Original Post — Direct link

Yesterday I was doing a quest called Contract: Recovery Investment, which I grabbed from one of Reda's kids.
These quests typically are only available for a period of time and disappear if you don't complete them in time.
This quest told me to rescue an NPC and lead it to safety. I went to rescue the NPC and then the quest expired before I could lead it to safety.
My problem is this: The quest is still in my log showing up as expired, and the old lady I rescued is following me around.
This persists through restarting the game and fast travelling.
Is there any way to abandon a quest from your log?

Hello there @PeeweesMainVein! Welcome to the forums 🙂

I'm sorry to hear that you've encountered trouble when rescuing a civilian during one of Reda's quests. Can you let us know what troubleshooting steps you have already tried? If you haven't already, I would suggest trying the following:

  • Accepting a new quest from Reda
  • Reloading your most recent save file
  • Fast-travelling to another country (such as Norway or Vinland) then returning to England


If the issue still persists, could you please send us a video that shows the following:

  • The expired quest in your quest log
  • The NPC that won't stop following you once you have left the restricted area the rescue took place in


We can then pass this along to the development team for further investigation.

Thanks! 😊

Hey @guest-U0j5heLv, welcome to Discussions! I am sorry to hear that you were having an issue with completing a quest provided to you by one of the Thousand Eyes agents.

From your more recent post, I understand that you were able to resolve the issue after the boar was set free - I'm glad to hear it! Should a similar issue occur for you again in the future, please provide us with an image or short video showing this so that we can take a closer look into this with you. Thank you! 🙂
