Description
### Describe the bug
When surviving through the vampiric power Last Breath's Mist while in torpor, the player is now permanently blinded and walking becomes extremely time-consuming, which is clearly a bug.
### Attach save file
[Jenifer-trimmed.tar.gz](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22672603/Jenifer-trimmed.tar.gz)
### Steps to reproduce
1. Load the save.
2. Enter torpor through the power menu.
3. Let the hulks that are just outside of the light radius kill you.
4. See that you are blinded and each step takes an ingame minute even if you cancel mist form.
### Expected behavior
I intend that triggering LBM fully cancels being in torpor and wakes up the player.
I first tried to fix it, but I have no idea about what could cause that. Making LBM cancel activities and remove the torpor effect through the LBM EOC gave no result.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Begin with the attached save file and reproduce the torpor death-prevention sequence using Last Breath's Mist. Trace the torpor and mist handling to identify why blindness and one-minute movement persist after activation; done means the player wakes fully and neither symptom remains.
