Aola doesn't examine box.

I'm not sure if this question was asked before, so please direct me to the post if it was.

So I am trying to do the Ornate Box quest, and I'm at the part where I show the box to the Aola priest. However, when I give it to him he says that he senses nothing from the box and gives it back from me. I don't see this mentioned in other walkthroughs so I was wondering if I am missing something. I went back to Shilandra and she told me she was busy. I am not sure if the quest is botched or I have to do something else.

Now I should mention that I lost the box somehow after trying to make space for my companions' inventory. So assuming it disappeared from the game, I used console commands to spawn the box. Even though I was able to follow through with the quest, I'm thinking maybe this has to do with the issue. But again, I'm not sure.

Any help is welcomed.

Where are you in the game? If you leave the Hive the box breaks. Or you opened it and released what was inside.

Oh well that explains a lot. I already left the Hive.

Alright thank you!
