Upon completing the Daedric quest for Meridia's Beacon, I slay the shade of the necrogent, then proceed to take Dawnbreaker.

I am transported into the air, and talk to Meridia. Same old same old. Problem is, when I fall back down, the system doesn't recognize the quest teleporting me up there, so I in turn die of falling to death.

I have tried unequiping my daedric armor, I have tried each dialog choice, even buffing my health, turning myself etherial BEFORE taking dawnstar, nothing works. Every time I fall and die when I'm supposed to... land? In all honesty I know there's a flash of light, and you're in front of her statue, but past that I don't know the exacts of how you get down there.

I have also refrained from looking, and looked down while falling, only to find that I fall southwest slightly of the actual shrine.

If anyone has an answer, it would be greatly appreciated. I need Dawnbreaker to complete the Oblivion Walker trophy, and have no save to revert to.
