This occurred after reaching the newly constructed tower. The cutscene where the gods interrogate "The builder" proceeded as normal, I didn't skip this cut scene and everything played out as usual. The issue came when I was tasked with finding the builders paint, Loki wasn't with me but instead he was still disguised as Freya near the bridge to the tower. I've managed to get him to spawn eventually and opened the door to the room where the paint was held, after defeating the Joten guards I've gathered the last drop of Ymir's tears from the loot chest and I went (teleported) to the shrine and got the 5 skill points. When I went back to the cave Loki was gone and i couldn't progress the quest.

I tried to load a previous save but it was 2 hours behind in progress...

I hope that this info is useful, i'll update the thread if necessary.

I can see that this is a big issue... I'm looking at commentaries on YouTube that mention the same issue:
I can't get past the point of searching for the paint, I get to the room, go inside and the next bit won't trigger


God dang paint bucket!
