't need aliases. Yes, they can be used, but you can make your references via dialogue. Those references can be 'getisid' or an alias. I used the Story Manager to start both quest 1 and 2. Each quest has its own dialogue. Since the dialogue was in Quest 2, I assumed it would advance the stage there. Finally, yes it worked. For what ever reason, the original script didn't work, I kept trying to re do it different methods, then put it back, now it works. Some of the declared variables were not used, but I didn't feel like removing them, in case I use them later. ;BEGIN FRAGMENT CODE - Do not edit anything between this and the end comment ;NEXT FRAGMENT INDEX 3 Scriptname TIF__03010293 Extends TopicInfo Hidden ;BEGIN FRAGMENT Fragment_2 Function Fragment_2(ObjectReference akSpeakerRef) Actor akSpeaker = akSpeakerRef as Actor ;BEGIN CODE ; ; StartQuest.Start() StartQuest.SetObjectivedisplayed(ObjectiveNum) StartQuest.SetStage(StageNum) ;END CODE EndFunction ;END FRAGMENT ;END FRAGMENT CODE - Do not edit anything between this and the begin comment Quest Property StartQuest Auto Int Property ObjectiveNum Auto Int Property StageNum Auto Location Property akLocation Auto Actor Property akActor1 Auto Actor Property akActor2 Auto

I already set up my aliases and they are not required to do this.

In Quest 1, Getowningquest() works. but when I use it in Quest 2, it does not.
