I was attacked by a blood dragon and an elder dragon outside of Mount Anthor. I killed both of them. The 1st one to go down was the blood dragon and i absorbed his soul. When i killed the elder one, despite approaching his carcass, nothing happened. Is there a bug, or is there a limit to the number of souls we can have in our inventory at any given time? Currently i have 19 dragon souls.

My fantasy story

 

"Man, in his discussions with other men about questions of religion, statecraft, geography, trade, has always reached a point in the discussion where it has seemed wise to reply to his opponent by disemboweling him or knocking his brains out."

 

My name is Thomas Hockenberry, Ph.D., and I think the "Ph.D." stands for "Pouring His Draft."

According to the UESPwiki page on Dragons in Skyrim, "you will occasionally fail to absorb a dragon's soul after killing one. This issue can possibly result from fast traveling, mounting a horse, looting a container, or engaging an NPC in dialogue the moment the dragon dies. Note that respawned dragons at dragon shrines do not yield dragon souls."
