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?
