I recently killed a dragon (near the loving stone) and I didn't absorb the soul. I have two theories on why this is: 1) I didn't deal the killing blow, so it's not mine to absorb or 2) there were other hostiles around so the absorb action didn't take place.

Any findings or other theories?

most likely that's a bug, I experienced that the skeleton of a dragon I slew followed me through a quick travel

I like bumping rubber-like skeletons :) – Rafal Ziolkowski Feb 29 '12 at 21:50

after some random digging around in the console (assuming you're on pc) then to bypass this bug type in the command to set amount of dragon souls your player has "player.setav dragonsouls x"

yes, i am on a pc, but i was hoping someone else had a similar situation and could help me shed light on why this happened, or perhaps it's just a bug =) – Pithlit Nov 15 '11 at 3:32
